State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Cutera, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable, without unreasonable effort and expense, to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) for the year ended December 31, 2022 by the March 1, 2023 filing deadline. Additional time is required to complete the Form 10-K, including the financial statements that will be filed as part of the Form 10-K and management’s assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the Company has identified and expects to disclose in the Form 10-K material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting related to ineffective information technology general controls and ineffective inventory count controls.
The Company expects to file the Form 10-K within the fifteen day grace period prescribed by Rule 12b-25.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this 12b-25, other than purely historical information, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the Company’s expectation that it will file the Form 10-K within the time period prescribed by Rule 12b-25. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current, preliminary expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties, which may cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to the risk that the Company is not able to complete its Form 10-K in the time period that it currently expects, and the risk that the Company finds errors in its consolidated financial statements or additional material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, events, or circumstances after the date they were made, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. If the Company updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that it will make additional updates concerning those or other forward-looking statements.
