PART I
Item 1. Business
Our Company
Overview
We are a medical technology company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative products for the treatment of dermatological disorders. In June 2015 we completed the acquisition, the "Acquisition", of the XTRAC® Excimer Laser and the VTRAC® excimer lamp businesses from PhotoMedex, Inc. The XTRAC and VTRAC products are devices cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin disorders. The purchase price was $42.5 million plus the assumption of certain business-related liabilities. We believe that these businesses acquired create a platform on which to transform STRATA into a leading medical dermatology company.
- 1 -

We are in the process of discontinuing our efforts to develop and commercialize the MelaFind® system, or MelaFind, a device for aiding dermatologists in the evaluation of clinically atypical pigmented skin lesions. The MelaFind ® system is used when the dermatologist chooses to obtain additional information before making a final decision to biopsy in order to rule out melanoma. MelaFind has not achieved a significant enough level of acceptance by dermatologists to justify the continued investment of our scarce resources. In March 2017, we sent a notice to the 90 owners of MelaFind devices in the United States 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.
XTRAC® Systems and VTRAC Systems
The XTRAC excimer laser technology emits highly concentrated UV light to treat dermatological skin disorders. It received FDA clearance in 2000 and has since become a widely recognized treatment for psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin diseases. Psoriasis and vitiligo alone, affect up to 10.5 million people in the U.S. and 190 million people worldwide. VTRAC is a UV light lamp system that works in much the same way as the XTRAC. It received FDA clearance in August 2005 and CE mark approval in January 2006 and has been marketed exclusively in international markets.
Present in natural sunlight, UVB is an accepted psoriasis treatment that penetrates the skin to slow the growth of damaged skin cells thereby placing the disease into remission for a period of time. Studies have shown that the remission time can last 3 to 6 months or longer. In our XTRAC system, our targeted therapy approach delivers optimum amounts of UVB light directly to skin lesions, sparing healthy tissue. Many peer reviewed studies have proven that the XTRAC can clear psoriasis faster and produce longer remissions than other UVB modalities, resulting in fewer treatments to produce the desired result.
We market two XTRAC excimer models: the XTRAC Velocity is our most advanced technology which allows clinicians to treat greater surface areas of psoriatic disease in a shorter period of time than other technologies. The XTRAC Ultra Plus is also a highly effective model marketed primarily in certain international markets. Both the Velocity and the Ultra plus are capable of treating mild, moderate and severe psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma.
The XTRAC is marketed in the U.S. mainly under a recurring revenue model; in which we place the system in the physician's office for no upfront charge and generate our revenue on a per-use basis. We estimate that there are roughly 1,000 XTRAC lasers in use in the U.S., of which 775 systems were, as of December 31, 2016, included in the recurring revenue model. The target U.S. audience for XTRAC lasers comprises approximately 3,500 dermatologists who perform disease management. In markets outside the U.S., the XTRAC laser is marketed primarily as a capital sale through a master international distributor to distributors in twenty-five countries. The VTRAC is marketed exclusively in international markets through the same master international distributor.
Studies have concluded that XTRAC treatment leads to significant improvement in psoriasis area and severity scores in as little as 6 to 10 treatments. Treatment protocols recommend that patients receive two treatments per week with a minimum of 48 hours between treatments. Our data shows that XTRAC has an 89% efficacy rate and produces only minimal side effects. In support of its clinical effect, the XTRAC Excimer lasers have been cited in over 45 clinical studies and research programs, with findings published in peer-reviewed medical journals around the world. The products have also been endorsed by the National Psoriasis Foundation, and their use for psoriasis is covered by nearly all major insurance companies, including Medicare.
XTRAC is a reimbursable procedure for psoriasis under three Current Procedural Terminology ("CPT") codes. There are three applicable CPT codes that differ based on area of treatment only. Insurance Reimbursement to physicians varies based upon insurance company and geography. The national CPT code reimbursement established by the Center for Medicaid Services (CMS) which forms the basis for most insurance companies' reimbursement levels ranges for the three codes between $150 per treatment to $240 per treatment. (See "Third Party Reimbursement".)

Psoriasis Treatment Options
There are essentially three main types of psoriasis treatments, as listed below.

| Topical therapies: | These can include corticosteroids, vitamin D3 derivatives, coal tar, anthralin and retinoids, among others, that are sold as a cream, gel, liquid, spray, or ointment. The efficacy of topical agents varies from person to person, although these products are commonly associated with a loss of potency over time as people develop resistance.
| Phototherapy: | This is the area in which we operate. Our XTRAC Excimer Systems are FDA-cleared, reimbursed by insurance, and exhibit none of the significant side-effects associated with some alternative therapies.
| Systemic medications: | There are a number of prescription medications available for psoriasis, which are given either by mouth or as an injection. The popularity and use of these medications is growing significantly, notwithstanding their potentially severe side-effects.

The XTRAC Excimer Lasers are particularly significant and beneficial for moderate and severe psoriasis patients who prefer a noninvasive treatment approach without the side effects of invasive, systemic agents, or to patients who have developed a resistance to topical agents. In many cases, patients treated with topical or systemic therapies are also candidates for phototherapy.
Using the XTRAC Excimer Lasers to Treat Vitiligo and Other Skin Diseases
UV light therapy is considered to be an effective and safe treatment for many skin disorders beyond psoriasis. To this effect, the XTRAC technology is FDA cleared for the treatment of not only psoriasis but also vitiligo (a skin pigment deficiency), atopic dermatitis (eczema) and leukoderma, which is a localized loss of skin pigmentation that occurs after an inflammatory skin condition, such as a burn, intralesional steroid injection, or post dermabrasion.
XTRAC technology for vitiligo patients typically requires more therapy sessions than for psoriasis, but is dependent on the severity of the disease. In the treatment of vitiligo, the XTRAC functions to reactivate the skin's melanocytes (the cells that produce melanin), which causes pigment to return. To date, there is not sufficient data to confirm how long patients can expect their vitiligo to be in remission after XTRAC therapy. Based on anecdotal reports, we believe that re-pigmentation may last for several years.
Historically, vitiligo treatments had been considered cosmetic procedures by insurance companies, and as such were not reimbursed. However, over the past several years, there has been a significant increase in insurance coverage for these procedures, and we estimate that currently approximately 50% of insurers consider XTRAC treatments to be medically necessary for the treatment of vitiligo and therefore provide coverage.
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 high enough among both sufferers and providers; and that the treatment regimen requiring sometimes up to 12 or more treatments has limited XTRAC use to certain patient populations. Therefore, to address the lack of knowledge issue, we have a direct to patient advertising campaign aimed at motivating psoriasis and vitiligo patients to seek out XTRAC treatments from our physician customers. Specific advertisements encourage prospective patients to contact our patient advocacy center through telephone or web site whereby we provide information on the treatment and insurance coverage, and we ultimately schedule an appointment for the prospective patient to be evaluated by a physician within our customer network, convenient to their location, to determine if they would benefit from XTRAC treatments. We are in the process of a research and development effort to develop products to assist in the reduction of the number of treatments in the XTRAC treatment protocol to make XTRAC treatments gain a wider appeal for those patients who cannot fit the current treatment regimen into their schedules.

The MelaFind System
In November 2011, we received a Pre-Market Approval, or PMA, from the FDA for MelaFind, a non-invasive, point-of-care (i.e. in the doctor's office) instrument to aid in the detection of melanoma, having already received in September 2011 Conformité Européenne ("CE") Mark approval. On March 7, 2012, we installed the first commercial MelaFind System. We designed MelaFind to aid in the evaluation of clinically atypical pigmented skin lesions, when a dermatologist chooses to obtain additional information before making a final decision to biopsy in order to rule out melanoma. MelaFind acquires and displays multi-spectral (from blue to near infrared) and dermoscopic Red Green Blue ("RGB") digital data from pigmented skin lesions. It uses automatic data analysis and statistical pattern recognition to help identify lesions to be considered for biopsy to rule out melanoma. We believe that with the assistance provided by MelaFind, dermatologists may diagnose more melanomas at the most curable stages. However, the MelaFind System has not gained sufficient acceptance by dermatologists to justify continued investment.
In March 2017, we sent a notice to the 90 owners of MelaFind devices in the United States 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.
MelaFind Product Description
The MelaFind system consists of a hand-held imager, which is comprised of an illuminator that shines light of 10 different specific wavelengths, including near infra-red bands; a lens system that focuses the light reflected from the lesions; and a processor employing proprietary algorithms to extract many discrete characteristics or features from the lesions.
Post-Approval Study
In November 2011, we received written approval from the FDA for the MelaFind system PMA. In connection with the approval, we committed to conduct a Post-Approval Study ("PAS") of MelaFind. Agreement on the study protocol was reached with the FDA and the study was initiated during 2012.
On January 4, 2017, FDA accepted our final report on the PAS and marked the study status as "Terminated" on the Post-Approval Studies webpage due to the approval of a modified device (PMA supplement on the MelaFind Output) for which data had already been provided in the Reader Study.
Competition
Our XTRAC product line competes with pharmaceutical compounds and methodologies used to treat an array of skin conditions. Such alternative treatments may be in the form of topical products, systemic medications, and phototherapies from both large pharmaceutical and smaller devices companies. Currently, our XTRAC system is believed to be a competitive therapy to alternative treatments on the basis of its recognized clinical effect, minimal side effect profile, cost-effectiveness and reimbursement.
Manufacturing
We manufacture our XTRAC products at our 28,000 sq. ft. facility in Carlsbad, California. Our California facility is ISO 13485 certified. ISO 13485 is an International standardization written by the International Organization for Standardization, which publishes requirements for a comprehensive quality management system for the design and manufacture of medical devices. Certification to the standard is awarded by accredited third parties. We believe that our present manufacturing capacity at these facilities is sufficient to meet foreseeable demand for our products.
Research and Development Efforts
Our research and development team, including engineers, consists of approximately five employees. We conduct research and development activities at our facility located in Carlsbad, California. Currently, our research and development efforts are focused on the application of our XTRAC system to the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders.

Intellectual Property
Our policy is to protect our intellectual property by obtaining U.S. and foreign patents to protect technology, inventions and improvements important to the development of our business. As of December 31, 2016, 28 issued U.S. patents are in force, and many of these patents have foreign counterparts issued and pending. Of those issued, 10 U.S. patents and one German patent relate to the XTRAC and VTRAC product lines and eighteen U.S. patents, and several foreign patents related to various aspects of MelaFind technology. As these MelaFind related patents come up for the payment of periodic maintenance fees, we will assess the need to continue to maintain their existence. We have not granted any significant licenses with respect to our intellectual property.
We also rely on trade secrets and technical know-how in the manufacture and marketing of our products. We require our employees, consultants and contractors to execute confidentiality agreements with respect to our proprietary information.
We believe that our patented methods and apparatus, together with proprietary trade-secret technology and registered trademarks, give us a competitive advantage; however, whether a patent is infringed or is valid, or whether or not a patent application should be granted, are all complex matters of science and law, and therefore, we cannot be certain that, if challenged, our patented methods and apparatus and/or trade-secret technology would be upheld. If one or more of our patented methods, patented apparatus or trade-secret technology rights, or our trademark rights, are invalidated, rejected or found unenforceable, that could reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage we might otherwise have had.
Government Regulation
Regulations Relating to Products and Manufacturing
Our products and research and development activities are regulated by numerous governmental authorities, principally the FDA and corresponding state and foreign regulatory agencies. Any medical device or cosmetic we manufacture and/or distribute will be subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by the FDA. The U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act, or FD&C Act, and other federal and state laws and regulations govern the pre-clinical and clinical testing, design, manufacture, use, labeling and promotion of medical devices, including our XTRAC, VTRAC and MelaFind systems. Product development and approval for medical devices within this regulatory framework takes a number of years and involves the expenditure of substantial resources.
In the U.S., medical devices are classified into three different classes, Class I, II and III, on the basis of controls deemed necessary to provide a reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device. Class I devices are subject to general controls, such as facility registration, medical device listing, labeling requirements, premarket notification (unless the medical device has been specifically exempted from this requirement), adherence to the FDA's Quality System Regulation, and requirements concerning the submission of device-related adverse event reports to the FDA. Class II devices are subject to general and special controls, such as performance standards, pre-market notification (510(k) clearance), post-market surveillance, and FDA Quality System Regulations. Generally, Class III devices are those that must receive premarket approval by the FDA to provide a reasonable assurance of their safety and effectiveness, such as life-sustaining, life-supporting and implantable devices, or new devices that have been found not to be substantially equivalent to existing legally marketed devices.
With limited exceptions, before a new medical device can be distributed in the U.S., marketing authorization typically must be obtained from the FDA through a premarket notification under Section 510(k) of the FDA Act, or through a premarket approval application under Section 515 of the FDA Act. The FDA will typically grant a 510(k) clearance if it can be established that the device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device that is a legally marketed Class I or II device (or to pre-amendments Class III devices for which the FDA has yet to call for premarket approvals). We have received FDA 510(k) clearance to market our XTRAC and VTRAC systems for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma. The FDA granted these clearances under Section 510(k) on the basis of substantial equivalence to other technologies that had received prior clearances.
- 5 -

For any devices that are cleared through the 510(k) process, modifications or enhancements that could significantly affect the safety or effectiveness of the device, or that constitute a major change in the intended use of the device, will require a new 510(k) submission. In August 2003, the FDA granted 510(k) clearance for a significantly modified version of our XTRAC laser, which we have marketed as the XTRAC XL Plus Excimer Laser System. In October 2004, the FDA granted clearance for the XTRAC Ultra (AL 8000) Excimer Laser System and, in March 2008, we received 510(k) clearance for the XTRAC Velocity (AL 10000) Excimer Laser System. These approvals were originally granted to PhotoMedex, Inc. and acquired by us in the June 2015 asset acquisition transaction described above.
We were required to secure premarket approval for the MelaFind system. A premarket approval application may be required for a Class II device if it is not substantially equivalent to an existing legally marketed Class I or II device (or a pre-amendments Class III device for which the FDA has yet to call for premarket approval) or if the device is a Class III premarket approval device by regulation. A premarket approval application must be supported by valid scientific evidence to demonstrate a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the device, typically including the results of clinical trials, bench tests and possibly animal studies. In addition, the submission must include, among other things, the proposed labeling. The premarket approval process can be expensive, uncertain and lengthy and a number of devices for which FDA approval has been sought by other companies have never been approved for marketing.
We are subject to routine inspection by the FDA and, as noted above, must comply with a number of regulatory requirements applicable to firms that manufacture medical devices and other FDA-regulated products for distribution within the U.S., including requirements related to device labeling (including prohibitions against promoting products for unapproved or off-label uses), facility registration, medical device listing, labeling requirements, adherence to the FDA's Quality System Regulation, good manufacturing processes and requirements for the submission of reports regarding certain device-related adverse events to the FDA.
We are also subject to the radiological health provisions of the FDA Act and the general and laser-specific radiation safety regulations administered by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health, or CDRH, of the FDA. These regulations require laser manufacturers to file initial, new product, supplemental and annual reports, to maintain quality control, product testing and sales records, to incorporate certain design and operating features (depending on the class of product) in lasers sold to end users pursuant to a performance standard and to certify and appropriately label each laser sold as belonging to one of four classes, based on the level of radiation from the laser that is accessible to users. Moreover, we are obligated to repair, replace, or refund the cost of certain electronic products that are found to fail to comply with applicable federal standards or otherwise are found to be defective. The CDRH is empowered to seek fines and other remedies for violations of the regulatory requirements. To date, we have filed the documentation with the CDRH for our laser products requiring such filing and have not experienced any difficulties or incurred significant costs in complying with such regulations.
We are approved by the European Union to affix the CE Mark to our XTRAC laser, VTRAC lamp and MelaFind systems. This certification is a mandatory conformity mark for products placed on the market in the European Economic Area, which is evidence that they meet all European Community, or EC, quality assurance standards and compliance with applicable European medical device directives for the production of medical devices. This will enable us to market our approved products in all of the member countries that accept the CE Mark. We also will be required to comply with additional individual national requirements that are in addition to those required by these nations. Our products have also met the requirements for marketing in various other countries.
Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in fines, injunctions, civil penalties, recalls or seizures of products, total or partial suspensions of production, refusals by the U.S and foreign governments to permit product sales and criminal prosecution.
We are or may become subject to various other federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations and policies relating to, among other things, safe working conditions, good laboratory practices and the use and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances used in connection with research and development.

