PHOTOMEDEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
Note 1
Basis of Presentation:
 
The Company:
 
Background
PhotoMedex, Inc. (and its subsidiaries) (the “Company”) is a Global Skin Health Solutions™ company that provides disease management and aesthetic solutions through innovative laser systems, light-based devices and science-based skincare products. Through its relationships with dermatologists and plastic surgeons, the Company’s products address multiple skin diseases and skin conditions including psoriasis, vitiligo, acne and sun damage. The Company’s experience in addressing these diseases and conditions in the physician market has allowed it to expand its products and services to provide skin health solutions to certain non-physician markets.
 
The Company’s strategic focus is built upon four key components – leveraging its sales force through training focused on superior skin health expertise and incremental product offerings, expanded international capabilities, the development of alternate channels for its varied product lines and a continued commitment to innovation of its technologies.
 
The Company concentrates its strategic efforts primarily in the physician market both domestically and internationally. Supporting those efforts management is committed to innovation, whereby the Company looks to maximize the application of its technologies and utilize the scientific resources available to it in each of its product areas. In the U.S. the Company markets and sells its products through a direct sales organization capable of addressing each product area with specific expertise. The Company’s focus on enhanced training of the sales organization has fostered an ability to drive sales and to support its customer base with a more cost-effective sales force. And, finally the Company looks to leverage its experience and substantial product advancements in the physician market into non-physician based markets, or alternate channels, that may benefit from those technological advancements.
 
Based upon this strategic focus, effective January 1, 2010, management updated the segments that the Company now operates. There are now four distinct business units or segments (as described in Note 14): three in Dermatology – Physician Domestic, Physician International, and Other Channels; and one in Surgical – Surgical Products. The segments are distinguished by the Company’s management structure and the markets or customers served.
 
The Physician Domestic segment generates revenues by selling XTRAC treatments and lasers, skincare and LED products. The Physician International segment generates revenues by selling dermatology equipment and skincare and LED products to international physicians through distributors. The Other Channels segment generates revenues by selling skincare and LED products to indoor tanning and spa markets and to on-line and television retail consumer markets for home use. The Surgical Products segment generates revenues by selling laser and non-laser products including disposables to hospitals and surgery centers both domestically and internationally.
 
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $127,472,533. To date, the Company has dedicated most of its financial resources to research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.
 
Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2011 were $2,551,291. The Company has historically financed its activities with cash from operations, the private placement of equity and debt securities and borrowings under lines of credit.
 
Based on its resources available at March 31, 2011, coupled with the substantial reduction in the use of cash in the last year, the Company believes that it can fund operations through and beyond the second quarter of 2012. However, given the uncertainty in the general economic conditions and its impact on the Company’s industry, and in light of the Company’s historical operating losses and negative cash flows, there is no assurance that the Company will not require additional funds in order to continue as a going concern beyond the second quarter of 2012.

The Company paid interest due on March 1, 2011 with additional convertible notes amounting to $1,021,314 ($146,321 for the Series B-1 interest at 10% and $874,993 for the Series B-2 interest at 10%). As of March 31, 2011, the Convertible Debt was $21,447,590. See Note10, Convertible Debt, for more information.
 
On March 28, 2011, Clutterbuck Funds agreed to extend the maturity date of its loan with the Company, of which the principal of $2.5 million was to be paid at maturity. Previously, the loan matured on September 19, 2011; it will now mature on December 1, 2012. Starting in August 2011, the Company will begin monthly installments of principal such that the final payment at maturity will be $75,000. To induce the modifications to the terms of its loan, the Company has issued to Clutterbuck Funds a second warrant which has been modeled after the first warrant issued on March 19, 2010 but which will be to purchase 109,650 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.70 per share. The collateral securing the first-position security interest of Clutterbuck Funds and the second-position security interest of the holder of the Company’s convertible notes will remain in place.
 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
 
Quarterly Financial Information and Results of Operations
The financial statements as of March 31, 2011 and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2011, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. While management believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures 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 as follows:
 
   
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.    
       
 
 
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.
       
 
 
Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
 
 
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 March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows:

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is based on its demand value, which is equal to its carrying value. The fair values of notes payable and long-term debt are based on borrowing rates that are available to the Company for loans with similar terms, collateral and maturity. The estimated fair values of notes payable and long-term debt approximate the carrying values. Additionally, the carrying value of all other monetary assets and liabilities is estimated to be equal to their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amount of derivative instruments is marked to fair value. See Note 11, Warrants, for additional discussion.
 
Revenue Recognition
The Company has two distribution channels for its phototherapy treatment equipment. The Company either (i) sells the laser through a distributor or directly to a physician or (ii) places the laser in a physician’s office (at no charge to the physician) and charges the physician a fee for an agreed upon number of treatments. 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 sells an XTRAC laser to a distributor or directly to a foreign or domestic physician, revenue is recognized when the following four criteria have been met: (i) the product has been shipped 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 probable (the “Criteria”). At times, units are shipped, but revenue is not recognized until all of the Criteria have been met, and until that time, the unit is carried on the books of the Company as inventory.
 
The Company ships most of its products FOB shipping point, although from time to time certain customers, for example governmental customers, will insist upon FOB destination. Among the factors the Company takes into account in determining the proper time at which to recognize revenue are when title to the goods transfers and when the risk of loss transfers. Shipments to distributors or physicians that do not fully satisfy the collection criterion are recognized when invoiced amounts are fully paid or fully assured.
 
Under the terms of the Company’s distributor agreements, distributors do not have a unilateral right to return any unit that they have purchased. However, the Company does allow products to be returned by its distributors for product defects or other claims.
 
When the Company places a laser in a physician’s office, it generally recognizes service revenue based on the number of patient treatments performed, or purchased under a periodic commitment, by the physician. Treatments to be performed through random 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 delivered to a patient, this obligation has been satisfied.
 

 
- 7 -

 

The Company defers substantially all sales of treatment codes ordered by and delivered to 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. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company deferred $493,216 and $552,928 respectively, under this approach.
 
