Medtronic: Margin Inflection With Diabetes Spin - Key Drivers
Initiate Medtronic with Strong Buy, $161 PT, citing a structural margin inflection from Diabetes spin-off and robust innovation pipeline (120+ approvals). Street underestimates FY27 margin/EPS upside from Diabetes separation and operating leverage in Cardiac & Structural Heart—key drivers for re-rating. Valuation at 26x FY27E EPS is conservative versus peers; scenario analysis shows risk skewed to the upside, as margin catalysts execute.
Medtronic: Eyes On The Pipeline And Spin, Shares Still Cheap
I reiterate my buy rating on Medtronic, driven by solid fundamentals and an attractive valuation, despite less upside versus prior estimates. Medtronic continues to deliver steady revenue growth, robust free cash flow, and a 48-year dividend growth streak, even as sector sentiment weakens. Key risks include competitive pressures, margin threats in Diabetes and CAS, and macro headwinds like tariffs, requiring prudent management execution.

Medtronic: Solid Recent Performance But Better Options Available
Medtronic remains a dependable dividend aristocrat, but its long-term total shareholder returns lag significantly behind peers like Johnson & Johnson and Stryker. Despite a solid 2025 performance, the stock's recent gains stem from a low base, and it still trades well below its 2021 highs. Earnings growth is steady but uninspiring, with margin pressure and tariff risks highlighting operational challenges versus higher-quality competitors.

Medtronic provides a reliable 3.5% yield, a strong balance sheet, and growth catalysts in cardiac solutions, surgical robotics, and a value-enhancing diabetes spin-off.