Fraud and Abuse Laws
Because of the significant federal funding involved in Medicare and Medicaid, Congress and the states have enacted, and actively enforce, a number of laws whose purpose is to eliminate fraud and abuse in federal health care programs. Our business is subject to compliance with these laws.
Anti-Kickback Laws
In the U.S., there are federal and state anti-kickback laws that generally prohibit the payment or receipt of kickbacks, bribes or other remuneration in exchange for the referral of patients or other health-related business. The U.S. federal healthcare programs' Anti-Kickback Statute makes it unlawful for individuals or entities knowingly and willfully to solicit, offer, receive or pay any kickback, bribe or other remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce the purchase, lease or order, or arranging for or recommending purchasing, leasing, or ordering, any good, facility, service, or item for which payment may be made in whole or in part under a federal healthcare program such as Medicare or Medicaid. The Anti-Kickback Statute covers "any remuneration," which has been broadly interpreted to include anything of value, including for example gifts, certain discounts, the furnishing of free supplies, equipment or services, credit arrangements, payments of cash and waivers of payments. Several courts have interpreted the statute's intent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare covered business, the arrangement can be found to violate the statute. Penalties for violations include criminal penalties and civil sanctions such as fines, imprisonment and possible exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs. In addition, several courts have permitted kickback cases brought under the Federal False Claims Act to proceed, as discussed in more detail below.
The reach of the Anti-Kickback Statute was broadened by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (the "ACA"), which, among other things, amends the intent requirement of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. Pursuant to the statutory amendment, a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation. In addition, the ACA provides that the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the civil False Claims Act (discussed below) or the civil monetary penalties statute, which imposes penalties against any person who is determined to have presented or caused to be presented a claim to a federal health program that the person knows or should know is for an item or service that was not provided as claimed or is false or fraudulent.
Because the Anti-Kickback Statute is broadly written and encompasses many harmless or efficient arrangements, Congress authorized the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or OIG, to issue a series of regulations, known as "safe harbors." For example, there are regulatory safe harbors for payments to bona fide employees, properly reported discounts and rebates, and for certain investment interests. Although an arrangement that fits into one or more of these exceptions or safe harbors is immune from prosecution, arrangements that do not fit squarely within an exception or safe harbor do not necessarily violate the statute. The failure of a transaction or arrangement to fit precisely within one or more of the exceptions or safe harbors does not necessarily mean that it is illegal or that prosecution will be pursued. However, conduct and business arrangements that arguably implicate the Anti-Kickback Statute but do not fully satisfy all the elements of an exception or safe harbor may be subject to increased scrutiny by government enforcement authorities such as the OIG.
Many states have laws that implicate anti-kickback restrictions similar to the Anti-Kickback Statute. Some of these state prohibitions apply, regardless of whether federal health care program business is involved, to arrangements such as for self-pay or private-pay patients.
Government officials have focused their enforcement efforts on marketing of healthcare services and products, among other activities, and recently have brought cases against companies, and certain sales, marketing and executive personnel, for allegedly offering unlawful inducements to potential or existing customers in an attempt to procure their business.

Federal Civil False Claims Act and State False Claims Laws
The federal civil False Claims Act imposes liability on any person or entity who, among other things, knowingly and willfully presents, or causes to be presented, a false or fraudulent claim for payment by a federal healthcare program, including Medicare and Medicaid. The "qui tam," or "whistleblower" provisions of the False Claims Act allow a private individual to bring actions on behalf of the federal government alleging that the defendant has submitted a false claim to the federal government, and to share in any monetary recovery. In recent years, the number of suits brought against healthcare providers by private individuals has increased dramatically. Medical device companies, like us, can be held liable under false claims laws, even if they do not submit claims to the government, when they are deemed to have caused submission of false claims by, among other things, providing incorrect coding or billing advice about their products to customers that file claims, or by engaging in kickback arrangements with customers that file claims.
The False Claims Act also has been used to assert liability on the basis of misrepresentations with respect to the services rendered and in connection with alleged off-label promotion of products. Our future activities relating to the manner in which we sell our products and document our prices, such as the reporting of discount and rebate information and other information affecting federal, state and third-party reimbursement of our products, and the sale and marketing of our products, may be subject to scrutiny under these laws.
When an entity is determined to have violated the False Claims Act, it may be required to pay up to three times the actual damages sustained by the government, plus civil penalties of $5,500 to $11,000 for each separate false claim. There are many potential bases for liability under the False Claims Act. A number of states have enacted false claim laws analogous to the federal civil False Claims Act and many of these state laws apply where a claim is submitted to any state or private third-party payor. In this environment, our engagement of physician consultants in product development and product training and education could subject us to similar scrutiny. We are unable to predict whether we would be subject to actions under the False Claims Act or a similar state law, or the impact of such actions. However, the costs of defending such claims, as well as any sanctions imposed, could significantly affect our financial performance.
HIPAA Fraud and Other Regulations
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created a class of federal crimes known as the "federal health care offenses," including healthcare fraud and false statements relating to healthcare matters. The HIPAA health care fraud statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme or artifice to defraud any healthcare benefit program, or to obtain by means of false of fraudulent pretenses, any money under the control of any health care benefit program, including private payors. A violation of this statute is a felony and may result in fines, imprisonment and/or exclusion from government-sponsored programs. The HIPAA false statements statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or representation in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services. A violation of this statute is a felony and may result in fines and/or imprisonment. Entities that are found to have aided or abetted in a violation of the HIPAA federal health care offenses are deemed by statute to have committed the offense and are punishable as a principal.
We are also subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar anti-bribery laws applicable in non-U.S. jurisdictions that generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to non-U.S. government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Because of the predominance of government-sponsored healthcare systems around the world, most of our customer relationships outside of the U.S. will be with governmental entities and therefore subject to such anti-bribery laws.

HIPAA and Other Privacy Regulations
The regulations that implement HIPAA also establish uniform standards governing the conduct of certain electronic healthcare transactions and protecting the security and privacy of individually identifiable health information maintained or transmitted by healthcare providers, health plans and healthcare clearinghouses, which are referred to as "covered entities." Several regulations have been promulgated under HIPAA's regulations including: the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information, or the Privacy Rule, which restricts the use and disclosure of certain individually identifiable health information; the Standards for Electronic Transactions, or the Transactions Rule, which establishes standards for common healthcare transactions, such as claims information, plan eligibility, payment information and the use of electronic signatures; and the Security Standards for the Protection of Electronic Protected Health Information, or the Security Rule, which requires covered entities to implement and maintain certain security measures to safeguard certain electronic health information. Although we do not believe we are a covered entity and therefore are not currently directly subject to these standards, we expect that our customers generally will be covered entities and may ask us to contractually comply with certain aspects of these standards by entering into requisite business associate agreements. While the government intended this legislation to reduce administrative expenses and burdens for the healthcare industry, our compliance with certain provisions of these standards entails significant costs for us.
The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or the HITECH Act, which was enacted in February 2009, strengthens and expands the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules and the restrictions on use and disclosure of patient identifiable health information. HITECH also fundamentally changed a business associate's obligations by imposing a number of Privacy Rule requirements and a majority of Security Rule provisions directly on business associates that were previously only directly applicable to covered entities. HITECH includes, but is not limited to, prohibitions on exchanging patient identifiable health information for remuneration, restrictions on marketing to individuals, and obligations to agree to provide individuals an accounting of virtually all disclosures of their health information. Moreover, HITECH requires covered entities to report any unauthorized use or disclosure of patient identifiable health information, known as a breach, to the affected individuals, the United States Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS, and, depending on the size of any such breach, the media for the affected market. Business associates are similarly required to notify covered entities of a breach. Most of the HITECH provisions became effective in February 2010. HHS has already issued regulations governing breach notification which were effective in September 2009.
HITECH has increased civil penalty amounts for violations of HIPAA by either covered entities or business associates up to an annual maximum of $1.5 million for uncorrected violations based on willful neglect. Imposition of these penalties is more likely now because HITECH significantly strengthens enforcement. It requires HHS to conduct periodic audits to confirm compliance and to investigate any violation that involves willful neglect which carries mandatory penalties. Additionally, state attorneys general are authorized to bring civil actions seeking either injunctions or damages in response to violations of HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules that threaten the privacy of state residents.
In addition to federal regulations issued under HIPAA, some states have enacted privacy and security statutes or regulations that, in some cases, are more stringent than those issued under HIPAA. In those cases, it may be necessary to modify our planned operations and procedures to comply with the more stringent state laws. If we fail to comply with applicable state laws and regulations, we could be subject to additional sanctions.
Federal and state consumer protection laws are being applied increasingly by the United States Federal Trade Commission, or FTC, and state attorneys general to regulate the collection, use, storage and disclosure of personal or patient information, through websites or otherwise, and to regulate the presentation of web site content. Courts may also adopt the standards for fair information practices promulgated by the FTC, which concern consumer notice, choice, security and access. Numerous other countries have or are developing laws governing the collection, use, disclosure and transmission of personal or patient information.
HIPAA as well as other federal and state laws apply to our receipt of patient identifiable health information in connection with research and clinical trials. We collaborate with other individuals and entities in conducting research and all involved parties must comply with applicable laws. Therefore, the compliance of the physicians, hospitals or other providers or entities with whom we collaborate also impacts our business.

Third-Party Reimbursement
Our ability to market our phototherapy products successfully depends in large part on the extent to which various third parties are willing to reimburse patients or providers for the cost of medical procedures utilizing our treatment products. These third parties include government authorities, private health insurers and other organizations, such as health maintenance organizations. Third-party payors are systematically challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. They may deny reimbursement if they determine that a prescribed device is not used in accordance with cost-effective treatment methods as determined by the payor, or is experimental, unnecessary or inappropriate. Accordingly, if less costly drugs or other treatments are available, third-party payors may not authorize, or may limit, reimbursement for the use of our products, even if our products are safer or more effective than the alternatives. Additionally, they may require changes to our pricing structure and revenue model before authorizing reimbursement.
Reimbursement systems in international markets vary significantly by country and by region within some countries, and reimbursement approvals must be obtained on a country-by-country basis. Many international markets have government-managed healthcare systems that control reimbursement for new devices and procedures. In most markets, there are private insurance systems, as well as government-managed systems. Our XTRAC products remain substantially without approval for reimbursement in many international markets under either government or private reimbursement systems.
Many private plans key their reimbursement rates to rates set by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) under three distinct Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes based on the total skin surface area being treated.
As of March 9, 2017, the national rates were as follows:

| ● | 96920 - designated for: the total area less than 250 square centimeters. CMS assigned a 2016 national payment of approximately $158.27 per treatment;
| ● | 96921 - designated for: the total area 250 to 500 square centimeters. CMS assigned a 2016 national payment of approximately $174.42 per treatment; and
| ● | 96922 - designated for: the total area over 500 square centimeters. CMS assigned a 2016 national payment of approximately $240.81 per treatment.

The national rates are adjusted by overhead factors applicable to each state.
Employees
As of March 9, 2017, we had 96 full-time employees, which consisted of two executive officers, 5 senior managers, 48 sales and marketing staff, 12 people engaged in manufacturing of lasers, 15 customer-field service personnel, 5 engaged in research and development and 9 finance and administration staff.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report and the exhibits hereto, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating our business. Our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements as discussed on page 1. Our business routinely encounters and addresses risks, some of which may cause our future results to be different – sometimes materially different – than we presently anticipate.
We have incurred losses for a number of years, and anticipate that we will incur continued losses for the foreseeable future.
Since 1999, we have primarily financed our operations through the sale of our equity securities and have devoted substantially all of our resources to research, development and commercialization of MelaFind. Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2016 was approximately $3.3 million, and as of December 31, 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $210.6 million. Our profitability was negatively impacted by interest expense related to the June 2015 financing. Our losses, among other things, have had and will continue to have an adverse effect on our stockholders' equity. Upon the closing of our acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC products in June 2015 we began to recognize revenues of those products, which we expect will provide sufficient cash flow to fund our current operations for the foreseeable future.
We may acquire other assets or businesses, or form collaborations or make investments in other companies or technologies that could harm our operating results, dilute our stockholders' ownership, increase our debt or cause us to incur significant expense.
As part of our business strategy, we may pursue acquisitions of assets, including preclinical, clinical or commercial stage products or product candidates, or businesses, or strategic alliances and collaborations, to expand our existing technologies and operations. We may not identify or complete these transactions in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis, or at all, and we may not realize the anticipated benefits of any such transaction, any of which could have a detrimental effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We have limited experience with acquiring other companies, products or product candidates, and limited experience with forming strategic alliances and collaborations. We may not be able to find suitable acquisition candidates, and if we make any acquisitions, we may not be able to integrate these acquisitions successfully into our existing business and we may incur additional debt or assume unknown or contingent liabilities in connection therewith. Integration of an acquired company or assets may also disrupt ongoing operations, require the hiring of additional personnel and the implementation of additional internal systems and infrastructure, especially the acquisition of commercial assets, and require management resources that would otherwise focus on developing our existing business. We may not be able to find suitable strategic alliances or collaboration partners or identify other investment opportunities, and we may experience losses related to any such investments.
To finance any acquisitions or collaborations, we may choose to issue debt or equity securities as consideration. Any such issuance of shares would dilute the ownership of our stockholders. If the price of our common stock is low or volatile, we may not be able to acquire other assets or companies or fund a transaction using our stock as consideration. Alternatively, it may be necessary for us to raise additional funds for acquisitions through public or private financings. Additional funds may not be available on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.
- 11 -

We may not be able to successfully integrate newly acquired businesses, joint ventures and other partnerships into our operations or achieve expected profitability from our acquisitions.
If we cannot successfully integrate acquisitions, joint ventures and other partnerships on a timely basis, we may be unable to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition costs, we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate, and our expectations of future results of operations, including certain cost savings and synergies, may not be achieved. Acquisitions involve substantial risks, including:

| ● | unforeseen difficulties in integrating operations, technologies, services, accounting and personnel;
| ● | diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations;
| ● | unforeseen difficulties related to entering geographic regions where we do not have prior experience;
| ● | risks relating to obtaining sufficient equity or debt financing;
| ● | potential loss of customers.