The Company generates revenues from its Skin Care business primarily through product sales for skin health, hair care and wound care. The Company recognizes revenues on its products and copper peptide compound when they are shipped, net of returns and allowances. The Company ships the products FOB shipping point.
 
The Company generates revenues from its Photo Therapeutics business primarily from two channels. The first is through product sales of LEDs and skincare products. The second is through milestone payments and potential royalty payments from a licensing agreement. The Company recognizes revenues from the product sales, including sales to distributors and other customers, when the Criteria have been met. The Company recognizes the milestone payments when the milestones have been achieved and potential royalty revenues as they are earned from the licensee.
 
Revenues under a now-concluded agreement for the co-promotion of a drug and related device were recognized on a net basis when the Criteria had been met.
 
The Company generates revenues from its Surgical Products business primarily from product sales of laser systems, related maintenance service agreements, recurring laser delivery systems and laser accessories. Domestic sales generally are direct to the end-user, though the Company has some sales to or through a small number of domestic distributors; foreign sales are to distributors. The Company recognizes revenues from surgical laser and other product sales, including sales to distributors and other customers, when the Criteria have been met.
 
Revenue from maintenance service agreements is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreements. Revenue from billable services, including repair activity, is recognized when the service is provided.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased 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 fair value of the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and would no longer be depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as discontinued operations would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet. As of March 31, 2011, no such impairment exists.
 
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. Developed technology was also recorded in connection with the acquisition of ProCyte in March 2005 and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over seven years. Significant patent costs were recorded in connection with the acquisition of Photo Therapeutics in February 2009 and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. Other licenses, including the Stern and Mount Sinai licenses, are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful lives of 10 years. (See Note 4, Patent and Licensed Technologies).
 
Management evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets 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. As of March 31, 2011, no such write-down was required. (See Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles).

Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets were recorded in connection with the acquisition of ProCyte in March 2005. With the exception of the Neutrogena intangible, which has been written down to zero, the assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 to 10 years. In addition, other intangible assets were recorded in connection with the acquisition of Photo Therapeutics in February 2009. These assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years.
 
Management evaluates the recoverability of such other intangible assets 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. As of March 31, 2011 no such write-down was required. (See Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles).
 
Goodwill
Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for as purchases. Management evaluates the recoverability of such goodwill by testing for impairment, at least annually. The first step of the impairment test requires that the Company determine the fair value of each reporting unit, and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s carrying amount. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and the Company must perform a second more detailed assessment. The second assessment involves allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to all of its recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill as of the assessment date. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is then compared to the carrying amount of goodwill to quantify an impairment charge as of the assessment date. There has been no impairment of goodwill recorded through March 31, 2011 (see Impairment of Long-Lived Assets).
 
Accrued Warranty Costs
The Company offers a warranty on product sales generally for a one to two-year period. In the case of domestic sales of XTRAC lasers, however, the Company offers longer periods, ranging from three to four years, in order to meet competition or meet customer demands. The Company provides for the estimated future warranty claims on the date the product is sold. Total accrued warranty is included in other accrued liabilities on the balance sheet. The activity in the warranty accrual during the three months ended March 31, 2011 is summarized as follows:

    (96,540 )
Accrual at end of period
  $ 969,087  
 
Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net loss per share by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution from the conversion or exercise into common stock of securities such as stock options and warrants.
 
In these consolidated financial statements, diluted net loss per share from continuing operations is the same as basic net loss per share. Thus, no additional shares for the potential dilution from the conversion of the Convertible Notes, or from exercise of warrants related to the Convertible Notes or from other warrants or from the exercise of options into common stock are treated as outstanding in the calculation of diluted net loss per share, since the result would be anti-dilutive. Common stock options and warrants of 710,359 and 591,492 as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share from continuing operations since their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Term Note
On March 19, 2010, the Company entered a Term Loan and Security Agreement with Clutterbuck Funds. The Company received net proceeds of $2,373,000 in the transaction. The secured Term Note has a principal amount of $2.5 million, which accrues interest at a rate of 12% per annum. The Term Note requires the Company to make monthly payments of interest only. The principal matures in 18 months and may be prepaid without penalty at any time. The note is secured by XTRAC lasers that the Company has consigned to physician customers and that are not otherwise pledged to CIT Healthcare LLC and Life Sciences Capital LLC pursuant to the outstanding term notes with such lenders.
 
In connection with the issuance of the Term Note to Clutterbuck Funds, the Company issued Clutterbuck Funds a warrant to purchase 102,180 shares of the Company’s common stock for an initial exercise price of $7.34. The warrant is exercisable at any time on or prior to the fifth anniversary of its issue date. Pursuant to the terms of the warrant, the exercise price is subject to a one-time downward adjustment if the Company makes certain issuances of our equity securities at a price per share less than $7.34 during the 36-month period following the issuance of the warrant. As a result of the public offering on May 7, 2010, the number of shares which may be purchased under the warrant increased to 125,000 shares, and the exercise price of the warrant was reduced, in accordance with the one-time adjustment, to $6.00 per share. The warrants are treated as a discount to the debt and are accreted under the effective interest method over the repayment term of 18 months. As of March 31, 2011, the remaining unamortized warrant balance of $293, 321 will be accreted under the effective interest method over the amended repayment period of an additional 21 months.
 
