This included strong performance from our Emerging Products, which grew 42% and reached $82.7 millionfor the year. This trend, supports our transition into a higher growth, higher margin business. We delivered double-digit Aesthetic product revenue growth, highlighted by strong international results from the APAC and EMEA regions. In North America, our business was down slightly in the fourth quarter as we laid the groundwork for improved performance in 2017. As a result of the positive mix shift and our international growth, operating margin continued to increase despite continued investments in North American sales and marketing infrastructure. Our strong financial performance resulted in doubling non-GAAP net income per share to $0.14in the fourth quarter. We generated $6.2 millionin cash from operations in the fourth quarter and ended the year with a strong balance sheet with $86.4 millionin cash and no debt.'

Fourth quarter 2016 revenue did not include any sales from the Company's dental laser subsidiary, which was sold in May 2016.
