Results and growth drivers

Segments and revenue mix

  • AYON drove Surgical Aesthetics growth: Surgical Aesthetics rose 36.1% to $10.7 million. Management attributed the increase to AYON sales after its third-quarter 2025 launch, international generator sales and more single-use handpieces. Source
  • Generator upgrades reduced domestic sales: Domestic generator sales fell, including Apyx One Console upgrades where AYON was not part of the sale. These decreases partly offset segment gains. Source
  • OEM sales rose on existing customers: OEM revenue was about $1.8 million, up 13.8%. Management said the increase came from higher volumes to existing customers, while focus shifted toward Surgical Aesthetics. Source

“Taken together, this performance reinforces our confidence in the business and supports our decision to raise our revenue outlook for the full year 2026”
