Taylor has a longstanding track record of successfully leading and growing companies in the healthcare industry, and we are confident he is the right leader to help Cutera accelerate our momentum, sharpen our execution and create value for our stockholders.”

Mr. Harris said, “I am honored to take on the role of Chief Executive Officer during such an important time for the Company. For a number of years, I’ve been impressed with Cutera’s commitment to customers, quality, and innovation. Over the past month serving on Cutera’s Board of Directors, I have seen firsthand the tremendous work the team is doing, and I believe that Cutera’s core business, the exciting AviClear opportunity, and the company’s new product engine provide a strong foundation for long-term success. I look forward to working alongside the talented and committed team at Cutera to drive growth and profitability, expand our innovative portfolio, and deliver amazing results for our customers and their patients.”

Mr. Cameron continued, “On behalf of the Board, I’d like to thank Sheila for her leadership and steady hand during a critical period in the Company’s history. Over the last few months, she has worked hard to keep the organization focused on delivering for our customers and advancing key strategic priorities. We would also like to thank all Cutera employees for their patience while the Board conducted its CEO search process.”

Ms. Hopkins, Interim CEO, said, “It has been a privilege to serve as Cutera’s Interim CEO. In the time I’ve been in this role, I’ve gained even deeper insight into Cutera’s business, people and strategy.
