HORSHAM, Pa., Aug. 11, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (“STRATA”) (NASDAQ:SSKN) a medical technology company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative products for the treatment and diagnosis of serious dermatological disorders, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.
Second Quarter and Recent Corporate Highlights
- Second quarter revenues were $7.7 million.
- Recurring XTRAC revenues were $6.1 million, down 8.8% year-over-year and up 10.2% sequentially.
- Installed base of XTRAC systems in the U.S. expanded to 748 systems placed, up 12.7% from 664 at the end of the second quarter 2015.
The operating results of the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2016 include activity from the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses for the entire period. As a result of purchase accounting rules, the operating results of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 are included for the period of June 23 through June 30 in consolidated statements of operations.
“As we work to drive further market penetration of XTRAC we are continuing to implement improvements to our marketing and awareness campaigns aimed at expanding patient awareness and better facilitating the patient’s XTRAC experience. Over the coming quarters, we expect to see greater efficiencies from our newly revamped website coupled with new creatives and more targeted approach in television, radio and social media. In addition, our team has implemented a new process to work with dermatology practices with newly placed XTRAC systems in an effort to ramp revenues more quickly and maintain a consistent and growing level of procedures,” said Michael R. Stewart, President and CEO of the Company.
Continuing, Mr. Stewart added, “We are seeing a greater consolidation of individual dermatology practices in the marketplace through corporate buyouts. Over time, we believe this is an important growth opportunity for the XTRAC as our sales approach adapts to addressing the needs of these corporate entities, including the potential expansion of the deployment of XTRAC into a greater number of owned practices. Separately, as patients face the reset of their deductible and co-pays at the start of each year, and as insurers are raising these deductible limits for many consumers, we believe this appears to have been reflected in fewer patient visits to dermatologists during the past quarter than in the same quarter a year ago.”
“We are excited about the opportunity for growth of the XTRAC system. We continue to pursue R&D projects that may deliver a more effective treatment using a higher dose of light, increasing the appeal of the XTRAC system to dermatologists and patients. In addition to accelerating our revenue growth, we are also engaged in several engineering and R&D projects to help lower Strata’s costs of installing and maintaining the XTRAC systems in place,” added Mr. Stewart.