On March 28, 2011, Clutterbuck Funds agreed to extend the maturity date of its loan to the Company, of which the principal of $2.5 million was to be paid at maturity. Previously, the loan matured on September 19, 2011; it will now mature on December 1, 2012. Starting in August 2011, the Company will begin monthly installments of principal such that the final payment at maturity will be $75,000. To induce the modifications to the terms of its loan, the Company has issued to Clutterbuck Funds a second warrant which has been modeled after the first warrant issued on March 19, 2010 but which will be to purchase 109,650 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.70 per share. The collateral securing the first-position security interest of Clutterbuck Funds and the second-position security interest of the holder of the Company’s convertible notes will remain in place. The warrants are treated as a discount to the debt and are accreted under the effective interest method over the repayment term of 21 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:

Term Note Credit Facility
In December 2007, the Company entered into a term-note facility with CIT Healthcare LLC and Life Sciences Capital LLC, as equal participants (collectively, “CIT”), for which CIT Healthcare acts as the agent. The facility originally had a maximum principal amount of $12 million and was for a term of one year. The stated interest rate for any draw under the credit facility was set as 675 basis points above the three-year Treasury rate. CIT levied no points on a draw. Each draw was secured by specific XTRAC laser systems consigned under usage agreements with
 

 
- 14 -

 

physician-customers. On September 30, 2008, the Company and CIT amended the credit facility to increase the amount the Company could draw on the credit facility by $1,927,534. The interest rate for draws against this amount was set at 850 basis points above the LIBOR rate two days prior to the draw. Each draw was to be secured by certain XTRAC laser systems consigned under usage agreements with physician-customers and the stream of payments generated from such lasers. Each draw has a repayment period of three years.
 
In connection with the amendment to the CIT facility, the Company issued warrants to purchase an additional 192,753 shares to CIT Healthcare in September 2008 (which became 27,536 shares as adjusted to reflect the 1-for-7 reverse stock split effective January 26, 2009; and which now stands at 4,589 shares as further adjusted to reflect the 1-for-6 reverse stock split effective February 3, 2010). The warrants are treated as a discount to the debt and are accreted under the effective interest method over the repayment term of 36 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 there is no down-round price protection provision. The Company computed the value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes method.
 
Capital Leases
The obligation under capital lease is at a fixed interest rate and is collateralized by the related property and equipment (see Note 3, Property and Equipment).

The borrowings reflect interest which was earned through March 1, 2011 and which was paid in the form of additional convertible notes.
 
On February 27, 2009, the Investor lent to the Company through a single convertible debt investment $18 million, of which the Company used $13 million to acquire Photo Therapeutics and $5 million for working capital. At the closing of the convertible debt financing, the Company: (i) issued to the Investor (A) a convertible note in the principal amount of $18 million (the “Original Convertible Note”), and (B) a warrant to purchase 174,367 shares of the Company’s common stock as adjusted to reflect the 1-for-6 reverse stock split effective February 3, 2010; and (ii) paid a transaction fee of $210,000 in cash. The conversion price of the Original Convertible Note and the exercise price of the warrant were each $30.96 per share as adjusted to reflect the 1-for-6 reverse stock split effective February 3, 2010.

 
- 15 -

 

The Original Convertible Note was due on February 27, 2014 with interest payments semi-annually at 8%, due on September 1 and March 1 of each year. The interest can be paid by the issuance of additional convertible notes, which have the same interest rate, convertible price per share and maturity date as the Original Convertible Note. The effective interest rate on the Original Convertible Note was 11.64%, which takes into account paid interest as well as accreted interest under an effective interest method from the warrants and loan origination costs. The warrants that were issued give rise to a discount to the debt. This discount, as well as loan origination costs and the transaction fee paid to the Investor, are accreted as interest expense under the effective interest method over the repayment term of 60 months. The Convertible Notes, as well as the warrant to purchase common stock of the Company, contain down-round provisions such that the number of underlying shares, and the corresponding price per share, change if the Company issues stock below the stated conversion and exercise price of the notes and warrant.
 
In order to consummate the bridge financing with a term note (see Note 9, Term Note), it was necessary to secure the consent of the Investor. As of March 19, 2010, the outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Convertible Notes was $19,546,676. In order to obtain the Investor’s consent, the Company agreed to the following modifications to the Convertible Notes:
 
 
 
The Company combined the aggregate outstanding obligations under the Convertible Notes into two convertible notes: Series B-1 and Series B-2. Each note matures on February 27, 2014 and is identical to the original form of convertible note except as noted below. The interest accruing under each note can be paid in the form of additional convertible notes, and in fact the interest earned and payable on September 1,2010 and on March 1, 2011 was paid in the form of additional convertible notes;
     
 
 
The larger, Series B-2 note had a principal amount of $16,746,270. This note remained subject to the same down-round anti-dilution adjustment to the conversion price which was in the unmodified notes. The interest rate of this note was increased from 8% to 10%;
     
 
 
The smaller, Series B-1 note has a principal amount of $2,800,406. The conversion price of this note was reduced to $11.26 and the down-round anti-dilution adjustment to the conversion price was removed. The interest rate of this note was increased from 8% to 10%;
     
 
 
The collateral securing the Convertible Note was expanded by adding a first-priority lien against all of the Company’s assets other than the assets pledged with first-priority liens to CIT Healthcare and to Clutterbuck Funds. When assets are released from the lien of CIT Healthcare, such assets will become subject to the first-priority lien of Clutterbuck Funds and a second-priority lien of the Investor. Finally, when assets are released from the lien of Clutterbuck Funds, such assets will become subject to the first-priority lien of the Investor; and
     
 
 
Three of the Company’s subsidiaries (ProCyte Corporation, Photo Therapeutics, Inc. and SLT Technology, Inc.) have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Convertible Notes.
 
Interest at 10% due under the Series B-1 Convertible Note and Series B-2 Convertible Note, and their related Additional Convertible Notes was paid on March 1, 2011 in the form of additional convertible notes of $146,321 and $874,993, respectively.
 
As of March 31, 2011, the total amount due under the convertible notes outstanding was $21,447,590 and the two notes are convertible into an aggregate of 1,298,133 shares of the Company's common stock. The Series B-2 note and its related additional convertible notes have a conversion price of $17.92306 as of March 31, 2011

Note 11
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) or that contain net settlement provision 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.
 
The warrants issued to the Investor, in conjunction with the $18 million convertible note (see Note 10, Convertible Debt), contain a down-round provision. The Company concluded that the triggering event of the down-round provision was not based on an input to the fair value of “fixed-for-fixed” option and therefore is not considered indexed to the Company’s stock. The warrant contains a net settlement provision, and because it is not indexed to the Company’s stock, it is accounted for as a liability.
 
