BIOLASE Completes Sale of Last WaterLase MD Turbo Laser Systems Repurchased From Schein
Strong Demand for WaterLase Continues
IRVINE, CA--(Marketwire - Jan 8, 2013) - BIOLASE, Inc. (
The Company had initially planned to use a portion of the purchased Schein inventory as a source of parts to service its large installed base of MD Turbo laser systems. However, due to the high demand for the equipment, all of the re-purchased laser systems were ultimately sold. BIOLASE repurchased the units from Schein at a very advantageous price under a February 2012 agreement and sold them throughout the last three quarters at margins consistent with its other laser products.
Federico Pignatelli, Chairman and CEO of BIOLASE, said, "The strong demand for these WaterLase MD Turbo laser systems over the past three quarters along with a period of consistent growth in the direct sales of our flagship WaterLase iPlus™ to end users in North America, demonstrate the benefits and effectiveness of having a wide range of WaterLase products."
About WaterLase
BIOLASE's patented WaterLase technology combines its proprietary 2,780nm YSGG laser energy, air, and water that all emanate from its patented hand piece to symbiotically excite water molecules from within both the spray and the target tissue. This results in a biological ablation of both hard- and soft-tissue. Currently, BIOLASE offers several variations of WaterLase laser systems, including the flagship iPlus, the mid-priced MDX™ 450 and 300, and lower priced certified pre-owned MD Turbos.
