Zynex Inc Confirms Chapter 11 Plan; Plan Sponsor to Receive New Equity

What Happened
Zynex Inc and certain subsidiaries filed for Chapter 11 on December 15, 2025 (Case No. 25-90810, S.D. Tex.). The bankruptcy court entered a Confirmation Order on March 19, 2026 confirming the Company’s Third Amended Combined Disclosure Statement and Joint Plan of Reorganization. The Company expects the Plan’s Effective Date to occur no later than March 31, 2026, subject to satisfaction or waiver of conditions to effectiveness.

Key Details

  • Petition Date: December 15, 2025; Confirmation Order entered March 19, 2026.
  • Equity and ownership: All existing common stock (30,781,021 shares outstanding as of Jan 16, 2026) will be cancelled on the Effective Date; the Plan Sponsor (an entity owned by the DIP Lenders, subject to a management incentive dilution) will receive 100% of the New Common Shares (the Company expects ~1,000 New Common Shares outstanding post-Effective Date, held by the Plan Sponsor).
  • Debt and creditor treatment: DIP Lenders will receive a pro rata share of $10 million in “Takeback Debt” issued at effectiveness; unsecured creditors and convertible noteholders will receive GUC Trust Class B interests (a litigation trust will be established for certain estate claims).
  • Contracts and governance: Executory contracts and unexpired leases will generally be rejected unless assumed; corporate charter/bylaws will be amended and restated at effectiveness.

Why It Matters
For equity investors, the confirmed plan means existing common stock will be cancelled and replaced by a tiny number of new shares owned by the Plan Sponsor—current shareholders should expect a significant loss or total wipeout if the Plan is implemented. Unsecured creditors are being converted into trust interests rather than receiving full cash recoveries, and DIP Lenders gain both equity upside and new debt exposure. The company cautions trading in its securities is highly speculative while the Chapter 11 cases are pending and outcomes, timing, and recoveries remain subject to court approvals and other conditions.
