NOTE 1.     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 in the cosmetic and surgical markets. Known for its innovative Helium Plasma Technology, Apyx is solely focused on bringing transformative solutions to the physicians and patients they serve. It's Helium Plasma Technology is marketed and sold as Renuvion® in the cosmetic surgery market and J-Plasma® in the hospital surgical market. Renuvion® offers plastic surgeons, fascial plastic surgeons and cosmetic physicians a unique ability to provide controlled heat to the tissue to achieve their desired results. The J-Plasma® system allows surgeons to operate with a high level of precision, virtually eliminating unintended tissue trauma. The Company also leverages its deep expertise and decades of experience in unique waveforms through original equipment manufacturing (OEM) agreements with other medical device manufacturers.

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the level of economic activity around the world. The extent of the impact of the pandemic on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the responses and information related to it continue to change rapidly. As elective surgery cases using the Company’s Helium Plasma Technology have started to increase again, it is unknown whether these trends will continue. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may materially and adversely impact the Company’s future financial position, liquidity, or results of operations remains uncertain.

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, 2020. 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.


NOTE 2.     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). The update changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, contract assets, held-to-maturity debt securities and loans, and requires entities to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. This update, as originally issued, was effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) Effective Dates, which deferred the effective dates of these standards for Smaller Reporting Companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company currently expects to continue to qualify as a Smaller Reporting Company, based upon the current SEC definition, and as a result, will be utilizing the deferred elective date. While we are in the process of determining the effects of the adoption of the standard on the consolidated financial statements, we do not expect the impact to be material.

No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year had or is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

NOTE 3.     DISPOSAL OF BUSINESS

On August 30, 2018, the Company closed on a definitive asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with Specialty Surgical Instrumentation Inc., a Tennessee Corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Symmetry Surgical Inc. (“Symmetry”), pursuant to which the Company divested and sold the Company's electrosurgical "Core" business segment and related intellectual property, including the Bovie® brand and trademarks, to Symmetry for gross proceeds of $97 million in cash.

In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an Electro Surgical Disposables and Accessories, Cauteries and Other Products Supply Agreement with Symmetry for a four-year term, whereby it will manufacture certain Core products and sell them to Symmetry at agreed upon prices. Any activity resulting from this agreement is netted and reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as other income (loss). Core activity for the three months ended March 31, 2021, amounted to $1.5 million with cost of sales equivalents of $1.2 million and other related expenses of $0.3 million for net other loss of $0.1 million. Core activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020, amounted to $2.5 million with cost of sales equivalents of $2.2 million and related operating income of $0.2 million for net other income of $0.4 million.

NOTE 7.     EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“basic EPS”) is computed by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share (“diluted EPS”) gives effect to all dilutive potential shares outstanding. As the Company is in a net loss position for all periods presented, all potential shares outstanding are anti-dilutive.

NOTE 8.     STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Under the Company's stock option plans, the board of directors may grant restricted stock and options to purchase common shares to the Company's employees, officers, directors and consultants. The Company accounts for stock options in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, with stock-based compensation expense recognized over the vesting period based on the fair value on the grant date utilizing the Black Scholes model, which includes a number of estimates that affect the grant date fair value and the amount of expense to recognize.

The Company recognized approximately $1,194,000 and $1,049,000, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Stock option activity is summarized as follows:
Number of optionsWeighted average exercise price
Outstanding at December 31, 20204,938,943 $5.46 
Granted700,980 9.29

Canceled and forfeited(36,401)8.47 
Outstanding at March 31, 20215,559,440 $5.93 

The Company allows stock option holders to exercise stock-based awards by surrendering stock-based awards with an intrinsic value equal to the cumulative exercise price of the stock-based awards being exercised, referred to as net settlements. These surrenders are included in stock options exercised in the options rollforward above. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, we received 15,441 and 1,924 options as payment in the exercise of 21,141 and 4,362 options.

Common shares required to be issued upon the exercise of stock options would be issued from authorized and unissued shares. The Company calculated the grant date fair value of options granted in 2021 ("2021 Grants") utilizing a Black Scholes model with an expected life calculated via the simplified method.

