Amendment Description	EXPLANATORY NOTECutera, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “Cutera”), is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-Q (this “Amendment” or “Form 10Q/A”) to amend and restate certain items in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 9, 2023 (the “Original 10-Q”, and, as amended by this Amendment, the “Quarterly Report”) to reflect the restatement of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 contained in the Original 10-Q (the “Restatement”).Background of RestatementAs previously reported in the Form 8-K filed on December 21, 2023, the Company performed a physical inventory count at the end of the third quarter of its fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. The physical inventory count identified a shortfall of inventory relative to the Company's system of record, resulting in an error overstating the inventory in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023 and corresponding understatement of cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods then ended. The Company concluded that a restatement was necessary to correct the misstatement in inventory, cost of revenue, and disclosures of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the first and second quarters of the 2023 fiscal year. The Company also determined to correct other misstatements that were identified and deemed immaterial in previous periods, as further detailed in Note 1 – Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements.On December 21, 2023, the Board of Directors of Cutera, upon recommendation of its Audit Committee, and in consultation with management of the Company and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”), concluded that certain items of the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the fiscal periods ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for such periods should no longer be relied upon and that the Company needed to restate these previously issued financial statements. Similarly, earnings releases, and investor communications describing the financial statements for the periods described above should no longer be relied upon.For a more detailed description of the financial impact of the Restatement, see Note 1 – Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Amendment and “Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements” under Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contained in this Amendment.Concurrently with the filing of this Amendment, the Company is filing an amendment to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of and for the period ended March 31, 2023.Internal Control ConsiderationsThe Company’s management identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, which were previously identified in connection with, and disclosed in, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on April 7, 2023, as amended on May 1, 2023, and the Company’s, condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. In connection with the Company's review and preparation of its financial statements leading to the Restatement, management identified an additional material weakness. Specifically, the Company failed to design, maintain and monitor a risk assessment program at a sufficiently precise level and therefore failed to identify new and evolving risks related to accounting policies, procedures and related controls performed over areas including, but not limited to inventory, revenues and lease income, costs for leased devices, and testing of certain key reports used in controls. Consequently, the Company failed to timely implement new controls to respond to changes in the business and leadership.A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Therefore, the Company’s management concluded that material weaknesses remain in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023. For further information regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, see Part I, Item 4, “Controls and Procedures”, included in this Amendment.Items Amended in the Form 10-Q/AThe following items are amended and restated in their entirety in this Amendment: (i) Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements”; Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”; and Item 4, “Controls and Procedures”; and (ii) Part II, Item 6, “Exhibits”. Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), this Amendment also contains new currently dated certifications by the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.Except as described above, this Amendment does not amend, update or change any other disclosures in the Original 10-Q. In addition, the information contained in this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original 10-Q and does not modify or update the disclosures therein. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original 10-Q have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that occurred or facts that became known to the Company after the date of the Original 10-Q, other than with respect to the Restatement, and such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's filings with the SEC, including those subsequent to the filing of the Original 10-Q. Unless otherwise stated or unless the context otherwise requires, defined terms used throughout this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original 10-Q.