The Company recognizes these warrants as a liability at the fair value on each reporting date. The Company measured the fair value of these warrants as of March 31, 2011, and recorded other expense of $283,522 resulting from the increase of the liability associated with the fair value of the warrants for the period ended March 31, 2011. The Company measured the fair value of these warrants as of March 31, 2010, and recorded other expense of $931,381 resulting from the increase of the liability associated with the fair value of the warrants for the period ended March 31, 2010. The Company has accounted for the Investor’s warrants as a liability due to the “down-round” price protection provision. See Note 1, Fair Value Measurements. The Company computed the value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes method. The following are the key assumptions used to value the warrants as of the dates indicated:

Employee Stock Benefit Plans
 
The Company has two active, stock-based compensation plans available to grant, among other things, incentive and non-qualified stock options, as well as restricted and unrestricted shares of stock, to employees, directors and third-party service-providers. Under the 2005 Equity Compensation Plan, a maximum of 650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for issuance. At March 31, 2011, 280,996 shares were available for future grants under this plan. Under the Outside Director Plan 29,913 shares were available for issuance as of March 31, 2011. The other stock options plans are frozen and no further grants will be made from them.
 
Stock option activity under all of the Company’s share-based compensation plans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was as follows:
 
   
 
Number of Options
   
Weighted Average
 Exercise Price
 
Outstanding, January 1, 2011

    69,709     $ 25.86  
Options excercisable at March 31, 2011
    44,894     $ 36.49  

At March 31, 2011, there was $1,736,834 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested option grants and stock awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 8.62 years. The intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2011 was not significant.
 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value of grants of stock options with the following weighted average assumptions:

The Company calculates expected volatility for a share-based grant based on historic daily stock price observations of its common stock during the period immediately preceding the grant that is equal in length to the expected term of the grant. For estimating the expected term of share-based grants made in the periods ended March 31, 2010, the Company has adopted the simplified method. The Company has used historical data to estimate expected employee behaviors related to option exercises and forfeitures and included these expected forfeitures as a part of the estimate of expense as of the grant date.
 
With respect to both grants of options and awards of restricted stock, the risk-free rate of interest is based on the U.S. Treasury rates appropriate for the expected term of the grant or award.
 
On January 3, 2011, the Company awarded 8,000 shares of restricted stock to its board directors. These restricted shares will vest over a one-year period. In addition, on January 28, 2011, the Company awarded 8,000 shares of stock to consultants for services performed. The Company determined the fair value of the awards to be the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance less the value paid for the award.
 
On March 30, 2011, the Company awarded 200,000 shares of restricted stock to two of its senior executives. These restricted shares have a purchase price of $0.01 per share and the shares will vest, and no longer be subject to the Company’s right of repurchase, over a 10 year period. The vesting of the awards accelerates upon a change of control and may oblige the Company, in accordance with the executives’ employment agreements, to pay the executives a tax gross-up on excise taxes that may be triggered by the accelerated vesting. In addition, the Company awarded 10,000 shares of restricted stock to a third executive. These restricted shares have a purchase price of $0.01 per share and the shares will vest, and no longer be subject to the Company’s right of repurchase, over a five-year period. The Company determined the fair value of the awards to be the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance less the value paid for the award.
 
Compensation expense is presented as part of the operating results in selling, general and administrative expenses. For stock granted to consultants, an additional selling, general, and administrative expense in the amount of $46,000 was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2011. For stock options granted to consultants an additional selling, general, and administrative expense in the amount of $73,765 was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
Note 13
Business Segments and Geographic Data:
 
Effective January 1, 2010, the Company reorganized its business into four operating units to better align its organization based upon the Company’s management structure, products and services offered, markets served and types of customers. The Physician Domestic segment derives its primary revenues from XTRAC procedures performed by dermatologists, the sales of XTRAC laser sales, and the sales of skincare and LED products in the United States. The Physician International segment, in comparison, generates revenues from the sale of equipment, skincare and LED products to dermatologists outside the United States through a network of distributors. The Other Channels segment derives revenues by selling skincare and LED products to indoor tanning and spa markets and to on-line and television retail consumer markets for home use on both a domestic and an international basis. The Surgical Products segment generates revenues by selling laser products and disposables to hospitals and surgery centers on both a domestic and an international basis. Management reviews financial information presented on an operating segment basis for the purposes of making certain operating decisions and assessing financial performance.
 
Unallocated operating expenses include costs that are not specific to a particular segment but are general to the group; included are expenses incurred for administrative and accounting staff, general liability and other insurance, professional fees and other similar corporate expenses. Unallocated assets include cash, prepaid expenses and deposits. Goodwill of $12,793,455, $4,037,934 and $2,737,811 has been allocated to the Physician Domestic, Physician International and Other Channels segments, respectively, based upon the fair value of the reporting segments as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The Company revised its results of operations for its business segments for the three months ended March 31, 2010 to reflect a reclass between the Physician International and Surgical Products costs of revenues. The correction had no effect on the Company’s previously reported net loss, consolidated balance sheet, or net cash flows, and is not considered material to any previously reported consolidated financial statements.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Report.
 
Introduction, Outlook and Overview of Business Operations
 
We view our current business as comprised of the following four business segments:
 
   
Physician Domestic;      
       
 
  Physician International;
       
 
  Other Channels; and
       
 
  Surgical Products.
 
 
Physician Domestic
 
In early 2010, we modified our discrete product sales approach for each of our segments and implemented a strategy to develop a skin health solutions-based sales force. We believe this solutions-based sales force is cost-efficient, more productive and scalable and can better increase sales and financial leverage while providing solutions across our product suite to our customers.
 
Our XTRAC treatment services are a U.S.-based business with revenues generally derived from procedures performed by dermatologists. We are engaged in the development, manufacturing and marketing of our proprietary XTRAC excimer laser and delivery systems and techniques used in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders, including psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis and leukoderma.
 