NOTE 9.     INCOME TAXES

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the CARES Act to provide relief from COVID-19. The CARES Act includes a provision that allows companies to carryback net operating losses (NOL’s) generated in the period 2018 through 2020 to prior years. In conjunction with the disposition of the Core business in 2018, we generated a significant amount of taxable income in 2018. Subsequently, we generated net losses in 2019 and 2020. For the net losses generated in 2019, we previously recorded a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets associated with our NOL carryforwards due to realization of the NOL not being probable under then existing tax law. The CARES Act makes these assets realizable and, as of the date of the CARES Act, we have recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $3.7 million associated with the release of the valuation allowance on our Federal NOL carryforward related to 2019. During the first quarter of 2020, we also recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $1.2 million, related to our loss before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Our income tax expense (benefit) was approximately $66,000 and $(4,905,000) with an effective tax rate of (1.4)% and 71.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the effective
10

Table of Contents
APYX MEDICAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
(Unaudited)


rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the full valuation allowance recorded on the NOL generated during the period, combined with interest and penalties on our uncertain tax positions. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the effective rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the release of the valuation allowance on our NOL carryforward from 2019.

We have gross unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $1,313,000 at March 31, 2021. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in our condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2021, we had approximately $394,000 in accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits. Included in the income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, are approximately $48,000 and $43,000 of interest and penalties on the Company's uncertain tax positions. If the Company were to prevail on all uncertain tax positions, the resulting impact will be material as the Company will recognize approximately $1,707,000 of income tax benefits in the consolidated statement of operations. It is expected that all of the uncertain tax positions should be resolved by October 2022.


NOTE 10.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The medical device industry is characterized by frequent claims and litigation, and the Company may become subject to various claims, lawsuits and proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. Such claims may include claims by current or former employees, distributors and competitors, claims concerning the marketing and promotion of our products and product liability claims.

The Company is involved in a number of legal actions relating to the use of our Helium Plasma technology. The outcomes of these legal actions are not within the Company’s complete control and may not be known for prolonged periods of time. It believes that such claims are adequately covered by insurance; however, in the case of one of the Company’s carriers, the Company is in a dispute regarding the total level of coverage available. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the opinion of management, the Company has meritorious defenses, and such claims are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material, adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. However, in the event that damages exceed the aggregate coverage limits of the Company’s policies or if its insurance carriers disclaim coverage, management believes it is possible that costs associated with these claims could have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company accrues a liability in its consolidated financial statements for these actions when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is recorded. If a loss is reasonably possible, but not known or probable, and can be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. In most cases, significant judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of a loss to be recorded, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Purchase Commitments

At March 31, 2021, the Company had purchase commitments totaling approximately $3,300,000, substantially all of which is expected to be purchased within the next six months.

Antoaneta Dimitrova Shileva-Toromanova, Mr. Shilev’s sister, is the manager of human resources. Svetoslav Shilev, Mr. Shilev’s son, is a quality manager in the quality assurance department.

The partner in the Company's China joint venture is also a supplier of the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company made purchases from this supplier of approximately $116,000 and $586,000, respectively. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company owed this supplier approximately $6,000 and $38,000.

NOTE 12.     GEOGRAPHIC AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments only if they exhibit similar economic characteristics. In addition to similar economic characteristics, the Company also considers the following factors in determining the reportable segments: the nature of business activities, the management structure directly accountable to its chief operating decision maker for operating and administrative activities, availability of discrete financial information and information presented to the Board of Directors and investors. Asset information is not reviewed by the chief operating decision maker by segment and is not available by segment, accordingly, the Company has not presented a measure of assets by segment.

The Company's reportable segments are disclosed as principally organized and managed as two operating segments: Advanced Energy and OEM. "Corporate & Other" includes certain unallocated corporate and administrative costs which were not specifically attributed to any reportable segment. The OEM segment is primarily development and manufacturing contract and product driven, all related expenses are recorded as cost of sales, therefore no segment specific operating expenses are incurred.