In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, our existing stockholders' interests would be diluted, which, in turn, could adversely impact the market price of our stock. Moreover, we could finance an acquisition with debt, resulting in higher leverage and interest costs.
Our laser treatments of psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma and any of our future products or services may fail to gain market acceptance, which could adversely affect our competitive position.
We have generated limited worldwide commercial distribution for our products. Our XTRAC systems are installed at physician offices at no upfront charge to the physician and we are paid on a per-usage method where we retain ownership of the system. We cannot assure you that our products and services will find sufficient acceptance in the marketplace under our sales strategies.
We also face a risk that other companies in the market for dermatological products and services may be able to provide dermatologists a higher overall return on investment and therefore compromise our ability to increase our base of users and ensure they engage in optimal usage of our products. If, for example, such other companies have products (such as Botox or topical creams for disease management) that require less time commitment from the dermatologist and yield an attractive return on a dermatologist's time and investment, we may find that our efforts to increase our base of users are hindered.
CPT codes for all procedures are subject to continued reevaluation. Should CMS reduce reimbursement for the CPT codes for XTRAC treatment we may see a decline in our recurring revenue business as well as a decline in new XTRAC installations.
Whether a treatment may be delegated and, if so, to whom and to what extent, are matters that may vary state by state, as these matters are within the province of the state medical boards. In states that may be more restrictive in such delegation, a physician may decline to adopt the XTRAC system into his or her practice, deeming it to be fraught with too many constraints and finding other outlets for the physician's time and staff time to be more remunerative. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in persuading such medical boards that a liberal standard for delegation is appropriate for the XTRAC system, based on its design for ease and safety of use. If we are not successful, we may find that even if a geographic region has wide insurance reimbursement, the region's physicians may decline to adopt the XTRAC system into their practices.
We therefore cannot assure you that the marketplace will be receptive to our excimer laser technology over competing products, services and therapies or that a cure will not be found for the underlying diseases we are focused on treating. Failure of our products to achieve market acceptance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- 12 -

The success of our products depends on third-party reimbursement of patients' costs, which could result in potentially reduced prices or reduced demand and adversely affect our revenues and business operations.
Our ability to market our products successfully depends in large part on the extent to which various third parties are willing to reimburse patients or providers for the costs of medical procedures utilizing such products. These third parties include government authorities, private health insurers and other organizations, such as health maintenance organizations, whose patterns of reimbursement may change as a result of new standards for reimbursement determined by these third parties or because of the programs and policies enacted under the ACA.
Third-party payors are systematically challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. They may deny reimbursement if they determine that a prescribed device is not used in accordance with cost-effective treatment methods as determined by the payor, or is experimental, unnecessary or inappropriate. Further, although third parties may approve reimbursement, such approvals may be under terms and conditions that discourage use of the XTRAC system. Accordingly, if less costly drugs or other treatments are available, third-party payors may not authorize or may limit reimbursement for the use of our products, even if our products are safer or more effective than the alternatives.
In addition, medical insurance policies and treatment coverage have been and may be affected by the parameters of the ACA or successor policies enacted by the new administration. While the ACA's stated purpose is to expand access to coverage, it also mandates certain requirements regarding the types and limitations of insurance coverage. There can be no guarantee that the changes in coverage under the ACA will not affect the type and level of reimbursement for our products.
Although we have received reimbursement approvals from a majority of private healthcare plans for the XTRAC system, we cannot give assurance that these private plans will continue to adopt or maintain favorable reimbursement policies or accept the XTRAC system in its clinical role as a second-line therapy in the treatment of psoriasis. Additionally, third-party payors may require further clinical studies or changes to our pricing structure and revenue model before authorizing or continuing reimbursement.
As of March 9, 2017, we estimate, based on published coverage policies and on payment practices of private and Medicare insurance plans, that more than 90% of the insured population in the U.S. is covered by insurance coverage or payment policies that reimburse physicians for using the XTRAC system for treatment of psoriasis. We can give no assurance that health insurers will not adversely modify their reimbursement policies for the use of the XTRAC system in the future.
Any failure in our customer education efforts could significantly reduce product marketing.
It is important to the success of our marketing efforts to educate physicians and technicians how to properly use our products. We rely on physicians to spend their time and money to participate in our pre-installation educational sessions. Moreover, if physicians and technicians use our products improperly, they may have unsatisfactory patient outcomes or, in the case of the XTRAC system, cause patient injury, which may give rise to negative publicity or lawsuits against us, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, revenues and profitability.
If revenue from a significant customer declines, we may have difficulty replacing the lost revenue, which would negatively affect our results and operations.
In our international business, we depend for a material portion of our sales in the international arena on several key sub-distributors, and especially on The Lotus Global Group, Inc., doing business as GlobalMed Technologies Co., or GlobalMed, which is our master distributor over the XTRAC and VTRAC products. If we lose GlobalMed or one of these sub-distributors, our sales of phototherapy products are likely to suffer in the short term, which could have a negative effect on our revenues and profitability.
- 13 -

If we fail to manage our sales and marketing force or to market and distribute our products effectively, we may experience diminished revenues and profits.
There are significant risks involved in building and managing our sales and marketing force and marketing our products, including our ability:

| ● | to hire, as needed, a sufficient number of qualified sales and marketing personnel with the aptitude, skills and understanding to market our products;
| ● | to adequately train our sales and marketing force in the use and benefits of all our products and services, thereby making them more effective promoters;
| ● | to manage our sales and marketing force and our ancillary channels (e.g., telesales) such that variable and semi-fixed expenses grow at a lesser rate than our revenues; and
| ● | to set the prices and other terms and conditions for treatments using the XTRAC system in a complex legal environment so that they will be accepted as attractive skin health and appropriate alternatives to conventional modalities and treatments.

To increase acceptance and utilization of our products, we may have to expand our sales and marketing programs in the U.S. While we may be able to draw on currently available personnel within our organization to meet this need, we also expect that we will have to increase the number of representatives devoted to the sales and marketing programs and to broaden, through such representatives, the talents we have at our disposal. In some cases, we may look outside our organization for assistance in marketing our products.
We are reliant on a limited number of suppliers for production of our products.
Production of our products requires specific component parts obtained from our suppliers. While we believe that we could find alternate suppliers, in the event that our suppliers fail to meet our needs, a change in suppliers or any significant delay in our ability to have access to such resources could have a material adverse effect on our delivery schedules, business, operating results and financial condition. Moreover, in the event we can no longer utilize this supplier or acquire this resource and must identify a new supplier or substitute a different resource, such change may trigger an obligation for us to comply with additional FDA regulatory requirements including, but not limited to, pre-marketing authorization and QSR requirements.
Our failure to respond to rapid changes in technology and our applications in the medical devices industry or the development of a cure for skin conditions treated by our products could make our treatment system obsolete.
The medical device industry is subject to rapid and substantial technological development and product innovations. To be successful, we must respond to new developments in technology, new applications of existing technology and new treatment methods. Our financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected if we fail to be responsive on a timely and effective basis to competitors' new devices, applications, treatments or price strategies. For example, the development of a cure for psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis or leukoderma would eliminate the need for our XTRAC system for these diseases and would require us to focus on other uses of our technology, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.
As we develop new products or improve our existing products, we may accelerate the economic obsolescence of the existing, unimproved products and their components. The obsolete products and related components may have little to no resale value, leading to an increase in the reserves we have against our inventory. Likewise, there is a risk that the new products or improved existing products may not achieve market acceptance and therefore may also lead to an increase in the reserves against our inventory.
- 14 -

On March 13, 2017 we notified the FDA that, as of September 30, 2017, we will no longer service the MelaFind device. There is a risk that customers who purchased the device may make claims for repayment of their purchase price or other demands for payment, although we believe this risk is minimal. Additionally, as the device is subject to both FDA requirements and requirements of certain foreign countries in which the device is still in use, we cannot assure you that a government agency may make a demand that we either continue to provide support or recall devices still in use and thereby increase our costs and expenses.
Our customers, or physicians and technicians, as the case may be, may misuse certain of our products, and product liability lawsuits and other damages imposed on us may exceed our insurance coverage, or we may be subject to claims that are not covered by insurance.
We may be subject to product liability claims from time to time. Our products are highly complex and some are used to treat delicate skin conditions on and near a patient's face. In addition, the clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing and use of certain of our products and procedures may also expose us to product liability, FDA regulatory and/or legal actions, or other claims. If a physician elects to apply an off-label use and the use leads to injury, we may be involved in costly litigation. In addition, the fact that we train technicians whom we do not supervise in the use of our XTRAC system during patient treatment may expose us to third-party claims if those doing the training are accused of providing inadequate training. We presently maintain liability insurance with coverage limits of at least $5,000,000 per occurrence and overall aggregate, which we believe is an adequate level of product liability insurance, but product liability insurance is expensive and we might not be able to obtain product liability insurance in the future on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts to protect us, if at all. A successful claim brought against us in excess of our insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, continuing insurance coverage may also not be available at an acceptable cost, if at all. Therefore, we may not be able to obtain insurance coverage that will be adequate to satisfy a liability that may arise. Regardless of merit or eventual outcome, product liability claims may result in decreased demand for a product, injury to its reputation, withdrawal of clinical trial volunteers and loss of revenues. As a result, regardless of whether we are insured, a product liability claim or product recall may result in losses that could result in the FDA taking legal or regulatory enforcement action against us and or our products including recall, and could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We must comply with complex statutes prohibiting fraud and abuse, and both we and physicians utilizing our products could be subject to significant penalties for noncompliance.
There are extensive federal and state laws and regulations prohibiting fraud and abuse in the healthcare industry that can result in significant criminal and civil penalties. These federal laws include:

| ● | the anti-kickback statute which prohibits certain business practices and relationships, including the payment or receipt of remuneration for the referral of patients whose care will be paid by Medicare or other federal healthcare programs, as modified by the ACA;
| ● | the physician self-referral prohibition, commonly referred to as the Stark Law;
| ● | the anti-inducement law, which prohibits providers from offering anything to a Medicare or Medicaid beneficiary to induce that beneficiary to use items or services covered by either program; the Civil False Claims Act, which prohibits any person from knowingly presenting or causing to be presented false or fraudulent claims for payment by the federal government, including the Medicare and Medicaid programs and;
| ● | the Civil Monetary Penalties Law, which authorizes HHS to impose civil penalties administratively for fraudulent or abusive acts. Sanctions for violating these federal laws include criminal and civil penalties that range from punitive sanctions, damage assessments, monetary penalties, imprisonment, denial of Medicare and Medicaid payments, or exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs, or both.

- 15 -

As federal and state budget pressures continue, federal and state administrative agencies may also continue to escalate investigation and enforcement efforts to root out waste and to control fraud and abuse in governmental healthcare programs. Private enforcement of healthcare fraud has also increased, due in large part to amendments to the Civil False Claims Act in 1986 that were designed to encourage private persons to sue on behalf of the government. A violation of any of these federal and state fraud and abuse laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition. An investigation into the use of our products by physicians may dissuade physicians from either purchasing or using our products and could have a material adverse effect on our revenues.
If the effectiveness and safety of our devices are not supported by long-term data, and the level of acceptance of our products by dermatologists does not increase or is not maintained, our revenues could decline.
Our products may not be accepted in the market if we do not produce clinical data supported by the independent efforts of clinicians. We received clearance from the FDA for the use of the XTRAC system to treat psoriasis based upon our study of a limited number of patients. Safety and efficacy data presented to the FDA for the XTRAC system was based on studies on these patients. For the treatment of vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma, we have received clearance from the FDA for the use of the XTRAC system based primarily on a showing of substantial equivalence to other previously cleared predicate devices. However, we may discover that physicians will expect clinical data on such treatments with the XTRAC system. We also may find that data from longer-term psoriasis patient follow-up studies may be inconsistent with those indicated by our relatively short-term data. If longer-term patient studies or clinical experience indicate that treatment with the XTRAC system does not provide patients with sustained benefits or that treatment with our product is less effective or less safe than our current data suggests, our revenues could decline. In addition, the FDA could then bring legal or regulatory enforcement actions against us and/or our products including, but not limited to, recalls or requirements for pre-market 510(k) authorizations. We can give no assurance that our data will be substantiated in studies involving more patients. In such a case, we may never achieve significant revenues or profitability.
Our failure to obtain or maintain necessary FDA clearances or approvals, or equivalents thereof in the U.S. and relevant foreign markets, could hurt our ability to distribute and market our products.
In both our U.S. and foreign markets, we are affected by extensive laws, governmental regulations, administrative determinations, court decisions and similar constraints. Such laws, regulations and other constraints may exist at the federal, state or local levels in the U.S. and at analogous levels of government in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, the formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution, importation, sale and storage of our products are subject to extensive regulation by various federal agencies, including, but not limited to, the FDA and the FTC, State Attorneys General in the U.S., as well as by various other federal, state, local and international regulatory authorities in the countries in which its products are manufactured, distributed or sold. If we or our manufacturers fail to comply with those regulations, we could become subject to significant penalties or claims, which could harm our results of operations or our ability to conduct our business. In addition, the adoption of new regulations or changes in the interpretations of existing regulations may result in significant compliance costs or discontinuation of product sales and may impair the marketing of our products, resulting in significant loss of net sales. Our failure to comply with federal or state regulations, or with regulations in foreign markets that cover our product claims and advertising, including direct claims and advertising by us, may result in enforcement actions and imposition of penalties or otherwise harm the distribution and sale of its products. Further, our businesses are subject to laws governing our accounting, tax and import and export activities. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in legal and/or financial consequences that might adversely affect our sales and profitability. Each medical device that we wish to market in the U.S. must first receive either 510(k) clearance or PMA from the FDA unless an exemption applies. Either process can be lengthy and expensive. The FDA's 510(k) clearance process may take from three to twelve months, or longer, and may or may not require human clinical data. The PMA process is much more costly and lengthy. It may take from eleven months to three years, or even longer, and will likely require significant supporting human clinical data. Delays in obtaining regulatory clearance or approval could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. Although we have obtained a PMA for the MelaFind system to aid in the diagnosis of melanoma and 510(k) clearances for our XTRAC system for use in treating psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic
- 16 -

dermatitis and leukoderma, these approvals and clearances may be subject to revocation if post-marketing data demonstrates safety issues or lack of effectiveness. Similar clearance processes may apply in foreign countries. Further, more stringent regulatory requirements or safety and quality standards may be issued in the future with an adverse effect on our business.
If required, clinical trials necessary to support a 510(k) notice or PMA application will be expensive and will require the enrollment of large numbers of patients, and suitable patients may be difficult to identify and recruit. Delays or failures in our clinical trials will prevent us from commercializing any modified or new products and will adversely affect our business, operating results and prospects.
Initiating and completing clinical trials necessary to support a 510(k) notice or a PMA application will be time-consuming and expensive and the outcome uncertain. Moreover, the results of early clinical trials are not necessarily predictive of future results, and any product we advance into clinical trials may not have favorable results in early or later clinical trials.
Conducting successful clinical studies will require the enrollment of large numbers of patients, and suitable patients may be difficult to identify and recruit. Patient enrollment in clinical trials and completion of patient participation and follow-up depend on many factors, including the size of the patient population, the nature of the trial protocol, the attractiveness of, or the discomforts and risks associated with, the treatments received by patients enrolled as subjects, the availability of appropriate clinical trial investigators, support staff, and proximity of patients to clinical sites and ability to comply with the eligibility and exclusion criteria for participation in the clinical trial and patient compliance. For example, patients may be discouraged from enrolling in our clinical trials if the trial protocol requires them to undergo extensive post-treatment procedures or follow-up to assess the safety and effectiveness of our products or if they determine that the treatments received under the trial protocols are not attractive or involve unacceptable risks or discomforts. Patients may also not participate in our clinical trials if they choose to participate in contemporaneous clinical trials of competitive products. In addition, patients participating in clinical trials may die before completion of the trial or suffer adverse medical events unrelated to investigational products.
Development of sufficient and appropriate clinical protocols to demonstrate safety and efficacy may be required and we may not adequately develop such protocols to support clearance and approval. Further, the FDA may require us to submit data on a greater number of patients than we originally anticipated and/or for a longer follow-up period or change the data collection requirements or data analysis for any clinical trials. Delays in patient enrollment or failure of patients to continue to participate in a clinical trial may cause an increase in costs and delays in the approval and attempted commercialization of our products or result in the failure of the clinical trial. The FDA may not consider our data adequate to demonstrate safety and efficacy. Such increased costs and delays or failures could adversely affect our business, operating results and prospects.
Our medical device operations are subject to pervasive and continuing FDA regulatory requirements.
Medical devices regulated by the FDA are subject to "general controls" which include: registration with the FDA; listing commercially distributed products with the FDA; complying with good manufacturing practices under the quality system regulations; filing reports with the FDA of and keeping records relative to certain types of adverse events associated with devices under the medical device reporting regulation; assuring that device labeling complies with device labeling requirements; reporting certain device field removals and corrections to the FDA; and obtaining premarket notification 510(k) clearance for devices prior to marketing. Some devices known as "510(k)-exempt" can be marketed without prior marketing clearance or approval from the FDA. In addition to the "general controls," some Class II medical devices are also subject to "special controls," including adherence to a particular guidance document and compliance with the performance standard. Instead of obtaining 510(k) clearance, some Class III devices are subject to PMA. In general, obtaining PMA to achieve marketing authorization from the FDA is a more onerous process than seeking 510(k) clearance.

