Management Commentary

“With the sale of the XTRAC business on June 23, 2015 enabling the extinguishment of all our outstanding bank debt, we are now focused on addressing the challenges that have affected our consumer business and on implementing the strategies and tactics we believe will improve its performance. We are pleased to have held another successful 24-hour live television home shopping weekday sales event in the U.S. earlier this month, during which consumers purchased more than $3 million of retail sales of no!no! Hair™. This event highlighted the unique benefits of no!no! compared with other home hair removal treatments, and we offered a well-received summertime animal print special edition. This most recent television home shopping sales event builds upon similarly successful events held in May in the U.S. and in June in the UK,” said Dr. Dolev Rafaeli, PhotoMedex CEO.

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement PhotoMedex’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, PhotoMedex provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP adjusted income and non-GAAP adjusted income per share.

PhotoMedex’s reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared under current accounting standards, but are not a substitute for, nor superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of PhotoMedex’s current financial performance and to provide further information for comparative purposes.

Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results and business outlook. In addition, PhotoMedex believes 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 press release is as follows:
