Note 1

The Company:

Background

STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (and its subsidiary) ("STRATA" or "we" or the "Company") is a medical technology company focused on the therapeutic and aesthetic dermatology market. STRATA sales include the following products: XTRAC^® laser and VTRAC^® excimer lamp systems utilized in the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and various other skin conditions; the STRATAPEN™ MicroSystem, a micropigmentation device; and Nordlys, a multi-technology aesthetic laser device for treating vascular and pigmented lesions.

The XTRAC is an ultraviolet light excimer laser system utilized to treat psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin diseases. The XTRAC received FDA clearance in 2000 and has since become a recognized treatment among dermatologists. The system delivers targeted 308um ultraviolet light to affected areas of the skin, leading to psoriasis clearing and vitiligo repigmentation, following a series of treatments. As of June 30, 2017, there were 795 XTRAC systems placed in dermatologists' offices in the United States under the Company's recurring revenue business model. The XTRAC systems employed under the recurring revenue model generate revenue on a per procedure basis. The per-procedure charge is inclusive of the use of the system and the services provided by the Company to the customer which includes system maintenance, reimbursement support service and participation in the direct to patient marketing programs employed by the Company. The XTRAC system's use for psoriasis is covered by nearly all major insurance companies, including Medicare. The VTRAC Excimer Lamp system, offered in addition to the XTRAC system internationally, provides targeted therapeutic efficacy demonstrated by excimer technology with the simplicity of design and reliability of a lamp system.

Effective March 1, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement to license the exclusive US distribution rights for the Ellipse family of products, Nordlys, from Ellipse USA ("Ellipse") through December 31, 2019 (the "Initial Term"). If certain sales targets are met, the agreement will automatically be extended for two additional years. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will be the exclusive distributor of Ellipse lasers. The Company has agreed to minimum inventory purchases and to pay a monthly license fee of approximately $33, in addition to commissions for each system sold. As part of the transaction, the majority of sales and marketing professionals from Ellipse USA became employees of STRATA. The license fee amounts to approximately $1.1 million over the Initial Term. See Note 4, Intangibles, net, for additional information.

Effective February 1, 2017, the Company entered into an exclusive OEM distribution agreement with Esthetic Education, LLC to be the exclusive marketer and seller of private label versions of the SkinStylus MicroSystem and associated parts under the name of STRATAPen. This three-year agreement allows for two one year extensions.

Effective April 6, 2017, the Company completed a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-5 shares, and all data on common stock and equivalents are shown herein as reflective of this reverse stock split.

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $214,015 and had been incurring losses since inception as well as negative cash flows from operations until 2016. To date, the Company has dedicated most of its financial resources to research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.

Management believes that its cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017 combined with the anticipated revenues from the sale of the Company's products will be sufficient to satisfy its working capital needs, capital asset purchases, outstanding commitments, payments of the long-term debt as they become due and other liquidity requirements associated with its existing operations through the next twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-Q.

Basis of Presentation:

Accounting Principles

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Unaudited interim consolidated financial statements

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These consolidated statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to state fairly the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of cash flows and consolidated statements of stockholders' equity, for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017, or any other future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations for interim reporting of the SEC. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and other forms filed with the SEC from time to time.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications from the prior year presentation have been made to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in our 2016 Form 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the US requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those assumptions. As of June 30, 2017, the more significant estimates include (1) revenue recognition, in regards to deferred revenues and valuation allowances of accounts receivable, (2) the estimated useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, (3) the inputs used in determining the fair value of equity-based awards, (4) the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets and (5) the fair value of financial instruments, including derivative instruments.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and discloses fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC Topic 820"). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions there exists a three-tier fair-value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value.

