ZYNEX INC (ZYXI)·Q3 2025 Earnings Summary
Executive Summary
- Q3 2025 revenue fell sharply to $13.36M vs $49.97M in Q3 2024, driven by the TRICARE payment suspension, a $2.8M revenue reduction related to TRICARE, payer denials/delays, and earlier workforce reductions impacting orders and onboarding .
- Gross margin compressed to 60% (from 80% YoY) and the quarter included a non‑cash impairment of $30.74M for Zynex Monitoring Solutions, producing a net loss of $(42.91)M and $(1.42) EPS .
- Liquidity and capital structure are front-and-center: the company entered a 30‑day grace period and did not make the $1.5M interest payment due Nov 17 on $60M convertible notes maturing May 2026; notes are reclassified as current liabilities .
- Management installed a new leadership team, engaged Province to evaluate strategic alternatives, formed a Board Special Committee, and implemented a stricter resupply order confirmation policy to improve compliance and patient experience .
- No Wall Street consensus estimates were available via S&P Global for EPS or revenue; assessment vs. estimates is not possible at this time (S&P Global consensus unavailable).
What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- New management actions and governance enhancements: Province engaged to assess capital raise/recap/restructuring; Special Committee led by Paul Aronzon; Bret Wise appointed Audit Chair, strengthening oversight and compliance .

- Expense reductions: Sales & marketing down 54% YoY to $9.48M; G&A down to $11.82M YoY, reflecting headcount reductions and cost control .
What Went Wrong
- Core revenue deterioration: Q3 net revenue $13.36M vs $49.97M YoY; device revenue $7.06M and supplies $6.30M as TRICARE suspension, payer denials/delays, and prior workforce reductions weighed on orders and completions .
- Profitability and cash flow strain: Net loss $(42.91)M including a $30.74M impairment; adjusted EBITDA $(12.34)M; cash from operations $(6.30)M for Q3; cash ended at $13.26M .
- Balance sheet pressure: $60M converts due May 2026; company entered grace period and did not pay $1.5M interest due Nov 17, indicating liquidity stress and elevating refinancing/restructuring risk .

Management Commentary
- “We are taking decisive steps to ensure Zynex is well-positioned going forward. The engagement of Province and the formation of the Special Committee reflect our commitment to exploring all avenues to create a new future for Zynex.” — CEO Steven Dyson .
- “Under this new policy, we do not process resupply orders unless a patient first confirms their need… our patients are responding positively.” — CEO Steven Dyson on resupply changes .
- CFO reiterated Q3 metrics and grace period decision: “Net revenue was $13.4 million… we did not make a $1.5 million interest payment due November 17, 2025… convertible debt of $60 million is due May 2026” .
Q&A Highlights
- The call consisted of prepared remarks by CEO and CFO; no analyst Q&A was transcribed in the materials provided .
- Management clarified liquidity actions (grace period, debt holder discussions), compliance initiatives (resupply policy), and early signs of order stabilization despite a smaller sales force .
- Guidance remained suspended, and the company emphasized evaluation of strategic alternatives with advisors and the Special Committee .
Estimates Context
- S&P Global consensus estimates for Q3 2025 EPS and revenue were unavailable; as a result, beat/miss vs. Street cannot be assessed at this time.
- Without consensus, the near-term narrative for revisions likely centers on TRICARE reinstatement outcomes, liquidity/debt restructuring progress, cost trajectory, and stabilization of orders .
- Note: S&P Global consensus unavailable at time of analysis; values typically retrieved from S&P Global.
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Liquidity and capital structure are now critical: skipping the $1.5M interest payment and reclassifying converts as current highlight urgency; watch for restructuring or capital raising outcomes led by Province/Special Committee .
- Operational overhaul is underway: resupply confirmation policy, sales productivity initiatives, and VA channel partnership are aimed at improving revenue quality and collections .
- TRICARE remains the single largest near-term revenue overhang; reinstatement timing is uncertain; YoY revenue decline and margin compression underscore sensitivity to payer dynamics .
- Monitoring segment reset: $30.74M impairment signals reassessment of the monitoring assets’ near-term value; follow-on clarity on NiCO pulse oximeter path vs. broader restructuring will be important .
- Cost reductions are material: S&M down 54% YoY; G&A lower YoY; adjusted EBITDA still negative, but order stabilization hints at early traction from productivity efforts .
- Near-term trading catalysts: any update on TRICARE status; debt holder agreements or term sheet visibility; additional governance changes; early VA wins; and Q4 cash trajectory vs. limited cash balance .
- With guidance suspended and no consensus available, focus on qualitative milestones and sequential progress (orders, collections, opex) while monitoring covenant/going-concern disclosures in forthcoming filings .