Summarized financial information with respect to reportable segments is as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors discussed in this report and those discussed in other documents we file with the SEC. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements represent beliefs and assumptions as of the date of this report. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements and at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if our estimates change. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Executive Level Overview

We are an advanced energy technology company with a passion for elevating people’s lives through innovative products in the cosmetic and surgical markets. Known for our innovative Helium Plasma Technology, Apyx is solely focused on bringing transformative solutions to the physicians and patients it serves. Our Helium Plasma Technology is marketed and sold as Renuvion® in the cosmetic surgery market and J-Plasma® in the hospital surgical market. Renuvion® offers plastic surgeons, fascial plastic surgeons and cosmetic physicians a unique ability to provide controlled heat toe tissue to achieve their desired results. The J-Plasma® system allows surgeons to operate with a high level of precision, virtually eliminating unintended tissue trauma. We also leverage our deep expertise and decades of experience in unique waveforms through OEM agreements with other medical device manufacturers.

We continue to drive sales in our Advanced Energy business by increasing the adoption and utilization of our handpieces in the U.S. cosmetic surgery market and fulfilling demand from distributors in our international markets. Management estimates that our products have been sold in more than 55 countries. As of March 31, 2021, we had a direct sales force of 31 field-based selling professionals and utilized 2 independent sales agencies. We also had 5 sales managers. This selling organization is focused on the use of Renuvion® in the cosmetic surgery market. In addition, we have invested in both in-person and virtual training programs and marketing-related activities to support accelerated adoption of Renuvion® into physicians' practices.

In regards to our operating segments, our results are aggregated into reportable segments only if they exhibit similar economic characteristics. In addition to similar economic characteristics, we also consider the following factors in determining the reportable segments: the nature of business activities, the management structure directly accountable to our chief operating decision maker for operating and administrative activities, availability of discrete financial information, and information presented to the Board of Directors and investors. Asset information is not reviewed by the chief operating decision maker by segment and is not available by segment and, accordingly, we have not presented a measure of assets by reportable segment.

Our reportable segments are disclosed as principally organized and managed as two operating segments: Advanced Energy and OEM. "Corporate & Other" includes certain unallocated corporate and administrative costs which are not specifically attributed to any reportable segment. The OEM segment is primarily development and manufacturing contract and product driven, and all related expenses are recorded as cost of sales, therefore no segment specific operating expenses are incurred.

We strongly encourage investors to visit our website: www.apyxmedical.com to view the most current news and to review our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Impact of COVID-19

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("2020 Form 10-K"), an outbreak of a novel strain of the coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in China and subsequently recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. While the situation shows signs of improvement in certain countries, the COVID-19 outbreak generally continues to severely restrict the level of economic activity around the world. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions have taken preventative or protective actions, such as imposing restrictions on travel and business operations and advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time outside of their homes. Temporary closures of businesses in some jurisdictions were ordered, and numerous other businesses closed permanently. Many other businesses continue to be operated at reduced capacity.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued

As vaccines have become more available, the number of COVID-19 cases has declined in the United States and various other countries, and economic conditions have improved. However, uncertainty remains regarding the extent, timing, and duration of the pandemic, including the extent to which the availability of these vaccines will positively impact public health conditions and whether new, potentially more contagious variants may pose additional public health risks. The pandemic continues to cause uncertainty and potential economic volatility, including with regard to the pandemic’s various and unpredictable impacts on our customers and our business.

Any future significant reductions in business-related activities could result in further loss of sales and profits and other material adverse effects. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning actions taken to contain or prevent further spread of the virus, or its newly forming variants, within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

While our revenues were affected by the continued impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, starting in the latter half of 2020 we saw strong utilization of our Renuvion® handpieces from existing customers in the U.S., along with shipments to several new customers in our international markets, which helped to offset sluggish global demand for capital equipment. Throughout this event, we continued our efforts to support our customers during this challenging time.

While we were also pleased to see overall improvements in our Advanced Energy business trends starting in the latter half of 2020, demand for handpieces remains uneven across, and within, the primary markets that we serve, and global demand trends for generator adoption continue to remain in the early stages of recovery. Although the timing of a return to a more normalized environment remains uncertain, we remain cautiously optimistic with respect to the continued recovery of the cosmetic and plastic surgery market.

We source the components used in our products from a variety of suppliers and we have collaborative arrangements with three key foreign suppliers. At this time our suppliers have experienced no significant disruptions as a result of COVID-19. We have experienced minor delays in our procurement from these suppliers as a result of the availability of shipping from third party freight carriers. These delays have not, to date, had a significant impact on our operations.

