Zynex Announces 2010 Year End Results
Zynex, Inc. (OTCBB: ZYXI), a provider of pain management systems and electrotherapy products for medical patients with functional disability, announces a record number of orders and billed patients during 2010, which resulted in $24,085,000 of net revenue for 2010 versus $18,681,000 for 2009. Thomas Sandgaard, CEO, stated “We are pleased with the consistent revenue growth we have been able to generate over the past several years.”
The Company reported a gross profit of $18,883,000 and SG&A expenses of $17,322,000 for 2010, as compared to a gross profit of $14,888,000 and SG&A expenses of $11,074,000 for 2009. During 2010, the Company made specific investments in its infrastructure to expand its domestic and international sales force, improve its billing and reimbursement department and relocate its headquarters to accommodate the significant increase in orders generated by the growing Zynex sales organization. The Company believes that, although these investments increased the 2010 SG&A expenses, they were necessary to yield long-term net revenue and net income growth and to continue to increase the Company’s cash collections. The Company also went through a CFO change in 2010, in which $200,000 of additional transition-related expense was incurred. The Company generated 2010 income from operations of $1,561,000, income before income taxes of $1,335,000 and net income of $350,000, versus income from operations of $3,814,000, income before income taxes of $3,823,000 and net income of $2,382,000 for 2009. The Company’s income tax expense for 2010 reflects a 74% effective tax rate due in part to assessed income tax penalties and interest. The Company is working with the respective taxing authorities to mitigate and abate these penalties and interest and hopes to avoid payment of the full amount of these penalties. The Company does not expect to incur tax penalties and interest at these amounts in future periods.
The Company’s continued focus on strengthening its balance sheet resulted in strong cash collections from customers, which resulted in a cash position of $602,000 as of December 31, 2010 and a revolving line of credit balance of $1,270,000.
Thomas Sandgaard, CEO stated: “2010 was a transformative year for us. The investments made in our sales team has paid off; as we have expanded our geographic reach and have increased the number of orders we are receiving on a monthly basis (as exhibited by our 29% increase in net revenue for 2010). Because of the demand for our products, we had to incur necessary expenses in our infrastructure to continue growth at our historical rates. Our primary expenditures were to sales and marketing and reimbursement and billing. We expect investing in these departments will result in continued sales growth and increased cash collections and will provide us with a long-term infrastructure to support increased sales. We also outgrew our primary operating facility/headquarters and relocated to a larger facility early in 2010. We believe investing in these SG&A expenses in 2010 should result in a revenue growth rate higher than that of our SG&A in future periods. I am pleased that, even with these necessary investments we made during 2010, our gross margins remained strong and we generated income from operations of $1,561,000, income before income taxes of $1,335,000 and net income of $350,000.”
Mr. Sandgaard continued: “Looking ahead, in addition to expanding our geographic reach for our Zynex Medical, electrotherapy subsidiary, we intend to focus our attention on two new very large markets, neurodiagnosis and cardiac monitoring, through our new subsidiaries Zynex NeuroDiagnostics and Zynex Monitoring Solutions. We have already begun executing our business plan for these subsidiaries and expect to see some results in 2011. We believe the combination of our core electrotherapy business (Zynex Medical), with the potential of our new subsidiaries (Zynex NeuroDiagnostics and Zynex Monitoring Solutions) should provide a significant platform for future revenue growth.”
Outlook:
The Company anticipates net revenues of between $30 million and $32 million for 2011 and net income per diluted share of between $0.08 and $0.11 for 2011.
