CLEARWATER, FL — March 13, 2025 - 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 fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

 

Recent Financial and Operating Highlights:

•

Reported total revenue of $14.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, driven by positive momentum in U.S. capital equipment and single-use handpiece sales growth

◦

Advanced Energy revenue exceeded expectations in the fourth quarter of 2024 at $12.1 million, which was roughly flat year-over-year and increased by more than 30% compared to $9.3 million in the third quarter of 2024.  This growth was driven by strong generator unit sales and U.S. single-use handpiece sales.

◦

OEM revenue of approximately $2.1 million, representing a decrease of 16% year-over-year.

•

Net loss attributable to stockholders decreased by $5.0 million, or 52%, in the fourth quarter of 2024 to $4.6 million, compared with a net loss attributable to stockholders of $9.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.

	•	Adjusted EBITDA loss decreased by $2.5 million, or 53%, to $2.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared with $4.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.
	•	Strengthened the balance sheet in the fourth quarter of 2024, including closing a $7.0 million registered direct offering with a healthcare-focused fund, and amended the Company's credit agreement with Perceptive Credit Holdings IV, LP ("Perceptive").  This amendment significantly reduced the Advanced Energy revenue covenants and added a maximum operating expense covenant of $40.0 million and $45.0 million for 2025 and 2026, respectively.
	•	Implemented a cost saving restructuring program that included an organizational reduction in force to better focus and streamline operations.  Under the organizational changes, the Company reduced its U.S. workforce by nearly 25%. The annualized future cost savings from the reduction in force is estimated to be approximately $4.3 million.  The Company incurred pre-tax charges of approximately $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, mostly represented as one-time severance expenditures and other employee termination benefits.  The Company has identified over $4.0 million of additional cost savings and currently anticipates operating expenses to be below $40.0 million in 2025.
	•	Submitted a 510(k) premarket notification to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") for the AYON™ Body Contouring System approximately 90 days ahead of schedule.  The AYON system is an all-in-one system that integrates advanced modalities to perform multiple functions seamlessly, removing unwanted fat, enhancing tissue contraction and addressing the full range of patient needs from contouring to aesthetic enhancement.  The Company plans to launch the AYON system in the back half of 2025, pending receipt of clearance from the FDA.

“We are pleased with our financial performance in the fourth quarter of 2024, which was partially driven by increased demand in the U.S. for our generators and single-use handpieces over the course of the past six months. This demand reflects the significant progress our team has made in ramping up the direct-to-consumer marketing program for the Renuvion system that has delivered significant reach, views, and positive PR beyond our expectations.  Additionally, the rapidly growing patient population using GLP-1's and the physicians treating loose skin post-weight loss represents a significant opportunity for us in the aesthetics market, and we believe Renuvion should be the standard of care for these patients.  Looking ahead in 2025, we aim to build on the early traction our commercial team has made addressing this potential new opportunity," said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer.

 

 

 

Mr. Goodwin continued, “We are excited to have submitted the 510(k) for the AYON Body Contouring System to the FDA, which our team accomplished months ahead of  schedule. We look forward to offering an early preview of the AYON system during The Aesthetic MEET, which is being held in Austin, Texas in late March. This is the premier industry event in the aesthetics space, and we are excited to introduce AYON to our customers and others in the industry. These activities complement our current plan to launch the system in the back half of 2025.”

Fourth Quarter 2024 Results:

 

Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2024, decreased to $14.2 million, compared to $14.7 million in the prior year period. Revenue for the Advanced Energy segment was flat at approximately $12.1 million. OEM segment revenue decreased to $2.1 million, compared with $2.5 million for the same period last year. Advanced Energy revenues increased due to sales of new generators and single-use handpieces in the U.S. and customer upgrades to the Apyx One Console internationally. These increases were offset by a lower average selling price of generators to domestic customers, fewer domestic customer upgrades to the Apyx One Console and a decrease in international sales of new generators. The decrease in OEM segment revenue was due to decreased sales volume to existing customers. Domestic revenue decreased 1% year-over-year to $10.6 million and international revenue decreased 8% year-over-year to $3.7 million.

