Company & revenue
About Align Technology, Inc.
Primary reporting period: 2025-12-31 · Research updated Oct 12, 2026. A research update is not a new financial filing.
Who they are
Align Technology, Inc. is a medical technology enterprise that develops, produces, and markets its leading products: Invisalign transparent dental aligners and iTero digital intraoral scanners, along with related services. These offerings serve a wide range of dental professionals, including orthodontists, general dentists, and those specializing in restorative and cosmetic dentistry. The company's operations are divided into two main business units: "Clear Aligner" and "Scanners and Services."
How they make money
Align Technology designs and sells Invisalign clear aligners and Vivera retainers, as well as iTero intraoral scanners and exocad CAD/CAM software and services. Its FY2025 Form 10-K reports Clear Aligner and Imaging Systems and CAD/CAM Services as its two operating segments. Dental professionals are key direct customers; the company depends on treatment adoption and digital dental workflows.
Brands & revenue mix
No separate brand or brand-level revenue disclosure was confirmed in the reviewed sources. This does not mean the company has no brands.
Product / operating segments
No reconciled product or operating-segment revenue breakdown is available for the current research period. Company-wide revenue remains separate from segment disclosure.
Geographic revenue
No reconciled geographic revenue breakdown was confirmed for the current research period.
Customer types
Customer categories were not separately identified in the reviewed source set.
Customer concentration
No quantified customer-concentration disclosure is available in the current saved research.
Strengths
- Integrated dental workflow — Research interpretation: aligners, scanners and digital treatment-planning software support an interconnected provider workflow; product adoption must still be measured.Source
Risks
- Treatment demand and competition — Research interpretation: discretionary orthodontic treatment demand, competitive clear aligner offerings and equipment spending may affect growth.Source

Momentum & Volatility Signals
Two different market-behavior signals. Momentum measures direction and trend strength. Volatility measures how large and unstable the price moves are, regardless of direction.
Neutral / mixed momentum
Low movement
A high momentum score means price has been trending upward with confirming short- and medium-term strength. A low score means downward or weakening momentum.
A high volatility score means larger, less stable price swings. It can happen while a stock is rising or falling, so high volatility is not automatically bullish or bearish.
Important: the volatility score above is based on realized price volatility. Implied volatility (IV) comes from options prices and represents the market's expected future movement. Wall Street Score will keep IV separate and will only display it when a verified options-chain feed is available.
