NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT NUMBER OF SHARES AND PER SHARE DATA)
NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010
(1) UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Zynex, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Zynex Medical, Inc., Zynex NeuroDiagnostics Inc. and
Zynex Monitoring Solutions Inc. are collectively referred to as the Company. The unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have
been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
A description of the Companys accounting policies and other financial information is included in
the audited consolidated financial statements as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Amounts as of
December 31, 2010, are derived from those audited consolidated financial statements. These interim
condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction therewith.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company as of September 30, 2011, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for
the nine months ended September 30, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
achieved for a full fiscal year and cannot be used to indicate financial performance for the entire
year.
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
USE OF ESTIMATES
Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The most significant management estimates used in the preparation of the accompanying
consolidated financial statements are associated with the allowances for provider discounts and
uncollectible accounts receivable, the reserve for obsolete and damaged inventory, stock-based
compensation and income taxes.
REVENUE RECOGNITION, AND ALLOWANCES FOR PROVIDER DISCOUNTS AND COLLECTIBILITY
The Company recognizes revenue when each of the following four conditions are met: 1) a contract or
sales arrangement exists; 2) products have been shipped and title has transferred, or rental
services have been rendered; 3) the price of the products or services is fixed or determinable; and
4) collectability is reasonably assured. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue, both rental
and sales, when products have been delivered to the patient and the patients insurance (if the
patient has insurance) has been verified (if any). For medical products that are sold from
inventories consigned at clinic locations, the Company recognizes revenue when it receives notice
that the product has been prescribed and delivered to the patient and the patients insurance
coverage has been verified or preauthorization has been obtained from the insurance company, when
required. Revenue from the rental of products is normally on a month-to-month basis and is
recognized ratably over the products rental period. Revenue from sales to distributors is
recognized when the Company ships its products, which fulfills its order and transfers title. All
revenue is recognized at amounts estimated to be received from customers or third-party providers
using the Companys established rates, net of estimated provider discounts.

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
A significant portion of the Companys revenue is derived, and the related receivables are due,
from insurance companies or other third-party payors. The nature of these receivables within this
industry has typically resulted in long and varying collection cycles. The process of determining
what products will be reimbursed by third-party providers and the amounts that they will reimburse
is complex and depends on conditions and procedures that vary among providers and may change from
time to time. The Company maintains an allowance for provider discounts and records additions to
the allowance to account for the risk of nonpayment. Provider discounts result from reimbursements
from insurance or other third party payors that are less than amounts claimed (billed), where the
amount claimed by the Company exceeds the insurance or other payors usual, customary and
reasonable reimbursement rate. The Company determines the amount of the allowance, and adjusts the
allowance at the end of each reporting period, based on a number of factors, including historical
rates of collection, the aging of the receivables, trends in the historical rates of collection and
current relationships and experience with insurance companies or other third party payors. If the
rate of collection of past-due receivables recorded for previous fiscal periods changes, or if
there is a trend in the rates of collection on those receivables, the Company may be required to
change the rate at which it provides for additions to the allowance. A change in the rates of the
Companys collections can result from a number of factors, including experience and training of
billing personnel, changes in the reimbursement policies or practices of payors, or changes in
industry rates of reimbursement. Accordingly, the provision for provider discounts recorded in the
income statement as a reduction of revenue has fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate
significantly from quarter to quarter.
Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates,
estimates are required to record net revenues and accounts receivable at their net realizable
values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as
additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of third-party billing
arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain products or services from
payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Due to continuing changes in the
health care industry and third-party reimbursement, it is possible that managements estimates
could change in the near term, which could have an impact on results of operations and cash flows.
Any differences between estimated settlements and final determinations are reflected as an increase
or a reduction to revenue in the period when such final determinations are known.
The Company frequently receives refund requests from insurance providers relating to specific
patients and dates of service. Billing and reimbursement disputes are very common in the Companys
industry. For example, on April 26, 2010, the Company received a refund request from Anthem Blue
Cross Blue Shield (Anthem) covering the period from October 1, 2008 (the date of the last
retrospective audit by Anthem) through March 12, 2010. These requests are sometimes related to a
limited number of patients; at other times, they include a significant number of refund claims in a
single request. The Company reviews and evaluates these requests and determines if any refund
request is appropriate. The Company also reviews refund claims when it is rebilling or pursuing
reimbursement from that insurance provider. The Company frequently has significant offsets against
such refund requests, and sometimes amounts are due to the Company in excess of the amounts of
refunds requested by the insurance providers. Therefore, at the time of receipt of such refund
requests, the Company is generally unable to determine if a refund request is valid and should be
accrued.