Many medical devices, such as medical lasers, are also regulated by the FDA as "electronic products." In general, manufacturers and marketers of "electronic products" are subject to certain FDA regulatory requirements intended to ensure the radiological safety of the products. These requirements include, but are not limited to, filing certain reports with the FDA about the products and defects/safety issues related to the products as well as complying with radiological performance standards.
The medical device industry is now experiencing greater scrutiny and regulation by federal, state and foreign governmental authorities. Companies in our industry are subject to more frequent and more intensive reviews and investigations, often involving the marketing, business practices, and product quality management including standards for device recalls and product labeling. Such reviews and investigations may result in the civil and criminal proceedings; the imposition of substantial fines and penalties; the receipt of Warning Letters, untitled letters, demands for recalls or the seizure of our products; the requirement to enter into corporate integrity agreements, stipulated judgments or other administrative remedies, and result in our incurring substantial unanticipated costs and the diversion of key personnel and management's attention from their regular duties, any of which may have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, and may result in greater and continuing governmental scrutiny of our business in the future.
We must also have the appropriate FDA clearances and/or approvals from other governmental entities in order to lawfully market devices and or/drugs. The FDA, federal, state or foreign governments and agencies may disagree that we have such clearance and/or approvals for all of our products and may take action to prevent the marketing and sale of such devices until such disagreements have been resolved.
Additionally, federal, state and foreign governments and entities have enacted laws and issued regulations and other standards requiring increased visibility and transparency of our interactions with healthcare providers. For example, the U.S. Physician Payment Sunshine Act requires us to disclose payments and other transfers of value to all U.S. physicians and U.S. teaching hospitals at the U.S. federal level made. Failure to comply with these legal and regulatory requirements could impact our business, and we have had and will continue to spend substantial time and financial resources to develop and implement enhanced structures, policies, systems and processes to comply with these legal and regulatory requirements, which may also impact our business.
Healthcare policy changes may have a material adverse effect on us.
Healthcare costs have risen significantly over the past decade. As a result, there have been and continue to be proposals by federal, state and foreign governments and regulators as well as third-party insurance providers to limit the growth of these costs. Among these proposals are regulations that could impose limitations on the prices we will be able to charge for our products, the amounts of reimbursement available for our products from governmental agencies or third-party payors, requirements regarding the usage of comparative studies, technology assessments and healthcare delivery structure reforms to determine the effectiveness and select the products and therapies used for treatment of patients. While we believe our products provide favorable clinical outcomes, value and cost efficiency, the resources necessary to demonstrate this value to our customers, patients, payors, and regulators is significant and may require longer periods of time and effort in which to obtain acceptance of our products. There is no assurance that our efforts will be successful, and these limitations could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
These changes and additional proposed changes in the future could adversely affect the demand for our products as well as the way in which we conduct our business. For example, the ACA was enacted into law in the U.S. in March 2010. The law imposed on medical device manufacturers a 2.3 percent excise tax on U.S. sales of Class I, II and III medical devices, which includes certain products marketed and sold by us, as well as requiring research into the effectiveness of treatment modalities and instituting changes to the reimbursement and payment systems for patient treatments. In addition, governments and regulatory agencies continue to study and propose changes to the laws governing the clearance or approval, manufacture and marketing of medical devices, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

FDA regulations and guidance are often revised or reinterpreted by the FDA in ways that may significantly affect our business and our products. The FDA is currently exploring ways to modify its 510(k) clearance process. In addition, due to changes at the FDA in general, it has become increasingly more difficult to obtain 510(k) clearance as data requirements have increased. It is impossible to predict whether legislative changes will be enacted or FDA regulations, guidance or interpretations changed, and what the impact of such changes, if any, may be. However, any changes could make it more difficult for us to maintain or attain clearance or approval to develop and commercialize our products and technologies.
Various healthcare reform proposals have also emerged at the state level. We cannot predict what healthcare initiatives, if any, will be implemented at the federal or state level, or the effect any future legislation or regulation will have on us. However, an expansion in government's role in the U.S. healthcare industry may lower reimbursements for our products, reduce medical procedure volumes and adversely affect our business, possibly materially. In addition, if the excise taxes contained in the House or Senate health reform bills are enacted into law, our operating expenses resulting from such an excise tax and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
Our market acceptance in international markets requires regulatory approvals from foreign governments and may depend on third party reimbursement of participants' cost.
We have introduced our XTRAC and VTRAC products into markets in more than 30 countries in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, South Africa and parts of Central and South America through distributors. We cannot be certain that our salesforce and distributor network will be successful in marketing our products in these or other countries or that our distributors will purchase XTRAC or VTRAC systems beyond their current contractual obligations or in accordance with our expectations.
Even if we obtain and maintain the necessary foreign regulatory registrations or approvals, market acceptance of our products in international markets may be dependent, in part, upon the availability of reimbursement within applicable healthcare payment systems. Reimbursement and healthcare payment systems in international markets vary significantly by country, and include both government-sponsored healthcare and private insurance. We may seek international reimbursement approvals for our products, but we cannot assure you that any such approvals will be obtained in a timely manner, if at all. Failure to receive international reimbursement approvals in any given market could have a material adverse effect on the acceptance or growth of our products in that market or others.
We may become subject to claims of infringement or misappropriation of the intellectual property rights of others, which could prohibit us from shipping affected products, require us to obtain licenses from third parties or to develop non-infringing alternatives, and subject us to substantial monetary damages and injunctive relief. Our patents may also be subject to challenge on validity grounds, and our patent applications may be rejected.
Third parties could, in the future, assert infringement or misappropriation claims against us with respect to our current or future products. Whether a product infringes a patent involves complex legal and factual issues, the determination of which is often uncertain. Therefore, we cannot be certain that we have not infringed the intellectual property rights of such third parties. Our potential competitors may assert that some aspect of our products infringes their patents. There also may be existing patents of which we are unaware that one or more components of our products may inadvertently infringe.
Any infringement or misappropriation claim could cause us to incur significant costs, could place significant strain on our financial resources, divert management's attention from our business and harm our reputation. If the relevant patents were upheld as valid and enforceable and we were found to infringe, we could be prohibited from selling our product unless we could obtain licenses to use the technology covered by the patent or are able to design around the patent. We may be unable to obtain a license on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and we may not be able to redesign the affected product to avoid infringement.
- 19 -

A court could order us to pay compensatory damages for such infringement, plus prejudgment interest and could, in addition, treble the compensatory damages and award attorney fees. These damages could be substantial and could harm our reputation, business, financial condition and operating results. A court also could enter orders that temporarily, preliminarily or permanently enjoin us and our customers from making, using, selling, offering to sell or importing MelaFind, and/or could enter an order mandating that we undertake certain remedial activities. Depending on the nature of the relief ordered by the court, we could become liable for additional damages to third parties.
We rely on our patents, patent applications and other intellectual property rights to give us a competitive advantage. Whether a patent is valid, or whether a patent application should be granted, is a complex matter of science and law. Therefore we cannot be certain that, if challenged, our patents, patent applications and/or other intellectual property rights would be upheld. If one or more of those patents, patent applications and other intellectual property rights are invalidated, rejected or found unenforceable, those outcomes could reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage we might otherwise have had.
We may be subject, directly or indirectly, to federal and state healthcare fraud and abuse laws and regulations and could face substantial penalties if we are unable to fully comply with such laws.
While we do not control referrals of healthcare services or bill directly to Medicare, Medicaid or other third-party payors, many healthcare laws and regulations apply to our business. For example, we could be subject to healthcare fraud and abuse and patient privacy regulation and enforcement by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our business. The healthcare laws and regulations that may affect our ability to operate include:

|  | ● | the federal healthcare programs' Anti-Kickback Law, as modified by the ACA, which prohibits, among other things, persons or entities from soliciting, receiving, offering or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in return for or to induce either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase order or recommendation of, any item or service for which payment may be made under a federal healthcare program such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs;
|  | ● | federal false claims laws which prohibit, among other things, individuals or entities from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, claims for payment from Medicare, Medicaid, or other third-party payors that are false or fraudulent, or are for items or services not provided as claimed and which may apply to entities like us to the extent that our interactions with customers may affect their billing or coding practices;
|  | ● | the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, which established new federal crimes for knowingly and willfully executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program or making false statements in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services, as well as leading to regulations imposing certain requirements relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information; and
|  | ● | state law equivalents of each of the above federal laws, such as anti-kickback and false claims laws which may apply to items or services reimbursed by any third-party payor, including commercial insurers, and state laws governing the privacy of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other in significant ways and often are not preempted by HIPAA, thus complicating compliance efforts.

The medical device industry has been under heightened scrutiny as the subject of government investigations and regulatory or legal enforcement actions involving manufacturers who allegedly offered unlawful inducements to potential or existing customers in an attempt to procure their business, including arrangements with physician consultants. If our operations or arrangements are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other governmental regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to penalties, including civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines, exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs and the curtailment or restructuring of its operations. Any penalties, damages, fines, exclusions, curtailment or restructuring of our operations could
- 20 -

adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results. The risk of us being found in violation of these laws is increased by the fact that many of these laws are broad and their provisions are open to a variety of interpretations. Any action against us for violation of these laws, even if we successfully defend against that action and the underlying alleged violations, could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and divert our management's attention from the operation of our business. If the physicians or other providers or entities with whom we do business are found to be non-compliant with applicable laws, they may be subject to sanctions, which could also have a negative impact on our business.
If we or our third-party manufacturers or suppliers fail to comply with the FDA's Quality System Regulation or any applicable state equivalent, our manufacturing operations could be interrupted and our potential product sales and operating results could suffer.
We and some of our third-party manufacturers and suppliers are required to comply with some or all of the FDA's drug Good Manufacturing Practices or its QSR, which delineates the design controls, document controls, purchasing controls, identification and traceability, production and process controls, acceptance activities, nonconforming product requirements, corrective and preventive action requirements, labeling and packaging controls, handling, storage, distribution and installation requirements, records requirements, servicing requirements, and statistical techniques potentially applicable to the production of our medical devices. We and our manufacturers and suppliers are also subject to the regulations of foreign jurisdictions regarding the manufacturing process if we market its products overseas. The FDA enforces the QSR through periodic and announced or unannounced inspections of manufacturing facilities. Our facilities have been inspected by the FDA and other regulatory authorities, and we anticipate that we and certain of our third-party manufacturers and suppliers will be subject to additional future inspections. If our facilities or those of our manufacturers or suppliers are found to be in non-compliance or fail to take satisfactory corrective action in response to adverse QSR inspectional findings, FDA could take legal or regulatory enforcement actions against us and/or our products, including but not limited to the cessation of sales or the recall of distributed products, which could impair our ability to produce our products in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to meet our customers' demands. We may also be required to bear other costs or take other actions that may have a negative impact on our future sales and our ability to generate profits.
Current regulations depend heavily on administrative interpretation. If the FDA does not believe that we are in substantial compliance with applicable FDA regulations, the agency could take legal or regulatory enforcement actions against us and/or our products. We are also subject to periodic inspections by the FDA, other governmental regulatory agencies, as well as certain third-party regulatory groups. Future interpretations made by the FDA or other regulatory bodies made during the course of these inspections may vary from current interpretations and may adversely affect our business and prospects. The FDA's and foreign regulatory agencies' statutes, regulations, or policies may change, and additional government regulation or statutes may be enacted, which could increase post-approval regulatory requirements, or delay, suspend, prevent marketing of any cleared / approved products or necessitate the recall of distributed products. We cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse governmental regulation that might arise from future legislative or administrative action, either in the U.S. or abroad.
The medical device industry has been under heightened FDA scrutiny as the subject of government investigations and enforcement actions. If our operations and activities are found to be in violation of any FDA laws or any other governmental regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to penalties, including civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines and other legal and/or agency enforcement actions. Any penalties, damages, fines, or curtailment or restructuring of our operations or activities could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results. The risk of us being found in violation of FDA laws is increased by the fact that many of these laws are broad and their provisions are open to a variety of interpretations. Any action against us for violation of these laws, even if we successfully defend ourselves against that action and its underlying allegations, could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and divert management's attention from the operation of our business. Where there is a dispute with a federal or state governmental agency that cannot be resolved to the mutual satisfaction of all relevant parties, we may determine that the costs, both real and contingent, are not justified by the commercial returns to us from maintaining the dispute or the product.
- 21 -

Various claims, design features or performance characteristics of our medical devices, that we regarded as permitted by the FDA without marketing clearance or approval, may be challenged by the FDA or state regulators. The FDA or state regulatory authorities may find that certain claims, design features or performance characteristics, in order to be made or included in the products, may have to be supported by further studies and marketing clearances or approvals, which could be lengthy, costly and possibly unobtainable.
If we fail to comply with ongoing regulatory requirements, or if we experience unanticipated problems with products, these products could be subject to restrictions or withdrawal from the market.
We are also subject to similar state requirements and licenses. Failure by us to comply with statutes and regulations administered by the FDA and other regulatory bodies, discovery of previously unknown problems with our products (including unanticipated adverse events or adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency), manufacturing problems, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, or failure to adequately respond to any FDA observations concerning these issues, could result in, among other things, any of the following actions:

| ● | warning letters or untitled letters issued by the FDA;
| ● | fines, civil penalties, injunctions and criminal prosecution;
| ● | unanticipated expenditures to address or defend such actions;
| ● | delays in clearing or approving, or refusal to clear or approve, our products;
| ● | withdrawal or suspension of clearance or approval of our products by the FDA or other regulatory bodies;
| ● | product recall or seizure;
| ● | orders for physician or customer notification or device repair, replacement or refund;
| ● | interruption of production; and
| ● | operating restrictions.

If any of these actions were to occur, it would harm our reputation and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our medical products may in the future be subject to product recalls that could harm our reputation, business and financial results.
The FDA has the authority to require the recall of commercialized medical device products in the event of material deficiencies or defects in design or manufacture. In the case of the FDA, the authority to require a recall must be based on an FDA finding that there is a reasonable probability that the device would cause serious injury or death. Manufacturers may, under their own initiative, recall a product if any material deficiency in a device is found. A government-mandated or voluntary recall by us or one of our distributors could occur as a result of component failures, manufacturing errors, design or labeling defects or other deficiencies and issues. Recalls of any of our products would divert managerial and financial resources and have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The FDA requires that certain classifications of recalls be reported to the FDA within ten working days after the recall is initiated. Companies are required to maintain certain records of recalls, even if they are not reportable to the FDA. We may initiate voluntary recalls involving our products in the future that we determine do not require notification of the FDA. If the FDA disagrees with our determinations, they could require us to report those actions as recalls. A future recall announcement could harm our reputation with customers and negatively affect its sales. In addition, the FDA could take enforcement action for failing to report the recalls when they were conducted.
If any of our medical products cause or contribute to a death or a serious injury, or malfunction in certain ways, we will be subject to medical device reporting regulations, which can result in voluntary corrective actions or agency enforcement actions.
Under the FDA medical device reporting regulations, medical device manufacturers are required to report to the FDA information that a device has or may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or has malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to death or serious injury if the malfunction of the
- 22 -

device or one of our similar devices were to recur. If we fail to report these events to the FDA within the required timeframes, or at all, the FDA could take enforcement action against us. Any such adverse event involving our products also could result in future voluntary corrective actions, such as recalls or customer notifications, or agency action, such as inspection or enforcement action. Any corrective action, whether voluntary or involuntary, as well as defending ourselves in a lawsuit, will require our time and capital, distract management from operating our business, and may harm our reputation and financial results.
We have a need for operating funds and there is no guarantee that we will be able to generate those funds from our business.
Our capital and future revenue may not be sufficient to support the expenses of our operations in the near term, although based upon our current budgeting and projected cash flow models, we believe that we will be able to support our operations for at least the next twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-K. We plan to fund operations by the recurring revenue generated by the use of the XTRAC lasers in the U.S. plus sales of the XTRAC and VTRAC units internationally. If revenues from the sale and use of our existing products are inadequate to fund our operations, we may need to raise additional financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise additional capital or secure alternate financing to fund operations, if necessary, or that we will be able to raise additional capital under terms that are favorable to us. Further, we cannot assure that the Acquisition will in any way negate or mitigate our need for future capital. Any additional financing may dilute the ownership interest of our existing stockholders and could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
If we do not have enough capital to fund operations, then we will have to cut costs or raise funds.
If we are unable to raise additional funds, if necessary, under terms acceptable to us and in the interests of our stockholders, then we will have to take measures to cut operating costs or obtain funds using alternative methods, such as:

| ● | Sell or license some of our technologies that we would not otherwise sell or license if we were in a stronger financial position;
| ● | Sell or license some of our technologies under terms that are less favorable than they otherwise might have been if we were in a stronger financial position; and
| ● | Consider further business combination transactions with other companies or positioning ourselves to be acquired by another company.

