GALWAY, Ireland, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT), a global leader in healthcare technology, today announced financial results for its first quarter (Q1) of fiscal year 2027 (FY27), which ended July 31, 2026.

The strength of our portfolio and pipeline gives us confidence in the opportunities ahead."

Q1 GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $1.470 billion and $1.14, respectively, representing increases of 41.4% and 40.7%, respectively.

Guidance

The company today raised its FY27 organic revenue growth and EPS guidance.

"We continue to make targeted investments in innovation, portfolio development, and commercial execution that will support sustainable long-term value creation," said Thierry Piéton, Medtronic chief financial officer. "The combination of strong operating performance and disciplined financial management drove revenue and adjusted EPS ahead of expectations, enabling us to raise our fiscal 2027 guidance."

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to risks and uncertainties, including risks related to competitive factors, difficulties and delays inherent in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical products, government regulation, geopolitical conflicts, changing global trade policies, material acquisition and divestiture transactions, general economic conditions, and other risks and uncertainties described in the company's periodic reports on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission including the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K of the company. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words or expressions, such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "looking ahead," "may," "plan," "possible," "potential," "project," "should," "going to," "will," and similar words or expressions, the negative or plural of such words or expressions and other comparable terminology. Actual results may differ materially from anticipated results. Medtronic does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements or any of the information contained in this press release, including to reflect future events or circumstances.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release contains guidance and financial measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, and organic revenue, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. Certain information in this press release also includes calculations or figures that have been prepared internally and have not been reviewed or audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. Use of different methods for preparing, calculating or presenting information may lead to differences and such differences may be material.

Medtronic management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding the company's underlying operational performance and trends and to facilitate comparisons with the performance of other companies in the med tech industry. Non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS exclude the effect of certain charges or gains that contribute to or reduce earnings but that result from transactions or events that management believes may or may not recur with similar materiality or impact to operations in future periods (Non-GAAP Adjustments). Medtronic generally uses non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's review of the operational performance of the company and as a basis for strategic planning. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and investors are cautioned that Medtronic may calculate non-GAAP financial measures in a way that is different from other companies. Management strongly encourages investors to review the company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial schedules accompanying this press release.

Medtronic calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For instance, forward-looking organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, revenue in the current and prior year reported as "Other", as well as significant acquisitions, divestitures, or other significant discrete items. Forward-looking diluted non-GAAP EPS guidance also excludes other potential charges or gains that would be recorded as Non-GAAP Adjustments to earnings during the fiscal year. Medtronic does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP EPS guidance to projected GAAP EPS guidance because the combined impact and timing of recognition of these potential charges or gains is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and is unavailable without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of financial performance.

FINANCIAL COMPARISONS

References to quarterly or annual figures increasing, decreasing, or remaining flat are in comparison to fiscal year 2026, and references to sequential changes are in comparison to the prior fiscal quarter. Unless stated otherwise, quarterly and annual rates and ranges are given on an organic basis. References to organic revenue growth exclude the impact of foreign currency, first quarter revenue in the current and prior year reported as "Other", as well as significant acquisitions, divestitures, or other significant discrete items.

TRANSACTION DETAILS

The separation of our Diabetes business has involved and is expected to be completed through a series of capital markets transactions, which may include a spin-off, split-off, offering, or combination thereof. While a split-off is the company's current preferred separation structure, a final decision has not been reached at this time.

(1)

The data in this schedule has been intentionally rounded to the nearest million or $0.01 for EPS figures, and, therefore, may not sum.

(2)

The charges primarily relate to employee termination benefits, facility related and contract termination costs, and asset write offs.

(3)

The charges primarily include business combination costs, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, and exit of business-related charges. Exit of business-related charges primarily relate to the impending separation of the Diabetes Business and costs associated with the Company's June 2021 decision to stop the distribution and sale of the Medtronic HVAD System.

(4)

We exclude unrealized and realized gains and losses on our minority investments as we do not believe that these components of income or expense have a direct correlation to our ongoing or future business operations.

(5)

The net charges for the three months ended July 31, 2026 and July 25, 2025, primarily relate to amortization of previously established deferred tax assets arising from previous intercompany intellectual property transactions. The net charges for the three months ended July 31, 2026, were partially offset by the release of reserves for uncertain tax positions on prior period intercompany transactions.

(6)

The Company recognized $45 million of accelerated amortization on certain intangible assets within the Cardiovascular Portfolio.

(7)

Reflects adjustments to the Company's Italian payback accruals resulting from the June 30, 2025 Legislative Decree published by the Italian government for years 2015 to 2018.