 

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2024, increased to $9.0 million, compared with $8.9 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was 63.0%, compared to 60.9% in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit margins was primarily due to changes in both product mix and geographic mix within the Advanced Energy segment, with domestic sales comprising a higher percentage of total sales. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price of generators to domestic customers and customer mix within the OEM segment. 

 

 

Operating expenses decreased to $12.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $14.7 million in the prior year period. The decrease in operating expenses was driven by a $1.9 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, a $0.3 million decrease in research and development expenses, a $0.3 million decrease in professional services expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in salaries and related costs.

 

Other expense, net for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $1.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the $3.1 million loss on extinguishment of the MidCap Credit Agreement in the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

Income tax expense was $0.1 million for each of the three-month periods ended ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

Net loss attributable to stockholders was $4.6 million, or $0.12 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared with $9.6 million, or $0.28 per share, in the prior year period.

 

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $2.2 million and $4.7 million, respectively.

 

Full Year 2024 Results:

 

Total revenue for the full year ended December 31, 2024, decreased 8% to $48.1 million, compared to $52.3 million for 2023. Advanced Energy segment sales decreased 11% to $38.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $43.4 million for 2023. The Advanced Energy sales decrease was primarily due to lower sales of generators in both domestic and certain international markets as a result of economic uncertainty in the capital equipment market that is being experienced in the aesthetic space and a lower average selling price of generators to domestic customers as a result of these market conditions. These decreases were partially offset by increased volume of single-use handpieces globally and sales of Apyx One Console upgrades internationally. The OEM segment revenue increased 6% to $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $9.0 million in 2023. The increase in OEM segment revenue was due to increased sales volume to existing customers. Domestic revenue decreased 11% year-over-year to $34.0 million and international revenue was essentially flat year-over-year at approximately $14.0 million.

 

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2024, decreased to $29.4 million, compared with $33.8 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2024, was 61.0%, compared to 64.5% in the prior year. The decrease in gross profit margins was primarily attributable to a decrease in the average selling price of generators to domestic customers, changes in the sales mix between the Company's two segments, with the OEM segment comprising a higher percentage of total sales and geographic mix within the Advanced Energy segment, with international sales comprising a higher percentage of total sales.

 

Operating expenses decreased to $48.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $53.7 million in the prior year. The decrease in operating expenses was driven by a $3.3 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, a $1.7 million decrease in salaries and related costs, a $0.4 million decrease in research and development expenses and a $0.1 million decrease in professional services expenses.

 

Other expense, net for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $4.5 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher net interest expense on higher average outstanding borrowings compared to the prior year. This was partially offset by the $3.1 million loss on extinguishment of the MidCap Credit Agreement in 2023.

 

Income tax expense (benefit) was $0.3 million  and $(2.4 million) for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in the expense from the prior year tax benefit is primarily due to the reversal of uncertain tax positions upon completion of the IRS audit of tax returns for the 2018, 2019 and 2020 years in January 2023.

 

Net loss attributable to stockholders was $23.5 million, or $0.66 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $18.7 million, or $0.54 per share, in the prior year.

 

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $14.3 million and $13.4 million, respectively.

The Company refined its financial guidance targets for the year ending December 31, 2025:

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET LOSS TO NON-GAAP ADJUSTED EBITDA
(Unaudited)

 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure

 

The Company has presented the following non-GAAP financial measure in this press release: adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as its reported net loss attributable to stockholders (GAAP) plus income tax expense (benefit), interest income and expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and other significant non-recurring items.

 

We present the following non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA because we believe such measure is a useful indicator of our operating performance.   Our management uses adjusted EBITDA principally as a measure of our operating performance and believes that this measure is useful to investors because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We also believe that this measure is useful to our management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period.  The non-GAAP financial measure presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or preferable to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