If it became necessary to take one or more of the above-listed actions, then our perceived valuation may be lower, which could impact the market price of our stock. Further, the effects on our operations, financial performance and stock price may be significant if we do not or cannot take one or more of the above-listed actions in a timely manner and when needed, and our ability to do so may be limited significantly due to the instability of the global financial markets and the resulting limitations on available financing to us and to potential licensees, buyers and investors. Additionally these options may not be available to us as all of our assets have been pledged as security for the various financings.
Risks Relating to the 2015 Financing
The debentures we issued in June 2015 (the "Debentures") contain covenants that could limit our financing options and liquidity position, which would limit our ability to grow our business.
The Debentures contain certain covenants and representations limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, other than specified permitted indebtedness, and from entering into or creating any liens on our assets, other than certain permitted liens. These restrictions may limit our ability to obtain additional financing, withstand downturns in our business or take advantage of business opportunities. Moreover, additional debt financing we may seek may contain terms that include more restrictive covenants, may require repayment on an accelerated schedule or may impose other obligations that limit our ability to grow our business, acquire needed assets, or take other actions we might otherwise consider appropriate or desirable.
- 23 -

Our failure to avoid events of default as defined in the Debentures could require us to redeem such Debentures at a premium.
The Debentures provide that, upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default," the interest rate on the Debentures increases to 12%. Events of Default under the Debentures include, among other things: (1) suspension or removal from the Nasdaq Capital Market or other permissible trading market for specified time periods; (2) failure to pay principal, interest, late charges and other amounts due under the Debentures; (3) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency of our company; and (4) failure to make payment with respect to any indebtedness in excess of $150,000 to any third party, or the occurrence of a default or event of default under certain agreements binding our company. In addition, upon an Event of Default, the Debentures become, at the holder's election, immediately due and payable.
Our ability to avoid such Events of Default may be affected by changes in our business condition or results of our operations, or other events beyond our control. If we were to experience an Event of Default and the holders elected to have us redeem their Debentures, we may not have sufficient resources to do so, and we may have to seek additional debt or equity financing to cover the costs of redeeming the Debentures. Any additional debt or equity financing that we may need may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all.
We are required to remain listed on a nationally recognized stock exchange and failure to maintain that listing would be a default under the debenture. (See "Risks Related to Our Common Stock.")
Issuance of shares of our common stock upon the exercise of options or warrants and upon conversion of convertible debentures will dilute the ownership interest of our existing stockholders and could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
The exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and conversions of outstanding convertible debentures, including the Debentures and the Warrants, and the sales of stock issuable pursuant to them would reduce a stockholder's percentage voting and ownership interest. The exercise, or potential exercise, of these options and warrants and the conversion, or potential conversion, of the debentures could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the terms on which we could obtain additional financing. The ownership interest of our existing stockholders may be further diluted through adjustments to certain outstanding Warrants and Debentures under the terms of their anti-dilution provisions.
We may become obligated to pay liquidated damages if we fail to file, obtain effectiveness and maintain effectiveness of a registration statement under a registration rights agreement we entered into with the Selling Stockholders.
We have 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 a 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.
- 24 -

Risks Relating to the December 30, 2015 Financing (the "Refinancing")
If we fail to abide by the terms and conditions of the Refinancing, the secured lenders have the right to proceed against our intellectual property and other assets pursuant to their first priority security interest.
On December 30, 2015, we entered into a $12.0 million credit facility pursuant to a Credit and Security Agreement (the "Agreement") and related financing documents with MidCap Financial Trust ("MidCap") and the lenders listed in the loan documents. We have drawn down the full $12.0 million available to us. Our obligations under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on all of our assets. Other financing documents included subordination agreements and other amendments with our existing debenture holders from its 2014 and 2015 financings. Our commitments under the Agreement require that we maintain our listing on a nationally recognized stock exchange. (See "Risks Related to our Common Stock." Our failure to abide by our on-going obligations under the loan documents could result in the lender seizing our assets.
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock
We are not currently in compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid Nasdaq listing requirement. Failure to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market could adversely affect us, including our ability to maintain compliance with certain debt covenants and to raise funds.
On April 27, 2016, we received a letter (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the NASDAQ Stock Market (the "Staff") notifying us that we are not in compliance with the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement under the NASDAQ Listing Rules (the "Listing Rules"). The Listing Rules require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. If a NASDAQ-listed company trades below the minimum bid price requirement for 30 consecutive business days, it is notified of the deficiency. Based upon the Staff's review, we no longer satisfy this requirement. The Listing Rules provide us with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until October 24, 2016, to regain compliance with this requirement.
To regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, we must have a closing bid price of $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this compliance period. In the event that we do not regain compliance within this period, we may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance by satisfying certain requirements. However, if it appears to the Staff that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible, the Staff will notify us that our common stock will be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market. We may appeal the Staff's determination to delist our common stock to a Hearing Panel. During any appeal process, our common stock would continue to trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market.
We did not regain compliance during the cure period which ran for 180 days and began on April 27, 2016.
On October 25, 2016, we were notified by NASDAQ that NASDAQ had granted us an extension of the deadline to April 24, 2017 to demonstrate compliance with NASDAQ's continued listing requirements.
We will continue to monitor the closing bid price for our common stock and to assess our options for maintaining the listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market in light of the Notice. Failure to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market would lead to an event of default under the debentures issued in our 2015 financing. Also, if delisting were to occur, selling our common stock could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, transactions could be delayed, and security analysts' coverage of us may be reduced. Furthermore, while we believe that our common stock would trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, we would lose various advantages attendant to listing on a national securities exchange, including but not limited to, eligibility to register the sale or resale of our shares on Form S-3 and the automatic exemption from registration under state securities laws for exchange-listed securities, which could have a negative effect on our ability to raise funds. Additionally it would be deemed a default under the 2015 debentures and a breach of our affirmative covenants and therefore an event of default under our financing documents with Midcap.
- 25 -

As one approach to curing the listing deficiency, we have asked the Shareholders to approve a reverse stock-split of up to 1 for 10 of our common stock. We have scheduled the meeting for March 29, 2017 and we cannot assure you that we will have the necessary quorum to hold a vote on the proposal, or that if we do have a quorum that there will be a majority of shares cast in favor of authorizing the company to effect a reverse split.
If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, our ability to provide accurate financial statements could be impaired and any failure to maintain our internal controls could have an adverse effect on our stock price.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX"), as well as rules implemented by the SEC, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the Nasdaq Stock Market, have required changes in the corporate governance practices of public companies. Monitoring compliance with the existing rules and implementing changes required by these rules is expensive and may increase our legal and financial compliance costs, divert management attention from operations and strategic opportunities, and make legal, accounting and administrative activities more time-consuming. Since 2008, we have retained a consultant experienced in SOX that assists us in the process of instituting changes to our internal procedures to satisfy the requirements of the SOX. We have evaluated our internal control systems in order to allow us to report on our internal controls, as required by Section 404 of the SOX. See Item 9A included herein. As a small company with limited capital and human resources, we may need to divert management's time and attention away from our business in order to ensure continued compliance with these regulatory requirements. We may require new information technologies systems, the auditing of our internal controls, and compliance training for our directors, officers and personnel. Such efforts may entail a significant expense. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the SOX. Any failure to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls could have an adverse effect on timely and accurate financial reporting and the trading price of our common stock.
Our stock price may be volatile, meaning purchasers of our common stock could incur substantial losses.
Our stock price has been and is likely to continue to be volatile. The stock market in general and the market for medical technology companies in particular have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. The following factors, in addition to other risk factors described in this section and general market and economic conditions, may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock:

| ● | failure of any of our products to achieve or continue to have commercial success;
| ● | the timing of regulatory approval for our future products;
| ● | adverse regulatory determinations with respect to our existing products;
| ● | results of our research and development efforts and our clinical trials;
| ● | the announcement of new products or product enhancements by us or our competitors;
| ● | regulatory developments in the U.S. and foreign countries;
| ● | our ability to manufacture our products to commercial standards;
| ● | developments concerning our clinical collaborators, suppliers or marketing partners;
| ● | changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;
| ● | public concern over our products;
| ● | developments or disputes concerning patents or other intellectual property rights;
| ● | product liability claims and litigation against us or our competitors;
| ● | the departure of key personnel;
| ● | the strength of our balance sheet;

- 26 -

| ● | variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us;
| ● | changes in the structure of third-party reimbursement in the U.S. and other countries;
| ● | changes in accounting principles or practices;
| ● | general economic, industry and market conditions; and
| ● | future sales of our common stock.

A decline in the market price of our common stock could cause you to lose some or all of your investment, limit your ability to sell your shares of stock and may adversely impact our ability to attract and retain employees and raise capital. In addition, stockholders have, and may in the future, initiate securities class action lawsuits if the market price of our stock drops significantly. Whether or not meritorious, litigation brought against us could result in substantial costs and could divert the time and attention of our management. Our insurance to cover claims of this sort may not be adequate.
Our charter documents and Delaware law may inhibit a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and could also limit the market price of our stock.
Provisions of our restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable provisions of Delaware law may make it more difficult for or prevent a third party from acquiring control of us without the approval of our board of directors. These provisions:

| ● | limit who may call a special meeting of stockholders;
| ● | establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon at stockholder meetings;
| ● | do not permit cumulative voting in the election of our directors, which would otherwise permit less than a majority of stockholders to elect directors;
| ● | prohibit stockholder action by written consent, thereby requiring all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders; and
| ● | provide our board of directors the ability to designate the terms of and issue a new series of preferred stock without stockholder approval.

In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law generally limits our ability to engage in any business combination with certain persons who own 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock or any of our associates or affiliates who at any time in the past three years have owned 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock.
These provisions may have the effect of entrenching our management team and may deprive you of the opportunity to sell your shares to potential acquirers at a premium over prevailing prices. This potential inability to obtain a control premium could reduce the price of our common stock.

Item 7. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following financial data, in this narrative, are expressed in thousands, except for the earnings per share. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Report. Dollar amounts are reported in thousands, except per share and per treatment data.
Introduction, Outlook and Overview of Business Operations
We are a medical technology company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative products for the treatment of dermatological disorders. In June 2015, we completed the acquisition of the XTRAC System and the VTRAC System businesses from PhotoMedex, Inc. The XTRAC and VTRAC products are FDA cleared devices for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin disorders. The purchase price was $42,403 plus the assumption of certain business-related liabilities. Management believes that these businesses acquired create a platform on which to transform STRATA into a leading medical dermatology company. Management further believes that the cash flow generated by these businesses will be sufficient to finance our operations for the at least the next twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-K.
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 December 31, 2016, there were 775 XTRAC systems placed in dermatologists' offices in the United States under our recurring revenue model, up from 718 at the end of December 2015. 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 system, 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.
The financial results of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses have been included in the results of operations subsequent to June 22, 2015, the date of the acquisition. The assets of the acquired businesses and liabilities assumed have been consolidated as of June 22, 2015.
We are in the process of discontinuing our efforts to develop and commercialize the MelaFind System. 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 in the United States 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.
Key Technology

| • | XTRAC® Excimer Laser. XTRAC received FDA clearance in 2000 and has since become a widely recognized treatment among dermatologists for psoriasis and other skin diseases. The XTRAC System delivers ultra-narrowband ultraviolet B ("UVB") light to affected areas of skin. Following a series of treatments typically performed twice weekly, psoriasis remission can be achieved and vitiligo patches can be re-pigmented. XTRAC is endorsed by the National Psoriasis Foundation, and its use for psoriasis is covered by nearly all major insurance companies, including Medicare. We estimate that more than half of all major insurance companies now offer reimbursement for vitiligo as well, a figure that is increasing.

- 30 -

| • | VTRAC® Lamp. VTRAC received FDA clearance in 2005 and provides targeted therapeutic efficacy demonstrated by excimer technology with the simplicity of design and reliability of a lamp system.

Sales and Marketing
As of December 31, 2016, our sales and marketing personnel consisted of 48 full-time employees, 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.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in this Report are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosures at the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, inventories, impairment of property and equipment and of intangibles and accruals for warranty claims. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Management believes that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. These critical accounting policies and the significant estimates made in accordance with these policies have been discussed with our Audit Committee.
Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenues from product sales when the following four criteria have been met: (i) the product has been delivered and we have no significant remaining obligations; (ii) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (iii) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. Revenues from product sales are recorded net of provisions for expected returns and cash discounts.
We ship most of our products FOB shipping point, although from time to time certain customers, for example governmental customers, will be granted FOB destination terms. Among the factors we take into account when determining the proper time at which to recognize revenue are (i) when title to the goods transfers and (ii) when the risk of loss transfers. Shipments to distributors or physicians that do not fully satisfy the collection criteria are recognized when invoiced amounts are fully paid or fully assured and included in deferred revenues until that time.
For revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables within a single, contractually binding arrangement (usually sales of products with separately priced extended warranty), each element of the contract is accounted for as a separate unit of accounting when it provides the customer value on a stand-alone basis and there is objective evidence of the fair value of the related unit.
We have two distribution channels for our phototherapy treatment equipment. We either (i) place our lasers in a physician's office (at no charge to the physician) and generally charge the physician a fee for an agreed upon number of treatments or (ii) sell our lasers through a distributor or directly to a physician. In some cases, when the laser is placed in a physician's office at no charge, we and the customer stipulate to a quarterly or other periodic target of procedures to be performed, and accordingly revenue is recognized ratably over the period.
When we place a laser in a physician's office, we generally recognize revenue based on the number of patient treatments performed, or purchased under a periodic commitment, by the physician. Amounts collected with respect to treatments to be performed through laser-access codes that are sold to physicians free of a periodic commitment, but not yet used, are deferred and recognized as a liability until the physician performs the treatment. Unused treatments remain our obligation because the treatments can only be performed on our-owned equipment. Once the treatments are performed, this obligation has been satisfied.
- 31 -

We defer substantially all revenue from sales of treatment codes ordered by and performed by our customers within the last two weeks of the period in determining the amount of procedures performed by our customers. Management believes this approach closely approximates the actual amount of unused treatments that exist at the end of a period.
For our MelaFind products, we utilize a direct sales force which sells the system to the physician's office and we recognize revenue upon shipment of the system to the purchaser after receipt of the fully-executed purchase agreement.
Inventory. We account for inventory at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined to be purchased cost for raw materials and the production cost (materials, labor and indirect manufacturing cost) for work-in-process and finished goods. The cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method. Throughout the laser manufacturing process, the related production costs are recorded within inventory. Work-in-process is immaterial, given the typically short manufacturing cycle, and therefore is disclosed in conjunction with raw materials. We perform full physical inventory counts for XTRAC and cycle counts on the other inventory to maintain controls and obtain accurate data.
Our XTRAC laser is either (i) sold to distributors or physicians directly or (ii) placed in a physician's office and remains our property. The cost to build a laser, whether for sale or for placement, is accumulated in inventory. When a laser is placed in a physician's office, the cost is transferred from inventory to "lasers in service" within property and equipment. At times, units are shipped to distributors, but revenue is not recognized until all of the revenue recognition criteria have been met, and until that time, the unit is carried on our books as inventory. Revenue is not recognized from these distributors until payment is either assured or paid in full.
Reserves for slow-moving, excess and obsolete inventories, reduce the historical carrying value of our inventories, and are provided based on historical experience and product demand. Management evaluates the adequacy of these reserves periodically based on forecasted sales and market trends.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. From time to time, our customers dispute the amounts due to us, and, in other cases, our customers experience financial difficulties and cannot pay on a timely basis. In certain instances, these factors ultimately result in uncollectible accounts. The determination of the appropriate reserve needed for uncollectible accounts involves significant judgment. Such factors include changes in the financial condition of our customers as a result of industry, economic or customer-specific factors. A change in the factors used to evaluate collectability could result in a significant change in the allowance needed. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, allowance for doubtful accounts was $135 and $45, respectively.
Property and Equipment. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we had net property and equipment of $10,180 and $13,851, respectively. The most significant component relates to the XTRAC lasers placed by us in physicians' offices. We own the equipment and charge the physician on a per-treatment basis for use of the equipment. The recoverability of the net carrying value of the lasers is predicated on continuing revenues from the physicians' use of the lasers. If the physician does not generate sufficient treatments, then we may remove the laser from the physician's office and redeploy it elsewhere. XTRAC lasers placed in service are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five-years. For other property and equipment depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, primarily three to seven years for computer hardware and software, furniture and fixtures, automobiles and machinery and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful lives or lease terms. Useful lives are determined based upon an estimate of either physical or economic obsolescence, or both.
- 32 -