On September 22, 2011, the Company and Anthem reached a settlement resolving all issues, claims and
disputes between the parties in the amount of $226 (the Settlement). The Settlement provided for
an initial payment of $60 by the Company, which was paid on October 3, 2011, with the remaining
amount payable over a twelve month, interest free period. The Company recorded an accrued liability
of $226 as of September 30, 2011.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company believes it has adequate reserves relating to all known
insurance disputes and refund requests. However, no assurances can be given with respect to such
estimates of reimbursements and offsets or the ultimate outcome of any refund requests.

NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In addition to the allowance for provider discounts, the Company records an allowance for
uncollectible accounts receivable. Uncollectible accounts receivable are primarily a result of the
following: non-payment from patients who have been direct billed for co-payments or deductibles,
lack of appropriate insurance coverage and disallowances of charges by third-party payors. If there
is a change to a material insurance provider contract or policy, application by a provider, a
decline in the economic condition of providers or a significant turnover of Company billing
personnel resulting in diminished collection effectiveness, the estimate of the allowance for
uncollectible accounts receivable may not be adequate and may result in an increase in the future.
At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is
$1,937 and $1,262, respectively.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CREDIT RISK
The Companys financial instruments at September 30, 2011 include cash, accounts receivable,
accounts payable, capital lease obligations and the line of credit balance, for which current
carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. At September 30, 2011 and
December 31, 2010, the Company had no financial assets or liabilities subject to recurring fair
value measurement.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications to the 2010 cash flow statement and balance sheet have been made to
conform to the 2011 presentation, none of which had any effect on cash flows from operating,
investing and financing activities or total assets, total liabilities or stockholders equity.
INVENTORY
Inventories, which primarily represents finished goods, are valued at the lower of cost (average) or market. Finished goods include products
held at the Companys headquarters and at different clinics by health care providers or other third
parties for rental or sale to patients.
The Company monitors inventory for turnover and obsolescence, and records losses for excess and
obsolete inventory as appropriate. At September 30, 2011, the Company had a reserve for obsolete
and damaged inventory of approximately $661 and a reserve of approximately $549 at December 31,
2010. The Company had $2,614 of open purchase commitments at September 30, 2011.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, are as follows:

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No.
2011-07, Health Care Entities (Topic 954): Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue,
Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities,
which requires that certain health care entities change the presentation of their statement of
operations by reclassifying the provision for bad debts associated with patient service revenue
from an operating expense to a deduction from patient service revenue (net of contractual
allowances and discounts). In addition, the amendments also require enhanced disclosure about
policies for recognizing revenue and assessing bad debts and disclosures of qualitative and
quantitative information about changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts. This ASU is
effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. Management currently expects that this ASU will not have a
material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
(3) EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net
income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the number of dilutive
potential common share equivalents during the period, calculated using the treasury-stock method.
The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:
Three months ended | Nine months ended | |||||||||||||||

The effects of potential common stock equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2011
and 2010 (1,116,000 and 1,229,000 shares, respectively) have not been included in the computation
of diluted loss per share as the impact of the potential common shares would be anti-dilutive.

(4) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The Company has reserved 3,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under its 2005 Stock Option
Plan (the Option Plan). Vesting provisions are determined by the Board of Directors. All stock
options under the Option Plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant.
In the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded compensation expense
related to stock options of $61 and $77, respectively. In the nine months ended September 30, 2011
and 2010, the Company recorded compensation expense related to stock options of $207 and $203,
respectively. The stock-based compensation expense was included in selling, general and
administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company granted options to purchase up to 274,000
shares of common stock to employees at exercise prices that ranged from $0.62 to $0.90 per share.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company granted options to purchase up to
374,500 shares of common stock at exercise prices that ranged from $0.41 to $1.06 per share.
