Note 1
The Company:
Background
STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (the
“Company”) is a medical technology company in dermatology dedicated to developing, commercializing and marketing innovative products for the treatment of dermatologic conditions. Its products include the XTRAC® and Pharos® excimer lasers and VTRAC® lamp systems utilized in the
treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and various other skin conditions. In January 2022, the Company acquired the TheraClear Acne Treatment Device to broaden its opportunities with expansion potential in the acne care market.
The XTRAC is an ultraviolet light excimer
laser system utilized to treat psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin diseases. The XTRAC excimer laser system received clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) in 2000. As of June 30, 2022, there were 915 XTRAC systems placed in dermatologists' offices
in the United States and 38 systems internationally under the Company's recurring revenue business model. The XTRAC systems deployed
under the recurring revenue model generate revenue on a per procedure basis or include a fixed payment over an agreed upon period with a capped number of treatments, which if exceeded would incur additional fees. The per-procedure charge is
inclusive of the use of the system and the services provided by the Company to the customer, which includes system maintenance and other services. The VTRAC Excimer Lamp system, offered in addition to the XTRAC system internationally, provides
targeted therapeutic efficacy demonstrated by excimer technology with a lamp system.
The Pharos excimer
laser system holds FDA clearance to treat chronic skin diseases, including psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma.
The TheraClear®
Acne Clearing System combines intense pulse light with vacuum (suction) for the treatment of mild to moderate inflammatory acne (including acne vulgaris), comedonal acne and pustular acne.
Since 2019, the Company has been transitioning its international dermatology procedures equipment sales through its master distributor to a direct distribution model for
equipment sales and recurring revenue on a country-by-country basis, primarily in the Middle East and Asia.
In late 2019, there was an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which became a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy,
disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. In addition, the pandemic led to the suspension of elective procedures in the U.S. and to the temporary closure of many physician practices
which are our primary customers. While many offices reopened, some practices closed and never reopened, and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its variants on the Company’s operational and financial performance, including its
ability to execute its business strategies and initiatives in the expected time frames, will depend on future developments, including the duration and ongoing spread of the COVID-19 outbreak and its variants, continued or renewed restrictions
on business operations and transportation, any governmental and societal responses thereto, including legislative or regulatory changes as well as the percentage of the populace vaccinated and the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines and the
continued impact on worldwide economic and geopolitical conditions and inflation, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Domestically, as the procedures for which the Company’s devices are used are elective in nature; and as social distancing, travel restrictions, and other restrictions became
prevalent in the United States, this had a negative impact on the Company’s recurring revenue model and its financial position and cash flow. The virus has disrupted the supply chains world-wide which the Company depends upon to provide a
steady source of components to manufacture and repair the Company’s devices. To mitigate the impact of COVID-19, the Company took a variety of measures to ensure the availability and functioning of its critical infrastructure by
implementing business continuity plans. To promote the safety and security of its employees, while complying with various government mandates including work-from-home arrangements and social-distancing initiatives to reduce the transmission
of COVID-19, the Company is complying with federal and local regulations at its facilities. In addition, the Company created and executed programs utilizing its direct-to-consumer advertising and call center to contact patients and partner
clinics to restart the Company’s partners’ businesses. In October 2021, the Company implemented a policy whereby all Company employees are required to be vaccinated or complete weekly COVID-19 testing. See Note 2, Liquidity for discussion on Company liquidity.
Supply
chain disruptions which began during the pandemic have continued and may continue for the foreseeable future. While the Company’s operations have not been materially impacted by the general trends in supply chain problems, the Company continues
to monitor and assess potential risks.

STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of lasers)
(unaudited)
|
Basis of Presentation:
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and Photomedex India Private Limited, its wholly-owned, inactive subsidiary in India. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These condensed consolidated statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and
accruals) necessary to fairly present the results of the interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results and cash
flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations for interim
reporting of the SEC. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Form 10-K”), and other forms filed with the SEC from time to time. Dollar amounts included herein are in thousands, except share and per share data and number of lasers.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications from the prior year presentation have
been made to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidation financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed
consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported of
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those
assumptions. As of June 30, 2022, the more significant estimates include revenue recognition with respect to deferred revenues and the contract term and valuation allowances of accounts receivable, inputs used when evaluating
goodwill for impairment, inputs used in the valuation of acquired intangible assets, state sales and tax accruals, the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures
financial assets and liabilities at fair value at each reporting period using a fair value hierarchy that requires the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The Company defines fair value as the price that
would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs
used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:
|
|
•
|
Level 1 – quoted market prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 2 – observable inputs other than
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market
data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 3 – inputs that are generally
unobservable and typically reflect the Company’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The fair values of cash
and cash equivalents and restricted cash are based on their respective demand values, which are equal to the carrying values. The carrying values of all short-term monetary assets and liabilities are estimated to approximate their fair values
due to the short-term nature of these instruments. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt approximated its fair value due to its variable interest rate.
Net Earnings (Loss) Per
Share
Basic net earnings
(loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of
common stock includes the effect, if any, from the potential exercise or conversion of securities such as unvested restricted stock awards, stock options and warrants for common stock which would result in the issuance of incremental shares of
common stock. For diluted net loss per share, the weighted-average number of shares of common stock is the same as for basic net loss per share due to the fact that when a net loss exists, dilutive securities are not included in the calculation
as the impact is anti-dilutive.
The following potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and for the six months
ended June 30, 2021, as they would be anti-dilutive:
| June 30, |

|
|
2022 | 2021 | ||||||
|
Unvested restricted stock units
|
||||||||
|
Stock options
|
||||||||
|
Common stock warrants
|
||||||||
|
Total
|
||||||||
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock for the three months ended June 30,
2021 were as follows:
|
Basic weighted average shares of common stock outstanding
|
|
|||
|
Effect of dilutive stock options
|
|
|||
|
Diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding

Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-04, Earnings per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock
Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges or Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. The
pronouncement outlines how an entity should account for modifications made to equity-classified written call options, including stock options and warrants to purchase the entity’s own common stock. The guidance in the ASU requires an entity
to treat a modification of an equity-classified written call option that does not cause the option to become liability-classified as an exchange of the original option for a new option. This guidance applies whether the modification is
structured as an amendment to the terms and conditions of the equity-classified written call option or as termination of the original option and issuance of a new option. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2021. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2022 did not have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326):
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended subsequently by ASUs 2018-19, 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, 2019-11 and 2020-03. The guidance in the ASUs requires that credit losses be reported using an expected
losses model rather than the incurred losses model that is currently used. The standard also establishes additional disclosures related to credit risks. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe this will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of
the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and in January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. These pronouncements provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions
for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The transition
period for adopting these ASUs is March 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company continues to evaluate the temporary
expedients and options available under this guidance and the effects of these pronouncements and, as the Company does not have any hedging activities, does not believe this will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial
statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic
470-20) and Derivative and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s own Equity. The pronouncement simplifies
the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity's own equity. Specifically, the ASU simplifies accounting for convertible
instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. In addition, the ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for it and simplifies the diluted earnings per
share (EPS) calculations in certain areas. The guidance is effective beginning after December 15, 2023 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not
currently engage in contracts covered by this guidance and does not believe it will have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, but it could in the future.
Note 2
Liquidity:
The Company has been negatively impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, has historically experienced recurring losses, has been dependent on raising capital
from the sale of securities in order to continue to operate and refinanced its debt at a lower interest rate. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company received cash proceeds from a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan, which was forgiven,
and an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (the “EIDL loan”) that was repaid at the time the Senior Term Facility was entered into with MidCap Financial Trust in September 2021 (Note 9). Additionally, in October 2021, the Company entered into an
equity distribution agreement with an investment bank under which the Company may sell up to $11.0 million of its common stock in
registered “at-the-market” offerings. Management believes that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, combined with the anticipated revenues from the sale or use of its products, will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s working capital
needs, capital asset purchases, outstanding commitments and other liquidity requirements associated with its existing operations for at least the next 12 months following the date of the issuance of these unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements. However, market conditions, including the negative impact of the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak on the financial markets and supply chain disruptions, could interfere with the Company’s ability to access financing
and on favorable terms.
Note 3
Revenue Recognition:
Revenues from the Company’s dermatology
recurring procedures customers are earned by providing physicians with its laser products and charging the physicians a fee for a fixed number of treatment sessions or a fixed fee for a specified period of time not to exceed an agreed upon
number of treatments; if that number is exceeded additional fees will have to be paid. The placement of the laser products at physician locations represents embedded leases which are accounted for as operating leases. For the lasers placed-in
service under these arrangements, the terms of the domestic arrangements are generally 36 months with automatic one-year renewals
and include a termination clause that can be effected at any time by either party with 30 to 60 day notice. Amounts paid are generally non-refundable. Sales of access codes for a fixed number of treatment sessions are considered variable
treatment code payments and are recognized as revenue over the estimated usage period of the agreed upon number of treatments. Sales of access codes for a specified period of time are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis as the lasers
are being used over the term period specified in the agreement. Variable treatment code payments that will be paid only if the customer exceeds the agreed upon number of treatments are recognized only when such treatments are being exceeded and
used. Internationally, the Company generally sells access codes for a fixed amount on a monthly basis to its distributors and the terms are generally 48
months, with termination in the event of the customers’ failure to remit payments timely, and include a potential buy-out at the end of the term of the contract. Currently, this is the only foreign recurring revenue. Prepaid amounts recorded in
deferred revenue and customer deposits recorded in accounts payable are recognized as revenue over the lease term in the patterns described above. Pricing is fixed with the customer. With respect to lease and non-lease components, the Company
adopted the practical expedient to account for the arrangement as a single lease component.
Revenues from the sales of the
Company’s dermatology procedures equipment are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to its customers or distributors, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. Accordingly, the Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
|
•
|
identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
|
|
|
•
|
identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
|
|
|
•
|
determination of the transaction price;
|
|
|
•
|
allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
|
|
|
•
|
recognition of revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

Accounting for the Company’s contracts involves the use of significant
judgments and estimates including determining the separate performance obligations, allocating the transaction price to the different performance obligations and determining the method to measure the entity’s performance toward satisfaction
of performance obligations that most faithfully depicts when control is transferred to the customer. The Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the Company’s best estimate of the standalone
selling price for each distinct good or service in the contract. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs by beginning with average historical contractual selling prices and adjusting as necessary and on a consistent and rational
basis for other inputs such as pricing trends, customer types, volumes and changing cost and margins.
Revenues from the sales of dermatology procedures equipment are recognized
when control of the promised products is transferred to either the Company’s distributors or end-user customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products (the
transaction price). Control transfers to the customer at a point in time. To indicate the transfer of control, the Company must have a present right to payment and legal title must have passed to the customer. The Company ships most of its
products FOB shipping point, and as such, the Company primarily transfers control and records revenue upon shipment. From time to time the Company will grant certain customers, for example governmental customers, FOB destination terms, and
the transfer of control for revenue recognition occurs upon receipt. The Company has elected to recognize the cost of freight and shipping activities as fulfillment costs. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included
as part of the transaction price and recognized as revenue when control of the underlying goods are transferred to the customer. The related shipping and freight charges incurred by the Company are included in cost of revenues.
The following table summarizes the Company’s expected
future undiscounted fixed treatment code payments from international recurring revenue customers as of June 30, 2022 :

Remaining performance obligations
related to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to
performance obligations with an original contract term greater than one year, which are fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period. Remaining performance obligations include the potential obligation to perform under extended
warranties but exclude any equipment accounted for as leases. As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $741 , and the Company expects to recognize $464 of the remaining performance
obligations within one year and the balance over to three years . Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s
rights to consideration for work completed in relation to its services performed but not billed at the reporting date. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Currently, the Company does not have
any contract assets which have not transferred to a receivable.
Contract
liabilities primarily relate to extended warranties where the Company has received payments but has not yet satisfied the related performance obligations. The allocations of the transaction price are based on the price of stand-alone warranty
contracts sold in the ordinary course of business. The advance consideration received from customers for the warranty services is a contract liability that is recognized ratably over the warranty period. As of June 30, 2022, the $464 of short-term contract liabilities is presented as deferred revenues and the $277 of long-term contract liabilities is presented within deferred revenues and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended June 30, 2022
and 2021, the Company recognized $225 and $20 , respectively, as revenue from amounts classified as contract liabilities (e.g. deferred revenues) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021,
the Company recognized $638 and $54 ,
respectively, as revenue from amounts classified as contract liabilities (e.g. deferred revenues) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.
With respect to contract acquisition
costs, the Company applied the practical expedient and expenses these costs immediately.

