ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Feb. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Zynex, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZYXI), an innovative medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and sale of non-invasive medical devices for pain management, stroke rehabilitation, cardiac monitoring and neurological diagnostics, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results Summary:
For the fourth quarter, the Company reported net revenue of $9.3 million, a 15% increase over Q4-2017. Gross margins were 80% in the fourth quarter of 2018 and net income was $2.6 million. For the full year, revenue grew 36% to $31.9 million and net income increased to $9.6 million.
Adjusted EBITDA was $3.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $3.9 million last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA year over year is related to our investment in our sales force to drive current and future order growth and increased personnel in our headquarters primarily related to our billing, quality and regulatory departments. For the full year Adjusted EBITDA was $10.9 million.
The Company generated $9.4 million of cash from operations during 2018, an increase of 14% compared to $8.3 million in 2017. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had working capital of $8.0 million compared to $4.4 million at December 31, 2017. Cash on hand increased to $10.1 million at the end of the fourth quarter.
President and CEO Commentary:
Thomas Sandgaard, CEO said: "We finished 2018 strong with revenue of $9.3 million in the fourth quarter and net income of $2.6 million. Orders grew 35% compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 and were 12% higher than the third quarter of 2018. Orders grew 33% for the full year 2018. Our gross profit margin was 80% for the quarter and 81% for the full year.
We continue to invest in expanding our sales force and have recently increased the pace of adding new sales reps. We expect the addition of new sales reps to have an impact in order and revenue growth this year and going forward.
We continue to advocate for pain patients, and for physicians to prescribe our NexWave technology as the first line of defense in treating chronic and acute pain without side effects. We are dedicated to promoting our technology in an effort to remove patient addiction and other side effects from prescription opioids."
First Quarter 2019 Guidance:
The estimate range for the first quarter revenue is between $8.3 and $8.8 million with Adjusted EBITDA between $2.2 and $2.7 million. The revenue estimate is approximately 21% to 28% above last year's first quarter revenue of $6.9 million. First quarter revenue is historically affected by health insurance deductibles not being met in the beginning of the year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Zynex reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). In addition, the Company is providing in this news release financial information in the form of Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock compensation). Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and lenders in evaluating the overall financial health of the Company in that they allow for greater transparency of additional financial data routinely used by management to evaluate performance. Adjusted EBITDA can be useful for investors or lenders as an indicator of earnings available to service debt. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