Goodwill and Intangibles Assets. Our balance sheet includes goodwill and other intangible assets which affect the amount of future period amortization expense and possible impairment expense that we will incur. Management's judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators, on an interim or annual basis, are based on various factors, including market conditions and operational performance of our business. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we had $22,215 and $24,155 of goodwill and other intangibles, accounting for 51.4% and 47.0% of our total assets, respectively. The goodwill is not amortizable; the other intangibles are. The determination of the value of such intangible assets requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our consolidated financial statements. We test our goodwill for impairment at least annually. The acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses that gave rise to the recorded goodwill closed on June 22, 2015. This test is conducted in December of each year in connection with the annual budgeting and forecast process. Also, on a quarterly basis, we evaluate whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that would negatively impact the realizable value of our intangibles or goodwill.
We organized our business into three operating units and are defined as Dermatology Recurring Procedures, Dermatology Procedures Equipment and Dermatology Imaging. The balance of our goodwill for each of our segments as of December 31, 2016 is as follows: Dermatology Recurring Procedures $7,958, Dermatology Procedures Equipment $845 and Dermatology Imaging $0. We completed our annual goodwill impairment analysis as of December 31, 2016 for our reporting units. Our assessment concluded that there was not any impairment of goodwill. Our analysis employed the use of both a market and income approach, with each method given equal weighting. Significant assumptions used in the income approach include growth and discount rates, margins and our weighted average cost of capital. We used historical performance and management estimates of future performance to determine margins and growth rates. Discount rates selected for each reporting unit varied. Our weighted average cost of capital included a review and assessment of market and capital structure assumptions. Of the two reporting units with goodwill, Dermatology Recurring Procedures has a fair value that is in excess of its carrying value by approximately 16.7%, while Dermatology Procedures Equipment has a fair value that is approximately 48.8% in excess of its carrying value. Considerable management judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating changes and to estimate future cash flows. Changes in our actual results and/or estimates or any of our other assumptions used in our analysis could result in a different conclusion.
Income taxes. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process requires us to estimate our actual current tax exposure and make an assessment of temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent we believe that recovery is more likely than not, we establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in a period, we must include an expense within the tax provision in the consolidated statement of operations. Significant management judgment is required in determining our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. In the event that we generate taxable income in the jurisdictions in which we operate and in which we has net operating loss carry-forwards, we may be required to adjust our valuation allowance.
ASC Topic 740-10 requires that we recognize in our financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position will more likely than not be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position, without regard the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. If an uncertain tax position meets the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be recognized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority is recorded. We do not have any unrecognized tax benefits or accrued penalties and interest. If such matters were to arise, we would recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
- 33 -

Stock-based compensation. We account for stock based compensation to employees in accordance with "Share-Based Payment" accounting standard. The standard requires estimating the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in our consolidated statement of operations.
The fair value of employee stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes valuation model. Compensation costs are recorded using the graded vesting attribution method over the vesting period, net of estimated forfeitures. The total share-based compensation expense was $113 and $1,753 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Fair Value Measurements. We measure fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board 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. 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. Our derivative financial instruments are considered to be significant unobservable inputs (level 3).
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:

|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Dermatology Recurring Procedures |  | $ | 24,558 |  |  | $ | 14,616 |
Dermatology Procedures Equipment |  |  | 7,065 |  |  |  | 3,591 |
Dermatology Imaging |  |  | 134 |  |  |  | 288 |
Total Revenues |  | $ | 31,757 |  |  | $ | 18,495 |

We completed the asset purchase of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses on June 22, 2015 and as such, for the 2015 period, revenues were included only for the period of June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015.
Dermatology Recurring Procedures
Recognized treatment revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $24,558 which approximates 351,000 treatments, with prices from $65 to $95 per treatment. Recognized treatment revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $14,616 which approximates 194,000 treatments, with prices from $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
- 34 -

including television and radio; and through our use of social media such as FaceBook and Twitter. We continue to increase 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. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we deferred net revenues of $91 and $20, respectively, under this approach.
Dermatology Procedures Equipment
For the year ended December 31, 2016 dermatology equipment revenues were $7,065. Internationally, we sold 88 systems for the year ended December 31, 2016, 27 of which were VTRAC systems. Domestically, we sold 3 systems for the year ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2015 dermatology equipment revenues were $3,591. Internationally, we sold 52 systems for the year ended December 31, 2015, 31 of which were VTRAC systems.
Dermatology Imaging
For the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, imaging revenues were $134 and $288, respectively. Imaging revenues are generated from the MelaFind systems, through direct capital equipment sales and through a leasing model. Under the leasing model, there is an upfront installation fee and a monthly usage fee based on the number of lesions examined.
Cost of Revenues
The following table illustrates cost of revenues from our three business segments for the periods listed below:

|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Dermatology Recurring Procedures |  | $ | 8,763 |  |  | $ | 4,680 |
Dermatology Procedures Equipment |  |  | 3,506 |  |  |  | 1,989 |
Dermatology Imaging |  |  | 367 |  |  |  | 7,050 |
Total Cost of Revenues |  | $ | 12,636 |  |  | $ | 13,719 |

As we completed the asset purchase of XTRAC and VTRAC businesses on June 22, 2015, cost of revenues for 2015, related to this business, was included from June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015.
Cost of revenues have decreased to $12,636 for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $13,719 for the year ended December 31, 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2015 we initiated plans to develop an updated version of the MelaFind system and, accordingly, determined that a majority of our existing inventory of MelaFind systems and related parts exceeded our requirements. As a result, we wrote-off the excess and obsolete inventory on our MelaFind systems and related components and incurred a charge of $4,818. We also had an impairment charge of $920 of property and equipment related to the MelaFind systems. Offsetting these expenses for the 2015 periods, were the XTRAC and VTRAC expenses that were included only from June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015 compared to the entire period presented for 2016.

Gross Profit Analysis
Gross profit increased to $19,121 for the year ended December 31, 2016 from $4,776 during the same period in 2015. As a percentage of revenues, the gross margin was 60.2% for the year ended December 31, 2016 from 25.8% during the same period in 2015.
The following tables analyze changes in our gross margin, by segment, for the periods presented below:

Company Profit Analysis |  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Revenues |  | $ | 31,757 |  |  | $ | 18,495 |

Gross profit |  | $ | 19,121 |  |  | $ | 4,776 |
Gross margin percentage |  |  | 60.2 | % |  |  | 25.8 | %

Dermatology Recurring Procedures |  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Revenues |  | $ | 24,558 |  |  | $ | 14,616 |
Percent increase |  |  | 68.0 | % |  |  |  |
Cost of revenues |  |  | 8,763 |  |  |  | 4,680 |
Percent increase |  |  | 87.2 | % |  |  |  |
Gross profit |  | $ | 15,795 |  |  | $ | 9,936 |
Gross margin percentage |  |  | 64.3 | % |  |  | 68.0 | %

The primary reason for the change in gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015, was the acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses on June 22, 2015. The gross profit related to these businesses for the 2015 period was included from June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015 and was allocated to the two Dermatology Procedures segments. 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.

Dermatology Procedures Equipment |  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Revenues |  | $ | 7,065 |  |  | $ | 3,591 |
Percent increase |  |  | 96.7 | % |  |  |  |
Cost of revenues |  |  | 3,506 |  |  |  | 1,989 |
Percent increase |  |  | 76.3 | % |  |  |  |
Gross profit |  | $ | 3,559 |  |  | $ | 1,602 |
Gross margin percentage |  |  | 50.4 | % |  |  | 44.6 | %

The primary reason for the change in gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015, was the acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses on June 22, 2015. The gross profit related to these businesses for the 2015 periods was included from June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015 and was allocated to the two Dermatology Procedures segments. The gross margin change is affected by the mix of products sold in each year.

Gross profit |  | $ | (233 | ) |  | $ | (6,762 | )
Gross margin percentage |  |  | (173.9 | %) |  |  | (2,347.9 | %)

The primary reason for the change in gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to the same period in 2015, was during the year ended December 31, 2015 we had initiated plans to develop an updated version of the MelaFind system and, accordingly, determined that a majority of our existing inventory of MelaFind systems and related parts exceeded our requirements. As a result, we wrote-off the excess and obsolete inventory on our MelaFind systems and related components and incurred a charge of $4,818. We also had an impairment charge of $920 of property and equipment related to the MelaFind systems.
Engineering and Product Development
Engineering and product development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2016 remained consistent at $1,929 from $2,029 for the year ended December 31, 2015. As the XTRAC and VTRAC acquisition was completed on June 22, 2015, the expenses were included only from June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015. Ongoing research and development efforts for the MelaFind technology on product enhancements have been ended.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2016, selling and marketing expenses increased to $13,152 from $9,194 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The increase was related to the inclusion of sales and marketing expenses related to the acquired XTRAC and VTRAC businesses of $12,966 for the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to $7,323 for the year ended December 31, 2015. As the XTRAC and VTRAC acquisition was completed on June 22, 2015, the expenses were included only from June 23, 2015 through December 31, 2015. Offsetting some of the increases, were decreases in the MelaFind Division primarily related to salary and headcount decreases and overall impact of cost reduction initiatives.
General and Administrative Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2016, general and administrative expenses decreased to $7,637 from $10,028 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The changes were due to the following reasons:

| • | In the year ended December 31, 2015, we recorded $827 in stock-based compensation expense related to the special option issuance to certain board directors.
| • | In the year ended December 31, 2015, we recorded $456 in acquisition costs related to the asset purchase.
| • | Additionally, there were decreases in the MelaFind Division primarily related to salary and headcount decreases and overall impact of cost reduction initiatives.

Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $4,900 compared to $10,200 in the year ended December 31, 2015. Interest expense during the periods of 2016 and 2015 relate to the 4% senior convertible debentures issued in July 2014, which included amortization of the related debt discount and deferred financing fees. The periods also include interest expense related to the 2.25% senior convertible debentures issued on June 22, 2015. The 2015 periods included interest and related amortization of debt discount on the June 22, 2015 short-term senior notes. Additionally, approximately $217 of interest expense was recognized as a result of the conversion of $265 of debentures into common stock during the year ended December 31, 2016. Approximately $3,601 of interest expense was recognized as a result of the conversion of $4,815 of debentures into common stock during the year ended December 31, 2015.
Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability
In accordance with FASB ASC 470, "Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options" ("ASC Topic 470") and FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC Topic 820"), we measured the fair value of our warrants that were recorded at their fair value and recognized as liabilities as of December 31, 2016, and recorded $5,396 in other income for the year ended December 31, 2016. We measured the fair value of these warrants as of December 31, 2015, and recorded $1,814 in other income for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $21 compared to $33, for the year ended December 31, 2015. Other income mainly represents royalty income we earn each quarter from Kavo Dental GmbH on the licensing of certain technology patents.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $255 compared to $119 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The expense is comprised 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.
Net Loss
The factors described above resulted in net loss of $3,335 during the year ended December 31, 2016, as compared to a net loss of $24,947 during the year ended December 31, 2015.
Deemed Dividend
As approved by the stockholders on September 30, 2015, we modified the terms of warrants, held by the investors that participated in the June 2015 Debentures in excess of $5 million, which included reducing the exercise price of such warrants to $0.75 and adding down-round price protection provisions. These warrants had previously been classified and recorded in stockholders' equity. As a result of the modification these warrants now meet the definition of a derivative. As a result of the modification, we recorded a deemed dividend related to these warrants of $2,962, which was determined as the difference between the fair value of these warrants immediately before the modification and immediately after. The binomial method was used to value the warrants.

Non-GAAP adjusted income (loss)
As a result of our acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC products, we have determined to supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, presented elsewhere within this report, we will provide certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP adjusted income.
We consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to our results prepared under current accounting standards, but they are not a substitute for, nor superior to, GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance readers' overall understanding of our current financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes.
Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook. In addition, we believe non-GAAP measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods. Reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures included in this report is as follows:

|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | Change |

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2016, we had $4,619 of working capital compared to $4,900 as of December 31, 2015. Cash and cash equivalents were $3,928 as of December 31, 2016, as compared to $3,318, including restricted cash of $15, as of December 31, 2015.
In June 2015, we raised additional gross proceeds of approximately $42,500 through the issuance of $32,500 of 2.25% senior secured convertible debentures due June 2020, $10,000 of Senior secured notes and warrants to purchase common stock. The debentures are convertible at any time into an aggregate of approximately 43.3 million shares of our common stock at a price of $0.75 per share. Our obligations under the debentures are secured by a subordinated first priority lien on all of our assets. During 2016 and 2015, $265 and $222 of debentures were converted into common stock, respectively.
- 39 -

On December 30, 2015, we 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. Our obligations under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on all of our assets. Other financing documents included subordination agreements and other amendments with our existing debenture holders from its 2014 and 2015 financings.
Until 2016, we had experienced recurring losses and negative cash flow from operations since inception. Historically, we have been dependent on raising capital from the sale of securities in order to continue to operate and to meet our obligations in the ordinary course of business. We believe that our cash as of December 31, 2016 combined with the anticipated revenues from the sale of our products will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital needs, capital asset purchases, outstanding commitments and other liquidity requirements associated with our existing operating through the next twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-K.
On October 25, 2016, we were notified by NASDAQ that NASDAQ had granted us an extension of the deadline to April 24, 2017 to demonstrate compliance with NASDAQ's continued listing requirements. We will continue to monitor the closing bid price for our common stock and to assess our options for maintaining the listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market in light of the Notice. Failure to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market would lead to an event of default under the debentures issued in our 2015 financing. Also, if delisting were to occur, selling our common stock could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, transactions could be delayed, and security analysts' coverage of us may be reduced. Furthermore, while we believe that our common stock would trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, we would lose various advantages attendant to listing on a national securities exchange, including but not limited to, eligibility to register the sale or resale of our shares on Form S-3 and the automatic exemption from registration under state securities laws for exchange-listed securities, which could have a negative effect on our ability to raise funds. Additionally it would be deemed a default under the 2015 debentures and a breach of our affirmative covenants and therefore an event of default under our financing documents with Midcap. If there is an event of default, the 2015 debentures and the term note could be due immediately and would be classified as a current liability.
As one approach to curing the listing deficiency, we have asked the Shareholders to approve a reverse stock-split of up to 1 for 10 of our common stock. We have scheduled the meeting for March 29, 2017 and we cannot assure you that we will have the necessary quorum to hold a vote on the proposal, or that if we do have a quorum that there will be a majority of shares cast in favor of authorizing the company to effect a reverse split.
Net cash and cash equivalents provided by operating activities was $322 for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to cash used in operating activities of $6,570 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The primary reasons for the change was the cash from operations generated by the XTRAC and VTRAC business, which was acquired on June 22, 2015, and a continued effort to reduce expenses.
Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was $868 for the year December 31, 2016 compared to cash used in investing activities of $44,239 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The primary reason for the change was the asset purchase of the XTRAC and VTRAC business during year ended December 31, 2015.
Net cash and cash equivalents provided by financing activities was $1,167 for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $42,670 for the year ended December 31, 2015. In the year ended December 31, 2016, we drew down $1,500 on a long-term debt facility. In the year ended December 31, 2015, we completed a financing consisting of Senior secured notes amounting to $10,000 and senior secured convertible debentures of $32,500; repaid the Senior secured notes of $10,000 and drew down $10,500 on a long-term debt facility.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At December 31, 2016, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Impact of Inflation
We have not operated in a highly inflationary period, and we do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our revenues or expenses.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Our exposure to market risk is confined to our cash and cash equivalents. We invest in high-quality financial instruments, primarily money market funds, with the average effective duration of the portfolio within one year which we believe are subject to limited credit risk. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk arising from our investments. We are exposed to credit risks in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of investments in excess of FDIC insured limits. We perform periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions and limit the amount of credit exposure with any institution.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
The financial statements required by this Item 8 are included in this Report and begin on page F-1.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")), as of December 31, 2016. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level described below.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, our management has determined that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016.
Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud.
The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no change in our internal control over financial reporting in our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
None.

