BASIS OF PRESENTATION BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Apyx Medical Corporation (“Company”, “Apyx”, “it” and similar terms) was incorporated in 1982, under the laws of the State of Delaware and has its principal executive office at 5115 Ulmerton Road, Clearwater, FL 33760.

The Company is an advanced energy technology company with a passion for elevating people’s lives through innovative products, including its Helium Plasma Technology products marketed and sold as Renuvion® in the cosmetic surgery and J-Plasma® in the hospital surgical market. Renuvion® and J-Plasma® offer surgeons a unique ability to provide controlled heat to tissue to achieve their desired results. The Company also leverages its deep expertise and decades of experience in unique waveforms through OEM agreements with other medical device manufacturers.

On March 14, 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) posted a Safety Communication that warns consumers and health care providers against the use of the Company’s Advanced Energy products outside of their FDA-cleared indications for general use in cutting, coagulation, and ablation of soft tissue during open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. Following the Safety Communication, the Company experienced slowed demand for the adoption of its Helium Plasma Technology.

On May 26, 2022, the Company announced that it had received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the use of the Renuvion® Dermal Handpiece for specific dermal resurfacing procedures. On July 18, 2022, the Company announced that it had received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the use of the Renuvion® APR Handpiece for certain skin contraction procedures. Management believes that receiving these clearances should materially mitigate the financial effects of the Safety Communication in future periods.

On June 2, 2022, and July 21, 2022, FDA updated the Medical Device Safety Communication to recognize the new 510(k) clearances for the Renuvion® Dermal handpiece, and the expanded indications for the Renuvion® APR handpieces. The 510(k) clearance for the Renuvion® Dermal handpiece allows surgeons to perform dermal resurfacing procedures for the treatment of moderate to severe wrinkles and rhytides, limited to patients with Fitzpatrick Skin Types I, II or III. The 510(k) clearance for the Renuvion® APR handpieces now addresses improving the appearance of lax (loose) skin in the neck and submental region.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon SEC rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of management these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of consolidated operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
