NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Bovie,” and similar terms refer to Bovie Medical Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon SEC rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, please refer to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. These financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

NOTE 2. INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Finished goods and work-in-process inventories include material, labor, and overhead costs. Factory overhead costs are allocated to inventory manufactured in-house based upon labor hours.

Inventories at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 3. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, intangible assets consisted of the following (in thousands):

With respect to our trademark and brand name, we continue to market products, release new products and product extensions and maintain and promote these trademarks and brand name in the marketplace through legal registration and such methods as advertising, medical education and trade shows. It is our belief that these trademarks and brand names will generate cash flow for an indefinite period of time. Therefore, we believe our trademarks and brand name intangible assets are not impaired as of September 30, 2016.

Amortization of intangibles, which is included in depreciation and amortization in the accompanying statements of cash flows, was approximately $81,000 during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

NOTE 4. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU No. 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2018. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance may be adopted prospectively or retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 Compensation-Stock Compensation - (Topic 718) Improvements to employee share-based payments accounting as part of simplicity initiatives. This update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Some of the areas for simplification apply only to nonpublic entities. For us, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the period had or is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

NOTE 5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are measured in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05, Fair Value Measurements. FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities as well as for non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

The statement requires fair value measurement be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement. Our derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are all measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following represents a reconciliation of the changes in fair value of warrants measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs during the nine months ended September 30, 2016: 

___________

NOTE 6. EARNINGS PER SHARE (in thousands, except EPS)

We compute basic earnings per share (“basic EPS”) by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share (“diluted EPS”) gives effect to all dilutive potential shares outstanding. The following table provides the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2016 and 2015:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the potential conversion of Series B Preferred Stock into 3,951,278 shares of common stock was excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is anti-dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the three months ended September 30, 2015, the change in the fair market valuation of the derivative liability was excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is anti-dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the three months ended September 30, 2015, the exercise of warrants and options were excluded from the computation of fully diluted earnings per share because their effect was antidilutive. At September 30, 2016, 254,375 warrants and 2,780,876 options, exercisable into 1,062,592 common shares, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is anti-dilutive.

NOTE 7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Under our stock option plans, our board of directors may grant options to purchase common shares to our key employees, officers, non-employees, directors and consultants. We account for stock options in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, with option expense amortized over the vesting period based on the trinomial lattice option-pricing model fair value on the grant date, which includes a number of estimates that affect the amount of our expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we expensed approximately $533,000 in stock-based compensation.

Activity in our stock options during the period ended September 30, 2016 was as follows:

The grant date fair value of options granted during the first nine months of 2016 were estimated on the grant date using a trinomial lattice option-pricing model and the following assumptions: expected volatility of 49.5%, expected term of between 5-8 years, risk-free interest rate of 1.5%, and expected dividend yield of 0%.

On June 30, 2016, the Company entered into a sales channel partnership agreement with Arteriocyte LLC. As part of the agreement, Arteriocyte was granted 240,000 ten-year options with a four year performance based vesting schedule and an exercise price of $1.64 per option.

Expected volatility is based on the average of the historical volatility of the Company's stock over the expected term of the options. The risk-free rate is based on the rate of U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options. The Company uses historical data to estimate pre-vesting forfeiture rates.

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax provision was $0 with an effective tax rate of 0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the valuation allowance on the Company’s net deferred tax assets with finite life.

As a result of historical losses, the Company recorded a valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset with a finite life and does not anticipate recording an income tax benefit related to these deferred tax assets. The Company reassesses the realization of deferred tax assets each reporting period and will be able to reduce the valuation allowance to the extent that the financial results of these operations improve and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we do not believe we had any significant uncertain tax positions nor did we have any interest or penalties related to any significant uncertain tax positions.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, state income tax and Bulgarian income tax. Until the respective statutes of limitations expire (which may be as much as 20 years while we have unused NOL’s), we are subject to income tax audits in the jurisdictions in which we operate.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND CONCENTRATIONS

In March 2014, we entered into a lease for offices located in Purchase, New York, where we are obligated to pay $9,277 per month for the lease expiring June 14, 2019. The lease is for 3,650 square feet of office space.

