EXHIBIT 99.1

Apyx Medical Corporation Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results;
Reaffirms Full Year 2024 Financial Outlook

CLEARWATER, FL — May 9, 2024 - Apyx Medical Corporation (NASDAQ:APYX) (“Apyx Medical;” the “Company”), the manufacturer of a proprietary helium plasma and radiofrequency technology marketed and sold as Renuvion®, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2024; and reaffirmed its financial expectations for the full year ending December 31, 2024

First Quarter 2024 Financial Summary:

•Total revenue of $10.2 million, a decrease of 16% year-over-year.
◦Advanced Energy revenue of $7.5 million, a decrease of 23% year-over-year.
◦OEM revenue of $2.8 million, an increase of 14% year-over-year.
•Net loss attributable to stockholders of $7.6 million, an increase of $4.1 million, or 118%, year-over-year.
•Adjusted EBITDA loss of $5.3 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 34%, year-over-year.

First Quarter 2024 Operating Summary and Developments Subsequent to Quarter-End:

•On January 22, 2024, the Company announced the publication of a peer-reviewed article in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal Open Forum, which evaluated the use of Renuvion for contracting subcutaneous soft tissue following liposuction in multiple areas of the body.
•On February 21, 2024, the Company announced that its Renuvion technology was featured in three educational sessions at the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery’s 40th Annual Scientific Meeting.
•On April 11, 2024, the Company announced that new data and treatment insights were showcased at the Company’s Renuvion Users’ Summit.
•On May 9, 2024, the Company announced the retirement of Andrew Makrides as Chairman of the Board, after serving the Company in this position since 1982. The Board of Directors has elected Stavros Vizirgianakis Chairman of the Board, effective May 7, 2024.

Management Comments:

“Our Advanced Energy revenue results in the first quarter were consistent with our previously stated expectations, as sales remained impacted by the challenging environment in the cosmetic surgery market,” said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As anticipated, Advanced Energy revenue was largely impacted by decreased generators sales, given continued concerns from potential customers about the macroeconomic environment and high interest rates.

Mr. Goodwin continued: “We are reaffirming our 2024 financial guidance today, which continues to assume that Advanced Energy generator demand will remain impacted by consumer reticence to purchase new capital equipment, offset in full, or in part, by growth in handpiece sales. From an operational standpoint, our team is focused on leveraging our enhanced portfolio of new clinical indications, new products and clinical evidence by raising awareness of these developments in the marketplace. We believe our financial resources enable us to pursue our strategic initiatives, and are committed to operating efficiently while positioning Apyx Medical for future growth and value creation when conditions improve.”

Total$10,244 $12,142 $(1,898)(15.6)%

First Quarter 2024 Results:

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased $1.9 million, or 16% year-over-year, to $10.2 million, compared to $12.1 million in the prior year period. Advanced Energy segment revenue decreased $2.2 million, or 23% year-over-year, to $7.5 million. OEM segment revenue increased $0.3 million, or 14% year-over-year, to $2.8 million, compared to $2.5 million in the prior year period. The decrease in Advanced Energy revenue was primarily due to domestic sales, with sales of generators decreasing as a result of economic uncertainty in the capital equipment market within the aesthetic space, as well as a decrease in single-use handpieces over the same period in 2023. The increase in OEM segment revenue was due to increased sales volume to Symmetry Surgical under our 10-year generator manufacturing and supply agreement. Domestic sales decreased $1.9 million, or 21% year-over-year, to $7.0 million, and international revenue was flat year-over-year at $3.3 million.

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased $1.6 million, or 21% year-over-year, to $5.9 million, compared to $7.6 million in the prior year period. Gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was 58.1%, compared to 62.4% in the prior year period. The decrease in gross profit margins was primarily attributable to changes in sales mix between the OEM and Advanced Energy segments, with the OEM segment comprising a higher percentage of revenue and geographic mix within the Advanced Energy segment, with international revenue comprising a higher percentage of total revenue.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased $0.6 million, or 5% year-over-year, to $12.6 million, compared to $13.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease in operating expenses was driven by a $0.4 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, a $0.2 million decrease in salaries and related costs and a $0.2 million decrease in professional services expenses. These decreases were partially offset by a $0.1 million increase in research and development expenses.

Other loss, net for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.9 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The change was driven primarily by increased interest expense on higher outstanding borrowings compared to the prior year period.

apyx-medicalxregxwxtaglinea.jpg
Income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.1 million and $(2.3) million, respectively.

Net loss attributable to stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $7.6 million, or $0.22 per share, compared to $3.5 million, or $0.10 per share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $5.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively.

Full Year 2024 Financial Outlook:

The Company is reaffirming its financial guidance for the year ending December 31, 2024:

•Total revenue in the range of $49.7 million to $52.9 million, representing a decrease of approximately 5% to growth of approximately 1% year-over-year, compared to total revenue of $52.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
◦Total revenue guidance assumes:
▪Advanced Energy revenue in the range of $41.6 million to $44.6 million, representing a decrease of approximately 4% to growth of approximately 3% year-over-year, compared to Advanced Energy revenue of $43.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
▪OEM revenue in the range of $8.1 million to $8.3 million, representing a decrease of 10% to 7% year-over-year, compared to $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

•Net loss attributable to stockholders of approximately $26.5 million to $24.3 million, compared to $18.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