The Company's recurring fair value measurements at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are as follows:

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents are based on their respective demand value, which are equal to the carrying value. The fair value of derivative warrant liabilities is estimated using option pricing models that are based on the individual characteristics of the Company's warrants, preferred and common stock, the derivative warrant liability on the valuation date as well as assumptions for volatility, remaining expected life, risk-free interest rate and, in some cases, credit spread. The derivative warrant liabilities are the only recurring Level 3 fair value measures. The carrying value of all other short-term monetary assets and liabilities is estimated to be approximate to their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company assessed its convertible debentures and long-term debt (including the current portion) and determined that the fair value of total debt was $21,503 as of June 30, 2017. As of December 31, 2016 the fair value of total debt approximated the recorded value of $20,082.

Several of the warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 have non-standard terms as they relate to a fundamental transaction and require a net-cash settlement upon change in control of the Company and other warrants contain full ratchet provisions that reduce the exercise price of the warrants in the event of a transaction resulting in the issuance of equity below the current price of the warrants. Therefore these warrants are classified as derivatives. These warrants have been recorded at their fair value using a binomial option pricing model and will be recorded at their respective fair value at each subsequent balance sheet date. See Note 8, Warrants, for additional discussion.

Earnings Per Share

Basic net loss per common share excludes dilution for potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share gives effect to dilutive options, warrants and other potential common shares outstanding during the period and their potential diluted effect is considered using the treasury method.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, diluted net loss per common share is equal to the basic net loss per common share since all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive. The loss on the change in fair value of the warrant liability was considered when calculating the diluted earnings per share and was deemed to be antidilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 diluted earnings per common share are computed by the numerator effected by the gain on the change in fair value of the warrant liability and the denominator is increased to include the number of additional potential common shares from the warrants underlying the warrant liability.

Diluted earnings per common share were calculated using the following net loss and weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016:

Potential common stock equivalents outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 consist of common stock equivalents of common stock purchase warrants, senior secured convertible debentures, convertible preferred stock and common stock options, which are summarized as follows:

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the current guidance, there are three elements of business: inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively, a "set") that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. In addition, all the inputs and processes that a seller uses in operating a set are not required if market participants can acquire the set and continue to produce outputs, for example, by integrating the acquired set with their own inputs and processes. The new guidance provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. For public business entities, the guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years, but can be adopted early. The Company has adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2017 and has applied the rules with its sub-distribution license with Ellipse and concluded that this transaction did not meet the definition of a business. As such, it has been accounted for as an asset acquisition. See Note 4, Intangibles, net.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), to simplify various aspects of the accounting and presentation of share-based payments, including the income tax effects of awards and forfeiture assumptions. Tax deductions in excess of compensation costs (excess tax benefits) were recorded in equity and tax deduction shortfalls (tax deficiencies), to the extent of previous excess tax benefits, were recorded in equity and then to income tax expense. Under the new guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recorded to income tax expense in the income statement, which could create volatility in the Company's income statement. The new guidance also changes the classification of excess tax benefits in the cash flow statement and impacts the diluted earnings per share calculation. Additionally, the new guidance permits to elect to account for forfeitures as they occur. The Company has made this election upon the adoption of this standard. The guidance became effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption was permitted. Different components of the guidance require prospective, retrospective and/or modified retrospective adoption. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes topic of the Codification. This standard requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and non-current amounts. In addition, valuation allowance allocations between current and non-current deferred tax assets are no longer required because those allowances also will be classified as non-current. This standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company's deferred tax assets are provided with a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, except the deferred tax liability related to goodwill amortization. As such, the adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, The FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330) ("ASU 2015-11"). ASU 2015-11 outlines that inventory within the scope of its guidance be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Prior to the issuance of ASU 2015-11, inventory was measured at the lower of cost or market (where market was defined as replacement cost, with a ceiling of net realizable value and floor of net realizable value less a normal profit margin). For a public entity, the amendments in ASU 2015-11 are effective, in a prospective manner, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period (the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 for the Company). The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new guidance eliminated Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test which was required in computing the implied fair value of goodwill. Instead, under the new amendments, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. If applicable, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss. The amendments in this guidance are effective for public business entities for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, This statement requires lessees to present right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the guidance will have on its financial condition and results of operations.

