Detailed Narrative
AYON Platform Traction and Expansion
The AYON Body Contouring System, following its full commercial launch in September 2025, continues to gain traction in the U.S. market. Surgeons are increasingly recognizing its value as an integrated all-in-one platform combining core technologies. The company received expanded 510(k) clearance from the FDA to add power liposuction to AYON, which commenced initial commercial shipments in June 2026 after positive limited commercial launch feedback. This enhancement allows for more efficient fat removal and body sculpting.
GLP-1 Opportunity
The rapid adoption of GLP-1 medications is creating a significant long-term opportunity for Apyx. As patients achieve substantial weight loss, many are left with loose or lax skin, which AYON's comprehensive body contouring capabilities, combining fat removal, Renuvion tissue contraction, and electrosurgical features, are well-positioned to address. This trend is expected to drive future demand for the company's offerings.
Clinical Evidence and Awareness
Apyx continues to build its clinical foundation with new peer-reviewed publications. A retrospective study showed Renuvion combined with liposuction led to higher patient satisfaction and reduced need for more invasive procedures compared to liposuction alone, with comparable complication rates. A prospective study also demonstrated visible improvements in cellulite and skin laxity with Avéli and Renuvion, showing progressive tissue remodeling. The company also showcased its platform at Miami Swim Week, highlighting aesthetic outcomes.
Executive Leadership Appointment
Stavros Vizirgianakis has been appointed Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors. This formalizes his already significant involvement in shaping strategic priorities, supporting financing initiatives, and strengthening operational focus, leveraging his decades of leadership experience and industry network to drive long-term shareholder value.
OEM Segment Strategy
The OEM segment experienced a 12% decrease in sales, reflecting a continued trend. The company expects OEM revenue to decrease for the full year and over time⏳, as it maintains an increased focus on the higher-growth Surgical Aesthetics segment.
Liquidity and Cash Flow
The company reported $27.6 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026. Despite an increase in net cash used in operating activities to $3.5 million, management projects sufficient liquidity into 2028, based on AYON uptake, working capital management, and strict cost controls, with a focus on achieving cash flow positive status.
