This Form SD of Apyx Medical Corporation (the “Company” or “APYX”) for calendar year 2024 is being filed in accordance with Rule 13p-1 (“Rule 13p-1”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Rule 13p-1 requires disclosure of certain information when a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products.  The specified minerals are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten (the “Conflict Minerals”).  The “Covered Countries” for purposes of Rule 13p-1 are the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola. APYX manufactures, or contracts to manufacture, products for which Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. APYX has conducted a good faith, reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the Conflict Minerals used by APYX for the functionality or production of APYX’s products.  This good faith, reasonable country of origin inquiry was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals used by APYX in the manufacture of its products originated in the Covered Countries.  Based on this reasonable country of origin inquiry, the Company is unable to determine whether Conflict Minerals necessary to the functionality or production of Company products manufactured in calendar year 2024 originated in the Covered Countries.