 
- 22 -

 

As part of our commercialization strategy in the United States, we generally offer the XTRAC laser system to targeted dermatologists at no initial capital cost to those dermatologists. Under this contractual arrangement, we maintain ownership of the laser and generally earn revenue each time a physician treats a patient with the equipment. We believe this arrangement will increase market penetration. We also may sell the laser directly to the customer for certain reasons, including the costs of logistical support and customer preference and as a means of addressing under-performing accounts while still preserving a vendor-customer relationship. We believe that we are thus able to reach, at reasonable margins, a sector of the laser market that is better suited to a sale model than a per-procedure model.
 
For the last several years we have sought to obtain health insurance coverage for XTRAC laser therapy to treat inflammatory skin disease, particularly psoriasis. We now benefit from the fact that, by our estimates, more than 90% of the insured United States population are covered by policies that provide nearly full reimbursement for the treatment of psoriasis by means of an excimer laser.
 
Our skincare products are aimed at the growing demand for skin health and hair care products, including products to enhance appearance and address the effects of aging on skin and hair. Our skincare products are formulated and branded for and targeted at specific markets. Our initial products addressed the dermatology and plastic and cosmetic surgery markets for use after various procedures. We added anti-aging skincare products to offer a comprehensive approach for a patient’s skincare regimen. In addition to our copper peptide based skincare products, in 2009, we introduced DNA topical products, which include DNA Nourishing Lotion and DNA Total Repair which use innovative technology to address the effects of photo-damage. In September 2010, we launched combination therapy products by uniquely combining Copper Peptide Complex and DNA repair technologies. These products are designed to activate self-healing, boost essential skin cell function and maximize results for sustained skin health. The products include Refining Eye Lift, Eye Therapy, Day Therapy SPF 30, Night Therapy, Crème De La Copper and Maximum Body Repair.
 
Our PTL products are non-laser light aesthetic devices for the treatment of a range of clinical and non-clinical dermatological conditions. We have incorporated our PTL technology offering into professional products comprising the Omnilux™ systems for the medical market. Our PTL business has a portfolio of independent, experimental research that supports the efficacy and safety of our Omnilux technology system. Based on a patented technology platform comprised of a unique light-emitting diode (“LED”) array, our Omnilux technology delivers narrow-band, spectrally pure light of specific intensity, wavelength and dose to achieve clinically proven results via a process called photo bio-modulation. Since this technology generates nearly no heat, a patient feels no pain or discomfort, resulting in improved regime compliance and a higher likelihood of repeat procedures; this is in direct contrast to the current laser light-based technologies serving the aesthetics market today. Our PTL LED products compete in the professional aesthetics device market for LED aesthetic medical procedures, as well as other non-medical markets around the world.
 
Physician International
 
Our international operations and selling approach have been realigned. Management believes our international organization has been dramatically enhanced through two initiatives. First, we have entered into an expanded management relationship with The Lotus Global Group, Inc., doing business as GlobalMed Technologies Co., or GlobalMed, with respect to our laser and light-based devices. GlobalMed is an international distribution and management company focused on creating increased market opportunity through the engagement and management of local in-country distributors and providing assistance in expediting regulatory approvals. Historically, GlobalMed managed our distribution relationships in the Pacific Rim for the XTRAC and VTRAC product lines, which represented a majority of our total international device sales. As a result of its success in managing our Pacific Rim distribution relationships, we have now expanded GlobalMed’s responsibilities to include all of our laser and light-based devices in substantially all markets outside of the U.S. Second, we have begun to undertake significant efforts to expand the international reach of our skincare business in both the physician and consumer channels by reformulating our current products to meet local standards and registering these products in major international markets. Third, we have made the XTRAC easier to maintain at the distributor locations, employing a modular approach to replacement of chambers. These are the first steps in the implementation of our international skincare expansion strategy.
 

 
- 23 -

 

In the international market, we derive revenues by selling our dermatology laser and lamp systems and replacement parts to distributors and directly to physicians. In this market, we have benefited from both our clinical studies and from the improved reliability and functionality of the XTRAC laser system. Compared to the domestic segment, the sales of laser and lamp systems in the international segment are influenced to a greater degree by competition from similar laser technologies as well as non-laser lamp alternatives. Over time, this competition has reduced the prices we are able to charge to international distributors for our XTRAC products. To compete with other non-laser UVB products, we offer a lower-priced, lamp-based system called the VTRAC. We have expanded the international marketing of the VTRAC since its introduction in 2006. The VTRAC is used to treat psoriasis and vitiligo.
 
In addition, we also derive revenues by selling our skincare and PTL products to distributors in international markets.
 
Other Channels
 
In the Other Channels segment, we derive revenues by selling our skincare and haircare products through non-physician channels. In addition, through our PTL products we derive revenues from the sale of the Lumiere® systems in the non-medical professional market and our hand-held consumer devices in various on-line and television retail channels.
 
We are focused on expanding our sales to non-physician related channels, including the indoor tanning and spa markets and in-store, on-line and television retail channels. We access the indoor tanning and spa markets either through direct relationships with multiple-location market participants or indirectly through industry-leading distributors. To further expand our retail channels, we have entered into a relationship with GlobalBeauty Group, or GlobalBeauty, to assist in the development of new sales channels in the direct to consumer skincare market, including in-store, on-line and television retail channels. GlobalBeauty connects product-focused companies with emerging retail channels in order to expand domestic and international market opportunities.
 
Surgical Products
 
Our Surgical Products segment generates revenues by selling laser products and disposables to hospitals and surgery centers both within and outside of the United States. Also included in this segment are various non-laser surgical products (e.g. the ClearEss® II suction-irrigation system). We believe that sales of surgical laser systems and the related disposable base will tend to erode as hospitals continue to seek outsourcing solutions instead of purchasing lasers and related disposables for their operating rooms. We are working to offset such erosion by increasing sales from the Diode surgical laser, including original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) arrangements.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
As of March 31, 2011, our sales and marketing personnel consisted of 67 full-time positions directed to sales as follows: 62 in Physician Domestic, two in Physician International and three in Other Channels.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates in the three months ended March 31, 2011. Critical accounting policies and the significant estimates made in accordance with them are regularly discussed with our Audit Committee. Those policies are discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies” in our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

XTRAC Treatments
 
Recognized treatment revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 for domestic XTRAC procedures was $1,799,276 and $2,221,897, respectively, reflecting billed procedures of 29,471 and 37,041, respectively. In addition, 1,603 and 1,391 procedures were performed in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, without billing from us, in connection with clinical research and customer evaluations of the XTRAC laser. There was a decrease in treatment revenues due to a decrease in the installed base of 21% compared to the prior year period. This decrease directly relates to an increase in domestic laser sales over the same period. The additional lasers sold are reflective of an increase in customer demand to own the XTRAC laser.
 
