Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On May 17, 2019, STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market (“Nasdaq”)
that, because the Company has not yet filed either of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 (the “10-Q”) or its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “10-K”) with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), the Company does not comply with the continued listing requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all periodic reports with the Commission.
As previously reported by the Company in its Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25, filed with the Commission on
May 16, 2019, the Company was unable to file the 10-Q within the prescribed period because the Company has changed its independent registered public accounting firm on May 10, 2019.
This notice from Nasdaq has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital
Market. The Company has until June 3, 2019 to either cure the deficiency or to submit a plan to Nasdaq showing how it intends to regain compliance. As previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 14,
2019, the Company intends to submit a compliance plan by such date. If Nasdaq accepts the plan submitted by the Company, Nasdaq can grant an extension of the grace period for shares of the Company’s common stock to remain listed for up to 180
calendar days from the 10-K’s due date, or until September 30, 2019, to regain compliance.

99.1 Press Release dated May 17, 2019 issued by
STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc.
Safe Harbor
This Current Report on Form 8-K, and oral statements made regarding the subjects of this release, contains
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, or the Reform Act, which may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s revenue growth estimates, plans, objectives,
expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts, including statements identified by words such as “believe,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “will,” and
similar expressions. All statements addressing the Company’s ability to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing requirements or to develop a plan acceptable to Nasdaq for an extension of the grace period to September 30, 2019, as well as
statements expressing optimism or pessimism about future operating results are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s current views and assumptions regarding
future events and operating performance, and are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies and changes in circumstances, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K are
made as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, even if subsequently made available by the Company on its website or otherwise. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise these statements to reflect events or
circumstances occurring after the date of this press release.
Although the Company does not make forward-looking statements unless it believes it has a reasonable basis for doing
so, the Company cannot guarantee their accuracy. The foregoing factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements. For a list of other factors which could affect the
Company’s results, including revenue growth estimates, see the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” and “Item 7. Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. No undue reliance should be placed on any forward-looking statements.
