Very happy with todays quarterly results from Resmed. Very good growth in devices, consumables, market share and cost improvements too. Revenue up 11%, gross margins up 4%, EPS up 42%, albeit they were comping a flatish quarter last year.

What was also really good to hear was how CEO Mick Farrell talked about the business and the future. Great commentary around helping patients, improving lives, embracing rather than talking down competition, capital allocation thinking, acknowledging the great work of the team etc. These are excellent qualities for a leader to have and there is not a lot of hubris coming through despite their dominant market position.

There was also really positive data about how GLP 1 drugs are proving to be a tailwind rather a headwind as first feared. And also some good signs for what's happening with sleep apnea and wearables that are creating demand.

If you own RMD or have it on your watchlist, this call is well worth a listen and results also here - https://event.choruscall.com/mediaframe/webcast.html?webcastid=AyogqgdH

I dont like to get too excited about quarterlies and over extrapolate any nascent trends, especially compared to a poor comp.

the significant changes for me were they guided on GP 59-60% vrs the 58-59%, i had pencilled in, the CFO guides to zero net interest expense for fy25 compared to $55m last year, RMD does throw different stuff in this line like FX and other one offs, but it is a big delta, plus some better cost control. these all lead to a better fy25 number than expected for me +6-7%. Everything running their way on this one. long may it last

ResMed = monster with fangs.

Putting more distance between it and the rest of my portfolio, and I welcome it :)

@thunderhead It is good to get a win and a quality one at that.

Yes indeed. Wins are hard-earned at the best of times.

I am coming up to 10 years of holding it, and it is my largest individual position by some distance now that Altium has left our exchange. Long may it continue!

Fantastic results @Karmast. Both %GM expansion and operating leverage are impressive, which shows the restructure is delivering as intended. Such a well run global leader!
