Competitor Recall Continues To Show Opportunities For ResMed

  • ResMed Inc (NYSE: RMD) posted Q4 sales of $914.7 million, +4% Y/Y (+8% on a constant currency basis), beating the consensus of $912.97 million.

  • Adjusted EPS reached $1.49, up from $1.35 a year ago.

  • The company also increased its quarterly dividend to $0.44 from $0.42 per share.

  • Keybanc reiterates the Overweight rating and price target of $276.

  • The analyst says that after resetting near-term supply chain expectations, visibility appears to be increasing and management's tone seemed more optimistic around key moving pieces to Keybanc's thesis, including:

    • Q4 constant currency growth exceeded Keybanc's expectations, while FX limited more upside.

    • The management expects a sequential improvement in device production volumes through FY23 and an incremental step in masks & accessories growth.

    • Koninklijke Philips NV's (NYSE: PHG) recall issues continue to present opportunities for ResMed, and the company may finally be in a position to address more fully the opportunities presented by PHG's recall.

  • Price Action: RMD shares closed down 0.42% at $239.85 on Friday.
