Apyx Medical Corporation Reports First Quarter 2021 Financial Results and Updates Full Year 2021 Outlook

Advanced Energy Sales increased 92% year-over-year in Q1

Apyx Medical Corporation (NASDAQ:APYX) (the “Company”), a maker of medical devices and supplies and the developer of Helium Plasma Technology, marketed and sold as Renuvion® in the cosmetic surgery market and J-Plasma® in the hospital surgical market, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2021, and updated financial expectations for the full year ending December 31, 2021.

First Quarter 2021 Financial Summary:

  • Total revenue of $8.6 million, up 72.9% year-over-year.
    • Advanced Energy revenue of $7.7 million, up 92.2% year-over-year.
    • OEM revenue of $1.0 million, down 3.3% year-over-year.
  • Net loss of $4.9 million, compared to net loss of $2.0 million for the first quarter of 2020. Net loss in the first quarter of 2020 included an income tax benefit of $4.9 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.4 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA loss of $5.8 million for the first quarter of 2020.
  • As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $39.5 million, compared to $41.9 million as of December 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had working capital of $53.3 million, including expected cash tax refunds of approximately $7.5 million the Company expects to receive during 2021 related to the net operating loss carrybacks resulting from the 2020 CARES Act.

Management Comments:

“I would like to commend our team on their exceptional efforts during the quarter, which enabled us to achieve first quarter revenue results that exceeded our expectations, driven by strong global sales of our Advanced Energy products,” said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In spite of the continued impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued to see healthy utilization of our Helium Plasma Technology in the U.S. and key international markets, resulting in total handpiece growth in excess of 100% year-over-year. We were also excited to see global generator sales increase by more than 80% year-over-year, which was driven by strong demand in both the U.S. and our existing international markets. Importantly, we complemented our strong global sales performance in the first quarter with notable margin improvements, due in part to our efforts to reduce the per unit manufacturing costs of our Advanced Energy handpieces and managing our discretionary spending appropriately given the current operating environment.”

Mr. Goodwin continued: “We are raising our full year 2021 financial guidance today to reflect the encouraging adoption and utilization trends that we have seen and confidence in our outlook for the balance of the year. With a strong balance sheet, a multi-billion dollar potential market opportunity and innovative technology supported by an expanding portfolio of evidence, Apyx Medical remains very well-positioned to deliver strong revenue growth and improving financial performance. We look forward to delivering exceptional performance as the world continues to recover from the effects of COVID, while continuing to lay the foundation for our future growth.”

First Quarter 2021 Results:

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021, increased $3.6 million, or 72.9%, to $8.6 million, compared to $5.0 million in the prior year period. Advanced Energy segment sales increased approximately $3.7 million, or 92.2% year-over-year, to $7.7 million, compared to approximately $4.0 million in the prior year period. OEM segment sales decreased 3.3% year-over-year, with approximately $1.0 million in each period. For the first quarter 2021, revenue in the United States increased $1.9 million, or 53.8% year-over-year, to $5.6 million, and international revenue increased $1.7 million, or 122.8% year-over-year, to $3.1 million. In the first quarter of 2021, we saw increased global demand for both our handpieces and generators. While demand for generators in certain geographic regions continues to be affected by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced strong sales volumes overall during the first quarter.

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2021, increased $2.9 million, or 96.4% year-over-year, to $5.9 million, compared to $3.0 million in the prior year period. Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2021, was 67.8%, compared to 59.7% for the same period in 2020. The increase in profit margins for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from the prior year period is primarily attributable to sales mix between our two segments, with our Advanced Energy segment comprising a higher percentage of total sales, as well as product mix within our Advanced Energy segment as a result of our continued manufacturing efficiency initiatives and the introduction of newer product models.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2021 increased $0.1 million, or 1.2% year-over-year, to $10.6 million, compared to $10.5 million for the first quarter of 2020. The year-over-year change in operating expenses was driven by a $0.9 million increase in salaries and related costs and a $0.1 million increase in research and development expenses. The year-over-year change in operating expenses was partially offset $0.9 million decrease in professional services and a $0.1 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Total other (loss) income, net decreased $0.7 million year-over-year to $(0.1) million. The year-over-year change in total other (loss) income, net was primarily due to the receipt of refunds in the first quarter of 2020 on tariffs paid in 2019, which did not impact total other (loss) income, net in the first quarter of 2021.

Income tax expense for the first quarter of 2021 was $0.1 million, compared to income tax benefit of $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2020. The year-over-year change in income tax expense was primarily due to the net operating loss carryback claim refund recognized in the first quarter of 2020, which did not impact the tax expense in the first quarter of 2021.

Net loss for first quarter of 2021 was $4.9 million, or $(0.14) per share, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million, or $(0.06) per share, for the first quarter of 2020. Net loss in the first quarter of 2020 included an income tax benefit of $4.9 million.

Full Year 2021 Financial Outlook:

The Company is updating financial guidance for the year ending December 31, 2021 to:

  • Total revenue in the range of $37.6 million to $39.7 million, representing growth of 36% to 43% year-over-year, compared to total revenue of $27.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
    • Total revenue guidance assumes:
      • Advanced Energy revenue in the range of approximately $33.1 million to $35.2 million, representing growth of 49% to 59% year-over-year, compared to Advanced Energy revenue of $22.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Advanced Energy revenue range assumes that U.S. growth is only driven by contributions from Renuvion sales related to its use as a sub-dermal coagulator following liposuction procedures and that international growth is driven primarily by demand in existing international markets.
      • OEM revenue of approximately $4.4 million, representing a decline of 20% year-over-year, compared to $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
  • Net loss attributable to stockholders in the range of $20.3 million to $18.0 million, compared to net loss attributable to stockholders of $11.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 included an income tax benefit of $7.7 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss in the range of $14.1 million to $11.5 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA loss of $14.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET LOSS RESULTS TO NON-GAAP ADJUSTED EBITDA

(Unaudited)

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