The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock option
grants, using the following assumptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Weighted average expected term |
7 years | 6 years | ||||||
Weighted average volatility |
121.3 | % | 111.5 | % | ||||
Weighted average risk-free interest rate |
2.33 | % | 2.73 | % | ||||
Dividend yield |
0 | % | 0 | % |
The weighted average expected term of stock options represents the period of time that the stock
options granted are expected to be outstanding based on historical exercise trends. The weighted
average expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Companys common
stock. The weighted average risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the
expected term of the related stock options. The dividend yield represents the Companys anticipated
cash dividend over the expected term of the stock options. Forfeitures of share-based payment
awards are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if
actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated average forfeiture rate for the nine
months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 was 35%.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $382 of unrecognized compensation expense
related to stock options that will be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately
2.4 years.
(5) INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes is recorded at the end of each interim period based on the Companys
best estimate of its effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year.
The Company paid income taxes of $750 during the first nine months of 2011, which was included in
income taxes payable at December 31, 2010. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, permanent
differences are added back to net income resulting in a higher taxable income for purposes of
calculating income tax expense or benefit. On July 13, 2011, the Company received a letter from the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) denying the Companys request for abatement of penalties and
interest incurred and previously recorded in 2010. The Company is in the process of appealing the
denial and intends to mitigate partial or full payment of these penalties and interest.

(6) LINE OF CREDIT
In February 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to its revolving credit and security
agreement with CapitalSource Bank (the Credit Agreement) to add Zynex Monitoring Solutions Inc.
and Zynex NeuroDiagnostic Inc. to the Credit Agreement and to amend certain financial covenants.
The Company has an asset-based revolving line of credit (RLOC) under the Credit Agreement that
allows borrowing, repayment and re-borrowing, subject to the lesser of the facility cap of $3,500
or 85% of the borrowing base less certain reserved amounts. The borrowing base is generally the
net collectible dollar value of the Companys eligible accounts receivable, as defined. The Credit
Agreement bears interest at a floating rate based on the one-month London interbank offered rate
(LIBOR), divided by the sum of one minus a measure of the aggregate maximum reserve requirement for
Eurocurrency Liabilities for the previous month, as defined, plus 4.0%. Interest is payable
monthly. As of September 30, 2011, the effective interest rate under the Credit Agreement was 10%
(7% interest rate and 3% fees). As of September 30, 2011, $3,380 was outstanding on the Credit
Agreement (the remaining amount available for borrowing was $120).
As of September 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants.
On October 7, 2011, the Company received a commitment letter from a new lender to provide a larger,
more favorable loan facility. Although no assurance can be given that the Company will close the
new loan facility, the Company is currently negotiating and documenting the terms. On October 10,
2011, the Company provided its existing lender notice to terminate the Credit Agreement. The
Company will continue to operate under its existing Credit Agreement until the new agreement is
finalized, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2011.
(7) CONCENTRATIONS
The Company had a receivable from one private health insurance carrier at September 30, 2011 that
made up approximately 30% of the net accounts receivable balance. The same private health insurance
carrier made up approximately 27% of net accounts receivable at December 31, 2010.
(8) LITIGATION
A lawsuit was filed against the Company, its President and Chief Executive Officer and its former
Chief Financial Officer on April 6, 2009, in the United States District Court for the District of
Colorado (Marjorie and David Mishkin v. Zynex, Inc. et al.). On April 9 and 10, 2009, two other
lawsuits were filed in the same court against the same defendants. These lawsuits alleged
substantially the same matters and have been consolidated. On April 19, 2010, the plaintiffs filed
a Consolidated Class Action Complaint (Civil Action No. 09-cv-00780-REB-KLM). The consolidated
lawsuit refers to the April 1, 2009 announcement by the Company that it would restate its unaudited
interim financial statements for the first three quarters of 2008. The lawsuit purports to be a
class action on behalf of purchasers of the Companys securities between May 21, 2008 and March 31,
2009. The lawsuit alleges, among other things, that the defendants violated Section 10 and Rule
10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making intentionally or recklessly untrue
statements of material fact and/or failing to disclose material facts regarding the financial
results and operating conditions for the first three quarters of 2008. The plaintiffs asked for a
determination of class action status, unspecified damages and costs of the legal action.
On May 17, 2010, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss. The plaintiffs filed an Opposition to
Defendants Motion to Dismiss, and on July 5, 2010, the Company filed a Reply in Support of
Defendants Motion to Dismiss. On March 30, 2011, the United States District Court of Colorado
entered an Order denying the Companys motion to dismiss. On November 8, 2011, the parties entered into an agreement
to settle the lawsuit for a payment of $2.5 million to the plaintiff class in exchange for the dismissal with
prejudice of all claims against all defendants in the litigation. The settlement is expected to be fully funded
by insurance and is subject to final approval of the court. The Company cannot predict with certainty the outcome
of the litigation, and if the settlement is not finally approved by the Court, the Company believes that it has
meritorious defenses to the claims in the compliant.

