Our Take on MDT Stock
Medtronic exited the second quarter of fiscal 2025 with both earnings and revenues beat. Both the metrics were up on a year-over-year basis. The company’s robust innovation is driving sustained growth across many franchises, such as TAVR, Diabetes, Spine, and Neuromodulation among others. Within Neuromodulation, both Cranial & Spinal Technologies and Neuromodulation delivered an above-market performance. Expansion of adjusted operating margin in the quarter is encouraging.
