On February 21, 2019, White Diamond Research released a report alleging
that a clinical study on the use of the Company’s J-Plasma for dermal
resurfacing may have missed its endpoints.

On this news, shares of Apyx fell $2.10 per share, or nearly 25%, to
close at $6.40 on February 21, 2019, thereby injuring investors.

Then, on April 1, 2019, Apyx announced that it had withdrawn its 510(k)
application for the use of J-Plasma for dermal resurfacing, citing
concerns raised by the FDA. Apyx revealed that the FDA had questioned
the device’s clinical results, which differed greatly from two of the
investigational centers used in the study, as well as the potential
impact certain protocol deviations. Moreover, Apyx disclosed that the
clinical study did not meet its primary efficacy endpoint.

On this news, shares of Apyx fell $2.49 per share, or over 35%, to close
at $4.46 on April 2, 2019, thereby injuring investors further.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the
Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as
well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s
business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false
and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) that the
clinical study on the use of J-Plasma for dermal resurfacing had not met
its primary efficacy endpoint; (2) that, as a result, the clinical study
did not support the Company’s application for regulatory clearance; (3)
that, as a result, the Company was unlikely to receive regulatory
approval of J-Plasma for dermal resurfacing; and (4) that, as a result
of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s
business, operations, and prospects were materially false and/or
misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
