The company raised its FY25 organic revenue growth guidance to 4.5% to 5% versus the prior range of 4% to 5%. The organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of foreign currency and revenue reported as Other. Including Other revenue and the impact of foreign currency exchange, if recent foreign currency exchange rates hold, FY25 revenue growth on an adjusted basis would be in the range of 3.4% to 4.3%.
The company raised its FY25 diluted non-GAAP EPS guidance to the new range of $5.42 to $5.50 versus the prior $5.40 to $5.50. This includes an estimated -5% impact from foreign currency exchange based on recent rates, unchanged from the prior guidance. The company’s guidance represents FY25 diluted non-GAAP EPS growth in the range of 4 to 6%.
“Overall revenue outperformance flowed through to the bottom line, with adjusted EPS ahead of expectations,” said Gary Corona, Medtronic interim chief financial officer. “We’re raising our guidance today as we expect to sustain growth from new product introductions, continue to make the investments to support those launches, and deliver on our commitment to restore earnings power.”