In May 2014, The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 also requires entities to disclose sufficient information, both quantitative and qualitative, to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. An entity should apply the amendments in this ASU using one of the following two methods: 1. retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with a possibility to elect certain practical expedients, or, 2. using the modified retrospective method with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application. If an entity elects the latter transition method, it also should provide certain additional disclosures. The new guidance will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. The ASU may change our accounting for the revenues from recurring procedures based upon the determination of when the Company has transferred control of the services. The potential impact of that change could increase or decrease our revenues in any given period and will depend, among others, on the estimated unused treatments as of the end of any reporting period. We are still evaluating the ASU for other potential impacts on our condensed consolidated financial statements. We currently plan to adopt the ASU using the "modified retrospective" approach, which requires the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance to be recognized as an adjustment to our accumulated deficit as of the January 1, 2018 adoption date.

Set forth below is a detailed listing of definite-lived intangible assets:

Related amortization expense was $1,014 and $908 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Estimated amortization expense for amortizable patents and licensed technologies assets for the future periods is as follows:

As discussed in Note 1, effective January 1, 2017 the Company follows the guidance in ASU 2017-01, which provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the new guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. The Company has determined that its transaction with Ellipse in the first quarter of 2017 is considered to be an acquisition of a single asset, therefore, the acquisition is not considered to be an acquisition of a business. The distribution rights asset has been assigned a value of $900 which is comprised of the present value of the license fee payments.

Note 6

Convertible Debentures:

In the following table is a summary of the Company's convertible debentures.

The Company issued $32,500 aggregate principal amount of Debentures (the "June 2015 Debentures") that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, will be convertible into 8,666,668 shares of Company common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.75 per share. The Debentures bear interest at the rate of 2.25% per year, and, unless previously converted, will mature on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance, June 22, 2020. As of June 30, 2017, the cumulative total conversions on the June 2015 Debentures was $750.

The June 2015 Debentures include a beneficial conversion feature valued at $27,300 that was recorded as a discount to the debentures. On the date of issuance the beneficial conversion feature value was calculated as the difference resulting from subtracting the conversion price of $3.75 from $6.90, the opening market value of the Company's common stock following the announcement of the transaction, multiplied by the number of common shares into which the June 2015 Debentures are convertible. This discount is being amortized over the five year life of the June 2015 Debentures using the effective interest method. The embedded conversion feature contains an anti-dilution provision that allows for downward exercise price adjustments in certain situations. The embedded conversion feature was not bifurcated as it did not meet all of the elements of a derivative.

On July 21, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with institutional investors (the "Investors") providing for the issuance of Senior Secured Convertible Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $15,000, due, subject to the terms therein, in July 2019 (the "July 2014 Debentures"), and warrants (the "July 2014 Series A Warrants") to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,239,769 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $12.25 per share expiring in July 2019. The July 2014 Debentures bear interest at an annual rate of 4%, payable quarterly or upon conversion into shares of common stock. The Debentures are convertible at any time into an aggregate of 1,169,595 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $12.825 per share. As of June 30, 2017, the cumulative total conversions on the July 2014 Debentures was $6,285. The Company's obligations under the July 2014 Debentures are secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company's intellectual property pursuant to the terms of a security agreement ("Security Agreement") dated July 21, 2014 among the Company and the Investors. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors pursuant to which the Company was obligated to file a registration statement to register for resale the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock (See Note 8, Warrants) and Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement on August 19, 2014, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 20, 2014 (File No. 333-198249).

For financial reporting purposes, the $15,000 funded by the Investors on July 21, 2014 was allocated first to the fair value of the obligation to issue the Warrants, amounting to $5,296, then to the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature on the July 2014 Debentures of $4,565. The balance was further reduced by the fair value of warrants issued to the placement agent for services rendered of $491, resulting in an initial carrying value of the Debentures of $4,647. The initial debt discount on the July 2014 Debentures totaled $10,353 and is being amortized using the effective interest method over the five year life of the July 2014 Debentures.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the investors converted debentures amounting to $262 into 70,000 shares of common stock for the June 2015 note. The debt discount and deferred financing cost adjustment resulting from the conversions increased interest expense by $197 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

As a condition of the new note facility (See Note 7, Long-term Debt) the Debentures from both the 2014 and 2015 financings were amended. The Debentures holders' first priority lien was subordinated to the new term note facility. Additionally, as a condition of the term note facility, the maturity date of both Debentures was extended to June 30, 2021 and treated as a modification.

