ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Oct. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Zynex, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZYXI), an innovative medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and sale of non-invasive medical devices for pain management, rehabilitation, and patient monitoring, has reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Key Third Quarter and 2023 Highlights and Business Update

  • Q3 2023 revenue increased 20% year-over-year to $49.9 million.
  • Net income of $3.6 million; Diluted EPS $0.10.
  • Orders increased 39% year-over-year; highest number of orders in Company history for the 6th consecutive quarter.
  • Cash from operations of $8.9 million in the third quarter; highest in Company history.
  • Added three new therapy products centered around pain management: Zynex Pro Thoracic Lumbar Sacral Orthosis (“TLSO”), Zynex Pro Wrist, and Zynex Cryoheat.

Management Commentary

“The third quarter was highlighted by increasing revenue and cash flow momentum driven by our sixth straight quarter of record-high order numbers,” said Thomas Sandgaard, President and CEO of Zynex. “As we continue to develop the next generation of patient monitoring equipment, our pain management division delivered a 39% improvement in orders year-over-year and celebrated our 1 millionth patient treated since founding the company. Our continued profitability and record positive cash flow allowed us to announce an additional $10 million share repurchase plan.

“The pain management division also introduced three new therapy products in the third quarter, building on our holistic, non-invasive approach to pain management. The new products include Zynex Pro Thoracic Lumbar Sacral Orthosis (“TLSO”), a dual-purpose back brace for the mid and lower spine; Zynex Pro Wrist, a wrist brace for a broad spectrum of wrist-related pain management including carpal tunnel syndrome; and Zynex Cryoheat, a localized cold or hot fluid therapy system for home or hospital use. We continue to focus on profitable growth by adding products to our suite in complementary ways that combine with our industry-leading prescription strength pain management device, the NexWave.

“For our pre-revenue hospital monitoring products division, we have three additional products in the pipeline including a laser-based pulse oximeter, NiCO™; a monitor for early detection of sepsis; and a non-invasive, laser-based monitor of total hemoglobin levels, HemeOx™.

“We continue to expand our direct salesforce and continue to improve sales rep productivity which delivers accelerating and recurring revenue. In tandem we focused on ramping our hospital monitoring division which represents a large and growing market opportunity. We look forward to additional updates in the months to come as we work to build long term value for our shareholders,” concluded Sandgaard.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Net revenue was $49.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of 20% from $41.5 million in the prior year quarter. The growth in net revenue is primarily related to a 39% growth in device orders, which resulted from an increased customer base.

Gross profit in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, increased to $40.4 million, or 81% of revenue, as compared to $33.1 million or 80% of revenue, in 2022.

Sales and marketing expenses were $22.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $17.2 million in the prior year period.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $12.7 million, versus $9.4 million in the prior year period.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023, totaled $3.6 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, in the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $7.3 million, as compared to $8.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had working capital of $83.1 million. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $52.4 million at the end of the third quarter. Cash provided by operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was a record high $8.9 million. Cash provided by operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $11.6 million compared to $9.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Company continued its latest stock buyback by repurchasing $14.9 million of its common stock during the third quarter and has repurchased $51.0 million during the last eighteen months.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Guidance

Fourth quarter 2023 revenue is estimated to be $52.5-$57.5 million, an increase of approximately 13% from Q4 2022. Fourth quarter Diluted EPS is estimated to be $0.17-$0.22.

2023 estimates are revenue of $189.5-$194.5 million and Diluted EPS of $0.40-$0.45 per share. The revenue range is based on best estimates of labor market conditions and sales rep productivity. Diluted EPS is impacted by increased operating expenses to support ZMS as the Laser-based Pulse Oximetry products are prepared for FDA submission and the fluid monitor is readied for the market.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Zynex reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). In addition, the Company is providing in this news release financial information in the form of Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, other income/expense, stock compensation, restructuring and non-cash lease charges). Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and lenders in evaluating the overall financial health of the Company in that they allow for greater transparency of additional financial data routinely used by management to evaluate performance. Adjusted EBITDA can be useful for investors or lenders as an indicator of available earnings. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
