[Envista](https://www.bullished.co/tag/nvst/), which makes dental implants, braces, imaging systems and consumables, [raised its 2026 adjusted earnings guidance](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0001757073/000175707326000085/nvst-ex991x10226xworkingfi.htm?ref=bullished.co) to $1.54 to $1.58 a share, from $1.50 to $1.55, after third-quarter adjusted EPS rose 25% to $0.40\. Headline GAAP net income of $508 million was inflated by a $428 million non-cash gain.

## A $428 million gain flatters the bottom line

GAAP net income came to [$508 million](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/envista-reports-third-quarter-2026-results-302929688.html?ref=bullished.co), against a $30 million loss a year earlier. Diluted GAAP EPS was $3.11\. The company said a foreign currency translation gain added $428 million to operating profit and $2.62 to diluted EPS, before tax effects.

The gain came from releasing cumulative translation adjustments as certain legal entities were dissolved in a legal entity simplification. It had no cash impact and no effect on adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income or adjusted EPS, the company said.

Sales were [$691 million](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/envista-reports-third-quarter-2026-results-302929688.html?ref=bullished.co), with core sales growth of 2.7% (sales excluding acquisitions, discontinued products and currency swings).

## Adjusted margins widen, both segments grow

Adjusted EBITDA rose 9% to $106 million, a 15.3% margin, up 80 basis points (0.8 percentage points) from a year earlier. Adjusted gross margin expanded 20 basis points, which the company credited to contributions from the Envista Business System, its internal operating program.

Equipment & Consumables core sales grew 4.1% and Specialty Products & Technologies 2.0%. Envista sells more than 30 brands, including Nobel Biocare, Ormco, DEXIS and Kerr, to dentists, orthodontists and dental labs.

CEO Paul Keel said the company is "converting broad-based topline performance into even stronger earnings growth."

## Guidance, buybacks and the call

Envista also narrowed 2026 core sales growth guidance to 3.75% to 4.25%, from 3.5% to 4.5%, and lifted its adjusted EBITDA growth range to 12.5% to 14%, from 11% to 14%. Free cash flow conversion stays at about 100%.

Third-quarter free cash flow was $63 million, versus $68 million a year earlier. The company repurchased 386 thousand shares for about $10 million and has roughly $273 million of buyback capacity left.

Management discusses the quarter and outlook on an investor call at 2:00 p.m. PT Wednesday, with a slide presentation on its website.
