Medtronic plc reported a solid start to fiscal 2025 (QQ1 2025) with revenue of $7.915B and a resilient margin profile despite currency headwinds. GAAP/net income stood at $1.042B with diluted EPS of $0.80, while adjusted metrics showed gross margin of 65.9% (up 30 bps on a constant-currency basis) and adjusted operating margin of 24.4%. Management highlighted a broad-based strength across high-growth and established franchises, led by Diabetes, Neuromodulation, and Cardiac Ablation Solutions (CAS) driven by Pulse Field Ablation (PFA) and Sphere-9, as well as TAVR/FX Plus in Structural Heart. The company raised its FY25 organic revenue growth guidance to 4.5–5% and signaled ongoing margin expansion aided by pricing, cost-out programs, and efficiency initiatives. A key driver of strategic value continues to be product innovation and capacity investments (PulseSelect PFA, Sphere-9, Evolut FX Plus), alongside a notable partnership with Abbott to bring integrated CGM into its AID/SMART MDI ecosystems. Management also reaffirmed commitment to capital allocation, including opportunistic share repurchases (~$4B over the last two quarters) and tuck-in M&A as a core growth vector. The quarter reinforces Medtronic’s diversified growth framework, with a roughly mid-single-digit top-line trajectory in the near term and a pathway to higher earnings power into the back half of the year as currency headwinds recede and new product cycles gain scale.
