Medtronic's NYSE: MDT share price is down significantly from its peak in 2021, providing investors a deep-value opportunity. The stock price is down because of the post-COVID correction and headwinds leading to sluggish growth, which are factors that will not last forever.
Medtronic plc reported Q2 earnings today, with revenues of $8.4bn, up 5% year-on-year, adjusted EPS of $1.26, supported by a dividend yielding 3.2%. Despite consistent mid-single-digit revenue growth and new product launches, Medtronic's share price remains flat due to unpredictable net income and modest innovation. CEO Geoff Martha highlighted strong performance and innovation in key fields such as diabetes and hypertension, but stopped short of providing specific long-term growth guidance, keeping market sentiment lukewarm.
U.S. stocks traded mixed toward the end of trading, with the Nasdaq Composite gaining by around 1% on Tuesday.
