Apyx Medical Corporation Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Updates Full Year 2023 Financial Outlook

Advanced Energy Sales increased 39% year-over-year in Q3

Apyx Medical Corporation (NASDAQ:APYX) (the “Company”), the manufacturer of a proprietary helium plasma and radiofrequency technology marketed and sold as Renuvion®, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023, and updated its financial expectations for the full year ending December 31, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Summary:

  • Total revenue of $12.0 million, up 31% year-over-year.
    • Advanced Energy revenue of $9.8 million, up 39% year-over-year.
    • OEM revenue of $2.1 million, up 5% year-over-year.
  • Net loss attributable to stockholders of $4.6 million, down $1.1 million, or 20%, year-over-year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.1 million, down $0.8 million, or 21%, year-over-year.

Highlights Subsequent to Quarter End

  • On November 9, 2023, the Company announced a new, five-year credit agreement with Perceptive Credit Holdings IV, LP (“Perceptive”), an affiliate of Perceptive Advisors. The credit agreement provides for a facility of up to $45.0 million consisting of senior, secured term loans. The Perceptive credit facility matures on November 8, 2028 and includes an initial loan of $37.5 million and a delayed draw loan of $7.5 million. The initial loan of $37.5 million was fully funded on November 8, 2023, with approximately $11.0 million of the proceeds used to satisfy all obligations under the Company’s MidCap credit agreement, as well as approximately $2.5 million of transaction fees and other expenses related to the transactions.
  • On November 9, 2023, the Company and Tara Semb, Chief Financial Officer, announced that Ms. Semb would be leaving the Company in order to pursue other opportunities. Ms. Semb’s departure is not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter, including matters related to the Company’s operations, policies, practices, financial reporting or controls. The Board of Directors initiated a formal search process which has resulted in the Company identifying her successor. Ms. Semb plans to continue in her position as Chief Financial Officer until her successor is formally appointed.

Management Comments:

“We delivered Advanced Energy revenue growth in the third quarter of 39% year-over-year, fueled primarily by global sales of our generators, which increased by more than 65% both in the U.S. and internationally, along with significant contributions from handpiece sales as well,” said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our Advanced Energy sales performance benefited from multiple factors, including our recently obtained FDA 510(k) clearances for new clinical indications, the commercialization of our next-generation Apyx One Generator and strong demand from distributors in key geographic regions. We complemented our revenue performance with continued profitability improvements as well, reducing our net loss attributable to stockholders and adjusted EBITDA by 20% and 21% year-over-year, respectively.”

Mr. Goodwin continued: “Ultimately, we did not see the level of revenue performance in our Advanced Energy segment that we had anticipated in the third quarter. We believe this was due to a combination of factors, including stronger-than-anticipated seasonality, surgeon reticence to purchase capital equipment given the current financing environment and sales and marketing team execution that did not meet our expectations. Our updated guidance reflects both our third quarter results and our revised expectations for the balance of the year. We are committed to achieving our stated expectations for 2023 by executing our growth strategy in the fourth quarter, while continuing to leverage our recent progress in securing new 510(k) clearances, introducing new products and raising awareness of the safety and efficacy of our Renuvion technology for cosmetic procedures at both the surgeon and patient level. Subsequent to quarter end, we capitalized on the multiple regulatory, operating and commercial milestones achieved in 2023 to secure a new credit facility with Perceptive Advisors, providing us with additional capital – with more favorable terms overall than our prior agreement – which significantly strengthens our balance sheet and enhances our financial flexibility.”

Third Quarter 2023 Results:

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $2.9 million, or 31% year-over-year, to $12.0 million, compared to $9.1 million in the prior year period. Advanced Energy segment sales increased $2.8 million, or 39% year-over-year, to $9.8 million. OEM segment sales increased $0.1 million, or 5% year-over-year to $2.1 million. The increase in Advanced Energy sales was primarily due to growth in domestic sales, which was driven by sales of the Company's recently launched Apyx One Console to both new and existing customers. Advanced Energy sales also benefited from growth in international generator and handpiece sales. The increase in OEM sales was due to increased sales volume to existing customers. For the third quarter of 2023, revenue in the United States increased $1.7 million, or 24% year-over-year, to $8.7 million, and international revenue increased $1.2 million, or 57% year-over-year, to $3.3 million.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased $2.2 million, or 39% year-over-year, to $8.0 million, compared to $5.8 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was 66.6%, compared to 63.2% in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit margins for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from the prior year period is primarily attributable to changes in the sales mix between the Company's two segments, with the Advanced Energy segment comprising a higher percentage of total sales and sales mix within our Advanced Energy segment. These increases were partially offset by geographic mix within the Advanced Energy segment, with international sales comprising a higher percentage of total sales, and by product mix.

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $1.1 million, or 9% year-over-year, to $12.6 million, compared to $11.5 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in operating expenses was driven by a $0.8 million increase in salaries and related costs, a $0.2 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $0.2 million increase in research and development expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in professional services.

Income tax (benefit) expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $(0.3) million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Net loss attributable to stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $4.6 million, or $0.13 per share, compared to $5.8 million, or $0.17 per share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $3.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

First Nine Months of 2023 Results:

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased $5.8 million, or 18%, to $37.7 million, compared to $31.9 million in the prior year period. Advanced Energy segment sales increased $5.0 million, or 19% year-over-year, to $31.2 million, compared to $26.3 million in the prior year period. OEM segment sales increased $0.8 million, or 14% year-over-year, to $6.4 million, compared to $5.6 million in the prior year period. For the first nine months of 2023, revenue in the United States increased $5.2 million, or 23% year-over-year, to $27.7 million, and international revenue increased $0.6 million, or 7% year-over-year, to $10.0 million. The increase in Advanced Energy sales was driven by domestic sales of the Company’s recently launched Apyx One Console to both new and existing customers. The increase in OEM sales was due to increased sales volume to existing customers, as well as incremental new sales upon the commencement of the supply arrangement related to the completion of the development portion of some of the Company’s OEM development agreements.

Net loss attributable to stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $9.1 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to $17.1 million, or $0.50 per share, in the prior year period. Included in net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was a $2.7 million gain on the sale-leaseback of our Clearwater, FL facility.