Note 4
Acquisition of TheraClear
Assets:
In January 2022, the Company acquired
certain assets related to the TheraClear Devices from Theravant Corporation (“Theravant”). The TheraClear asset acquisition will allow the Company to further develop, commercialize and market the TheraClear Devices that are used for acne treatment,
as well as advance the TheraClear technology into multiple other devices that can be used to treat a range of additional indications.
The Company made an upfront cash payment of
$500 and issued to Theravant 358,367
shares of common stock with an aggregate value of $500 as of the closing date in connection with the TheraClear asset acquisition.
Theravant is eligible to receive up to $3,000 in future earnout payments upon the achievement of certain annual net revenue milestones,
up to $20,000 in future royalty payments based upon a percentage of gross profit from future domestic sales ranging from 10 -20 %, 25 % of gross profit from international sales over the subsequent four-year period, and up to $1,000 in future milestone payments upon the achievement of certain
development and commercialization related targets.
The Company determined this transaction
represented an asset acquisition as substantially all of the value was in the TheraClear technology intangible asset as defined by ASC 805, Business Combinations.
The purchase price was allocated, on a
relative fair value basis, to the technology intangible asset and acquired inventories as follows:

The
technology intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of ten years , to be updated for subsequent
changes in the contingent consideration that is allocated to its carrying value. The intangible asset was valued using the relief from royalty method. Significant assumptions used in the relief from royalty method include a 14.5 % weighted average cost of capital and 15.0 %
of revenues for the royalty rate. The net book value of acquired inventories approximated its fair value. To calculate the fair value of the earnout using Monte Carlo simulations, Company projections were utilized to develop expected revenues
and gross profits based on the risk inherent in the projections using the Geometric-Brownian motion for the earnout periods and related earnout payments. Significant assumptions used in the Geometric-Brownian motion analysis include projected
revenues, projected gross profit, risk free rate of return of 1.6 %, revenue volatility of 45.0 %, and a cost of equity of 10.5 %. Due to uncertainties
associated with the development of a new product line and the use of estimates and assumptions to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration, the amount ultimately paid in connection with the earnout may differ from the estimated
fair value at the acquisition date. A revaluation of the contingent consideration would only be required if there is a significant change to the underlying valuation assumptions. The contingent consideration will be adjusted when the
contingency is resolved and the consideration is paid or becomes payable. Any difference between the cash payment and the amount accrued for contingent consideration will result in an adjustment to the technology intangible asset. Contingent
consideration expected to be paid within the next year is classified as current on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Long-term Debt:
Senior Term Facility
On September 30, 2021, the Company entered into a credit and security agreement with MidCap
Financial Trust, also acting as the administrative agent, and the lenders identified therein (“Senior Term Facility”). The Senior Term Facility provides for an $8,000 senior term loan that was drawn upon by the Company upon executing the agreement. Borrowings under the Senior Term Facility bear interest at LIBOR (with a LIBOR floor rate of 0.50 %) plus 7.50 % per year and
mature on September 1, 2026 , unless terminated earlier. The Company is obligated to make monthly interest-only payments through September 30, 2024. From October 1, 2024 to the date of maturity, the Company will make 24 equal monthly principal payments plus interest, and all
borrowings are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Senior Term Facility was amended on January 10, 2022 to permit the acquisition of TheraClear Devices (Note 4).
The Company may voluntarily prepay the outstanding term loan, with such prepayment at least $5,000 , at any time upon 30 days’
written notice. Upon prepayment, the Company will be required to pay a prepayment fee equal to (i) 4.00 % of the outstanding
principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is made within 12 months of September 30, 2021, (ii) 3.00 %
of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is made between 12 months and 24 months after September 30, 2021, (iii) 2.00 % of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is made between 24 months and 36 months after September 30,
2021, or (iv) 1.00 % of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is
made after 36 months after September 30, 2021 and prior to the maturity date.
The Senior Term Facility contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative
covenants and conditions. The Senior Term Facility also contains a number of negative covenants that subject the Company to certain exceptions and waivers and restrictions, as defined in the agreement. In addition, the Senior Term Facility
contains a quarterly financial covenant that requires the Company to have a specified minimum amount of net revenue for the trailing 12-month period, with compliance measured on the last day of each fiscal quarter beginning on September 30,
2021. At June 30, 2022, the minimum net revenue threshold was $26,000 . The minimum net revenue threshold will increase to $30,000 by December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all financial and nonfinancial covenants within the Senior Term
Facility.
The Senior Term Facility contains customary indemnification obligations and customary events of
default, including, among other things, (i) nonpayment, (ii) breach of warranty, (iii) nonperformance of covenants and obligations, (iv) default on other indebtedness, (v) judgments, (iv) change of control, (vii) bankruptcy and insolvency,
(viii) impairment of security, (xi) regulatory matters, (xii) failure to remain a publicly traded company and (xiii) material adverse event. Where an event of default arises from certain bankruptcy events, the commitments shall automatically
and immediately terminate and the principal of, and interest then outstanding on, all of the loans shall become immediately due and payable. Subject to certain notice requirements and other conditions, upon the occurrence of other events of
default, including the occurrence of a condition having or reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect, commitments may be terminated and the principal of, and interest then outstanding on, all of the loans may become immediately due
and payable. On June 30, 2022, no event of default had occurred and the Company believed that events or conditions having a material adverse effect, giving rise to an acceleration of any amounts outstanding under the Senior Term Facility, had
not occurred and was remote.