We have a program to support certain physicians who may be denied reimbursement by private insurance carriers for XTRAC treatments. We recognize service revenue during this program from the sale of XTRAC procedures or equivalent treatments to physicians participating in this program only to the extent the physicians have been reimbursed for the treatments. In addition, 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. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we deferred net revenues of $143,509 (2,177 procedures) and $148,181 (2,316 procedures), respectively.

The average price for an XTRAC treatment may be reduced in some instances based on the volume of treatments performed. The average price for a treatment also varies based upon the mix of mild and moderate psoriasis patients treated by our physician partners. We charge a higher price per treatment for moderate psoriasis patients due to the increased body surface area required to be treated, although there are fewer patients with moderate psoriasis than there are with mild psoriasis.
 
XTRAC laser sales
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, domestic XTRAC laser sales were $1,410,840 and $128,200, respectively. There were 29 and 4 lasers sold during these periods, respectively. We sell the laser directly to the customer for certain reasons, including the costs of logistical support and customer preference as well as a means of addressing under-performing accounts while preserving the vendor-customer relationship. We believe that we are able to reach, at reasonable margins, a sector of the laser market that is better suited to a sale model than a per-procedure, or consignment, model.
 
Skincare products
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 revenues were $1,501,856 compared to $1,244,373 in the three months ended March 31, 2010. These revenues are generated from the sale of various skin, hair care and wound products to physicians in the domestic market. We believe our skincare products are more susceptible to macro-economic conditions than our other products because cosmetic products are more likely to be discretionary and not medically necessary.
 
PTL products
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, PTL product revenues were $276,744 compared to $240,650 in the three months ended March 31, 2010. These revenues are generated from the sale of LED devices. There were 23 LED units sold during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 18 LED units sold in the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
Other
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had miscellaneous revenues under a now-concluded agreement for the co-promotion of a drug and related device.

International Dermatology Equipment
 
International sales of our XTRAC and VTRAC laser systems and related parts were $1,136,663 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $632,005 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. We sold 23 and 16 systems in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The average price of dermatology equipment sold internationally varies due to the quantities of VTRAC systems and refurbished domestic XTRAC systems sold. Both of these products have lower average selling prices than new XTRAC laser systems. However, by adding these to our product offerings along with expanding into new geographic territories where the products are sold, we have been able to increase overall international dermatology equipment revenues.
 
   
We sell refurbished domestic XTRAC laser systems into the international market. The selling price for used equipment is substantially less than for new equipment, some of which may be substantially depreciated in connection with its use in the domestic market. We sold 4 of these used lasers in the three month ended March 31, 2011, at an average price of $23,000. We sold 10 of these used lasers, at an average price of $21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010; and
       
   
In addition to the XTRAC laser system (both new and used), we sell the VTRAC, a lamp-based alternative UVB light source that has a wholesale sales price that is below our competitors’ international dermatology equipment and below our XTRAC laser. We sold 11 VTRAC systems in the three months ended March 31, 2011 at an average price of $24,500. We sold 2 VTRAC systems, at an average price of $27,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Surgical Products segment revenues include revenues derived from the sale of surgical laser systems together with sales of related laser fibers and laser disposables. Laser fibers and laser disposables are more profitable than laser systems, but the sales of laser systems generate subsequent recurring sales of fibers and disposables.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, surgical products revenues were $780,927 compared to $801,069 in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in the three-month periods was mainly due to less laser sales between the comparable three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.
 
The change in average price per laser between the periods, as set forth in the table below, was largely due to the mix of lasers sold and partly due to the trade level at which the lasers were sold (i.e. wholesale versus retail). Included in laser sales during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were sales of 6 and 9 diode lasers, respectively. The diode lasers have lower sales prices than our other types of lasers.
 
Cost of Revenues: all segments
 
Our costs of revenues are comprised of product cost of revenues and service cost of revenues. Within product cost of revenues are the costs of products sold in our Physician Domestic segment (with XTRAC treatments included in the services side of the segment), Physician International segment, Other Channels (with royalties and licensing fees included in the services side of the segment), and our Surgical Products segment (with laser maintenance fees included in the services side of this segment). Within services cost of revenues are the costs associated with our XTRAC treatment revenues, as well as costs associated with royalties and licensing fees and maintenance revenue.
 
Product cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $3,057,788, compared to $2,199,610 in the comparable period in 2010. The $858,178 increase is due to the increases in laser sales for XTRAC lasers in the Physician Domestic segment for $1,283,000 and due to the overall increase in revenues.
 
Service cost of revenues was $1,334,577 in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $1,394,727 in the comparable period in 2010 representing a decrease of $60,150. The decrease is directly related to the decrease in Physician Domestic segment costs of $43,056 related to our XTRAC treatments.
 
Certain allocable XTRAC manufacturing overhead costs are charged against the XTRAC service revenues. Our manufacturing facility in Carlsbad, California is used exclusively for the production of the XTRAC lasers. The unabsorbed costs are allocated to the Physician Domestic and the Physician International segments based on actual production of lasers for each segment. Included in these allocated manufacturing costs are plant inefficiencies for unabsorbed labor and direct plant costs.

The primary reasons for the changes in gross profit and the gross margin percentage for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010 were as follows:
 
   
In the Physician Domestic segment, we sold approximately $1,283,000 more in domestic XTRAC lasers in the three months ended March 31, 2011 while the cost of sales associated with these sales increased $449,000 between the comparable periods. The margin on these capital equipment sales was 66% in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 77% in the comparable period in 2010. Certain of these lasers were being depreciated until the time of sale, since they were previously utilized as field placements.
       