We continue to closely monitor developments related to COVID-19 that may impact our operations and financial performance, and continue our efforts to support our employees and customers in the following areas:

Protecting the Health and Safety of our Employees: To reduce the risk to our employees and their families to potential exposure to COVID-19, we have required that all non-essential employees work remotely until further notice. We also split the shifts of our manufacturing personnel to allow for adequate social distancing, and require all personnel to utilize personal protective equipment while on site at our facilities. We also significantly reduced business travel and outside access to our facilities.
Maintaining Engagement of or Sales Team and Our Customers: In addition to the initiatives we put in place to protect health and safety for all employees, we focused our direct sales team on remaining in close contact with their existing surgeon customers to do everything they can to provide them with support during this difficult time. With this goal in mind, we implemented additional training for our sales reps in order to sharpen their ability to engage with our customers virtually. In addition to engaging with existing customers via virtual methods, our sales representatives also continued to target and reach out to prospective customers, and outside the U.S., we continued to monitor the activities of our distributor partners and helped them navigate the challenges they faced as a result of the slower demand they have seen in their respective countries.
Operating Expenses: Given the uncertainty surrounding the impacts that COVID-19 could have on our business, we took preemptive steps to curtail spending, including implementing hiring restrictions,reducing discretionary spending, reducing capital expenditures, and delaying certain R&D projects and clinical research studies. Taking into account the early signs of improving economic environment and conditions related to COVID-19, we have started to ease these measures in certain areas. However, we will continue to monitor any future developments related to the pandemic and may reinstate them if necessary.
Governmental Policy: On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the CARES Act to provide relief from COVID-19. We have taken advantage of certain provisions of the CARES Act which are applicable to us, including utilizing net operating loss (NOL) carryback provisions. Utilizing these provisions significantly mitigated the working capital impact COVID-19 has had on our sales and operations.

Total revenue increased by 72.9%, or approximately $3.6 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared with the three months ended March 31, 2020. Advanced Energy segment sales increased 92.2%, or approximately $3.7 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared with the three months ended March 31, 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, we saw increased global demand for both our handpieces and generators. While demand for generators in certain geographic regions continues to be affected by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced strong sales volumes overall during the first quarter.

International sales represented approximately 35.6% and 27.6% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Management estimates our products have been sold in more than 55 countries through local dealers coordinated by sales and marketing personnel through our facilities in Clearwater, Florida and Sofia, Bulgaria.

Percentage of sales43.1 %76.0 %

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, selling, general and administrative expense decreased (1.9)%, primarily driven by decreases in travel and entertainment expense ($0.4 million), advertising, including show fees and related costs ($0.3 million), and bad debt expenses ($0.3 million). These decreases were partially offset by higher commissions on Advanced Energy sales ($0.6 million), accrued OEM product recall costs ($0.2 million) and higher insurance expense ($0.1 million).

Percentage of sales(1.1)%8.5 %

Interest income decreased (98.6)% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with the same period in the prior year. This decrease is due to a lower yield, as well as a lower average balance, on our investments in U.S. Treasury securities included in cash and cash equivalents.

Other (loss) income, net decreased (121.8)% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared with the same period in the prior year. This decrease is primarily due to the receipt of refunds in the first quarter 2020 on tariffs paid in 2019.

Income tax expense (benefit)$66 $(4,905)(101.3)%
Effective tax rate(1.4)%71.5 %

Our income tax expense (benefit) was approximately $66,000 and $(4,905,000) with an effective tax rate of (1.4)% and 71.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the effective rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the full valuation allowance recorded on the NOL generated during the period, combined with interest and penalties on our uncertain tax positions. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the effective rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the release of the valuation allowance on our NOL carryforward from 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our working capital at March 31, 2021 was approximately $53.3 million compared with $56.9 million at December 31, 2020. The decrease in working capital from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 was primarily due to the net loss incurred by the Company during the first quarter of 2021, excluding non-cash activity, comprised primarily of stock-based compensation expense.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was approximately $2.1 million, which

principally funded our loss from operations of $4.7 million, compared with net cash used in operating activities of approximately $7.4 million in the same period for 2020.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $0.2 million, related to investments in property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was approximately $0.1 million, related to purchases of property and equipment.

