Cutera Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results
Revenue Grew 32% Year-Over-Year

BRISBANE, Calif., August 6, 2012 ─ Cutera, Inc. (NASDAQ: CUTR), a leading provider of laser and other energy-based aesthetic systems for practitioners worldwide, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.

Key financial highlights for the second quarter of 2012 compared to same period last year are as follows:

 
·
Revenue grew 32%, to $19.6 million.
 
·
Net loss was $1.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $0.18 per diluted share.
 
·
The $1.5 million loss includes $1.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation and amortization and depreciation.

Kevin Connors, president and CEO of Cutera, stated, “This is our fifth consecutive quarter of revenue growth in excess of 22%, compared to the same period one year ago.  We continue to see growth in most of our major geographical regions.  In the second quarter of 2012, our US revenue increased 38%, when compared to the second quarter of 2011. International revenue expanded by 28% during the second quarter of 2012, compared to the same period in 2011.  This revenue improvement was driven primarily by:

 
1)
Continued increased penetration of our premier ExcelV vascular system;
 
2)
Increased revenue from our flagship Xeo platform;
 
3)
Expansion and improved effectiveness of our North American sales organization;
 
4)
Incremental revenue from the Iridex aesthetic acquisition that contributed to higher service, cross selling opportunities and product revenue.”
“Revenue shipments of our truSculpt product designed for the fast growing non-invasive body contouring market commences in the third quarter of 2012. Our extensive research and unique energy delivery technology enables this product to achieve efficacious clinical outcomes, while minimizing patient discomfort. We are excited to be entering this aesthetic category and believe this will contribute to our revenue growth in the future.”
 
 
 

 

Mr. Connors concluded, “We believe the market outlook for aesthetic laser and other energy based equipment continues to improve and we are well positioned to capitalize on our expanding market. We remain focused on many initiatives in order to continue delivering revenue growth, improving gross margins, improving leverage in our business model, and cash generation in the second half of this year.”