   
In the Physician International segment, we sold 12 XTRAC laser systems and 11 VTRAC lamp-based excimer systems during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 14 XTRAC laser systems and 2 VTRAC systems in the comparable period in 2010. Included in the 12 XTRAC lasers systems sold were 4 used laser systems, which have a lower average selling price and gross margin percentage, compared to 10 used laser systems sold in the three months ended March 31, 2010. Consequently, gross profit increased as a result of the number of units sold, although gross margin percentage for these units decreased due to the mix of the units sold.

Gross profit increased for this segment for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from the comparable period in 2010 by $618,484. In addition to the overall higher revenues between the periods, other key factors for the increase were as follows:
 
   
We sold approximately $1,283,000 more in domestic XTRAC lasers in the three months ended March 31, 2011 than in the comparable prior year period. The margin on these capital equipment sales was 66% in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 77% in the comparable period in 2010. Certain of these lasers were being depreciated until the time of sale, since they were previously utilized as field placements.
       
   
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the skincare product revenues increased $257,000 over the prior year period, while the cost of sales for these products increased $105,000 for the same comparable periods.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2011 decreased by $20,000 from the three months ended March 31, 2010. There were 3 fewer laser systems sold in the three months ended March 31, 2011 than in the comparable period of 2010. Additionally, the lasers sold in the 2011 period were sold at lower prices than those sold in the comparable period in 2010. The decrease in average price per laser was largely due to the mix of lasers sold and volume discounts. Included in the laser sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were sales of diode lasers of $104,000, representing 6 systems, and $190,000, representing 9 systems respectively, which have substantially lower list sales prices than our other types of surgical lasers.
         
     
Additionally, there was an increase in sales of disposables between the periods, which have a higher gross margin as a percent of revenues than lasers. Fiber and other disposables sales increased 14% between the comparable periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $5,111,847 from $5,083,873 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 for the following reasons:
 
   
There was a $206,000 increase in salaries, benefits and travel expenses associated with an increase in the sales and marketing force.
       
   
There was an increase of approximately $185,000 in legal costs in the current year period.
       
   
Partially offsetting the above increases, we had a reduction of costs in our UK offices of approximately $118,000 due to the closing of the two office locations.
       
   
There was a decrease of approximately $125,000 in stock compensation expense in the current year period. This was due to the completion of the option exchange program in 2010.
       
   
There was also a decrease in bad debt expense of $90,000 in the current year period.
       
   
Additionally, there was a decrease in amortization expense of $72,000 related to intangibles that are fully amortized.
 
Engineering and Product Development
 
Engineering and product development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased to $456,325 from $339,277 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase is directly related to engineering and product development expenses related to the XTRAC products. These personnel were previously devoted to manufacturing and thus included in cost of sales for the comparable prior year period.
 
Interest Expense, Net
 
Net interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased to $887,076 from $653,843 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The change in net interest expense was the result of the interest expense on the convertible debt which was issued on February 27, 2009. The following table illustrates the change in interest expense, net:

Change in fair value of warrants
 
In accordance with FASB ASC 470, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (“ASC Topic 470”) warrants issued in connection with the financing to acquire PTL were recorded at fair value and recognized as liabilities. In accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”), we measured the fair value of these warrants as of March 31, 2011, and recorded $283,522 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 in other expense. We measured the fair value of these warrants as of March 31, 2010, and recognized $931,381 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 in other expense.
 
Net Loss
 
The factors described above resulted in a net loss of $2,908,413 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to a net loss of $3,915,783 during the three months ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of 25.7%.
 
Management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures to monitor our performance.
 
We present a computation of non-GAAP adjusted net loss and non-GAAP adjusted loss per share. We define non-GAAP adjusted net loss as net loss before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, severance costs, interest expense - net, change in fair value of warrants, inventory valuation expense and bad debt expense. We believe that non-GAAP adjusted net loss is a meaningful measure which may be used when making period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure and should be viewed in conjunction with net loss on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
 
We also present non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) per share which is derived by dividing non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) by the shares used in computing basic and diluted net loss per share. Non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) per share is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure and should be viewed in conjunction with basic and diluted net loss per share on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
 
There are limitations in using these non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company’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 the Company’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, the Company believes non-GAAP measures that exclude stock-based compensation expense and other non-cash or non-recurring expenses enhance the comparability of results against prior periods.
 
The following table illustrates the impact of major expenses, in particular depreciation, amortization and stock option expense, between the periods:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We have historically financed our operations with cash provided by equity financing and from lines of credit.
 
At March 31, 2011, our current ratio was 1.49 compared to 1.30 at December 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2011 we had $4,414,201 of working capital compared to $3,122,545 as of December 31, 2010. Cash and cash equivalents were $2,551,291 as of March 31, 2011, as compared to $3,523,948 as of December 31, 2010.
 
Based on our resources available at March 31, 2011, the substantial reduction in the use of cash in the last year, we believe that we can fund our operations through and beyond the second quarter of 2012. However, given the uncertainty in the general economic conditions and its impact on our business and industry, and in light of our historical operating losses and negative cash flows, there is no assurance that we will not require additional funds in order to continue as a going concern through and beyond the second quarter of 2012.
 
We have restructured our operations and redirected our efforts in a manner that management believes will continue to improve results of operations. As part of such redirected efforts, management continues comprehensive efforts to minimize our operational costs and capital expenditures and continues the implementation of strategies that were developed to increase ongoing revenue streams.
 
Interest at 10% was paid on March 1, 2011 in the form of additional convertible notes of $146,321 and $874,993 for the Series B-1 Convertible Note and Series B-2 Convertible Note, and their related additional Convertible Notes, respectively.

