Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Zynex, Inc. reported that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has concluded its investigation and, based on information available, does not intend to recommend an enforcement action against the company. This investigation had been previously disclosed.

The company also reminds investors that its common stock was delisted from Nasdaq following the commencement of voluntary Chapter 11 cases and now trades on the Pink Limited Market under the symbol ZYXIQ. Zynex cautions that trading in its securities during the Chapter 11 process is highly speculative, as the restructuring is expected to cause equity holders to experience a significant loss and the common stock is likely to be cancelled.

Positive

Negative

• Severe equity risk in ongoing Chapter 11: Zynex warns that trading in its securities during the Chapter 11 cases is highly speculative, expects equity holders to experience a significant loss, and notes the likelihood that its common stock will be cancelled in the restructuring.
• Delisting and deregistration of common stock: The company’s shares were suspended from Nasdaq, moved to the Pink Limited Market as ZYXIQ, and a Form 25 has been filed, with deregistration under Section 12(b) to follow after the applicable period.

Insights

Distressed credit and restructuring analyst

SEC probe ends with no action, but Chapter 11 still threatens equity.

Zynex received a letter from the SEC stating it does not intend to recommend an enforcement action, removing one regulatory overhang that had been disclosed in earlier periodic reports. This narrows the set of immediate legal uncertainties around past conduct.

However, the company remains in Chapter 11, and its stock has been delisted from Nasdaq and moved to the Pink Limited Market as ZYXIQ. The company explicitly warns that trading is highly speculative and that equity holders are expected to suffer a significant loss, with a stated likelihood the common stock will be cancelled in the restructuring transactions.

Future outcomes depend on bankruptcy court rulings, confirmation of a plan of reorganization, and the company’s ability to complete restructuring transactions under its support agreement. These steps, and any resulting treatment of existing shares, will be detailed in subsequent court and SEC materials.

On February 18, 2026, Zynex, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) advising the Company that the SEC has concluded its investigation into the Company and that, based on the information as of the date of the Letter, the SEC does not intend to recommend an enforcement action against the Company.

Cautionary Note Regarding the Chapter 11 Cases

The Company cautions that trading in the Company’s securities during the pendency of the previously disclosed Chapter 11 cases of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by the holders of the Company’s securities in the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company expects that its equity holders will experience a significant loss on their investment if the restructuring transactions contemplated by the Chapter 11 Cases (the “Restructuring Transactions”) are implemented.
