Source: Streetwise Reports   07/16/2021

Zynex Inc. shares traded 10% higher after the electrotherapy medical device maker reported a 247% YoY growth in orders during Q2/21 and raised the range for its EBITDA estimates in the quarter by $1.2 million.

Medical technology firm Zynex Inc. (ZYXI:NASDAQ), which manufactures and markets non-invasive medical devices for cardiac monitoring, neurological diagnostics, pain management and stroke rehabilitation, yesterday announced “orders and an increased Adjusted EBITDA estimate for Q2/21.”

Zynex’s CEO Thomas Sandgaard led off by stating, “Our order growth in Q2/21 remained strong at 247% year-over-year and 186% for H1/21.”

Sandgaard continued, “The company is confirming its previous revenue estimate for Q2/21 of between $31.0-32.5 million. Q2/21 Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to come in between $4.2-5.2 million, compared to the previous estimate of between $3.0-4.0 million.”

Sandgaard advised that the company presently expects that FY/21 revenue will be between $135.0 and $150.0 million and noted those amounts are about 68-87% higher than the $80.1 million achieved in FY/20. In addition, the company now estimates that FY/21 adjusted EBITDA will come in between $15.0 and $25.0 million, versus the $13.7 million it earned in FY/20.

The firm stated that when it reports its complete Q2/21 earnings in late July, it will provide narrower and more precise data for FY/21 revenue and adjusted EBITDA expectations.

Sandgaard explained that “the company’s prescription-strength NexWave device is a healthy alternative to prescribing opioids as the first line of defense when treating pain.”