On June 6, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with the holders of its 2.25% Senior Series A Secured Convertible Debentures due June 30, 2021 and 4% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures due July 30, 2021, pursuant to which the holders have agreed to exchange all of such debentures with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $40,652 into 40,616 shares of newly created Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition to eliminating approximately $40,652 of senior secured debt, the exchange will also eliminate the Company's obligation to pay approximately $4,000 of interest payments over the next four years. The closing of the exchange, and the elimination of such senior debt, will occur within two business days of the approval of the Company's stockholders of the exchange, including the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of preferred stock, subject to customary closing conditions. The stockholders meeting has been scheduled for September 14, 2017.

Other than the limitations on conversions to keep each such holders beneficial ownership below 9.99%, the terms of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock generally bestow the same rights to each holder as such holder would receive if they are common stock shareholder and are not redeemable by the holders. Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 and is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $2.69 for a total of approximately 15,099,000 shares of common stock.

As of June 30, 2017, the total outstanding amount of Debentures at their face value was $40,465.

Note 7

Long-term Debt:

Term-Note Credit Facility

On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into a $12,000 credit facility pursuant to a Credit and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") and related financing documents with MidCap Financial Trust ("MidCap") and the lenders listed therein. Under the Agreement, the credit facility may be drawn down in two tranches, the first of which was drawn for $10,500 on December 30, 2015. The proceeds of this first tranche were used to repay $10,000 principal amount of short-term senior secured promissory notes, plus associated interest, loan fees and expenses. The second tranche was drawn for $1,500 on January 29, 2016. The Company's obligations under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company's assets. This credit facility includes both financial and non-financial covenants, including a minimum net revenue covenant, beginning in January 2016. The Company is in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2017. Interest rate on the credit facility is one month LIBOR plus 8.25%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.5% or 9.30% as of June 30, 2017. The Company's existing debentures from its 2014 and 2015 financings were amended as a condition of this new term note facility, including subordination agreements and maturity extensions. As of June 30, 2017 the net balance of long-term debt is $11,579.

The following table summarizes the future payments that the Company expects to make for long-term debt for the future periods:

Note 8

Warrants:

The Company accounts for warrants that require net cash settlement upon change of control of the Company and warrants that have provisions that protect holders from a decline in the issue price of its common stock (or "down-round" provisions) as liabilities instead of equity.

The Company recognizes these liabilities at the fair value on each reporting date. The Company computed the value of the warrants using the binomial method. A summary of quantitative information with respect to the valuation methodology and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company's warrant liabilities that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is as follows:

Recurring Level 3 Activity and Reconciliation

The tables below provide a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the liability measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The table reflects gains and losses for the six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, for all financial liabilities categorized as Level 3 as of June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively.

At June 30, 2017, the Company had 844,139 options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $4.96. 598,822 options are vested and exercisable.

Stock-based compensation expense, primarily included in general and administration, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $21 and $73, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 stock-based compensation was $116 and $286, respectively. As of June 30, 2017 there was $259 in unrecognized compensation expense, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.0 years.

Note 11

Income taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method for deferred income taxes. The provision for income taxes includes federal, state and local income taxes currently payable and deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

Income tax expense of $73 and $143 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and $61 and $127 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, was comprised primarily of the change in deferred tax liability related to goodwill. Goodwill is an amortizing asset according to tax regulations. This generates a deferred tax liability that is not used to offset deferred tax assets for valuation allowance considerations.

