RESMED INC (RMD)·Q2 2025 Earnings Summary

Executive Summary

  • Q2 FY25 delivered broad-based growth and margin expansion: revenue +10% YoY to $1.28B, non-GAAP gross margin +230 bps to 59.2%, and non-GAAP EPS +29% to $2.43, driven by double‑digit devices and masks growth and cost efficiencies .
  • Operating leverage remained strong: GAAP operating income +52% YoY (prior year included $64.2M restructuring charges), GAAP EPS +65% to $2.34, and operating cash flow of $309M; capital returns included $78M in dividends and $75M of buybacks (307k shares) .
  • Management reiterated margin and cost frameworks into 2H FY25 (gross margin 59–60%, SG&A 18–20% of revenue, R&D 6–7%, tax rate 19–21%); FX is a headwind (Q2 EPS −$0.02, Q3 revenue −$15–20M expected) .
  • Structural demand catalysts (GLP‑1 label expansion; sleep apnea detection in wearables) remain early but supportive; ResMed’s real‑world data now tracks 1.2M patients on GLP‑1 + PAP showing higher therapy starts and resupply over 1–2 years .

What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • Double‑digit top-line and EPS growth with margin expansion: “We achieved 230 basis points of margin expansion in non‑GAAP gross margin… and a 29% increase in non‑GAAP EPS” . Q2 revenue +10% YoY to $1.282B; non‑GAAP EPS $2.43 (+29% YoY) .
  • Strong devices and masks performance across regions: devices +11% and masks +11% globally (constant currency); U.S./Canada/LatAm +12% in both categories; EMEA/APAC devices +9% and masks +7% (cc) .
  • Strategic positioning on tailwinds (GLP‑1s, wearables): “We are now tracking 1.2 million patients… more than 10% more likely to start PAP… >5% higher resupply at two years,” and Apple/Samsung sleep apnea detection to drive steady, durable patient flow .

What Went Wrong

  • FX pressure and near‑term headwinds: Q2 EPS impact −$0.02 from FX; management expects Q3 revenue headwind of $15–20M from currency .
  • Freight/logistics still a watch‑item; margin cadence bounded: gross margin guided to 59–60% in 2H FY25 with swing factors including product mix, freight normalization, FX, and pace of new product introductions .
  • Residential Care Software growth moderated to +8% (from +12% in Q1), with strength at MEDIFOX but slower parts elsewhere (portfolio shift toward higher‑return areas) .

Management Commentary

  • “We achieved 230 basis points of margin expansion in non‑GAAP gross margin year‑over‑year to 59.2%… and a 29% increase in non‑GAAP EPS” (CEO) .
  • “Looking forward, we expect gross margin will be in the range of 59% to 60% in the second half of fiscal year 2025… SG&A 18%–20%… R&D 6%–7%… tax rate 19%–21%” (CFO) .
  • “We are now tracking 1.2 million patients… more than 10% more likely to start PAP… >5% increased propensity for resupply at two years” (CEO) .
  • “No… onetime stocking [in Q2]… we do not believe ResMed will have any impact… on any tariffs… we manufacture in Sydney, Singapore, Atlanta and beyond” (CEO) .
  • “FX… net impact was negative $0.02 on EPS this quarter… expect Q3 revenue headwind… $15–$20 million” (CFO) .

Q&A Highlights

  • FX and outlook: Q2 EPS −$0.02 from FX; gross margin impact roughly neutral going forward; Q3 revenue headwind $15–20M expected from currency .
  • Devices growth drivers: Double‑digit devices growth led by patient flow and demand generation; rePAP opportunity remains; pricing a secondary contributor .
  • Supply chain/tariffs: No Q2 bulk purchases; minimal tariff exposure given manufacturing footprint; potential tariffs could impact competitors more .
  • Capacity and HST scaling: Plan to flex home sleep apnea testing and remote setup to accommodate increased patient flow from wearables/GLP‑1 awareness .
  • SaaS growth mix: Residential Care Software +8%; MEDIFOX strong; portfolio management to focus investment where returns/synergies are highest; double‑digit net operating profit growth targeted .

Estimates Context

  • S&P Global consensus estimates were unavailable at the time of analysis due to data access limits; therefore, we cannot quantify beats/misses versus Street expectations. Values were not retrievable from S&P Global in this session. As a result, comparisons vs. consensus are not presented here.
  • Modeling implications: maintain GM at 59–60% into 2H FY25; incorporate FX headwind (Q3 revenue −$15–20M), SG&A 18–20% and R&D 6–7% of revenue, tax 19–21%; Residential Care Software growth high‑single digits with stronger profitability; steady ~$75M/quarter buybacks and $0.53 dividend .

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Margin framework intact with cost execution: non‑GAAP GM at 59.2% and 2H FY25 guide of 59–60% suggests durable unit economics despite FX/freight variability .
  • Demand tailwinds are real but gradual: GLP‑1 combo therapy and wearables should drive sustained, not step‑function, patient inflow; management’s RWE supports higher starts/resupply over time .
  • U.S. core strong; rePAP and resupply remain levers: U.S./Canada/LatAm devices and masks both +12% YoY; continued Brightree/Snap scale supports masks and adherence KPIs .
  • FX is the near‑term swing factor: Q3 revenue guide includes −$15–20M from currency, and FX shaved ~$0.02 off Q2 EPS; mix, freight, FX will influence progress toward 60% GM .
  • Software growth moderating but higher returns: Residential Care Software +8% with focus on MEDIFOX and profitability; expect portfolio discipline and synergy with resupply initiatives .
  • Capital returns steady: $0.53 quarterly dividend and a plan to repurchase ~$75M of stock per quarter in FY25 underpin TSR while funding R&D and tuck‑ins .

Additional Detail: Non‑GAAP adjustments in Q2 primarily exclude amortization of acquired intangibles; prior‑year GAAP comparisons are flattered by restructuring charges in Q2 FY24; reconciliations provided in the press release .
