Cynosure Announces Second-Quarter 2015 Results;

Record Revenue of $83.7 Million, Up 15 Percent from

Prior Year

Second-Quarter Highlights:

• North America product revenue growth of 47 percent

• Non-GAAP earnings of $0.30 per share; GAAP earnings of $0.24 per share

• Cash and investments of $145.2 million at June 30, 2015

• Received FDA clearances to market SculpSure™ for non-invasive fat reduction

Westford, MA – July 28, 2015 – Cynosure, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYNO), which designs, manufactures and markets medical devices for aesthetic procedures and precision surgical applications worldwide, today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

“Our North American business posted another quarter of double-digit growth, as revenues increased 47 percent year-over-year and selling prices remained stable,” said Cynosure Chief Executive Officer Michael Davin. “While our international results reflected the economic slowdowns in Europe and China, as well as unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, our solid domestic performance enabled us to generate 15 percent overall revenue growth.”

“We continued to allocate capital to the long-term growth of our business, with sales and marketing investments in the MonaLisa Touch™ laser for vaginal health and in the upcoming planned launch of SculpSure™, our new hyperthermic laser system for non-invasive lipolysis,” Davin said. “In its first six months in the U.S. market, MonaLisa Touch experienced a high level of demand, and we are pleased with the progress of the launch. Following our recent receipt of FDA 510(k) marketing clearances for SculpSure, we are laying the foundation for the U.S. introduction later this year of this first-of-its-kind aesthetic device for the non-invasive reduction of fat from the flanks and abdomen.”

“We also are creating new revenue streams for established products such as PicoSure^®, our proprietary technology to remove tattoos and benign pigmented lesions,” Davin said. “In June, we began shipping initial revenue units of our new 532 nm laser delivery system,

giving us coverage across the full color spectrum of tattoo inks. Subject to receiving FDA clearance, which we anticipate by the end of this year, we plan to introduce a third upgradable wavelength for PicoSure: a 1064 nm laser delivery system for skin rejuvenation with the FOCUS™ microlens array.”

Second-Quarter 2015 Financial Results

Revenue was $83.7 million, an increase of 15 percent from the prior-year period. Product revenue in North America grew 47 percent to $40.7 million. International product revenue was $28.7 million, down 10 percent year-over-year, partially as a result of a $1.9 million decrease due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates. On a constant currency basis, international product revenue decreased 4 percent from the second quarter of 2014. Parts, accessories, service and royalty revenues increased 10 percent to $14.3 million.

Gross margin on a GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2015 was 56.6 percent, compared with 56.1 percent for the same period in 2014. On an adjusted basis, excluding non-cash charges related to the amortization of intangibles, gross margin was 58.4 percent in the second quarter of 2015, compared with 58.0 percent in the same period a year earlier.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2015 increased 16 percent to $39.7 million from $34.3 million in the same period in 2014, primarily reflecting increased investments in sales and marketing associated with new products and the hiring of a specialty sales force for MonaLisa Touch in the first quarter of 2015.

Operating income was $7.6 million, up 19 percent year-over-year. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding acquisition costs and amortization of intangibles, income from operations was $9.9 million, compared with $10.3 million for the second quarter of 2014.

On a GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $5.4 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared with net income of $4.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the prior-year period.

Excluding acquisition costs, non-cash unrealized foreign exchange measurement gains, and amortization of intangibles, non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $6.7 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared with $7.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014.

Cash and investments at June 30, 2015 were $145.2 million, compared with $133.4 million at year-end 2014.

Business Outlook

“Looking to the second half of 2015, we expect to continue leveraging our strong product portfolio, technology leadership and direct distribution to drive toward achieving our strategic objectives,” Davin said. “We plan to make additional investments to further accelerate technology innovation and support the commercialization of new products, such as SculpSure, which is on schedule to launch late this year. Internationally, we plan to seek additional regulatory clearances and pursue other growth initiatives that position us as a leader in key markets.”

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Cynosure uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release exclude costs associated with the acquisitions and amortization of intangible assets acquired, as well as unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. This exclusion may be different from, and therefore not comparable to, similar measures used by other companies.

Cynosure’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding the acquisition-related costs, amortization and foreign exchange costs that may not be indicative of our core business operating results. Cynosure believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Cynosure’s performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to Cynosure’s historical performance and our competitors’ operating results. Cynosure believes that the non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in our financial and operational decision making.
