Management Comments

"The first quarter of 2020 started on a positive note as we gained momentum following the launches of our unique hands-free devices, Evolve and Evoke, along with continued demand across our product portfolio," commented Moshe Mizrahy, CEO of InMode. "However, in the beginning of March, global restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic led to a standstill in sales in our industry. Despite this global economic lull, we continued to strengthen our infrastructure and product portfolio through research and development investments, furthering of regulatory processes for devices and indications worldwide, and the establishment of a wholly owned subsidiary for sales and marketing in France. Additionally, we have strengthened our supply chain in an effort to ensure stability in manufacturing capacity and inventory."

"We continued to hire experienced talent and established a virtual training and demonstration center for our customers and staff through the InMode University platform," said Mr. Shakil Lakhani, President of InMode North America.

"We remain confident in InMode's current market position and ability to further our technological innovation. We believe that our breakthrough devices, Evolve and Evoke, are well-positioned to attract both physicians and patients post-crisis, as the demand for minimally invasive and hands-free alternatives will grow, opposed to historic post-crisis declines seen with invasive surgical procedures. Therefore, we believe that these technologies will be significant growth drivers in the future and will become the standard of care for facial and body reshaping in the future," added Mr. Lakhani.

"In addition, we remain confident in InMode's current and future financial position given our market leadership, innovative approach and strong balance sheet," said Mr. Yair Malca, CFO of InMode.

COVID-19 Impact on 2020

Although the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a temporary halt in elective aesthetic surgical procedures, InMode believes that this standstill will gradually end within the coming month or two. Our assumption is based on the fact that the pandemic has reached the controlled phase:

• There is a decrease in new cases worldwide and this downward trend is continuing on a daily basis
• Gradual return to work has already started
• Elective surgeries are gradually being permitted in the USA and other countries

Based on these assumptions, InMode believes that starting the month of June 2020 and throughout the third quarter of 2020 – InMode's business will gradually begin to pick up and return to normal. Therefore, InMode has remained positive with regards to its business prospects and has decided not to downsize the company or lay off any of its employees. On the contrary – we hired  new direct salespeople around the world, and have taken advantage of the time during which we were forced to temporarily stop sales activity in order to live stream visual training to doctors and the sales team, accelerate development of platforms that fit the new aesthetic surgical market needs post COVID-19 and prepare our infrastructure for the days after.

In addition, although we have been approached by credit providers to apply for the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), which would enable us to get funds from the government, we decided, unlike other companies in our industry, not to take, and to leave the PPP money to stimulate the U.S economy. We believe that this is our social responsibility to our customers and vendors.

We have also developed a sales program, which we will initiate after COVID-19 subsides. This program includes packages that will motivate doctors to purchase InMode platforms as part of the recovery plan for their clinics.

Throughout this crisis we have taken good care of our employees worldwide and have followed local and regional guidelines to prioritize the health and welfare of our employees and customers.

Since visibility of the future is low, InMode management decided not to give an updated detailed guidance for 2020. Currently, based on the assumptions above - our revenue outlook for the full year of 2020 will not be significantly lower than our revenue in 2019, and we will maintain a gross margin of 84%-86%.

This outlook is not a guarantee of future performance and stockholders should not rely on such forward-looking statements. See "Forward-Looking Statements" for additional information.

First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2020 were $40.4 million, an increase of 32% as compared to the first quarter in 2019. This revenue represents two months of normal activity and almost no activity in March (during which the world came to an economic standstill). Additionally, InMode continued to gain traction in international markets, with international revenue growing 49% year-over-year.

Gross margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 85% compared to a gross margin of 86% in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in cost of materials due to the impact of COVID-19.

GAAP operating margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 15%, compared to 33% in the first quarter of 2019. *Non-GAAP operating margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 30%, compared to 34% in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to the fact that the sales cycle in March was interrupted by COVID-19, and as a result - the marketing expenditure did not result in sales at the quarter's end.

InMode reported GAAP net income attributable to InMode Ltd. of $6.4 million, or $0.15 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2020. This is compared with GAAP net income attributable to InMode Ltd. of $10.1 million, or $ 0.28 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019. On a *non-GAAP basis, InMode reported net income attributable to InMode Ltd. of $12.6 million, or $0.3 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $10.5 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019.

*Please refer to "Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for important information about non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation between U.S. GAAP and non-GAAP Statement of Income is provided following the financial statements that are included in this release. Non-GAAP results exclude stock-based compensation and related tax adjustments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to InMode's operating results presented in accordance with GAAP, this release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share and non-GAAP operating margin. Because these measures are used in InMode's internal analysis of financial and operating performance, management believes that they provide greater transparency to investors of management's view of InMode's economic performance. Management also believes the presentation of these measures, when analyzed in conjunction with InMode's GAAP operating results, allows investors to more effectively evaluate and compare the performance of InMode to that of its peers, although InMode's presentation of its non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. Schedules reconciling each of these non-GAAP financial measures are provided as a supplement to this release. We have not provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures included in "COVID-19 Impact on 2020" to the corresponding GAAP financial measure on a forward-looking basis due to the potential variability, limited visibility and unpredictability.
