Cutera Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results
Revenue Grew 22% to $14.9 Million

BRISBANE, Calif., August 1, 2011 ─ Cutera, Inc. (NASDAQ: CUTR), a leading provider of laser and other light-based aesthetic systems for practitioners worldwide, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.

Second quarter 2011 revenue was $14.9 million, or 22% higher, when compared to $12.2 million in the same period last year.  Net loss for the second quarter of 2011 was $2.5 million or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.8 million or $0.28 per diluted share.

Kevin Connors, President and CEO of Cutera, stated, “In our second quarter we experienced growth in all of our major geographical segments and have been very pleased with the market acceptance of our recently launched GenesisPlus product in the US.  We received FDA approval for onychomycosis (toenail fungus) in April of 2011 and Canadian approval in July 2011. With these clearances, we are beginning to penetrate the developing podiatry market for laser based products.  In addition, we were pleased with our performance in Japan during the second quarter and the pace of market recovery following the disastrous earthquake that occurred in March 2011.”
 
“We believe our revenue growth during the second quarter was also a direct result of our new US sales leadership and the talented sales team they have built.  Our new sales leadership coupled with the recent GenesisPlus and Excel V product launches are key initiatives that we believe will continue to improve our performance.”

Mr. Connors concluded, “We remain focused on key initiatives to increase future revenue levels and leverage our business model, which we expect will result in improved margins and cash flows in 2011, compared to 2010.  We believe that our worldwide distribution network, strong balance sheet with approximately $95 million in cash and investments – with no debt – a broad portfolio of products, and various research and development projects underway, offer continuing, long-term opportunities for our company.”