(8) LITIGATION (continued)
On July 28, 2011, a stockholder derivative suit was filed purportedly on behalf of the Company in
the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against the Companys President and
Chief Executive Officer, its former Chief Financial Officer and certain of its directors (Stephen
Hatch, derivatively, on behalf of Zynex Inc. v. Thomas Sandgaard et. al., 11-CV-01964). The
lawsuit alleges breach of fiduciary duty by the Companys officers and directors in connection with
the restatement of the Companys unaudited interim financial statements for the first three
quarters of 2008. The plaintiff is seeking, on behalf of the Company, an undisclosed amount of
damages and equitable relief. On October 11, 2011, the Company and the individual defendants filed
a motion to dismiss, which is currently pending before the Court. On October 18, 2011, certain
individual defendants filed a motion requesting the plaintiff to post a security bond pursuant to
Nevada law.
The Company has notified its directors and officers liability insurer of this claim. At this
time, the Company is not able to determine the likely outcome of the legal matter,
nor can it estimate its potential financial exposure. Litigation is subject to inherent
uncertainties, and if an unfavorable resolution of this matter occurs, the Companys
business, results of operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
The Company is not a party to any other material pending or threatened legal proceedings.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report contains statements that are forward-looking, such as statements relating to
plans for future expansion and other business development activities, as well as the impact of
reimbursement trends, other capital spending and financing sources. Such forward-looking
information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated
results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any
forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These risks include the need for
additional capital in order to grow our business, our ability to engage additional sales
representatives, the need to obtain Federal Drug and Administration (FDA) clearance and
Certificate European (CE) marking of new products, the acceptance of new products as well as
existing products by doctors and hospitals, our dependence on the reimbursement from insurance
companies for products sold or rented to our customers, acceptance of our products by health
insurance providers for reimbursement, larger competitors with greater financial resources, the
need to keep pace with technological changes, our dependence on third-party manufacturers to
produce our goods on time and to our specifications, implementation of our sales strategy including
a strong direct sales force, the uncertain outcome of pending material litigation and other risks
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial
statements, accounting policies and financial notes thereto, included in the Companys 2010 Annual
Report on Form 10-K, which has previously been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company currently has three wholly-owned subsidiaries; Zynex Medical, Inc., Zynex
NeuroDiagnistics Inc. and Zynex Monitoring Solutions Inc. As of September 30, 2011, Zynex
NeuroDiagnostics Inc., formed in April 2010 to develop and market neurological diagnosis products
for hospitals and clinics, and Zynex Monitoring Solutions Inc., formed in April 2010 to develop and
market cardiovascular monitoring for hospitals and clinics, did not have any significant revenues.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Amounts in thousands):
Revenue
Our products may be rented on a monthly basis or purchased. Renters and purchasers are primarily
patients and healthcare insurance providers on behalf of patients. Our products may also be
purchased by dealers. If a patient is covered by health insurance, the third party payor typically
determines whether the patient will rent or purchase a unit depending on the anticipated time
period for its use. If contractually arranged, a rental continues until an amount equal to the
purchase price is paid when we transfer ownership of the product to the patient and cease rental
charges. We also sell consumable supplies, consisting primarily of surface electrodes and
batteries that are used in conjunction with our electrotherapy products.
Revenue is reported net, after adjustments for uncollectable and estimated insurance company
reimbursement deductions. The deductions are known throughout the health care industry as
contractual adjustments whereby the healthcare insurers unilaterally reduce the amount they
reimburse for our products as compared to the rental rates and sales prices charged by us. The
deductions from gross revenue also take into account the estimated denials of claims for our
products placed with patients and other factors which may affect collectability. See Note 2 to the
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report for a more complete
explanation of revenue recognition.

Total net revenue increased $2,770 or 42% to $9,427 for the three months ended September 30, 2011,
from $6,657 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Total net revenue increased $7,181 or
42% to $24,455 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $17,274 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2010.