On March 28, 2011, Clutterbuck Funds agreed to extend the maturity date of its loan to us, of which the principal of $2.5 million was to be paid at maturity. Previously, the loan matured on September 19, 2011; it will now mature on December 1, 2012. Starting in August 2011, we will begin monthly installments of principal such that the final payment at maturity will be $75,000. To induce the modifications to the terms of its loan, we have issued to Clutterbuck Funds a second warrant which has been modeled after the first warrant issued on March 19, 2010 but which is to purchase 109,650 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.70 per share. The collateral securing the first-position security interest of Clutterbuck Funds and the second-position security interest of the Investor remains in place.
 
Net cash and cash equivalents used in operating activities was $824,228 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to cash used of $273,179 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was mostly due to the increases in inventories, which was partly offset by an increase in accounts payable.
 
Net cash and cash equivalents provided by investing activities was $242,134 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to cash used of $807,997 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This was primarily due to a decrease in the placement of lasers into service.
 
When we retire a laser from service, we transfer the laser into inventory and then write off the net book value of the laser, which is typically negligible. Over the last few years the retirements of lasers from service have been minor or immaterial and, therefore, they are reported with placements on a net basis.
 
Net cash and cash equivalents used in financing activities was $392,947 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to cash provided by $1,013,681 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. In the three months ended March 31, 2011, we had repayments of $332,209 on the line of credit, $57,711 for certain notes payable and $3,027 in registration costs. In the three months ended March 31, 2010 we received $2.5 million in proceeds in the term debt financing which was partially offset by repayment of $946,652 on the line of credit, $106,452 for certain notes payable and $433,215 in registration costs.
 
Commitments and Contingencies
 
Except for items discussed in Legal Proceedings below, during the three months ended March 31, 2011, there were no other items that significantly impacted our commitments and contingencies as discussed in the notes to our 2010 annual financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of March 31, 2011, we have no significant 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 sales or expenses.
 
ITEM 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
 
Certain of our outstanding warrants are accounted for as derivative financial instruments. The derivative financial instruments are revalued each period, which may cause material fluctuations in our results from operations. As a result of this volatility, we may experience material swings in our net loss or income attributable to common stockholders. We are presenting pro-forma information which shows the effect on the derivative liability if our per share common stock price of $7.37 on March 31, 2011 had been increased or decreased by $1.50.
 
The following table shows the effect of changes in the price of our common stock prices on the derivative financial instruments shown in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the decrease or increase in fair value of derivative financial instruments and net loss attributable to our common stockholders shown in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as of March 31, 2011.

Foreign Exchange Risk
 
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to the operation of our international subsidiary. The subsidiary’s main operating currency is pounds sterling. At the end of each reporting period, expenses of the subsidiary are converted into US dollars using the average currency rate in effect for the period and assets and liabilities are converted into US dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the end of the period.
 
Additionally, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations relating to payments we make to vendors and suppliers using foreign currencies. We currently do not hedge against this foreign currency risk. Fluctuations in exchange rates may impact our financial condition and results of operations.
 
ITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report are effective such that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure
 
Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - Other Information
 
 
Reference is made to Item 3, Legal Proceedings, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for descriptions of our legal proceedings.
 
Ra Medical
 
The Company has been involved in a number of disputes with Ra Medical Systems, Inc. and Dean Irwin, one of the Company’s former employees and now an officer of Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (Ra Medical Systems, Inc and Irwin are collectively referred to herein as “Ra Medical”). With respect to the action brought by the Company in January 2004 against Ra Medical for falsely advertising that Ra Medical had clearance from the Food and Drug Administration, and for falsely claiming in March 2003 that its laser would be available for purchase in August 2003 and for falsely claiming that Irwin was the sole inventor of the XTRAC laser system, trial has been set for late June 2011. With respect to the action which Ra Medical brought against the Company in June 2006 for unfair competition and in which the Company brought counterclaims under Federal and State law addressing such issues as misappropriation, unfair competition and unfair advertising, discovery in that action has begun, with trial targeted for the first quarter of 2012.
 
St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company
 
In January 2009, the Company brought a second coverage action against St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company (“St. Paul”), our general liability and umbrella liability insurer, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in which the Company argued that the policy provided coverage for the new malicious prosecution claim asserted by Ra Medical, and the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment on the issue of whether the policy covers malicious prosecution claims. Accordingly, the only issue before the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, where St. Paul had brought a declaratory judgment action, is whether St. Paul has been released from any further coverage arising out of a claim by Ra Medical for malicious prosecution. The parties have filed cross-motions for summary judgment on the issue of the effect of the release. Oral argument on such motions has been continued.
 
Dermatologist’s action against Ra Medical and PhotoMedex
 
On or about October 14, 2009, a dermatologist brought an action against Ra Medical and Dean Irwin in the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit, Macon County, Illinois, docket no. 09-L-175. The plaintiff has two principal grievances against Ra Medical: (i) that Ra Medical sold the dermatologist one of its Pharos lasers in September 2006, before Ra Medical had the right under FDA regulations to sell the laser in the United States, and (ii) that the laser failed to perform according to its specifications in that it repeatedly failed to deliver the dosage of light demanded by the laser operator for the patient’s treatment, with the result that some patients were under-dosed and showed negligible or no improvement while other patients were over-dosed and their skin blistered. The plaintiff seeks damages from Ra Medical. Included in the plaintiff’s claim against Ra Medical and Mr. Irwin is a claim of consumer fraud, with a potential trebling of damages.
 
The plaintiff joined the Company as co-defendants and seeks a declaratory judgment from the court that when PhotoMedex and the plaintiff had tested the performance of the laser from Ra Medical, they had not acted improperly – as alleged by an attorney for Ra Medical – but within their rights, and the Company has answered the complaint and also lodged against Ra Medical a claim for interference with prospective economic advantage from the plaintiff.
 
Ra Medical moved that the Court should dismiss the Company’s claim against Ra Medical on various grounds. The Court heard the motion on March 24, 2011. The Court ruled that the Company must amend its counterclaim to include only injury from interference with prospective economic advantage and to exclude injury from any interference by Ra Medical with the Company’s contract. The Company has made and filed this amendment.

Other
 
The Company is involved in certain other legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes, based on discussions with legal counsel, that these other litigations and claims will likely be resolved without a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
