Zynex Medical's Two-Fold Increase in September Unit Orders Demonstrates Impact of New Sales Force
Thursday October 19, 9:27 am ET
Company Reports Increased Trend For August and September
LITTLETON, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Zynex Medical (OTCBB: ZYNX - News), a provider of pain management systems and electrotherapy products for medical patients with functional disability, has significantly increased the number of monthly unit orders since it expanded its sales force in July and August 2006.
Zynex's monthly unit orders increased to more than 250 during August and more than 300 in September, from an average of approximately 150 units during the first seven months of the year. The company believes this increase in sales and rentals is directly attributed to its recent addition of an experienced sales team skilled in electrotherapy product sales.
"The hiring of additional sales representatives was an important milestone for Zynex Medical," said Thomas Sandgaard, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are pleased, but not surprised, that this expanded team is beginning to make a tremendous impact on our sales and market penetration."
Zynex has not yet finalized its results for the third quarter of 2006, including the impact of increased sales and rentals. Zynex will state these results in the Form 10-QSB for the quarter.