At March 31, 2021, we had purchase commitments totaling approximately $3.3 million, substantially all of which is expected to be purchased within the next six months.

Critical Accounting Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), we have adopted various accounting policies. Our most significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2020 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2021.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to inventories, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, legal proceedings, research and development, warranty obligations, product liability, sales returns and discounts, stock-based compensation and income taxes are updated as appropriate, which in most cases is at least quarterly. We base our estimates on historical experience, or various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and the results form the basis for making judgments about the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates.

Estimates are considered to be critical if they meet both of the following criteria: (1) the estimate requires assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made and (2) other materially different estimates could have been reasonably made or material changes in the estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Our critical accounting estimates include the following:

Stock-based Compensation

Under our stock option plans, options to purchase common shares of the Company may be granted to employees, officers and directors of the Company by the Board of Directors. We account for stock options in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation, with compensation expense recognized over the vesting period. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes model, which includes a number of estimates that affect the amount of our expense. We have determined that the most critical of these estimates are the estimates of expected life and volatility used in the calculations.

Expected life

For employee stock-based compensation awards, we estimate the expected life of awards utilizing the SEC's simplified method. We utilize this method, as we have not historically granted stock-based compensation awards to employees in sufficient volumes to determine a reasonable estimate of the life of awards. For awards granted to non-employees, we calculate expected life using a combination of past exercise behavior, the contractual term and expected remaining exercise behavior.

Volatility

We determine the volatility by utilizing the historical volatility of our stock over the period of the awards expected life. The SEC allows us to include periods in excess of the useful life if we determine that they provide a more reasonable basis for the volatility of our stock. Additionally, ASC 718-10 allows us to exclude periods from the volatility if they pertain to events or circumstances that in our judgment are specific to us and if the event or transaction is not reasonably expected to occur again during the expected term of the awards. We have not included any additional periods, nor disregarded any periods, in calculating our volatility.

Accounts Receivable Allowance

We maintain a reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable. When evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we analyze specific unremitted customer balances for known collectability issues, review historical bad debt experience, customer credit worthiness and economic trends, and we make estimates in connection with establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, including the future impacts of current trends. Changes in estimates are reflected in the period they are made. If the financial condition of our customers deteriorates, resulting in an inability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
21

APYX MEDICAL CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued

Inventory Obsolescence Allowance

We maintain a reserve for excess and obsolete inventory resulting from the potential inability to sell our products at prices in excess of current carrying costs. The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, with new products and surgical procedures introduced on an ongoing basis. Such marketplace changes may cause our products to become obsolete. We make estimates regarding the future recoverability of the costs of these products and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based on historical experience and expected future trends. If actual product life cycles, product demand or acceptance of new product introductions are less favorable than projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required, which would unfavorably affect future operating results.

Litigation Contingencies

In accordance with authoritative guidance, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements for these actions when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is accrued. If a loss is reasonably possible, but not known or probable, and can be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. In most cases, significant judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of a loss to be recorded; actual results may differ from these estimates.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state and local income taxes currently payable and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted marginal tax rates. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period.

As a result of historical losses, and our expectation to continue to generate losses in the near future, we recorded a valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets. Exclusive of the carryback provisions of the CARES Act and the associated income tax benefit recognized in 2020, we do not anticipate recording an income tax benefit related to these deferred tax assets. We will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets each reporting period and will be able to reduce the valuation allowance to the extent the financial results of continuing operations improve, and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realizable. As management expects the Company to continue to generate losses in the foreseeable future after 2020, we will continue to record a valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets balance as of March 31, 2021.

We assess the financial statement impact of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized in the financial statements unless it is more likely than not of being sustained.

Inflation

Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of our Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements at this time.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2021, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We rely extensively on information systems to manage our business and summarize and report our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In 2020, we began the implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, which replaced much of our existing core financial systems in the first quarter of 2021. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain our financial records, enhance the flow of financial information, improve data management and provide timely information to our management team.

As a result of this implementation, certain internal controls over financial reporting have been automated, modified or implemented to address the new environment associated with this type of system. While we believe that this new system will strengthen our internal controls, there are inherent risks in implementing any new system, and we will continue to evaluate these control changes as part of our assessment of internal control over financial reporting throughout 2021.
