- SE also drove installed base growth of the Hugo™ robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) system; received Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from U.S. FDA to begin the U.S. clinical trial for Hugo™ RAS system for Hernia procedures
- PMRI results driven by low-single digit growth in Patient Monitoring, with double-digit growth in Nellcor™ pulse oximetry monitor sales; Respiratory Interventions results were flat, with high-single digit growth in Airways offset by decreases in Ventilator sales
Diabetes
Diabetes revenue of $610 million increased 9.7% as reported and 6.7% organic.
- Non-U.S. Developed Markets grew mid-teens on continued MiniMed™ 780G system adoption and increased CGM attachment rates on the strength of the Guardian™ 4 sensor

- Received CE Mark and began phased launch for Simplera™ standalone CGM
Guidance
The company today raised its FY24 revenue growth and EPS guidance.
The company increased its FY24 organic revenue growth guidance to 4.75% versus the prior 4.5%. The organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of foreign currency and revenue related to certain businesses reported as Other. Including Other revenue and the impact of foreign currency, if foreign currency exchange rates as of the beginning of November hold, FY24 revenue growth on a reported basis would be approximately 2.6%.
The company increased its FY24 diluted non-GAAP EPS guidance from the prior range of $5.08 to $5.16 to the new range of $5.13 to $5.19, a 4 cent increase at the midpoint. Given the change in foreign currency exchange rates over the past quarter, the foreign exchange impact on FY24 diluted non-GAAP EPS is now estimated to be 2 cents more unfavorable in the second half and is estimated to be a 6% unfavorable impact for the full year.
“Overall, it was another good quarter as we delivered revenue, margins, and earnings ahead of expectations. Combining our second quarter outperformance with our updated tax and foreign currency estimates, we’re raising our full year organic revenue growth and EPS guidance,” said Karen Parkhill, Medtronic EVP & chief financial officer. “Based on the changes we’ve made to our operating model, incentives, and capital allocation, among other drivers, we’ve positioned the company to deliver consistent mid-single digit growth on the top line. As we move ahead, translating this durable revenue growth into durable earnings power remains a top priority.”