In connection with entering into the Senior Term Facility, the Company issued an affiliate of
the lender a warrant to purchase 373,626 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.82 per share. The warrants are equity classified and are exercisable at any time on or prior to the tenth anniversary of their issue date. The
estimated fair value of the warrants was $585 and determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The key assumptions used
in the Black-Scholes option pricing model were (i) an expected term of ten years , (ii) expected volatility of 88.6 %, (iii) a risk-free rate of 1.50 %
and (iv) no estimated dividend yield. In addition, the Company incurred third party costs and lender fees of $133 . The proceeds were allocated on a basis that approximates the relative fair value method. The fair value of the warrants and fees incurred
were recorded as a debt discount and are being recognized as interest expense over the life of the Senior Term Facility using the effective-interest method. The unamortized debt discount was $605 as of June 30, 2022. The Company recognized interest expense of $208
and $407 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, of which $39 and $76 was related to the amortization of the debt discount for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Stock-based Compensation:
The Company’s 2016 Omnibus Incentive Stock Plan (“2016 Plan”), as amended, has
reserved up to 7,832,651
shares of common stock for future issuance. As of June 30, 2022, there were 3,283,167
shares of common stock remaining available for issuance for awards under the 2016 Plan.
The Company measures stock‑based awards at their grant‑date fair value and records compensation expense on a straight‑line basis over the
requisite service period of the awards. The Company recorded stock‑based compensation expense of $452 and $581 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $820 and $1,243 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, and stock-based compensation was included within general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On March 30, 2022,
the Company granted 160,000 stock-based options to the Chief Executive Officer. The vesting of these awards is contingent upon meeting
one or more financial goals (a performance condition) or a common stock share price (a market condition). The fair value of stock-based awards is determined at the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded ratably for market
condition awards during the requisite service period and is not reversed, except for forfeitures, at the vesting date regardless of whether the market condition is met. Stock-based compensation expense for performance condition awards is
re-evaluated at each reporting period based on the probability of the achievement of the goal

Note 11
Income Taxes:
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The provision for income taxes includes federal, state and local
income taxes currently payable and deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely
than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

The
Company has experienced certain ownership changes, which under the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, result in annual limitations on the Company's ability to utilize its net operating losses in the
future. The February 2014, July 2014, June 2015 and May 2018 equity raises by the Company will limit the annual use of these net operating loss carryforwards. Although the Company has not performed a Section 382 study, any limitation of its
pre-change net operating loss carryforwards that would result in a reduction of its deferred tax asset would also have an equal and offsetting adjustment to the valuation allowance.
Note 12
Business Segments:
The Company has organized its business into two operating
segments to better align its organization based upon the Company’s management structure, products and services offered, markets served and types of customers, as follows. The Dermatology Recurring Procedures segment derives its revenues from
the usage of its equipment by dermatologists to perform XTRAC procedures. The Dermatology Procedures Equipment segment generates revenues from the sale of equipment, such as lasers and lamp products. Management reviews financial information
presented on an operating segment basis for the purposes of making certain operating decisions and assessing financial performance.
Unallocated operating expenses include
costs that are not specific to a particular segment but are general to the group; included are expenses incurred for administrative and accounting staff, general liability and other insurance, professional fees and other similar corporate
expenses. Interest and other financing income (expense) are also not allocated to the operating segments.
The following tables reflect results of operations from the Company’s business segments for the periods
indicated below:

The assets acquired from Theravant in January 2022 (see Note 4) will be primarily attributed to the dermatology recurring procedures business segment,
resulting in a material increase in total assets for that segment at June 30, 2022 as compared to the 2021 Form 10-K.
Note 13
Significant Customer Concentrations:
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, revenues from sales to one of the Company’s distributors
were $1,840 , or 20.2 %,
and $797 , or 10.8 %,
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, revenues from sales to two and one of the Company’s distributors were $3,773 , or 23.4 %, and $1,480 , or 11.2 %, respectively.
No other customer
represented more than 10% of total Company revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
Note 14
Commitments and Contingencies:
Leases
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”) and operating lease liabilities when it obtains the right to control an asset under a leasing arrangement
with an initial term greater than 12 months. The Company adopted the short-term accounting election for leases with a duration of less than one year. The Company leases its facilities and certain IT and office equipment under non-cancellable
operating leases. All of the Company's leasing arrangements are classified as operating leases with remaining lease terms ranging from
to three years , and one facility lease has a renewal option for two years . Renewal options have been excluded from the determination of the lease term as they are not reasonably certain of exercise.
Operating lease costs were $99 and $107 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Operating lease costs were $212 and $223 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $114 and $115 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease
liabilities was $227 and $231
for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the incremental borrowing rate was 9.76 % and the
weighted average remaining lease term was 2.2 years.