The increase in total net revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared
to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, was due primarily to a 41% and 37% increase
in prescriptions (orders) for our electrotherapy products, for the respective three and nine month
periods in 2011 as compared to the same periods in 2010, and a 49% and 41% increase in sales of our
recurring consumable supplies (surface electrodes and batteries) for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2010. The increased
orders are directly related to our continued addition of industry-experienced sales
representatives, which benefit us by serving markets that we had not yet penetrated and providing
greater awareness of our products to end users and physicians. As of September 30, 2011, we had
243 field sales employees versus 113 as of September 30, 2010. The increased sales of consumable
supplies are directly related to the increased number of active products currently in the market.
We believe the incremental addition of industry-experienced sales representatives allowed us to
increase our market presence and increase orders during the first nine months of 2011. Orders for
our products lead to (1) rental income, which we anticipate receiving on a recurring basis over the
time patients use our products, (2) direct sales of our products, and (3) corresponding recurring
sales of electrodes and other supplies for our products, all of which are subject to our ability to
collect payment due to contractual adjustments by insurers. Our products are subject to
reimbursement policies of third-party payors, which we may not be able to determine with any
certainty. These third-party payor policies typically dictate whether our products will be
purchased or rented. Therefore, our revenue mix of net rental and net sales revenue may fluctuate
from time to time and may not be an indicator of the overall demand for our products. We are
unable to determine if the reimbursement policy trend towards purchasing or renting our products
will continue or change in the future, as it is based on many market and third party payor factors.
However, we believe that based on the current demand for our products and the recent FDA 510(k)
clearance we received for our next generation electrotherapy device (NexWave), a change in
reimbursement policy will not have a significant impact on our total revenue, as we believe it will
only shift our revenue mix. Shifts in our revenue mix may also have a material impact on our
overall gross margin, as product sales result in a lower gross profit because their cost of sales
is higher than that from rentals (cost of sales associated with rentals is primarily depreciation).
Net Rental Revenue
Net Rental Revenue increased $450 or 22% to $2,482 for the three months ended September 30, 2011,
from $2,032 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Net Rental Revenue increased $738 or
11% to $7,377 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $6,639 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2010.
Net Rental Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 represented 26% and 30%,
respectively, of total net revenue compared to 31% and 38%, respectively, for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in net rental revenue for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2011 is primarily due to the overall increase in orders in 2011, subject to the
varying reimbursement policies of third-party payors for our products.

Table of Contents
Net Sales Revenue
Net Sales Revenue increased $2,320 or 50% to $6,945 for the three months ended September 30, 2011,
from $4,625 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Net Sales Revenue increased $6,443 or
61% to $17,078 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $10,635 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2010.
Net Sales Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 represented 74% and 70%,
respectively, of total net revenue compared to 69% and 62%, respectively, for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2010. Net Sales Revenue is comprised of two primary components: sales of
electrotherapy devices and private labeled distributed products, representing 37% and 32%,
respectively, of total net revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and
sales of recurring device consumables (batteries and electrodes), representing 37% and 38%,
respectively, of total net revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. This
compares to the sale of electrotherapy devices and private labeled distributed products
representing 35% and 24%, respectively, of total net revenue for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2010 and sale of device consumables representing 34% and 38%, respectively, of total
net revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase in Net Sales
Revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to the respective
41% and 37% increase in orders over the same periods in 2010, the current change in third-party
payor reimbursement trend, in favor of purchasing products rather than renting them, and the
increased number of units in the market (previously sold or actively being rented). These
additional units in the market resulted in a 49% and 41%, respective increase of sales of our
recurring consumable supplies over the comparable three and nine month periods for 2010.
