Second Quarter 2022 Financial Summary:

Total revenue of $10.3 million, down 8% year-over-year.

Second Quarter 2022 Operating Summary:

On April 4, 2022, the Company announced the submission of a 510(k) premarket notification (“510(k) submission”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The 510(k) submission was intended to expand the Company’s general indication to include a specific indication for the use of the Renuvion APR Handpiece in subcutaneous dermatological and aesthetic procedures to improve the appearance of lax (loose) skin in the neck and submental region.
On May 26, 2022, the Company announced it received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the use of the Renuvion Dermal Handpiece for specific dermal resurfacing procedures. The Renuvion Dermal Handpiece is indicated for dermatological procedures for the treatment of moderate to severe wrinkles and rhytides, limited to patients with Fitzpatrick skin types I, II or III.
On June 2, 2022, the FDA updated the Medical Device Safety Communication (“MDSC”) related to the Company’s Advanced Energy products to recognize this new 510(k) clearance.

Highlights & Developments Subsequent to Quarter End:

On July 8, 2022, the Company announced that the results of the pivotal Phase II of its Investigational Device Exemption (“IDE”) study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the Renuvion device to improve the appearance of lax skin in the neck and submental region are now available on ClinicalTrials.gov.
On July 18, 2022, the Company announced it received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the use of the Renuvion APR Handpieces for certain skin contraction procedures. The Renuvion APR Handpieces are now indicated for use in subcutaneous dermatological and aesthetic procedures to improve the appearance of lax (loose) skin in the neck and submental region.
On July 21, 2022, the FDA updated the MDSC related to the Company’s Advanced Energy products to recognize this new 510(k) clearance.
On July 27, 2022, the Company announced its first reporting of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) data via a newly released tear sheet. This data provides context to the Company’s ESG goals and priorities important to its business and stakeholders.

Management Comments:

“Our total revenue in the second quarter decreased 8% year-over-year, due to the impact of the Medical Device Safety Communication on global sales of our Advanced Energy products,” said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Internationally, we saw softer-than-expected Advanced Energy generator and handpiece demand from distributors in select countries, which represented the largest contributor to the 16% year-over-year decrease in global Advanced Energy sales during the quarter. Specifically, Advanced Energy international generator and handpiece sales decreased more than 45% and 30% year-over-year, respectively. In the U.S., we were pleased by our performance during the quarter, which exceeded our expectations. While we continued to experience slower U.S. sales of our Advanced Energy products as anticipated, we saw material improvement in our business trends during each month of the quarter.”

Mr. Goodwin continued: “We are updating our guidance today to reflect the domestic and international performance in our Advanced Energy business during the second quarter, and revised expectations for the second half of 2022. Our team has made strong progress in recent months, securing 510(k) clearances for specific indications related to the use of our Renuvion technology in dermal resurfacing procedures and to improve the appearance of lax, or loose, skin. These clearances provide important validation for the safety and effectiveness of our Renuvion technology and expand our addressable market opportunity to include approximately 200,000 wrinkle reduction procedures and 200,000 neck contouring procedures performed in the U.S. annually. We are also pleased that the FDA updated the Medical Device Safety Communication to reflect our receipt of these new 510(k) clearances. We look forward to entering full commercialization for these new indications by the end of 2022, and continue to believe that the headwinds experienced during the second quarter will ultimately prove to be transitory.”

Second Quarter 2022 Results:

Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased $0.9 million, or 8% year-over-year, to $10.3 million, compared to $11.2 million in the prior year period. Advanced Energy segment sales decreased $1.6 million, or 16% year-over-year, to $8.4 million, compared to $10.0 million in the prior year period. OEM segment sales increased $0.7 million, or 55% year-over-year to $1.9 million, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year period. For the second quarter of 2022, revenue in the United States increased $0.6 million, or 8% year-over-year, to $7.9 million, and international revenue decreased $1.5 million, or 39% year-over-year, to $2.3 million. The year-over-year decrease in Advanced Energy revenue was due to decreased global demand for the Company’s handpieces and generators following the FDA Safety Communication on March 14, 2022. The year-over-year increase in OEM revenue was driven by higher sales to existing customers, including Symmetry Surgical, as well as sales related to the completion of the development portion of some of the Company’s OEM development agreements.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2022, decreased $0.6 million, or 8% year-over-year, to $6.9 million, compared to $7.5 million in the prior year period. Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was 67.2%, compared to 67.1% in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit margins for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from the prior year period was primarily attributable to geographic mix within the Company’s Advanced Energy segment, with domestic sales comprising a higher percentage of total sales and the mix of newer product models as the Company obtains registrations allowing these products to be introduced into the markets it serves.

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased $1.3 million, or 11% year-over-year, to $12.9 million, compared to $11.6 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in operating expenses was driven by a $0.5 million increase in salaries and related costs, a $0.5 million increase in professional services and a $0.3 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $0.1 million.

For the first half of 2022, revenue in the United States increased $2.5 million, or 20% year-over-year, to $15.5 million, and international revenue increased $0.4 million, or 6% year-over-year, to $7.3 million.

Full Year 2022 Financial Outlook:

The Company is updating financial guidance for the year ending December 31, 2022 to:

Total revenue in the range of $51.0 million to $56.4 million, representing growth of approximately 5% to 16% year-over-year, compared to total revenue of $48.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s prior guidance range for total revenue was $52.5 million to $59.0 million, representing growth of 8% to 22% year-over-year.

Total revenue guidance assumes:
Advanced Energy revenue in the range of $44.5 million to $49.4 million, representing growth of approximately 4% to 15% year-over-year, compared to Advanced Energy revenue of $43.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s prior guidance range for Advanced Energy revenue was $46.0 million to $52.0 million, representing growth of 7% to 21% year-over-year.
The Advanced Energy revenue range reflects potential negative impacts on global new customer adoption, and on procedure-related demand for handpieces, as a result of the FDA Medical Device Safety Communication on March 14, 2022.
The Advanced Energy revenue range continues to assume contributions from the initial commercial launches for new specific clinical indications for dermal resurfacing procedures and procedures to improve the appearance of lax skin.
The Advanced Energy revenue range continues to assume that international growth is driven by demand in existing international markets.
OEM revenue in the range of $6.5 million to $7.0 million, which is unchanged from the Company's prior guidance, representing growth of 18% to 27% year-over-year, compared to $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure

We present the following non-GAAP measure because we believe such measure is a useful indicator of our operating performance. Our management uses this non-GAAP measure 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.