Accrued State Sales and Use Tax
The Company records state sales tax collected and remitted for its customers on dermatology procedures equipment sales on a net basis, excluded
from revenue. The Company’s sales tax expense that is not presently being collected and remitted for the recurring revenue business is recorded in general and administrative expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company believes its state sales and use tax accruals have been properly recognized such that, if the Company’s arrangements with
customers are deemed more likely than not that the Company would not be exempt from sales tax in a particular state, the basis for measurement of the state sales and use tax is calculated in accordance with ASC 405, Liabilities, as a transaction tax. If and when the Company is successful in defending itself or in settling the sales tax obligation for a lesser amount, the reversal of this
liability is to be recorded in the period the settlement is reached. However, the precise scope, timing and time period at issue, as well as the final outcome of any audit and actual settlement, remains uncertain.
In
the ordinary course of business, the Company is, from time to time, subject to audits performed by state taxing authorities. These actions and proceedings are generally based on the position that the arrangements entered into by the Company
are subject to sales and use tax rather than exempt from tax under applicable law. Several states have assessed the Company an aggregate of $2,375
including penalties and interest for the period from March 2014 through April 2020. An administrative state judge in the State of New York issued an opinion in January 2021 finding in favor of the Company that the sale of XTRAC treatment
codes was not taxable as sales tax with respect to that state’s first assessment. This ruling covers $1,484 of the total $2,375 of assessments. The relevant taxing authority filed an appeal of the administrative law judge’s finding and, following the submission of
legal briefs by both sides and oral argument held in January 2022, on May 6, 2022, the Company received a written decision from the State of New York Tax Appeals Tribunal (“Tribunal”) overturning the favorable sales tax determination of the
administrative law judge. The Company has until September 6, 2022 to file an appeal of the Tribunal’s decision.
The Company is also in another jurisdiction’s administrative process of appeal with respect to the remaining $891 of assessments, and the timing of the process has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. If there is a determination that the true object of the Company’s recurring
revenue model is not exempt from sales taxes and is not a prescription medicine, or the Company does not have other defenses where the Company prevails, the Company may be subject to sales taxes in those particular states for previous years and
in the future, plus potential interest and penalties.
The precise scope, timing and time periods at issue, as well as the final outcomes of the investigations and judicial proceedings, remain uncertain. Accordingly, the
Company’s estimate may change from time to time, and actual losses could vary.
Milestone Payments
In January 2022, the Company entered into a Development Agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Theravant Corporation (“Theravant”). Under the Development
Agreement, the Company will reimburse Theravant for costs incurred in further developing certain TheraClear technology and other healthcare products and methods for the medical aesthetic marketplace. In connection with the development of three devices, Theravant is eligible to receive $500
upon FDA clearance for each device and $500 upon achievement of certain net revenue targets for each device, aggregating to $3,000 of potential future milestone payments under the Development Agreement. The Development Agreement has a three-year term, unless terminated sooner by either party, and is being accounted for separately from the TheraClear asset acquisition discussed in
Note 4.
Legal Matters
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is routinely a defendant in or party to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings,
including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. These actions and proceedings are generally based on alleged violations of employment, contract and other laws. In some of these actions and proceedings, claims for substantial
monetary damages are asserted against the Company. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is also subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, investigations, and threatened legal
actions and proceedings. In connection with formal and informal inquiries by federal, state, local and foreign agencies, the Company receives numerous requests, subpoenas and orders for documents, testimony and information in connection with
various aspects of its activities.

