  1. In order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed, excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we provide certain financial information on a “constant currency” basis, which is in addition to the actual financial information presented. In order to calculate our constant currency information, we translate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period. However, constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Discussion of Fourth Quarter Results

All comparisons are to the prior year period unless otherwise noted

  • Revenue grew by 10 percent on a constant currency basis, driven by increased demand for our sleep devices and masks portfolio, as well as strong growth across our Software as a Service business.
    • Revenue in the U.S., Canada, and Latin America, excluding Software as a Service, grew by 10 percent.
    • Revenue in Europe, Asia, and other markets, excluding Software as a Service, grew by 8 percent on a constant currency basis.
    • Software as a Service revenue increased by 10 percent, reflecting continued organic growth in our SaaS portfolio.
  • Gross margin increased by 350 basis points mainly due to reduced freight and manufacturing cost improvements, an increase in average selling prices as well as favorable product mix. Non-GAAP gross margin increased by 330 basis points due to the same factors.
  • Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by 1 percent on a constant currency basis. SG&A expenses improved to 19.8 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared with 21.5 percent in the same period of the prior year. The modest increase in SG&A expenses reflects cost management initiatives implemented during the December quarter.
  • Income from operations increased by 38 percent, and non-GAAP income from operations increased by 30 percent.
  • Net income for the quarter was $292 million and diluted earnings per share was $1.98. Non-GAAP net income increased by 30 percent to $306 million, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share increased by 30 percent to $2.08, predominantly attributable to strong sales and gross margin improvement as well as modest growth in operating expenses.
  • Operating cash flow for the quarter was $440 million, compared to net income in the current quarter of $292 million and non-GAAP net income of $306 million.
  • During the quarter, we paid $71 million in dividends and repurchased 232,000 shares for consideration of $50 million as part of our ongoing capital management.

Other Business and Operational Highlights

  • Supported the presentation of 39 clinical research abstracts at the annual American Thoracic Society (26 abstracts) and SLEEP (13 abstracts) conferences, demonstrating the breadth and depth of ResMed’s leadership in generating and analyzing real-world evidence in support of better clinical and patient outcomes. Research focused on a variety of topics including the increasing prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), the economic benefits of treating OSA, and the relationship between OSA and depression in women.

Dividend program

The ResMed board of directors today declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.53 per share. The dividend will have a record date of August 15, 2024, payable on September 19, 2024. The dividend will be paid in U.S. currency to holders of ResMed’s common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Holders of CHESS Depositary Interests (“CDIs”) trading on the Australian Securities Exchange will receive an equivalent amount in Australian currency, based on the exchange rate on the record date, and reflecting the 10:1 ratio between CDIs and NYSE shares. The ex-dividend date will be August 14, 2024, for common stockholders and for CDI holders. ResMed has received a waiver from the ASX’s settlement operating rules, which will allow ResMed to defer processing conversions between its common stock and CDI registers from August 14, 2024, through August 15, 2024, inclusive.

  1. ResMed adjusts for the impact of the amortization of acquired intangibles, restructuring expenses, field safety notification expenses, acquisition-related expenses, gain on insurance recoveries, and associated tax effects from their evaluation of ongoing operations, and believes that investors benefit from adjusting these items to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of current operating performance.

ResMed believes that non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is an additional measure of performance that investors can use to compare operating results between reporting periods. ResMed uses non-GAAP information internally in planning, forecasting, and evaluating the results of operations in the current period and in comparing it to past periods. ResMed believes this information provides investors better insight when evaluating ResMed’s performance from core operations and provides consistent financial reporting. The use of non-GAAP measures is intended to supplement, and not to replace, the presentation of net income and other GAAP measures. Like all non-GAAP measures, non-GAAP earnings are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP.

  1. Totals and subtotals may not add due to rounding.
  1. In order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we provide certain financial information on a “constant currency basis,” which is in addition to the actual financial information presented. In order to calculate our constant currency information, we translate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period. However, constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