Business Segments and Geographic Data:

The Company organized its business into three operating segments to better align its organization based upon the Company's management structure, products and services offered, markets served and types of customers, as follows: The Dermatology Recurring Procedures segment derives its revenues from the XTRAC procedures performed by dermatologists. The Dermatology Procedures Equipment segment generates revenues from the sale of equipment, such as lasers and lamp products. The Dermatology Imaging segment generated revenues from the sale and usage of imaging devices. The Company has announced that it will no longer support the imaging devices effective September 30, 2017 thus there will be minimal continuing revenues for this segment. Management reviews financial information presented on an operating segment basis for the purposes of making certain operating decisions and assessing financial performance.

Unallocated operating expenses include costs that are not specific to a particular segment but are general to the group; included are expenses incurred for administrative and accounting staff, general liability and other insurance, professional fees and other similar corporate expenses. Interest and other financing income (expense), net is also not allocated to the operating segments.

The following tables reflect results of operations from our business segments for the periods indicated below:

Related Parties:

On June 22, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Purchasers, including certain funds managed by Sabby Management, LLC and Broadfin Capital LLC (existing Company shareholders), in connection with a private placement. The Purchasers were issued Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 0.6 million shares of common stock, having an exercise price of $3.75 per share. We also issued $32.5 million aggregate principal amount of Debentures that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, were convertible into 8,666,668 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.75 per share. The Debentures bear interest at the rate of 2.25% per year, and, unless previously converted, will mature on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. Refer to Note 6 for additional information on the terms of the Debentures. On September 30, 2015, the Company repriced outstanding Warrants held by certain investors to reduce the exercise price to $3.75 per share.

In connection with this financing, the Company also granted to the Purchasers resale registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the Debentures and the Warrants pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition to the registration rights, the Selling Stockholders are entitled to receive liquidated damages upon the occurrence of a number of events relating to filing, becoming effective and maintaining an effective registration statement covering the shares underlying the Debentures and the Warrants. The liquidated damages will be payable upon the occurrence of each of those events and each monthly anniversary thereof until cured. The amount of liquidated damages payable is equal to 2.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by each Purchaser, provided, however, the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to a Purchaser shall be 12% of the aggregate subscription amount paid by such Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The liquidated damages shall accrue interest at a rate of 12% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law), accruing on a daily basis for each event until such event is cured.

The Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to file one or more registration statements for all of the securities that may be issued upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants issued to the Purchasers. Pursuant to the applicable transaction documents, however, certain Purchasers may not exercise their conversion/exercise rights for that number of shares of common stock which, together with all other shares owned by that Purchaser and its affiliates would result in more than 9.99% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock calculated on the basis of the then outstanding shares.

On June 6, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with Broadfin and Sabby, the holders of its 2.25% Senior Series A Secured Convertible Debentures due June 30, 2021 and 4% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures due July 30, 2021, pursuant to which the holders have agreed to exchange all of such debentures with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $40,652 into 40,616 shares of newly created Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition to eliminating approximately $40,652 of senior secured debt, the exchange will also eliminate the Company's obligation to pay approximately $4,000 of interest payments over the next four years. The closing of the exchange, and the elimination of such senior debt, will occur within two business days of the approval of the Company's stockholders of the exchange, including the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of preferred stock, subject to customary closing conditions. The stockholders meeting has been scheduled for September 14, 2017.

Other than the limitations on conversions to keep each such holders beneficial ownership below 9.99%, the terms of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock generally bestow the same rights to each holder as such holder would receive if they are common stock shareholder and are not redeemable by the holders, except that the Preferred Stock  does not have voting rights. Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 and is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $2.69 for a total of approximately 15,099,000 common stock.

On November 4, 2015, the Company entered into consulting agreements with two of its directors, Jeffrey F. O'Donnell, Sr. and Samuel E. Navarro, the terms of which are the same. Under the terms of their respective agreements, each director agrees to provide strategic support, advice and guidance to the Company and its management team in connection with the integration and operation of the expanded business, investor relations and internal and external business development activities. The consultant will make himself available to the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer and the management team on request at mutually convenient times and will report to the Board of Directors quarterly and otherwise when requested by the Board. The agreements had been extended through June 30, 2017. The term of the agreement with Mr. O'Donnell has been further extended through December 31, 2017. Mr. Navarro's agreement expired per its terms on June 30, 2017 and no extensions or renewals of the agreement were entered into. The directors were each to be paid an up-front fee of $40,000 for advice and services rendered prior to the date of the agreement, including advice related to the acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC assets and the structuring of the financing for that acquisition, a retainer of $10,000 per month, commencing November 10, 2015 and continuing on the tenth day of each month through the expiration of their respective agreements, and reimbursement of pre-approved, out-of-pocket expenses.

