Apyx Medical Corp.: Q3 FY2026 earnings call

What management said about Q3 FY2026, from the documents filed with the SEC on 5 November 2026: press release. Guidance figures: 1 lowered, 3 kept. The quarter’s numbers.

Key takeaways

  • Third-quarter revenue grew 9%: Total revenue reached $14.0 million, against $12.9 million a year earlier. Surgical Aesthetics was the main contributor, while OEM declined. Source
  • Adjusted EBITDA moved above breakeven: Adjusted EBITDA came in at $0.4 million, compared with a $0.1 million loss a year earlier. The release reconciles this non-GAAP measure to GAAP net loss. Source
  • Surgical Aesthetics segment expanded: Surgical Aesthetics revenue rose $1.9 million to about $13.0 million, led by AYON sales and international generator sales. Source
  • OEM revenue declined on volume: OEM revenue was about $1.1 million, down $0.8 million from $1.8 million, reflecting lower volume from existing customers. Source
  • Power liposuction handpiece fully launched: The reusable handpiece for AYON moved from limited launch in the second quarter to full commercial launch in the third quarter, after early adopter feedback. Source
  • Operating expenses rose on salaries: Operating expenses were $9.6 million against $9.1 million a year earlier, with salaries up $0.4 million and SG&A up $0.2 million, partly offset by lower professional services. Source
  • Gross margin held near 64%: Gross margin was 64.2% against 64.4% a year earlier. Gross profit rose 8% to $9.0 million. Source
  • Operating cash outflow narrowed: Net cash used in operating activities was $1.6 million, compared with $3.5 million a year earlier. Management attributed the change mainly to working capital and a smaller net loss. Source

“We are pleased to report 17% growth in our Surgical Aesthetics business for the quarter, reflecting continued adoption of AYON and the progress we are making in executing our commercial strategy”