On April 1, 2022, a proposed representative class action under California’s Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) was filed in Superior Court
of California, County of San Diego against the Company and an employment agency (“Co-Defendant”) which provided the Company with temporary employees. The complaint alleges various violations of the California Labor Code, including California’s
wage and hour laws, relating to current and former non-exempt employees of the Company. The complaint seeks class status and payments for allegedly unpaid compensation and attorney’s fees. In a related matter, the attorneys in this matter and
the proposed class representative, in a letter dated March 12, 2022, to the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency made nearly identical claims seeking the right to pursue a PAGA action against the Company and the employment
agency. On or about May 16, 2022, the plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint adding a PAGA claim to the action. On or about June 2, 2022, the plaintiff filed an Application to Dismiss Class and Individual Claim without prejudice, in an
attempt to pursue a PAGA only complaint. On or about June 30, 2022, the parties entered into a stipulation to allow the plaintiff to file a Second Amended Complaint to clarify the PAGA claim and to stay the pending action to allow an attempt at
resolution at a mediation scheduled for February 23, 2023. On July 7, 2022, the Company and the Co-Defendant each filed its respective Notice of Appearance that each intended to defend against the claims. No amount has been accrued for this
matter as of June 30, 2022, as the likelihood of a loss has not been deemed probable nor is the amount of any loss estimable.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
|
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to
condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”). This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, statements about the plans, objectives, expectations and intentions of STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (referred to in this Report as “we,” “us,” “our,” “STRATA,” “STRATA Skin Sciences” or
“registrant”) and other statements contained in this Report that are not historical facts. When reviewing the discussion below, you should keep in mind the substantial risks and uncertainties that characterize our business including the scope and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its impact on global economic systems. In
particular, we encourage you to review the risks and uncertainties described in Part II-Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to
differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements contained in this Report or implied by past results and trends. Forward-looking statements are statements that attempt to forecast or anticipate future developments in our
business, financial condition or results of operations and statements These statements, like all statements in this Report, speak only as of their date (unless another date is indicated), and we undertake no obligation to update or revise these
statements in light of future developments.
The following financial data, in this narrative, are expressed in thousands, except for the earnings per share and prices per treatment.
Introduction, Outlook, Overview of Business Operations and Recent Developments
STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. is a medical technology company in dermatology dedicated to developing, commercializing and marketing innovative products for the treatment of dermatologic conditions. Its products
include the XTRAC® and now Pharos® excimer lasers and VTRAC® lamp systems utilized in the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and various other skin conditions. Its products also include the TheraClear® Acne Clearing System utilized in the treatment
of mild to moderate inflammatory, comedonal and pustular acne.
The XTRAC ultraviolet light excimer laser system is utilized to treat psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin diseases. The XTRAC excimer laser system received clearance from the United States Food and Drug
Administration in 2000 and has since become a widely recognized treatment among dermatologists. The system delivers targeted 308nm ultraviolet light to affected areas of skin, leading to psoriasis clearing and vitiligo repigmentation, following a
series of treatments. As of June 30, 2022, there were 915 XTRAC systems placed in dermatologists’ offices in the United States under our dermatology recurring procedures model, an increase from 890 at the end of December 31, 2021. Under the
dermatology recurring procedures model, the XTRAC system is placed in a physician’s office and fees are charged on a per procedure basis or a fee is charged on a periodic basis not to exceed an agreed upon number of procedures. The XTRAC system’s
use for psoriasis is covered by nearly all major insurance companies, including Medicare. The VTRAC Excimer Lamp system, offered internationally in addition to the XTRAC, provides targeted therapeutic efficacy demonstrated by excimer technology
with the simplicity of design and reliability of a lamp system. We believe there are approximately 7.5 million people in the United States and up to 125 million people worldwide suffering from psoriasis, and 1% to 2% of the world’s population
suffers from vitiligo.
The Pharos excimer laser system holds FDA clearance to treat chronic skin diseases, including psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma.
The TheraClear® Acne Clearing System combines intense pulse light with vacuum (suction) for the treatment of mild to moderate inflammatory acne (including acne vulgaris), comedonal acne and pustular acne.
In late 2019, there was an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which became a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has
negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. In addition, the pandemic led to the suspension of elective procedures in the U.S. and to the
temporary closure of many physician practices which are our primary customers. While many offices have reopened, some physician practices closed and never reopened, and the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its variants on our
operational and financial performance, including our ability to execute our business strategies and initiatives in the expected time frames, will depend on future developments, including the duration and ongoing spread of the COVID-19 outbreak
and its variants, continued or renewed restrictions on business operations and transportation, any governmental and societal responses thereto, including legislative or regulatory as well as the percentage of the populace vaccinated and
effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines and the continued impact on worldwide economic and geopolitical conditions and inflation, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Domestically, as the procedures in which our devices are used are elective in nature and as social distancing, travel restrictions, and other restrictions became prevalent in the United States,
this had a negative impact on our recurring revenue model and our financial position and cash flow. The virus has disrupted the supply chains world-wide that we depend upon to provide a steady source of components to manufacture and repair our
devices. To mitigate the impact of COVID-19, we have taken a variety of measures to ensure the availability and functioning of our critical infrastructure by implementing business continuity plans to promote the safety and security of our
employees, while complying with various government mandates, including work-from-home arrangements and social-distancing initiatives to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, and complying with federal and local regulations at our facilities. The
Company implemented a policy whereby all Company employees are required to be vaccinated or complete weekly COVID-19 testing. In addition, we created and executed programs utilizing our direct-to-consumer advertising and call center to contact
patients and partner clinics to restart our partners’ businesses.
In the event our own employees are impacted through direct or ancillary contact with a person who has the virus, we may need to devise other methods of transacting business in our offices by
working from home and or potentially ceasing operations for a period of time. Supply chain disruptions which began during the pandemic have continued and may continue for the foreseeable future. While the Company’s operations have not been
materially impacted by the general trends in supply chain problems, the Company continues to monitor and assess potential risks.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on our results of operations and financial performance through the second quarter of fiscal 2022. We experienced a significant number of
cases of a COVID-19 variant among our employees in January 2022 and some physician offices continue to experience staffing issues, and we believe these shortages of trained personnel have negatively impacted our business. Accordingly, current
results and financial conditions discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends.
In August 2021, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities related to the Pharos U.S. dermatology business of Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (“Ra Medical”) for an upfront cash payment
of $3,700. The Pharos asset acquisition provides us with the opportunity to market our full business solutions to Ra Medical’s existing customer base of 400 dermatology practices and increase our recurring revenue base. The Pharos transaction
also provides a potentially synergistic path to gain additional placements for our XTRAC excimer laser system.
In January 2022, we acquired certain assets of TheraClear Devices from Theravant Corporation (“Theravant”). The TheraClear asset acquisition will allow us to further develop, commercialize and
market the TheraClear Devices that are used for acne treatment, as well as advance the TheraClear technology into multiple other devices that can be used to treat a range of additional indications. We made an upfront cash payment of $500 in
connection with the asset acquisition. In addition, Theravant received 358,367 shares of our common stock with an aggregate value of $500 as of the closing date and is eligible to receive up to $3,000 in future earnout payments upon the
achievement of certain annual net revenue milestones, up to $20,000 in future royalty payments based upon a percentage of gross profit from future domestic sales ranging from 10-20%, 25% of gross profit from international sales over the
subsequent four-year period, and up to $1,000 in future milestone payments upon the achievement of certain development and commercialization related targets.
In January 2022, we entered into a Development Agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Theravant. Under the Development Agreement, the Company will reimburse Theravant for costs incurred in further developing
certain TheraClear technology and other healthcare products and methods for the medical aesthetic marketplace. In connection with the development of three devices, Theravant is eligible to receive $500 upon FDA clearance for each device and $500
upon achievement of certain net revenue targets for each device, aggregating to $3,000 of potential future milestone payments under the Development Agreement. The Development Agreement has a three-year term, unless terminated sooner by either
party.
Key Technology
| • |
XTRAC® Excimer Laser. XTRAC received FDA clearance in 2000 and has since become a widely recognized treatment among dermatologists for psoriasis and other skin diseases. The XTRAC System
delivers ultra-narrowband ultraviolet B (“UVB”) light to affected areas of skin. Following a series of treatments typically performed twice weekly, psoriasis remission can be achieved, and vitiligo
patches can be re-pigmented. XTRAC is endorsed by the National Psoriasis Foundation, and its use for psoriasis is covered by nearly all major insurance companies, including Medicare. We estimate that more than half of all major insurance
companies now offer reimbursement for vitiligo as well, a figure that is increasing. In February 2022, we announced the commercial launch, with the first installation in the U.S. market, of our next generation excimer laser system, XTRAC
MomentumTM 1.0

In the third quarter of 2018, we announced the FDA granted clearance for our Multi Micro Dose (MMD) tip for our XTRAC excimer laser. The MMD Tip accessory is indicated for use in conjunction with the XTRAC laser system to filter the
Narrow Band UVB (“NB-UVB”) light at delivery in order to calculate and individualize the maximum non-blistering dose for a particular patient.

In January 2020, we announced the FDA granted clearance of our XTRAC Momentum Excimer Laser Platform.

VTRAC® Lamp. VTRAC received FDA clearance in 2005 and provides targeted therapeutic efficacy demonstrated by excimer technology with the simplicity of design
and reliability of a lamp system.

TheraClear Acne Treatment Device. The TheraClear® Acne Clearing System combines intense pulse light with vacuum (suction) for the treatment of mild to moderate inflammatory acne (including acne
vulgaris), comedonal acne and pustular acne.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies in the six months ended June 30, 2022 except for contingent consideration as described below. Critical accounting policies and the significant
estimates made in accordance with such policies are regularly discussed with our Audit Committee. Those policies are discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies” in our “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Item 7, as well as in our consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 of our Annual Report
on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 21, 2022.
Contingent Consideration
The purchase price for certain assets acquired related to TheraClear Devices during January 2022 includes earnout payments, or contingent consideration. Estimates that involve a significant level of estimation
uncertainty include the valuation of contingent consideration, which was determined using forecasted financial information available at the acquisition date, a discount rate and various other assumptions as described in more detail in Note 4 to
our condensed consolidated financial statements. Due to uncertainties associated with the development of a new product line and the use of estimates and assumptions to determine the fair value of the contingent
consideration, the amount ultimately paid in connection with the earnout may differ from the estimated fair value at the acquisition date. A revaluation of the contingent consideration would only be required if there is a significant change to
the underlying valuation assumptions. The contingent consideration will be adjusted when the contingency is resolved and the consideration is paid or becomes payable. Any difference between the cash payment and the amount accrued for contingent
consideration will result in an adjustment to the technology intangible asset.

