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.