The following financial data, in this narrative, are expressed in thousands, except for the earnings per share.

Introduction, Outlook and Overview of Business Operations

STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. ("STRATA" or "we" or the "Company") is a medical technology company focused on the therapeutic and aesthetic dermatology market. STRATA sales include the following products: XTRAC^® laser and VTRAC^® excimer lamp systems utilized in the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and various other skin conditions; the STRATAPEN™ MicroSystems, a micropigmentation device; and Nordlys, a multi-technology aesthetic laser device for treating vascular and pigmented lesions.

The XTRAC device is utilized to treat psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin diseases. The XTRAC device received FDA clearance in 2000 and has since become a widely recognized treatment among dermatologists. The system delivers targeted 308um ultraviolet light to affected areas of skin, leading to psoriasis clearing and vitiligo repigmentation, following a series of treatments. As of June 30, 2017, there were 795 XTRAC systems placed in dermatologists' offices in the United States under our recurring revenue model, up from 748 at the end of June 30, 2016. Under the recurring revenue model, the XTRAC system is placed in a physician's office and revenue is recognized on a per procedure basis. The XTRAC system's use for psoriasis is covered by nearly all major insurance companies, including Medicare. The VTRAC Excimer Lamp system, offered internationally in addition to the XTRAC, provides targeted therapeutic efficacy demonstrated by excimer technology with the simplicity of design and reliability of a lamp system. There are approximately 7.5 million people in the United States and up to 125 million people worldwide suffering from psoriasis, and 1% to 2% of the world's population suffers from vitiligo. In 2016, over 351,000 XTRAC laser treatments were performed on approximately 22,000 patients in the United States.

We have discontinued our efforts to develop the MelaFind System and are in the process of discontinuing our efforts to develop and commercialize it. This activity is included in the Dermatology Imaging segment. MelaFind is a non-invasive, point-of-care (i.e., in the doctor's office) instrument designed to aid in the dermatologists' decision to biopsy pigmented skin lesions, particularly melanoma. We have been unsuccessful in commercializing the MelaFind product in a way that would bring financial benefit to our shareholders. In March 2017, we sent a notice to the 90 owners of MelaFind devices informing them that, effective September 30, 2017, we no longer had the resources to continue to support the device and that our inventory of spare parts was being offered for sale to them on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Effective March 1, 2017, we entered into an agreement to license the exclusive US distribution rights for the Ellipse family of products from Ellipse USA through December 31, 2019 (the "Initial Term"). If certain sales targets are met, the agreement will automatically be extended for two additional years. Under the terms of the agreement, we will be the exclusive distributor of Ellipse lasers. We have agreed to minimum inventory purchases and to pay a monthly license fee of approximately $33, in addition to commissions for each system sold. As part of the transaction, the majority of sales and marketing professionals from Ellipse USA are now employees of STRATA. The license fee amounts to approximately $1.1 million over the Initial Term.

Effective February 1, 2017, we entered into an exclusive OEM distribution agreement with Esthetic Education, LLC to be the exclusive marketer and seller of private label versions of the SkinStylus MicroSystem and associated parts under the name of STRATAPen. This three-year agreement allows for two one year extensions.

Key Technology

Sales and Marketing

As of June 30, 2017, our sales and marketing personnel consisted of 53 full-time positions, inclusive of a direct sales organization as well as an in-house call center staffed with patient advocates and a reimbursement group that provides necessary insurance information to our physician partners and their patients.