Our Board of Directors administers its risk oversight function as a whole by making risk oversight a matter of collective consideration. While management is responsible for identifying risks, our Board of Directors has charged the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors with evaluating financial and accounting risk, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors with evaluating risks associated with employees and compensation. Investor-related risks are usually addressed by the Board as a whole.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS*
The audit committee oversees the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the audit committee reviewed the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 with management, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.
The audit committee is responsible for reviewing, approving and managing the engagement of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, including the scope, extent and procedures of the annual audit and compensation to be paid therefore, and all other matters the audit committee deems appropriate, including the Company's independent registered public accounting firm's accountability to the Board of Directors and the audit committee. The audit committee reviewed with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, which is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, its judgment as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company's accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the audit committee by the Standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"), including PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications With Audit Committees, the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and other applicable regulations, and discussed and reviewed the results of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm's examination of the financial statements. In addition, the audit committee discussed with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm's independence from management and the Company, including the matters in the written disclosures and the letter regarding its independence by Rule 3526 of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm's communications with the audit committee concerning independence. The audit committee also considered whether the provision of non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm's independence.
The audit committee discussed with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for its audits, and received from them written disclosures and letter regarding their independence. The audit committee meets with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of its examinations, its evaluations of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting. The audit committee held four meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
- 49 -

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Directors (and the Board of Directors has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for filing with the Commission. The audit committee has also retained EisnerAmper LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, Director Independence
Related Person Transactions
On June 22, 2015, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Purchasers, including certain funds managed by Sabby Management, LLC and Broadfin Capital LLC, in connection with a private placement. We sold $10.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes bearing interest at 9% per year, with a maturity date of the earlier of 30 days after we obtain stockholder approval of stock issuances under the Debentures and the Warrants or November 30, 2015. The Purchasers of the Notes were issued Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3.0 million shares of common stock, having an exercise price of $0.75 per share. We also issued $32.5 million aggregate principal amount of Debentures that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, will be convertible into 43,333,334 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.75 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. Our obligations under the Debt Securities are secured by a first priority lien on all of our assets, except for a second lien on our intellectual property. As a condition of the new term note facility, 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. Effective upon the date the Stockholder Approval, on September 30, 2015, we repriced outstanding Warrants held by certain investors to reduce the exercise price to $0.75 per share.
In connection with this financing, we 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 us 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.

Director Independence
As required under the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, or NASDAQ, listing standards, a majority of the members of a listed company's board of directors must qualify as "independent," as affirmatively determined by the board of directors. Our board of directors consults with internal counsel to ensure that the board's determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of "independent," including those set forth in pertinent NASDAQ listing standards, as in effect from time to time. Consistent with these considerations, after review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and our company, our senior management and our independent registered public accounting firm, the board of directors has affirmatively determined that in 2016 that, except for Mr. McCaney, who is our Chief Executive Officer, as well as Mr. O'Donnell and Mr. Navarro, who receive consulting fees all other current members of the Board of Directors are independent under the revised listing standards of NASDAQ.
Director Consulting Agreements
On November 4, 2015, we entered into consulting agreements with two of our 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 provide strategic support, advice and guidance to us and our management team in connection with the integration and operation of our expanded business, investor relations and internal and external business development activities. The consultant will make himself available to our President and Chief Executive Officer and our management team on request at mutually convenient times and will report to our Board of Directors quarterly and otherwise when requested by the Board. The initial term of the agreement was from November 4, 2015 through June 30, 2016. The term of the agreement was extended through June 30, 2017. The directors were each paid an up-front fee of $40,000 for advice and services rendered prior to the date of the agreement, a retainer of $10,000 per month, commencing November 10, 2015 and continuing on the tenth day of each month through the expiration of the agreement, and reimbursement of pre-approved, out-of-pocket expenses.

Engagement of the Independent Auditor. The Audit Committee is responsible for approving every engagement of EisnerAmper LLP to perform audit or non-audit services for us before EisnerAmper LLP is engaged to provide those services. Under applicable Commission rules, the Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditors in order to ensure that they do not impair the auditors' independence. The Commission's rules specify the types of non-audit services that an independent auditor may not provide to its audit client and establish the Audit Committee's responsibility for administration of the engagement of the independent auditors.
Consistent with the Commission's rules, the Audit Committee Charter requires that the Audit Committee review and pre-approve all audit services and permitted non-audit services provided by the independent auditors to us or any of our subsidiaries. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to a member of the Audit Committee and if it does, the decisions of that member must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
The Audit Committee's pre-approval policy provides as follows:
· First, once a year when the base audit engagement is reviewed and approved, management will identify all other services (including fee ranges) for which management knows it will engage EisnerAmper LLP for the next 12 months. Those services typically include quarterly reviews, specified tax matters, certifications to the lenders as required by financing documents, consultation on new accounting and disclosure standards and, in future years, reporting on management's internal controls assessment.
· Second, if any new "unlisted" proposed engagement arises during the year, the engagement will require approval of the Audit Committee.
All fees to our independent accounting firms were approved by the Audit Committee.
Auditor Selection for Fiscal 2017 The Audit Committee has selected EisnerAmper LLP to serve as our independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2017. The Committee's selection will be submitted to our stockholders for ratification at our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc., and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1
The Company:
Background
STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (and its subsidiary) ("STRATA" or "we" or the "Company") is a medical technology company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative products for the diagnosis and treatment of serious dermatological disorders. In June 2015 the Company completed the acquisition of the XTRAC Excimer Laser and the VTRAC Excimer Lamp businesses which included a subsidiary in India. The XTRAC® and VTRAC® products are FDA cleared devices for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin disorders. The purchase price was $42,500 plus the assumption of certain business-related liabilities. (See Note 2, Acquisition.)
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 December 31, 2016, there were 775 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.
Liquidity
As of December 31, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $210,575, and until 2016, had incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. To date, the Company has dedicated most of its financial resources to research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.
The Company has been dependent on raising capital from the sale of securities in order to continue to operate and to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that its cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016 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 and other liquidity requirements associated with its existing operations through the next twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-K.
On October 25, 2016, we were notified by NASDAQ that NASDAQ had granted us an extension of the deadline to April 24, 2017 to demonstrate compliance with NASDAQ's continued listing requirements. We will continue to monitor the closing bid price for our common stock and to assess our options for maintaining the listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market in light of the Notice. Failure to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market would lead to an event of default under the debentures issued in our 2015 financing. Also, if delisting were to occur, selling our common stock could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, transactions could be delayed, and security analysts' coverage of us may be reduced. Furthermore, while we believe that our common stock would trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, we would lose various advantages attendant to listing on a national securities exchange, including but not limited to, eligibility to register the sale or resale of our shares on Form S-3 and the automatic exemption from registration under state securities laws for exchange-listed securities, which could have a negative effect on our ability to raise funds. Additionally it would be deemed a default under the 2015 debentures and a breach of our affirmative covenants and therefore an event of default under our financing documents with Midcap. If there is an event of default, the 2015 debentures and the term note could be due immediately and would be classified as a current liability.
As one approach to curing the listing deficiency, we have asked the Shareholders to approve a reverse stock-split of up to 1 for 10 of our common stock. We have scheduled the meeting for March 29, 2017 and we cannot assure you that we will have the necessary quorum to hold a vote on the proposal, or that if we do have a quorum that there will be a majority of shares cast in favor of authorizing the company to effect a reverse split.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications from the prior year presentation have been made to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not have material impact on the Company's equity, net assets, results of operations or cash flows.
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 December 31, 2016, the more significant estimates include (1) revenue recognition, in regards to deferred revenues and valuation allowances of accounts receivable, (2) the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination, (3) the estimated useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, (4) the inputs used in determining the fair value of equity-based awards, (5) the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets and (6) the fair value of financial instruments, including derivative instruments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues from product sales when the following four criteria have been met: (i) the product has been delivered and the Company has no significant remaining obligations; (ii) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (iii) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. Revenues from product sales are recorded net of provisions for expected returns and cash discounts.
The Company ships most of its products FOB shipping point, although from time to time certain customers, for example governmental customers, will be granted FOB destination terms. Among the factors the Company takes into account when determining the proper time at which to recognize revenue are (i) when title to the goods transfers and (ii) when the risk of loss transfers. Shipments to distributors or physicians that do not fully satisfy the collection criteria are recognized when invoiced amounts are fully paid or fully assured and included in deferred revenues until that time.
For revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables within a single, contractually binding arrangement (usually sales of products with separately priced extended warranty), each element of the contract is accounted for as a separate unit of accounting when it provides the customer value on a stand-alone basis and there is objective evidence of the fair value of the related unit.
The Company has two distribution channels for its phototherapy treatment equipment. The Company either (i) places its lasers in a physician's office (at no charge to the physician), and generally charges the physician a fee for an agreed upon number of treatments or (ii) sells its lasers through a distributor or directly to a physician. In some cases, the Company and the customer stipulate to a quarterly or other periodic target of procedures to be performed, and accordingly revenue is recognized ratably over the period.
When the Company places a laser in a physician's office, it generally recognizes revenue based on the number of patient treatments performed, or purchased under a periodic commitment, by the physician. Amounts collected with respect to treatments to be performed through laser-access codes that are sold to physicians free of a periodic commitment, but not yet used, are deferred and recognized as a liability until the physician performs the treatment. Unused treatments remain an obligation of the Company because the treatments can only be performed on Company-owned equipment. Once the treatments are performed, this obligation has been satisfied.

STRATA SKIN SCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of lasers)
The Company defers substantially all revenue from sales of treatment codes ordered by its customers within the last two weeks of the period in determining the amount of procedures performed by its physician-customers. Management believes this approach closely approximates the actual amount of unused treatments that existed at the end of a period.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company invests its excess cash in highly liquid short-term investments. The Company considers short-term investments that are purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash and money market accounts at December 31, 2016 and 2015.
Accounts Receivable
The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from physicians, distributors (international) and other entities in the medical field. Accounts receivable are most often due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company's previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company and available information about their credit risk, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are considered uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the bad debt expense. The Company does not recognize interest accruing on accounts receivable past due. The allowance for doubtful accounts were $135 and $45 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined to be purchased cost for raw materials and the production cost (materials, labor and indirect manufacturing cost, including sub-contracted work components) for work-in-process and finished goods. For the Company's products, cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method. Throughout the laser manufacturing process, the related production costs are recorded within inventory. Work-in-process is immaterial, given the typically short manufacturing cycle, and therefore is disclosed in conjunction with raw materials.
The Company's equipment for the treatment of skin disorders (e.g. the XTRAC) will either (i) be placed in a physician's office and remain the property of the Company (at which date such equipment is transferred to property and equipment) or (ii) be sold to distributors or physicians directly. The cost to build a laser, whether for sale or for placement, is accumulated in inventory.
Reserves for slow moving and obsolete inventories are provided based on historical experience and product demand. Management evaluates the adequacy of these reserves periodically based on forecasted sales and market trends. As of December 31, 2016 reserves on inventory were $257. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a write-down of $4,818 toward the remaining inventory value of the MelaFind® systems, raw materials and components. (See Note 3, Inventories.)
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Excimer lasers-in-service are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years. For other property and equipment, depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, primarily three to seven years for computer hardware and software, furniture and fixtures, and machinery and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful lives or lease terms. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged as an expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposition, the applicable property amounts are deducted from the accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Useful lives are determined based upon an estimate of either physical or economic obsolescence or both.
F- 10

STRATA SKIN SCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of lasers)
Management evaluates the realizability of property and equipment based on estimates of undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the asset. If the amount of such estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the net book value of the asset, the asset is written down to fair value. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a write-down of $920 on the remaining net book value of the MelaFind systems that were part of property and equipment (see Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles).
Patent Costs and Licensed Technologies
Costs incurred to obtain or defend patents and licensed technologies are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the remaining estimated useful lives or eight to 12 years. Core technology and product technology were recorded in connection with the asset purchase on June 22, 2015 and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years for core technology and five years for product technology. (See Note 5, Patent and Licensed Technologies).
Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets were recorded in connection with the asset purchase on June 22, 2015. The assets that were determined to have definite useful lives are being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. Such assets primarily include customer relationships and trademarks. (See Note 7, Other Intangible Assets).
Accounting for the Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill annually in December of each year in connection with the annual budgeting and forecast process and also between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit to which goodwill was allocated to below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating goodwill for impairment, we may first perform an assessment qualitatively whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, referred to as a "step zero" approach. If, based on the review of the qualitative factors, we determine it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we would bypass the two-step impairment test. If we conclude that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount, we would perform the first step ("step one") of the two-step impairment test. Step 1 compares the fair value of the Group's reporting units to which goodwill was allocated to their carrying values. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, no further analysis is necessary. The reporting unit fair value is based upon consideration of various valuation methodologies, including guideline transaction multiples, multiples of current earnings, and projected future cash flows discounted at rates commensurate with the risk involved. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, Step 2 must be completed to quantify the amount of impairment. Step 2 calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit, from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in Step 1. The implied fair value of goodwill determined in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss, equal to the difference, is recognized. There was no impairment of goodwill as of December 31, 2016.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and definite-lived intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted cash flows attributable to the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value of the asset. During the year December 31, 2015 the Company recorded a write-down of $920 on the remaining net book value of the MelaFind systems that were part of property and equipment. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as discontinued operations are presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet. There were no impairments recorded as of December 31, 2016 related to any of the Company's intangible assets.

Functional Currency
The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company are conducted is the US dollar ("$" or "dollars"). Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived in dollars or in other currencies linked to the dollar. Purchases of most materials and components are carried out in, or linked to the dollar.
For foreign currency transactions included in the statement of comprehensive loss, the exchange rates applicable to the relevant transaction dates are used. Transaction gains or losses arising from changes in the exchange rates used in the transaction of such balances are carried to financing income or expenses.
Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary, whose functional currency is its local currency are translated from its functional currency to U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date exchange rate. Income and expense items are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
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:

| • | Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
| • | Level 2 – pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.
| • | Level 3 – pricing inputs are unobservable for the non-financial asset or liability and only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the non-financial asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Fair value is determined using comparable market transactions and other valuation methodologies, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors

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 December 31, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

|  | Fair Value as of December 31, 2016 |  |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) |  |  | Significant other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Warrant liability (Note 12) |  | $ | 105 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 105 |

|  | Fair Value as of December 31, 2015 |  |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) |  |  | Significant other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Warrant liability (Note 12) |  | $ | 7,042 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 7,042 |

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of lasers)
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 and determined that the fair value of total debt was $20,082 as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2015 the fair value of total debt approximated the recorded value of $15,958.
Several of the warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2016 ad 2015 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 12, Warrants, for additional discussion.
Accrued Warranty Costs
The Company offers a standard warranty on product sales generally for a one to two-year period, however, the Company has offered longer warranty periods, ranging from three to four years, in order to meet competition or meet customer demands. The Company provides for the estimated cost of the future warranty claims on the date the product is sold. Total accrued warranty is included in Other Accrued Liabilities and Other liabilities on the balance sheet. The activity in the warranty accrual during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is summarized as follows:

|  | December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Accrual at beginning of year |  | $ | 226 |  |  | $ | 48 |
Acquired in asset purchase |  |  | - |  |  |  | 265 |
Additions charged to warranty expense |  |  | 196 |  |  |  | 98 |

Total |  |  | 115 |  |  |  | 226 |
Less: current portion |  |  | (102 | ) |  |  | (168 | )
|  | $ | 13 |  |  | $ | 58 |

Product Development Costs
Costs of research, new product development and product redesign are charged to expense as incurred in engineering and product development.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to expenses as incurred. Advertising expenses amounted to approximately $4,389 and $2,500 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. Any resulting net deferred tax assets are evaluated for recoverability and, accordingly, a valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
F- 13

STRATA SKIN SCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of lasers)
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with an amendment to ASC Topic 740-10, Income Taxes (Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes), which clarified the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This amendment provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained were it to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the technical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. If an uncertain tax position meets the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be recognized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority is recorded.
Concentration of credit risks
Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The carrying amounts of these instruments approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company deposits cash and cash equivalents in major financial institutions in the US. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these institutions. The Company is of the opinion that the credit risk in respect of these balances is immaterial. In addition, the Company performs an ongoing credit evaluation and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers (see also Accounts receivable above).
With the exception of the Company's international distributor, as described in Note 18, Significant Customer Concentrations, the balance of the Company's trade receivables do not represent a substantial concentration of credit risk. Most of the Company's sales are generated in North America, to a large number of customers. Management periodically evaluates the collectability of the trade receivables to determine the amounts that are doubtful of collection and determine a proper allowance for doubtful accounts.
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 year ended December 31, 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 year ended December 31, 2016:

|  | Year Ended December 31, 2016 |
Net loss |  | $ | (3,335 | )
Gain on the change in fair value of the warrant liability |  |  | (5,396 | )
Diluted loss |  | $ | (8,731 | )
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding: |  |  |  |
Basic number of common shares outstanding |  |  | 10,595,068 |
Dilutive effect of warrants |  |  | 983,505 |
Diluted number of common and common stock equivalent shares outstanding |  |  | 11,578,573 |

For the year ended December 31, 2015, diluted net loss per common share is equal to the basic net loss per common share since all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive.