Dermatology Recurring Procedures
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on our results during 2021 and through the first quarter of 2022 Recognized recurring treatment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $5,582, which
we estimate is approximately 86,000 treatments with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment, compared to recognized recurring treatment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 of $5,452, which we estimate is approximately 78,000
treatments, with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment. Recognized recurring treatment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $10,649, which we estimate is approximately 157,000 treatments with prices between $65 to $95 per
treatment, compared to recognized recurring treatment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $10,131, which we estimate is approximately 145,000 treatments, with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment.
Increases in procedures are dependent upon building market acceptance through marketing programs with our physician partners and their patients to show that the XTRAC procedures will be of clinical benefit and will
be generally reimbursed by insurers. We believe that several factors have an impact on the prescribed use of XTRAC treatments for psoriasis and vitiligo patients. Specifically, we believe that there is a lack
of awareness of the positive effects of XTRAC treatments among both sufferers and providers; and the treatment regimen, which can sometimes require up to 12 or more treatments, has limited XTRAC use to certain patient populations. Therefore, our
strategy is to continue to execute a direct-to-patient program for XTRAC advertising in the United States, targeting psoriasis and vitiligo patients through a variety of media including television and radio; and through our use of social media
such as Facebook and Twitter. We monitor the results of our advertising expenditures in this area to reach the more than 10 million patients in the United States we believe are afflicted with these diseases. Furthermore, we increased our presence
at trade shows throughout the United States during the first and second quarters of 2022, and we held our national sales meeting for the first time since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic during the second quarter of 2022.
Revenues from dermatology recurring procedures are recognized over the estimated usage period of the agreed upon number of treatments, as the treatments are being used. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, we deferred net
revenues of $2,501 and $1,897 respectively, which will be recognized as revenue over the remaining usage period for domestic placements. Higher deferred revenue from the fourth quarter of 2021 favorably impacted the first half of 2022 as compared
to the first half of 2021, when lower deferred revenue from the fourth quarter of 2020 negatively impacted that period.
Dermatology Procedures Equipment
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, dermatology procedures equipment revenues were $3,523 and $5,497, respectively. Internationally, we sold 35 systems (30 XTRAC and 5 VTRAC) and 49 systems (41 XTRAC
and 8 VTRAC), respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Domestically, there was one XTRAC system sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. In addition to equipment sales, we recognized approximately $220
and $620, respectively, of deferred service revenue associated with assumed service contracts from Ra Medical during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, dermatology procedures equipment revenues were $1,930 and $3,078, respectively. Internationally, we sold 14 and 16 XTRAC systems, respectively, during the three and
six months ended June 30, 2021. Domestically, there were five XTRAC systems sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Gross profit increased to $4,993 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $4,761 during the same period in 2021. As a percent of revenues, the gross profit was 54.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022,
as compared to 64.5% for the same period in 2021. The decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily the result of an increase in amortization of intangible assets due to the Pharos and TheraClear asset acquisitions and a change in product mix
with higher sales of dermatology procedures equipment, which has a lower margin than dermatology recurring procedures.
Gross profit increased to $9,121 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $8,474 during the same period in 2021. As a percent of revenues, the gross profit was 56.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as

The primary reasons that gross profit percentage decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 were higher amortization of intangible assets due to the Pharos and
TheraClear asset acquisitions and higher depreciation expenses and labor costs in 2022 compared to the same period of 2021, partially offset by higher recurring procedures sales.