Reverse Stock Split

On April 6, 2017, we completed the reverse split of its common stock in the ratio of 1-for-5. Our common stock began trading at the market opening on April 7, 2017 on a split-adjusted basis. The reverse split is intended to enable us to increase our marketability to institutional investors and to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Global Market, among other benefits. As a result of the stock split, we now have 2,183,243 shares of common stock outstanding, taking into account the rounding up of fractional shares.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Critical accounting policies and the significant estimates made in accordance with such policies are regularly discussed with our Audit Committee. Those policies are discussed under "Critical Accounting Policies" in our "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in Item 7, as well as in our consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC with our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 13, 2017.

Results of Operations (The following financial data, in this narrative, are expressed in thousands, except for the earnings per share.)

Revenues

The following table presents revenues from our three segments for the periods indicated below:

Recognized treatment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $6,202, which approximates 89,000 treatments, with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment compared to recognized treatment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 of $6,093, which approximates 87,000 treatments, with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment. Recognized treatment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $11,933, which approximates 170,000 treatments, with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment compared to recognized treatment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 of $11,621, which approximates 166,000 treatments, with prices between $65 to $95 per treatment. Increases in procedures are dependent upon building market acceptance through marketing programs with our physician partners and their patients to show that the XTRAC procedures will be of clinical benefit and will be generally reimbursed by insurers. We believe that several factors have limited the growth of the use of XTRAC treatments from those who suffer from psoriasis and vitiligo. Specifically, we believe that awareness of the positive effects of XTRAC treatments has not been understood well enough among both sufferers and providers; and the treatment regimen requiring sometimes up to 12 or more treatments has limited XTRAC use to certain patient populations. Therefore, we have a direct to patient program for XTRAC advertising in the United States targeted at psoriasis and vitiligo patients through a variety of media including television and radio; and through our use of social media such as FaceBook and Twitter. We monitor the results of our advertising expenditures in this area to reach the more than 10 million patients in the United States afflicted with these diseases.

We defer substantially all sales of treatment codes ordered by and delivered to the customer within the last two weeks of the period in determining the amount of procedures performed by our physician-customers. Management believes this approach closely approximates the actual amount of unused treatments that existed at the end of a period. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we deferred net revenues of $278 and $137, respectively, under this approach.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 dermatology equipment revenues were $2,496. Internationally, we sold 21 systems for the three months ended June 30, 2017, (18 XTRAC and 7 VTRAC ). Domestically, we sold 6 XTRAC systems for the three months ended June 30, 2017. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 dermatology equipment revenues were $1,634. Internationally, we sold 22 systems for the three months ended June 30, 2016, (13 XTRAC and 9 VTRAC).

For the six months ended June 30, 2017 dermatology equipment revenues were $4,033. Internationally, we sold 30 systems for the six months ended June 30, 2017, (26 XTRAC and 8 VTRAC ). Domestically, we sold 11 XTRAC systems for the six months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 dermatology equipment revenues were $3,624. Internationally, we sold 46 systems for the six months ended June 30, 2016, (30 XTRAC and 16 VTRAC).

Additionally, included in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $395 in revenues for 2 Nordlys units and accessories. There were no such revenues in the comparable prior year periods.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, imaging revenues were $4 and $12, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, imaging revenues were $8 and $114, respectively. We have discontinued our efforts to develop the MelaFind System and are in the process of discontinuing our efforts to develop and commercialize it. We no longer have the resources to continue to support the device and our inventory of spare parts is being offered for sale to customers on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Cost of Revenues

The following table illustrates cost of revenues from our three business segments for the periods listed below:

Gross Profit Analysis

Gross profit increased to $5,529 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from $4,600 during the same period in 2016. As a percentage of revenues, the gross margin was 63.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 59.4% during the same period in 2016. Gross profit increased to $10,068 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from $8,798 during the same period in 2016. As a percentage of revenues, the gross margin was 63.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 57.3% during the same period in 2016.

The following tables analyze changes in our gross margin, by segment, for the periods presented below:

The primary reason for the change in gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to the same periods in 2016, was due to additional treatments and technical improvements in the product which reduced gas consumption and service repairs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Incremental treatments delivered on existing equipment incur negligible incremental costs, so increases and/or decreases on in those treatments have an impact on gross margin.