In October 2015, pursuant to our acquisition of Bovie Bulgaria, we are obligated to pay approximately $6,350 per month for the lease expiring on December 31, 2016.

The following is a schedule of approximate future minimum lease payments under operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of September 30, 2016 for the calendar years ending December 31, 2016 and thereafter (in thousands):

Rent expense approximated $57,720 and $140,000 for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2016 and $25,075 and $78,000 for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2015, respectively.

Other future contractual obligations for other agreements with initial terms greater than one year and agreements to purchase materials in the normal course of business are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Litigation

In the normal course of business, we are subject, from time to time, to legal proceedings, lawsuits and claims. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. If any of these matters arise in the future, it could affect the operating results of any one or more quarters.

We expense costs of litigation related to contingencies in the periods in which the costs are incurred.

Concentrations

Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 56.9% and 57.8% of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

NOTE 10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The agreement with AR Logic provides for a monthly retainer for engineering support for our existing generator product line and a separate hourly based fee structure for additional consulting related to new product lines. AR Logic has a royalty contract with us related to the creation and design of proprietary technology that is used in some of our generators. AR Logic was paid consulting fees of approximately $81,000 and $158,000 for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2016 and $63,000 and $241,000 for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2015, respectively.

NOTE 11. LONG TERM DEBT

On June 28, 2016, the Company entered into a transaction with Bank of Tampa, a Florida banking corporation (“Lender”) wherein Lender amended the terms of a mortgage loan (“the Loan”) originally executed on March 20, 2014 with a principal amount of $3,592,000. The Initial Maturity Date of the Loan was extended to July 20, 2019 from March 19, 2017, and the Extended Maturity Date was amended to July 20, 2024 from March 20, 2022. In addition, the Lender released as collateral to the Loan, the Company’s working capital accounts in exchange for a negative covenant limited to $2,000,000 of the aggregate indebtedness secured by these accounts.

The obligations under the Loan are secured by a first mortgage and security interest in the Company’s Clearwater, Florida facility. In addition, the Company has pledged an interest in a certificate of deposit in the amount of $779,000 as additional collateral. The amount of the additional collateral required declines on a pro rata basis as principal is paid.

Borrowings under the Loan bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.5%, with a fixed monthly principal payment of $19,956. The interest rate at September 30, 2016 was 4.025%.

The Loan documents contain customary financial covenants, including a covenant that the Company maintains a minimum liquidity of $750,000. Should we desire to extend the Loan beyond July 20, 2019, we must maintain a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each of the preceding four quarters of not less than 1.0 to 1.0.

NOTE 12. GEOGRAPHIC AND PRODUCT LINE INFORMATION

International sales represented approximately 13.2% and 14.9% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, as compared with 13.5% and 13.3% of total revenues for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2015.

Although we have only one reporting segment, management analyzes revenue and other operating metrics across three operating categories.

Past performance is no guaranty of future results.

Executive Level Overview

Bovie Medical Corporation (“Company”, “Bovie Medical”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) was incorporated in 1982, under the laws of the State of Delaware and has its principal executive office at 4 Manhattanville Road, Suite #106, Purchase, New York 10577.

We are an energy-based medical device company specializing in developing, manufacturing, and marketing a range of electrosurgical products and technologies, as well as related medical products used in doctor’s offices, surgery centers and hospitals worldwide. Our medical devices are marketed through Bovie’s own well-respected brands (Bovie^Ò, J-Plasma^Ò, IDS^™ and ICON^™) and on a private label basis to distributors throughout the world. The Company also leverages its expertise in the design, development and manufacturing of electrosurgical equipment by producing equipment for large, well-known medical device manufacturers as well as emerging medical start-ups, through original equipment manufacturing (OEM) agreements.