Gross Profit
Total gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $7,492 (or 79% of
total net revenue) and $19,349 (or 79% of total net revenue), respectively, compared to $5,231 (or
79% of total net revenue) and $13,630 (or 79% of total net revenue), respectively, in the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Total gross profit percentage for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 remained
consistent with the total gross profit percentage for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2010. Our total gross profit percentage was impacted by two primary items for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2011, the increase in total net revenue and revenue mix. During each
of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 we experienced a 42% increase in total
net revenue over the comparable periods in 2010. The total net revenue increase for the periods
positively impacted our gross profit percentage, as we had incremental net revenue that exceeded
fixed costs in manufacturing. The positive effect on gross profit percentage from our increase in
total net revenue was offset by the change in revenue mix from more products being sold than
rented. Product sales incur higher costs than those from rentals, as the major cost associated
with rentals is depreciation. Net product rentals for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2011 represented 26% and 30%, respectively, of total net revenue as compared to 31% and 38% for
the respective periods in 2010.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A)
Total selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,783 or 39% to $6,389 for the three
months ended September 30, 2011 from $4,606 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Total
selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4,644 or 36% to $17,486 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2011 from $12,842 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Our sales and marketing expenses increased by $1,222 and $2,236, for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2011 over the same periods in 2010, respectively, due to incremental
commissions incurred in the current periods (total orders increased 41% and 37%, respectively, for
the three and nine month periods in 2011 over the same periods in 2010) and the addition of field
sales employees. We incurred additional expenses in our reimbursement and billing department of
$263 and $1,595, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 over
the same periods in 2010, primarily because of additional personnel added to support the increase
in total net revenue for 2011 and to further increase our cash collections from third party payors.
Our reimbursement and billing department relies on personnel, processes and systems to negotiate
and collect from third-party payors. Therefore, we continue to evaluate and invest in this
department, as it is our primary function for cash collections. Improvements in our reimbursement
and billing function may lead to higher revenues, as better negotiations and collection efforts
with third-party payors could result in an increase to our aggregate accounts receivable collection
percentage. We also incurred additional expense in our reimbursement and billing department for
severance related to the retirement of the Companys Vice President of Reimbursement and Billing in
February 2011, reflected in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 expenses (for additional
information refer to Note 13 of the financial statements in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K).
Our general and administrative expenses increased by $290 and $803, respectively, for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2011 over the same periods in 2010, which was primarily the result
of administrative infrastructure, including the addition of regulatory personnel, required to
support the increase in 2011 total net revenue. Engineering and operations increased by $8 for the
three months ended September 30, 2011 over the same period in 2010 and increased by $10 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2011 over the same period in 2010.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) is comprised of interest income, interest expense and other expense.
Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was less than $1 and $1,
respectively, compared to $1 and $5 for the same periods in 2010.
Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $87 and $225,
respectively, compared to $45 and $177 for the same periods in 2010. We increased the use of our
revolving line of credit during the first nine months of 2011 based on working capital needs, which
resulted in a revolving line of credit balance of $3,380 as of September 30, 2011, versus a balance
of $972 as of September 30, 2010. During the first quarter of 2010, we incurred an early
termination fee of $70 related to our prior line of credit, which resulted in higher interest
expense for the period.
Other income (expense) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was zero and $2,
respectively, as compared to zero and ($16) for the same periods in 2010. The other expense of
($16) reported in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily the result of a loss on a
net lease termination.

Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $425 and $676,
respectively, compared to $214 and $270 for the same periods in 2010. The increase in income tax
expense for the 2011 periods is primarily due to the $1,016 and $1,641 income before tax recorded
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 versus $582 and $600 for the same periods in
2010. We also have permanent differences (expenses which are not deductible for income tax
reporting) which create taxable income greater than the income before taxes in our statement of
operations. The taxes on this taxable income cause the income tax expense to be at a higher
effective tax rate than the statutory tax rate. On July 13, 2011, we received a letter from the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) denying our request to abate penalties and interest incurred and
previously recorded in 2010. We are in the process of appealing the denial and intend to mitigate
payment of these penalties and interest, although no assurances can be given.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Line of Credit
In February 2011, we entered into an amendment to our revolving credit and security agreement with
CapitalSource Bank (Credit Agreement). We have an asset-based revolving line of credit (RLOC)
under the Credit Agreement that allows us to borrow, repay and re-borrow, subject to the lesser of
the facility cap of $3,500 or 85% of the borrowing base less certain reserved amounts. The
borrowing base is generally the net collectible dollar value of the Companys eligible accounts
receivable, as defined. The Credit Agreement bears interest at a floating rate based on the
one-month London interbank offered rate (LIBOR), divided by the sum of one minus a measure of the
aggregate maximum reserve requirement for Eurocurrency Liabilities for the previous month, as
defined, plus 4.0%. Interest is payable monthly. As of September 30, 2011, the effective interest
rate under the Credit Agreement was 10% (7% interest rate and 3% fees). As of September 30, 2011,
$3,380 was outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
As of September 30, 2011, we were in compliance with our financial covenants.
