EXHIBIT 99.1



STRATA Skin Sciences Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results


Horsham, Pa, August 10, 2022 —STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: SSKN), a medical technology company dedicated to developing, commercializing and marketing innovative products for the treatment of dermatologic conditions, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
 
Recent Highlights
Revenue in the second quarter 2022 of $9.1 million a 23% increase over the second quarter of 2021
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022 were $10.0 million
Domestic installed base increased to 915 XTRAC devices
Entered the estimated $5.5 billion acne care market with initial commercial launch of TheraClear®X, an FDA-cleared device for in-office treatment of acne
Appointed Michael E. Goodman to the executive leadership team as head of international sales

“STRATA’s strong commercial execution continued into the second quarter of 2022, capping off a great first half of the year,” said Bob Moccia, Chief Executive Officer of STRATA Skin Sciences. “We were able to increase our XTRAC installed base, expand usage within existing accounts, convert additional Pharos customers to the XTRAC partnership model and increase our international footprint. I believe that this momentum will carry into the second half of 2022 and set up a strong 2023 and beyond.”

“We were also pleased to announce the introduction of our TheraClearX acne treatment device. Since our asset acquisition of this system in January of this year, we refined our marketing strategy and trained our salesforce on the benefits of the device in the treatment of acne. Throughout the second half of 2022, we plan to continue to build inventory and gather feedback from customers in select regions in anticipation of an expanded launch in 2023. Our investment in this product enables us to now address the estimated $5.5 billion acne care market with the potential to reach other dermatologic application end markets, which we plan to research and develop in the future,” concluded Moccia.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were $9.1 million, as compared to revenues of $7.4 million for the second quarter of 2021. Global recurring revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were $5.6 million, as compared to global recurring revenues of $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2021. Equipment revenues were $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2021.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2022 was $5.0 million, or 55% of revenues, as compared to $4.8 million, or 65% of revenues, for the second quarter of 2021. The lower gross margin in the quarter was primarily due to the increase in intangible amortization expenses associated with the recent asset acquisitions of TheraClear and the acquisition of RA Medical's U.S. dermatology business.  Adjusted gross margin excluding amortization (as noted in the table below), was 61% compared to 66% in the second quarter of 2021.
 
Selling and marketing costs for the second quarter of 2022 were $4.1 million, as compared to $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2021. General and administrative costs for the second quarter of 2022 were $2.3 million, as compared to $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2021.
 
Other expense for the second quarter of 2022 was $0.2 million as compared to other income of $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2021.
 



 
Net loss for second quarter 2022 was $1.9 million, or a loss of $0.05 per basic and diluted common share, as compared to the net income for the second quarter of 2021 of $1.1 million, or net earnings of $0.03 per basic and diluted common share.

Financial Outlook
STRATA continues to expect full year 2022 revenue to range from $33.0 million to $35.0 million, representing 10% to 17% year over year growth.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance, including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, Gross Domestic Recurring Billings and non-GAAP gross profit.
 
The Company’s reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared under current accounting standards, but is not a substitute for, nor superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of our current financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes.

Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results and business outlook. In addition, the Company believes non-GAAP measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods. Reconciliation of the GAAP measures of net loss to non-GAAP measures included in this press release is as follows (in thousands) (unaudited):