We are also the developer of J-Plasma^Ò, a patented plasma-based surgical product which we believe has the potential to be a transformational product for surgeons. J-Plasma utilizes a helium ionization process that produces a stable, focused beam of ionized gas that provides surgeons with greater precision, minimal invasiveness and an absence of conductive currents during surgery. While currently in the early stages of commercialization, J-Plasma has been the subject of eleven independent white papers and has been cited therein for its clinical utility in gynecological surgeries and dermatologic/facial plastic surgery procedures.

On March 17, 2015, we closed our underwritten public offering of 4,800,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share at a price to the public of $2.50 per share, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $10.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. We are using the proceeds from the offering for operating costs, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes, including working capital. Craig-Hallum acted as the sole managing underwriter for the offering.

On March 31, 2015 Craig-Hallum exercised a portion of its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 418,749 shares of common stock at an aggregate price of $2.50 per share, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $900,000. After closing of the over-allotment, the total number of shares sold by the Company in the offering was 5,218,749.

Concurrently with the underwriting, the Company closed on the transactions contemplated under the exchange agreement with certain investors (the “Investors”) with respect to which Great Point Partners, LLC acts as investment manager. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 3,588,139 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) in exchange for 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase up to 5,250,000 shares of our common stock in the aggregate which were previously issued in conjunction with the sale of the Company’s Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock to the Investors in a December 13, 2013 offering, as well as accrued and unpaid preferred dividends. At September 30, 2016, the 1,975,639 outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into an aggregate of 3,951,278 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The majority of our products currently are marketed through medical distributors, which distribute to more than 6,000 hospitals and to doctors and other healthcare facilities. New distributors are contacted through responses to our advertising in international and domestic medical journals and our presence at domestic and international trade shows.

International sales represented approximately 13.2% and 14.9% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, as compared with 13.5% and 13.3% of total revenues for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2015. Management estimates our products have been sold in more than 150 countries through local dealers coordinated by sales and marketing personnel at our Clearwater, Florida facility. Despite an increase in sales, international sales have felt the downward pressure of a strong dollar coupled with weak oil prices. In the Middle East and some Latin American countries, lower oil prices negatively impact government funded healthcare, and political and civil unrest in some countries make those markets increasingly volatile and unpredictable.

During 2014, we commenced full scale commercialization efforts for J-Plasma. As of September 30, 2016, we had a direct sales force consisting of 14 field-based selling positions, and that, coupled with our independent manufacturer’s representatives, gives us a total sales force of 42. This is a hospital focused selling organization with its focus on the use of J-Plasma for operating room procedures.

The Company continuously reviews and refines its marketing strategies and distribution channels, including new sales channel partnerships, regarding the commercialization of J-Plasma technology as well as initiatives to manage expenses and costs as appropriate for market conditions.

We strongly encourage investors to visit our website: www.boviemedical.com to view the most current news and to review our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Results of Operations –Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

Sales

Sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were 28.6% and 27.8% higher than the same respective periods in 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Core, OEM and J-Plasma sales were 9.1%, 156.7%, and 163.2% higher, respectively than the same nine month period in 2015.

Core sales benefitted from increased demand from existing customers, growth in our animal health business, and new product offerings. OEM grew from a combination of new and expanded contracts. J-Plasma sales growth reflects continued market adoption and our sales channel partnerships.

Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 56.9% and 57.8% of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased as a percentage of sales by approximately 9.0% for the three month period ended September 30, 2016 and by approximately 5.6% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same respective periods in 2015. The increase in gross profit was attributable to product mix driven largely by increased sales of J-Plasma generators and OEM contracts.

We do not anticipate any material impact to our gross profit, material costs, or other costs as a result of the effect of inflation or any material impact of changing prices on net revenue.

Research and Development
