About this update from Apyx Medical Corporation

CLEARWATER, Fla. --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Apyx Medical Corporation (NASDAQ:APYX) (“Apyx Medical;” the “Company”), the manufacturer of a proprietary helium plasma and radiofrequency platform technology marketed and sold as Renuvion®, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024 ; and updated its financial expectations for the full year ending December 31, 2024 . Second Quarter 2024 Financial Summary : Total revenue of $12.1 million , a decrease of 10% year-over-year. Advanced Energy revenue of $9.8 million , a decrease of 17% year-over-year. OEM revenue of $2.4 million , an increase of 29% year-over-year. Net loss attributable to stockholders of $6.6 million , an increase of $5.6 million , or 560%, year-over-year. Net loss for the second quarter of 2023 included a $2.7 million gain on the sale-leaseback the Company’s Clearwater, FL facility. Adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.3 million , an increase of $2.7 million , or 166%, year-over-year. Second Quarter 2024 Operating Summary: On April 11, 2024 , the Company announced that new data and treatment insights were showcased at the Company’s Renuvion Users’ Summit. On May 9, 2024 , the Company announced the retirement of Andrew Makrides as Chairman of the Board, after serving the Company in this position since 1982. The Board of Directors appointed Stavros Vizirgianakis to serve as Chairman of the Board, effective May 7, 2024 . On June 26, 2024 , the Company announced the launch of the “Renewing Lives” campaign, a nationwide, life-changing give-back program that will provide Renuvion treatments to people who can most benefit from this advanced medical technology to improve their physical appearance and mental health. “As we had anticipated, our Advanced Energy sales performance in the second quarter continued to reflect the challenging environment in the cosmetic surgery market that our industry has observed in recent quarters,” said Charlie Goodwin , President and Chief Executive Officer. “As expected, global sales of our Advanced Energy generators remained impacted as prospective surgeon customers continued to delay investments in new capital equipment, given concerns about broader macro-economic uncertainty. Despite these challenges, we were pleased to deliver strong growth in global sales of our Advanced Energy handpieces, which increased more than 20% year-over-year in both the U.S. and internationally.” Mr. Goodwin continued: “Our updated financial guidance reflects our expectation that global Advanced Energy generator sales will remain paced this year by the challenging environment in our industry, and we continue to expect this headwind will be moderated by growth in sales of our handpieces. Importantly, our updated guidance now assumes low double-digit growth in global handpiece sales on a full year basis. With Renuvion’s ability to deliver impressive and durable results for patients, its’ status as the only FDA-cleared device for the coagulation of subcutaneous soft tissues following liposuction for aesthetic body contouring, and its’ evidence-based support from over 90 clinical publications, we remain uniquely positioned in our industry to capitalize on the demand for body contouring procedures going forward. We remain focused on executing our growth strategy and controlling our expenses as we continue to tap into this multi-billion dollar global market opportunity.” “During our recent strategic review with the Board and management, we identified a number of initiatives to improve stockholder value and create a longer runway for the company to execute our plan to drive profitable growth going forward,” said Stavros Vizirgianakis , Chairperson of the Board of Directors. “Our Renuvion technology is best in class, and we believe that over time there will be significant tailwinds to drive the treatment of loose skin.” Mr. Vizirgianakis continued: “In the near term, through our recent collaboration with Kaplow Communications we remain focused on promoting our best-in-class Renuvion technology. Our recent direct to consumer and B2B marketing initiatives and enhanced field presence will help drive increased utilization and awareness within the aesthetics space. We also remain focused on managing our operating expenses and our cash burn, while we improve our performance and prepare to introduce our revolutionary new platform in the near future. I am confident that management is fully aligned with the interests of stockholders and ready to execute our strategic plan.” The following tables present revenue by reportable segment and geography: Three Months Ended June 30 , Increase/Decrease Six Months Ended June 30 , Increase/Decrease (In thousands) 2024 2023 $ Change % Change 2024 2023 $ Change % Change Advanced Energy $ 9,766 $ 11,722 $ (1,956 ) (16.7 )% $ 17,219 $ 21,412 $ (4,193 ) (19.6 )% OEM 2,383 1,847 536 29.0 % 5,174 4,299 875 20.4 % Total $ 12,149 $ 13,569 $ (1,420 ) (10.5 )% $ 22,393 $ 25,711 $ (3,318 ) (12.9 )% Three Months Ended June 30 , Increase/Decrease Six Months Ended June 30 , Increase/Decrease (In thousands) 2024 2023 $ Change % Change 2024 2023 $ Change % Change Domestic $ 8,687 $ 10,137 $ (1,450 ) (14.3 )% $ 15,666 $ 19,008 $ (3,342 ) (17.6 )% International 3,462 3,432 30 0.9 % 6,727 6,703 24 0.4 % Total $ 12,149 $ 13,569 $ (1,420 ) (10.5 )% $ 22,393 $ 25,711 $ (3,318 ) (12.9 )% Second Quarter 2024 Results : Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , decreased $1.4 million , or 10% year-over-year, to $12.1 million , compared to $13.6 million in the prior year period. Advanced Energy segment revenue decreased $2.0 million , or 17% year-over-year, to $9.8 million . OEM segment revenue increased $0.5 million , or 29% year-over-year, to $2.4 million , compared to $1.8 million in the prior year period. The decrease in Advanced Energy revenue was primarily due to lower sales of generators in both domestic and some international markets as a result of economic uncertainty in the capital equipment market within the aesthetic space. These decreases were partially offset by increased sales of single-use handpieces globally. The increase in OEM segment revenue was due to increases in sales volume to existing customers, including Symmetry Surgical under the Company’s 10-year generator manufacturing and supply agreement. Domestic revenue decreased $1.5 million , or 14% year-over-year, to $8.7 million , and international revenue increased 1% year-over-year to $3.5 million . Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , decreased $1.8 million , or 19% year-over-year, to $7.5 million , compared to $9.3 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , was 61.7%, compared to 68.4% in the prior year period. The decrease in gross profit margins was primarily attributable to changes in sales mix between the OEM and Advanced Energy segments, with the OEM segment comprising a higher percentage of revenue and geographic mix within the Advanced Energy segment, with international revenue comprising a higher percentage of total revenue. Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , decreased $0.2 million , or 1% year-over-year, to $13.0 million , compared to $13.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease in operating expenses was driven by a $0.5 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in salaries and related costs. These decreases were partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in professional services expenses and a $0.1 million increase in research and development expenses. Other (expense) income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $(1.0) million and $0.3 million , respectively. The change was driven primarily by increased interest expense on higher outstanding borrowings compared to the prior year period. Income tax expense was $0.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Net loss attributable to stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , was $6.6 million , or $0.19 per share, compared to $1.0 million , or $0.03 per share, in the prior year period. Included in net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was a $2.7 million gain on the sale-leaseback of the Company’s Clearwater, FL facility. Adjusted EBITDA loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $4.3 million and $1.6 million , respectively.

OEM segment sales increased $0.9 million , or 20% year-over-year, to $5.2 million , compared to $4.3 million in the prior year period. For the first six months of 2024, revenue in the United States decreased $3.3 million , or 18% year-over-year, to $15.7 million , and international revenue was consistent with the prior year period, at approximately $6.7 million . The Advanced Energy sales decrease was driven by lower sales of generators in both domestic and some international markets as a result of economic uncertainty in the capital equipment market within the aesthetic space. These decreases were partially offset by increased sales of single-use handpieces globally. The increase in OEM segment revenue was due to increases in sales volume to existing customers, including Symmetry Surgical under the Company’s 10-year generator manufacturing and supply agreement. Net loss attributable to stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $14.1 million , or $0.41 per share, compared to $4.5 million , or $0.13 per share, in the prior year period. The six months ended June 30, 2023 was favorably impacted by $5.0 million in items that did not recur in the current year period, consisting of a $2.3 million income tax benefit and a $2.7 million gain on the sale-leaseback of the Company’s Clearwater, FL facility, which were recognized in the first and second quarters of 2023, respectively.