Potential common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 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:

|  |  | December 31,
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015
Common stock equivalents of convertible debentures |  | 46,105,715 |  |  | 46,435,127

Total |  | 64,981,515 |  |  | 68,384,707

The convertible debenture shares, warrant shares (except for those related to the gain) and option shares were excluded due to their effect are anti-dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under the fair value recognition provision of this statement, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award that is ultimately expected to vest and is recognized as operating expense over the applicable service period of the stock award using the graded vesting method.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs" (Subtopic 835-30). ASU No. 2015-03 provides guidance that will require debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, in the same manner as debt discounts, rather than as an asset. The standard was effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2016. (See Note 9, Convertible Debt.)
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments." The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to estimated amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined, rather than retrospectively adjusting amounts previously reported. The amendments require that the acquirer record, in the same period's financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the estimated amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. Effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). ASU 2014-15 provides guidance on management's responsibility in evaluating whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). ASU 2014-15 also provides guidance related to the required disclosures as a result of management evaluation. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of the new guidance did not impact the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
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. Currently, tax deductions in excess of compensation costs (excess tax benefits) are recorded in equity and tax deduction shortfalls (tax deficiencies), to the extent of previous excess tax benefits, are recorded in equity and then to income tax expense. Under the new guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recorded to income tax expense in the income statement, which could create volatility in the Company's income statement. The new guidance will also change the classification of excess tax benefits in the cash flow statement and impact the diluted earnings per share calculation. The guidance will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. Different components of the guidance require prospective, retrospective and/or modified retrospective adoption. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures upon adoption.
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 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 full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, except the deferred tax liability related to goodwill amortization. As such, the Company does not expect that this standard will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures upon adoption.
In July 2015, The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 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. Inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) are not impacted by the new guidance. 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). Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures upon adoption.
In May 2014, The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). 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. Retrospectively 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. For a public entity, the amendments in ASU 2014-09 were to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. In July 2015, the FASB voted for a one year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09 and issued an exposure draft. The new guidance will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The Company is evaluating this standard and expect to have its analysis completed by mid-2017, however, preliminarily the Company does not expect that this new guidance will have a material impact on its revenue recognition.

Acquisition:
On June 22, 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with PhotoMedex Inc. and PhotoMedex Technology, Inc. pursuant to which the Company has purchased the XTRAC and VTRAC laser businesses from PhotoMedex, Inc. (the "Asset Purchase") for $42,528 in cash and assumed certain business-related liabilities. In June 2016, the Company received a return from the escrow account of $125 of the purchase price related to the assets in the purchased Indian subsidiary. The purchased assets include all of the accounts receivable, inventory and fixed and intangible assets of the business.
The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on management estimates. The significant intangible assets to be recognized in the valuation are core and product technologies, tradenames and customer relationships. The estimated useful lives over which these assets will be amortized, utilizing the straight line method, are five years for product technologies and ten years for core technologies, tradenames and customer relationships. The Company estimated fair value of the intangibles and lasers placed in service was based on the income approach which estimated cash flow that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends and specific market and economic conditions. The fair value of the Company's remaining fixed assets was estimated based on the cost approach which estimated the cost to replace.

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

|  | December 31, 2016 |  |  | December 31, 2015 |
Senior secured 2.25% convertible debentures, net of unamortized debt discount of $24,314 and $26,267, respectively; and deferred financing costs of $524 and $522, respectively |  | $ | 7,174 |  |  | $ | 5,489 |
Senior secured 4% convertible debentures, net of unamortized debt discount of $3,469 and $3,922, respectively; and deferred financing costs of $392 and $443, respectively |  |  | 4,854 |  |  |  | 4,350 |
Total convertible debt |  | $ | 12,028 |  |  | $ | 9,839 |

The Company issued $32,500 aggregate principal amount of Debentures (June 2015 Debentures) that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, will be convertible into 43,333,334 shares of Company common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.75 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. If the Company cannot maintain its listing on Nasdaq, it would be deemed a default under the 2015 debentures.
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 $0.75 from $1.38, 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 6,198,832 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $2.45 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 5,847,955 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $2.565 per share. 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 12, Warrants) and Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants. Proceeds from the Debentures were used for general working capital purposes.
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 year ended December 31, 2016, the investors converted June 2015 debentures amounting to $265 into 354,411 shares of common stock. The debt discount and deferred financing cost adjustment resulting from the conversions increased interest expense by $217 for the year ended December 31, 2016.
As a condition of the new note facility (See Note 10, Long-term Debt below) 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. The Company evaluated the modifications to determine if there was an extinguishment of debt. Based on the valuation, the discounted cash flows did not change by more than 10%, thus they were treated as a modification.
As of December 31, 2016, the total outstanding amount of Debentures was $40,727.

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. On August 8, 2016, the minimum net revenue covenant was amended prospectively. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2016. The payment term of the credit facility is 60 months, with first 18 months as interest only. The Interest rate on the credit facility is one month LIBOR plus 8.25%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.5%. 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. Additionally if the Company cannot maintain its listing on Nasdaq, it would be deemed a default under the 2015 debentures and a breach of our affirmative covenants and therefore an event of default under the financing documents with Midcap. Unamortized discount on the long term debt and deferred financing costs was $534 and $649 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 the net balance of long-term debt is $11,466.
The following table summarizes the future payments that the Company expects to make for long-term debt:

In connection with the issuance of the Term Note the Company issued MidCap (and the lenders), on December 30, 2015, a warrant to purchase 650,442 shares of the Company's common stock for an exercise price of $1.13. Additionally, the Company issued MidCap (and the lenders), on January 29, 2016, a warrant to purchase 99,057 shares of the Company's common stock for an exercise price of $1.06. The warrants are exercisable at any time on or prior to the fifth anniversary of its issue date. The warrants are treated as a discount to the debt and that discount is accreted under the effective interest method over the repayment term of 60 months. The Company has accounted for these warrants as equity instruments since there is no option for cash or net-cash settlement when the warrants are exercised and since they are indexed to the Company's common stock. The Company computed the value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes method.
The key assumptions used to value the warrants are as follows:

Warrants:
The Company accounts for warrants that have provisions that protect holders from a decline in the issue price of its common stock (or "down-round" provisions) and those that contain cash settlement provisions as liabilities instead of equity. Down-round provisions reduce the exercise or conversion price of a warrant or convertible instrument if a company either issues equity shares for a price that is lower than the exercise or conversion price of those instruments or issues new warrants or convertible instruments that have a lower exercise or conversion price. Net settlement provisions allow the holder of the warrant to surrender shares underlying the warrant equal to the exercise price as payment of its exercise price, instead of physically exercising the warrant by paying cash. The Company evaluated whether warrants to acquire its common stock contain provisions that protect holders from declines in the stock price or otherwise could result in modification of the exercise price and/or shares to be issued under the respective warrant agreements based on a variable that is not an input to the fair value of a "fixed-for-fixed" option. As of June 22, 2016, the down-round provision expired on 12,083,821 warrants and as such $1,541 of value associated with these warrants was reclassified to equity.

For those that do contain such provisions, the Company recognizes such warrants as liabilities at the fair value on each reporting date. The Company measured the fair value of these warrants as of December 31, 2015, and recorded other income of $1,814 resulting from the decrease of the liability associated with the fair value of the warrants for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Company computed the value of the warrants using the binomial method.

Stockholders' Equity:
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.10 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company's Board of Directors. There were 6,000 shares and 6,505 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding on December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
On February 5, 2014, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement, dated as of January 31, 2014, the Company sold an aggregate of 12,300 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock, par value $0.10 and a stated value of $1,000 per share convertible into 1,464,287 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $8.40, and warrants to purchase up to 1,329,731 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $11,458. The warrants have an exercise price of $7.40 per share, are immediately exercisable and have a term of five years. These warrants have non-standard terms as they relate to a fundamental transaction and require a net-cash settlement upon a change in control of the Company and therefore are classified as a derivative liability and recorded at fair value on the inception date of February 5, 2014 and at each subsequent balance sheet date.
In connection with this financing, the Company also granted resale registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the Series A preferred stock and the warrants pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement. The purchasers were entitled to receive liquidated damages upon the occurrence of a number of events relating to filing, effectiveness and maintaining an effective registration statement covering the shares underlying the Series A Preferred Stock and the warrants. The Company was unable to meet certain filing and effectiveness requirements and as a result paid liquidated damages to the Purchasers in the aggregate amount of $3,420 during the year ended December 31, 2014. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement on March 18, 2014, which was declared effective by the SEC on April 3, 2014.
On July 24, 2014, in connection with the July 2014 Debentures (see Note 9, Convertible Debentures), the Company exchanged 12,300 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock issued on February 5, 2014 with 12,300 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock at a stated value of $1,000 per share convertible into common stock at an initial price of $2.565 per share. The preferred stock is immediately convertible into an aggregate of 4,795,321 shares of common stock. Holders of the Series B convertible preferred stock are entitled to dividends only in the event that dividends are paid on the common stock, and the preferred stock has no preferences over the common stock. In connection with the exchange, the Company issued the July 2014 Series B warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,795,321 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.45 per share, expiring in January 2016. The July 2014 Series B warrants are immediately exercisable and are subject to certain ownership limitations.

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of lasers)
The $12,300 preferred stock value was allocated first to the fair value of the July 2014 Series B warrants, which totaled $2,487, then to the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of $1,887. The amount of the beneficial conversion feature was considered to be a deemed dividend on the date of issuance to the Series B preferred stockholders. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Series A convertible preferred stock was redeemed from the proceeds of the Series B convertible preferred stock. In September 2014, the Company amended the registration statement related to the Series A preferred stock to deregister those shares that would have been issuable upon conversion of the Series A preferred stock had it not already been redeemed by the proceeds of the Series B preferred stock.
During year ending December 31, 2016, 504.5 shares of Series B preferred stock were converted into 196,686 shares of common stock.
Common Stock and Warrants
The Company is authorized to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. There were 10,834,490 and 10,283,393 issued and outstanding at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
On October 29, 2013, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors in connection with a $6,000,000 registered offering of 422,819 shares of the Company's common stock, fully paid prefunded warrants (the "October 2013 Series B Warrants") to purchase up to 434,325 shares of its common stock and additional warrants ("October 2013 Series A Warrants") to purchase up to 685,715 shares of its common stock. The October 2013 Series A Warrants are exercisable beginning on May 1, 2014 at a price of $8.50 per share and expire on May 1, 2019. The October 2013 Series B Warrants were exercisable immediately for no additional consideration. The offering closed on October 31, 2013. The holders exercised all of the October 2013 Series B Warrants in March 2014.
The October 2013 Series A Warrants have non-standard terms as they relate to a fundamental transaction and require a net-cash settlement upon a change in control of the Company and therefore are classified as a derivative. Therefore, these warrants have been recorded at fair value at the inception date of October 31, 2013, and will be recorded at their respective fair values at each subsequent balance sheet date.
Outstanding common stock warrants consist of the following:

Issue Date | Expiration Date |  | Total Warrants |  |  | Exercise Price |
4/26/2013 | 4/26/2018 |  |  | 69,321 |  |  | $ | 11.18 |

As the share price as of December 31, 2016 was $0.44, the aggregate intrinsic value for options outstanding and exercisable was immaterial.
Stock awards under the Company's stock option plans have been granted with exercise prices that are no less than the market value of the stock on the date of the grant. Options granted under the plans are generally time-based or performance-based options and vesting varies accordingly. Options under the plans expire up to a maximum of ten years from the date of grant.

The fair value of each option award granted during the period is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and assumptions as noted in the following table:

| Years Ended December 31,
| 2016 |  | 2015
Risk-free interest rate | 1.51 – 2.18% |  | 1.80 - 1.90%
Volatility | 50.00% |  | 50.00 - 85.68%
Expected dividend yield | 0% |  | 0%
Expected life | 6.5 years |  | 6.5 years
Estimated forfeiture rate | 0% |  | 0%

The expected life of the options is based on the observed and expected time to full-vesting, forfeiture and exercise. Groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior are considered separately for valuation purposes. The risk-free rate is based on rates provided by the U.S. Treasury with a term equal to the expected life of the option. The Company has never paid dividends and does not currently anticipate paying any in the foreseeable future.
During December 2015 the Company changed its method of calculating expected volatility that is used in its fair value measurements and measurements of share based compensation cost. The new method estimates expected volatility by using a combination of the Company's historical volatility since June 22, 2015, the acquisition date of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses, plus the historical volatility of stocks of similar publicly-traded companies for a period matching the expected term of the underlying instrument. The Company believes that this method provides for a better estimate of future volatility because of the significant change to the overall Company resulting from the acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC businesses on June 22, 2015. The Company had historically calculated expected volatility based solely upon the historical volatility of the Company's daily closing stock price.
On December 6, 2016, the Company granted an aggregate of 450,000 options to purchase common stock to the non-employee board directors with a strike price of $0.55. The options vest over a one year period and expire ten years from the date of grant. The aggregate fair value of the options granted was $182.
On October 31, 2016, the Company issued 542,500 options to purchase common stock to its' Chief Executive Officer with a strike price of $0.55. The options vest over three years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The aggregate fair value of the options granted was $150. Additionally, the Company issued 1,007,500 options to purchase common stock to its' Chief Executive Officer with a strike price of $0.55. These options vest based on performance goals determined by the board of directors for each of the years 2017 through 2019.
On June 7, 2016, the Company granted an aggregate of 340,000 options to purchase common stock to a number of employees with a strike price of $0.75. The options vest over four years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The aggregate fair value of the options granted was $128.
Stock-based compensation expense, primarily included in general and administration, for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $113 and $1,753, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 there was $371 in unrecognized compensation expense, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.

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.
The Company provides for income taxes offset by changes in valuation allowances.
The difference between the actual income tax benefit and that computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate of 34% to pretax loss from continuing operations is summarized below:

|  | For the Years Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on the Company's historical net losses, management does not believe that it is more-likely-than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets and, accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against the deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company's valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets increased by $5,035 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and decreased by $3,571 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $183,727 and $163,837, respectively, to offset future taxable income. The Company has experienced certain ownership changes which, under the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, result in annual limitations on the Company's ability to utilize its net operating losses in the future. The February 2014, July 2014 and June 2015 equity raises by the Company, will likely limit the annual use of these net operating loss carryforwards.
FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes" contains guidance with respect to uncertain tax positions which applies to all tax positions and clarifies the recognition of tax benefits in the financial statements by providing for a two-step approach of recognition and measurement. The first step involves assessing whether the tax position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination based upon its technical merits. The second step involves measurement of the amount to recognize. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate finalization with the taxing authority.
The Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits or accrued penalties and interest. If such matters were to arise, the Company would recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The earliest open tax year subject to examination is 2011.

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 generates revenues from the sale and usage of imaging devices. Management reviews financial information presented on an operating segment basis for the purposes of making certain operating decisions and assessing financial performance.

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. We sold $10.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes bearing interest at 9% per year, with a maturity date of the earlier of 30 days after the Company obtains stockholder approval of stock issuances under the Debentures and the Warrants or November 30, 2015. The Purchasers of the Notes were issued Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3.0 million shares of common stock, having an exercise price of $0.75 per share. We also issued $32.5 million aggregate principal amount of Debentures that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, will be convertible into 43,333,334 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.75 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. Our obligations under the Debt Securities are secured by a first priority lien on all of our assets, except for a second lien on our intellectual property. As a condition of the new term note facility (See Note 10, 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. Effective upon the date the Stockholder Approval, on September 30, 2015, the Company repriced outstanding Warrants held by certain investors to reduce the exercise price to $0.75 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 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 initial term of the agreement was from November 4, 2015 through June 30, 2016. The agreements have been extended through June 30, 2017. The directors are each to be paid an up-front fee of $40,000 for advice and services rendered prior to the date of the agreement, a retainer of $10,000 per month, commencing November 10, 2015 and continuing on the tenth day of each month through June 10, 2016, and reimbursement of pre-approved, out-of-pocket expenses.