On October 7, 2011, we received a commitment letter from a new lender to provide a larger, more
favorable loan facility. Although no assurance can be given that we will close the new loan
facility we are currently negotiating and documenting the terms. On October 10, 2011, we provided
our existing lender notice to terminate our Credit Agreement. We will continue to operate under
our existing Credit Agreement until the new loan agreement is finalized, which is expected to occur
during the fourth quarter of 2011
Limited Liquidity
Cash at September 30, 2011 was $761, compared to cash at December 31, 2010 of $602.
Cash used in operating activities was $775 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to
$825 of cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The primary
uses of cash from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was the result of
decreases in collections on accounts receivable and increases in inventory required to support our
growing revenue, offset by net income and non-cash items. The primary uses of cash from operations
for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was the result of decreases in collections on
accounts receivable and increases to inventory, offset by net income and non-cash items.
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $1,123 compared
to cash used in investing activities of $163 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Cash
used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 primarily represents the
purchase and in-house production of rental products as well as purchases of capital equipment.
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 primarily represents
the purchase and in-house production of rental products and purchases of capital equipment, offset
by proceeds received in a lease termination.
Cash provided by financing activities was $2,057 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011
compared with cash provided by financing activities of $718 for the nine months ended September 30,
2010. The primary financing sources of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were net
borrowings under the Credit Agreement and cash received from the exercise of stock options,
partially offset by payments on capital lease obligations and deferred financing fees. The primary
financing sources of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were net borrowings under
the Credit Agreement, partially offset by payments on capital lease obligations and deferred
financing fees.

We have limited liquidity. Our limited liquidity is primarily a result of (a) the high level of
outstanding accounts receivable because of deferred payment practices of third-party health payors,
(b) the required high levels of inventory kept with sales representatives that are standard in the
electrotherapy industry, (c) the payment of commissions to salespersons based on sales or rental
orders prior to payments for the corresponding product by insurers and whether or not there is a
denial of any payment by an insurer (d) the need for expenditures to continue to enhance the
Companys internal billing processes, (e) the delayed cost recovery inherent in rental transactions
and (f) increased commitments resulting from the premises lease signed in November 2009. As our
business and sales grow, some of these liquidity strains will increase. Limited liquidity may
restrict our ability to carry out our current business plans and curtail our revenue growth.
Our long-term business plan contemplates organic growth in revenues. Therefore, in order to
support a growth in revenue, we require, among other things, funds for the purchases of equipment,
primarily for rental inventory, the payment of commissions to an increasing number of sales
representatives, and the increase in office lease payments (for our new, larger building) to
support the higher level of operations.
We believe that our cash flows from operating activities, borrowing availability under our current
RLOC and proposed new credit facility currently being negotiated with a new lender, will fund our
cash requirements through September 30, 2012.
The availability of the RLOC depends upon our ongoing compliance with covenants, representations
and warranties in the agreement for the RLOC and borrowing base limitations. Although the maximum
amount of the line of credit is $3,500, the amount available for borrowing under the line of credit
is subject to a ceiling based upon eligible receivables and other limitations and may be less than
the maximum amount. As of September 30, 2011, $3,380 was outstanding on the Credit Agreement (the
remaining amount available for borrowing was $120). As of
November 4, 2011, the amount outstanding
on the Credit Agreement was $2,933. As noted above, on October 7, 2011, we provided notice to
terminate our Credit Agreement and intend to enter into a larger, more favorable credit agreement
with a different bank.
There is no assurance that our operations and available borrowings will provide enough cash for
operating requirements or for increases in our inventory of products, as needed, for growth. We
may need to seek external financing through the sale of debt or equity securities, and we are not
certain whether any such financing would be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. Any
additional debt would currently require the approval of CapitalSource Bank.
Our dependence on operating cash flow means that risks involved in our business can significantly
affect our liquidity. Contingencies such as unanticipated shortfalls in revenues or increases in
expenses could affect our projected revenue, cash flows from operations and liquidity which may
force us to curtail our operating plan or impede our growth.
We frequently receive, and expect to continue to receive, refund requests from insurance providers
relating to specific patients and dates of service. Billing and reimbursement disputes are very
common in our industry. For example, as previously disclosed, on April 26, 2010, we received a
refund request from Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield (Anthem) covering the period from October 1,
2008 (the date of the last retrospective audit by Anthem) through March 12, 2010. These requests
are sometimes related to a few patients and other times include a significant number of refund
claims in a single request. We review and evaluate these requests and determine if any refund is
appropriate. We also review claims where we are rebilling or pursuing additional reimbursement from
that insurance provider. We frequently have significant offsets against such refund requests which
may result in amounts that are due to us in excess of the amounts of refunds requested by the
insurance providers. Therefore, at the time of receipt of such refund requests we are generally
unable to determine if a refund request is valid and should be accrued as a liability.