Engineering and Product Development
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, engineering and product development expenses were $209 as compared to $403 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, engineering and
product development expenses were $372 as compared to $787 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Engineering and product development costs during the three and six-month periods in 2022 were lower primarily as a result of reduction of costs
incurred in connection with developing XTRAC MomentumTM 1.0, our next generation excimer laser system that was commercially launched in February 2022.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, selling and marketing expenses were $4,146 as compared to $3,160 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30,
2022 were higher as compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to investments we made in sales and marketing and direct-to-consumer and dermatologists advertising, as well as increased head count and employee-related expenses in the first
half of 2022. Increased spending in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 also consisted of our national sales meeting and increased attendance at trade shows.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, selling and marketing expenses were $7,762 as compared to $6,092 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022
were higher as compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due to investments we made in sales and marketing and direct-to-consumer and dermatologists advertising, as well as increased head count and employee-related expenses, in the first
quarter of 2022. Increased spending in the first half of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 also consisted of our national sales meeting, held in the second quarter of 2022, and increased attendance at trade shows.
General and Administrative Expenses
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses increased to $2,332 from $2,121 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. General and administrative expenses were higher for the three
months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to higher accounting and legal fees.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses increased to $4,984 from $4,910 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. General and administrative expenses were consistent with the six
months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to higher compensation, severance and recruiting expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2021 as a result of the CEO transition, offset by higher accounting and
legal fees in the first half of 2022.
Gain on Debt Extinguishment
During the second quarter of 2021, we received notification that our PPP loan had been forgiven and we recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $2,028 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense is primarily attributable to our debt obligations. Interest expense increased to $208 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $26 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Interest expense
increased to $407 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $56 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increases were primarily the result of a higher interest rate on the Senior Term Facility entered into in September 2021.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have determined to supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), presented
elsewhere within this Report, with certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, which excludes the non-cash expense of amortization of acquired intangible assets classified as cost of
revenues, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization.”
These non-GAAP disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for Gross Profit or Net Earnings (Loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. We consider these non-GAAP measures
in addition to our results prepared under current accounting standards, but they are not a substitute for, nor superior to, U.S. GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance readers’ overall understanding of our current
financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to Gross Profit
or Net Earnings (Loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of
our core operating results and business outlook. In addition, we believe non-GAAP measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods. Reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures
included in this Report is as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2022, we had $4,266 of working capital compared to $7,168 as of December 31, 2021. The change in working capital was primarily the result of decreases in cash and cash equivalents and accounts
receivable and an increase in accounts payable, offset by an increase in inventories, as we invested in capital assets, completed the asset acquisition of TheraClear, and bolstered inventories to avoid supply chain disruptions. Cash and cash
equivalents were $10,036 as of June 30, 2022, as compared to $12,586 as of December 31, 2021.
In September 2021, we entered into a credit and security agreement with MidCap Financial Trust, also acting as the administrative agent, and the lenders identified therein and borrowed $8,000
in the form of a senior term loan. The term loan bears interest at LIBOR (with a LIBOR floor rate of 0.50%) plus 7.50% per year and matures on September 1, 2026, unless terminated earlier. We are obligated to make monthly interest-only payments
through September 30, 2024. From October 1, 2024 to the date of maturity, we will make 24 equal monthly principal payments plus interest, and all borrowings are secured by substantially all of our assets.
In October 2021, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with an investment bank under which we may sell up to $11,000 of our shares of common stock in registered “at-the-market” offerings. The shares will
be offered at prevailing market prices, and we will pay commissions of up to 3.00% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares sold through our agent, which may act as an agent and/or principal. We have no obligation to sell any shares under
this agreement and may, at any time, suspend solicitations under this agreement. No shares of our common stock have been sold under this distribution agreement through June 30, 2022.
We cannot predict our revenues and expenses in the short term as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related governmental responses. Based on our current business plan, we believe that our cash and cash
equivalents, combined with the anticipated revenues from the sale or use of our products, will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital needs, capital asset purchases, outstanding commitments and other liquidity requirements associated with
its existing operations for at least the next 12 months following the date of the issuance of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. However, if these sources are insufficient to
satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell additional debt or equity securities or enter into a new credit facility or another form of third-party funding or seek other debt financing. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity
or equity-linked securities, our stockholders would experience dilution and any new equity securities could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Debt financing, if available, may involve
covenants restricting our operations or our ability to incur additional debt. We cannot be assured that additional equity, equity-linked or debt financing will be available on terms favorable to us or our stockholders, or at all. It is also
possible that we may allocate significant amounts of capital towards products or technologies for which market demand is lower than expected and, as a result, abandon such efforts. If we are unable to maintain our current financing or obtain
adequate additional financing when we require it, or if we obtain financing on terms which are not favorable to us, or if we expend capital on products or technologies that are unsuccessful, our ability to continue to support our business
growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, or we may be required to delay the development, commercialization and marketing of our products.
Net cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash used in operating activities was $409 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $387 for the six months ended
June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily the result of no gain on debt extinguishment, an increase in net loss, a reduction in stock-based compensation related
to the CEO transition in the first quarter of 2021 and net movements in asset and liability accounts, offset by increased depreciation and amortization expense primarily related to intangible assets acquired through the Ra Medical and TheraClear
asset acquisitions. The decrease in cash flows from asset and liability accounts was primarily driven by an increase in inventories to avoid supply chain disruptions, a decrease in accrued compensation and the recognition of deferred service
revenue associated with assumed service contracts from Ra Medical, offset by an increase in accounts payable.
Net cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash used in investing activities was $2,141 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $1,466 for the six months ended
June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily the result of the asset purchase of TheraClear.
There were no cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
Commitments and Contingencies
There were no items, except as described above with respect to the potential future earnout payments related to the TheraClear asset acquisition and Development Agreement, that significantly
impacted our commitments and contingencies as discussed in the notes to our 2021 annual financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
| ITEM 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
|
Not applicable.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)), as of June 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure
controls and procedures were effective.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of inherent
limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within an organization have been detected. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met and, as set forth above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the
period covered by this Report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system were met.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.

Legal Proceedings
|
On April 1, 2022, a proposed representative class action under California’s Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”) was filed in Superior Court of California, County of San Diego against the Company and an
employment agency (“Co-Defendant”) which provided the Company with temporary employees. The complaint alleges various violations of the California Labor Code, including California’s wage and hour laws,
relating to current and former non-exempt employees of the Company. The complaint seeks class status and payments for allegedly unpaid compensation and attorney’s fees. In a related matter, the attorneys in this matter and the proposed class
representative, in a letter dated March 12, 2022, to the California Labor & Workforce Development Agency made nearly identical claims seeking the right to pursue a PAGA action against the Company and the employment agency. On or about May 16,
2022, the plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint adding a PAGA claim to the action. On or about June 2, 2022, the plaintiff filed an Application to Dismiss Class and Individual Claim without prejudice, in an attempt to pursue a PAGA only
complaint. On or about June 30, 2022, the parties entered into a stipulation to allow the plaintiff to file a Second Amended Complaint to clarify the PAGA claim and to stay the pending action to allow an attempt at resolution at a mediation
scheduled for February 23, 2023. On July 7, 2022, the Company and the Co-Defendant each filed its respective Notice of Appearance that each intended to defend against the claims.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is, from time to time, subject to audits performed by state taxing authorities. These actions and proceedings are generally based
on the position that the arrangements entered into by the Company are subject to sales and use tax rather than exempt from tax under applicable law. Several states have assessed the Company an aggregate of $2.4 million including penalties and
interest for the period from March 2014 through April 2020. An administrative state judge in the State of New York issued an opinion in January 2021 finding in favor of the Company that the sale of XTRAC treatment codes was not taxable as sales
tax with respect to that state’s first assessment. This ruling covers $1.5 million of the total $2.4 million of assessments. The relevant taxing authority filed an appeal of the administrative law judge’s finding and, following the submission
of legal briefs by both sides and oral argument held in January 2022, on May 6, 2022, the Company received a written decision from the State of New York Tax Appeals Tribunal (“Tribunal”) overturning the favorable sales tax determination
of the administrative law judge. The Company has until September 6, 2022 to file an appeal of the Tribunal’s decision.
Additionally, from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings, incidental to the normal course of our business. These may include controversies relating to
contract claims and employment related matters, some of which claims may be material, in which case, we will make separate disclosure as required.