On September 22, 2011, we reached a settlement with Anthem resolving all issues, claims and
disputes between us in the amount of $226 (the Settlement). The Settlement provided for an
initial payment of $60, which was paid on October 3, 2011, with the remaining amount payable over a
twelve month, interest free period. We recorded an accrued liability of $226 as of September 30,
2011.

As of September 30, 2011, we believe we have an adequate allowance for provider discounts relating
to known insurance disputes and refund requests. However, no assurances can be given with respect
to such estimates of reimbursements and offsets or the ultimate outcome of any refund requests.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES:
There are several accounting policies that involve managements judgments and estimates and are
critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies and estimates
affect the reported amounts of revenue and other significant areas in our reported financial
statements.
Please refer to the Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operation located within our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 28, 2011 for the year ended
December 31, 2010, and Note 2 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this
Quarterly Report for further discussion of our Critical Accounting Policies.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
A lawsuit was filed against the Company, its President and Chief Executive Officer and its former
Chief Financial Officer on April 6, 2009, in the United States District Court for the District of
Colorado (Marjorie and David Mishkin v. Zynex, Inc. et al.). On April 9 and 10, 2009, two other
lawsuits were filed in the same court against the same defendants. These lawsuits alleged
substantially the same matters and have been consolidated. On April 19, 2010, plaintiffs filed a
Consolidated Class Action Complaint (Civil Action No. 09-cv-00780-REB-KLM). The consolidated
lawsuit refers to the April 1, 2009 announcement by the Company that it would restate its unaudited
interim financial statements for the first three quarters of 2008. The lawsuit purports to be a
class action on behalf of purchasers of the Companys securities between May 21, 2008 and March 31,
2009. The lawsuit alleges, among other things, that the defendants violated Section 10 and Rule
10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making intentionally or recklessly untrue
statements of material fact and/or failing to disclose material facts regarding the financial
results and operating conditions for the first three quarters of 2008 and other misleading
statements. The plaintiffs ask for a determination of class action status, unspecified damages and
costs of the legal action.
On May 17, 2010, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss. The plaintiffs filed an Opposition to
Defendants Motion to Dismiss, and on July 5, 2010, the Company filed a Reply in Support of
Defendants Motion to Dismiss. On March 30, 2011, the United States District Court of Colorado
entered an Order denying the Companys motion to dismiss. On November 8, 2011, the parties entered into an agreement
to settle the lawsuit for a payment of $2.5 million to the plaintiff class in exchange for the dismissal with
prejudice of all claims against all defendants in the litigation. The settlement is expected to be fully funded
by insurance and is subject to final approval of the court. The Company cannot predict with certainty the outcome
of the litigation, and if the settlement is not finally approved by the Court, the Company believes that it has
meritorious defenses to the claims in the compliant.
On July 28, 2011, a stockholder derivative suit was filed purportedly on behalf of the Company in
the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against the Companys President and
Chief Executive Officer, its former Chief Financial Officer and certain of its directors (Stephen
Hatch, derivatively, on behalf of Zynex Inc. v. Thomas Sandgaard et. al., 11-CV-01964). The
lawsuit alleges breach of fiduciary duty by the Companys officers and directors in connection with
the restatement of the Companys unaudited interim financial statements for the first three
quarters of 2008. The plaintiff is seeking, on behalf of the Company, an undisclosed amount of
damages and equitable relief. On October 11, 2011, the Company and the individual defendants filed
a motion to dismiss, which is currently pending before the Court. On October 18, 2011, certain
individual defendants filed a motion requesting the plaintiff to post a security bond pursuant to
Nevada law.
The Company has notified its directors and officers liability insurer of this claim. At this
time, the Company is not able to determine the likely outcome of the legal matter,
nor can it estimate its potential financial exposure. Litigation is subject to inherent
uncertainties, and if an unfavorable resolution of this matter occurs, the Companys
business, results of operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
The Company is not a party to any other material pending or threatened legal proceedings.
