Did MDT Beat Earnings? Q1 2027 Results

Yes. Medtronic reported Q1 2027 earnings of $1.45 a share on Sep 1, 2026, beating the $1.39 consensus estimate by 4.5%. Revenue was $9.8B against a $9.5B estimate.

Medtronic plc kicked off fiscal 2027 with a convincing first quarter, posting adjusted non-GAAP EPS of $1.45 against a consensus estimate of $1.39, a beat of 4.51% that extended the company's streak of exceeding Wall Street's EPS expectations to five consecutive quarters. Revenue of $9.76 billion climbed 13.7% year-over-year and topped the $9.54 billion consensus by 2.21%, landing roughly 200 basis points above the company's own guidance midpoint. The standout driver was the Cardiovascular Portfolio, which expanded 18.9% organically to $3.93 billion, led by a 29.1% organic surge in Electrophysiology Therapies and 88% growth in Cardiac Ablation Solutions, reflecting strong commercial momentum behind the company's Affera Mapping and Ablation System. Operating cash flow more than doubled year-over-year to $1.79 billion, reinforcing the financial strength that has drawn attention from investors ahead of Medtronic's ongoing Diabetes segment separation. On the heels of the strong print, management raised its full-year organic revenue growth outlook to 7.25%-7.75% and tightened non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance upward to a range of $5.94 to $6.00.

Key Takeaways
  • Broad-based portfolio performance across all four segments
  • Electrophysiology Therapies grew 29.5% reported, driven by 88% growth in Cardiac Ablation Solutions and 15% growth in Cardiac Rhythm Management
  • Extra fiscal week contributed approximately $570 million to Q1 organic growth
  • Cranial & Spinal Technologies grew with low-20s growth in enabling technology
  • Altaviva meaningfully contributed to 15% growth in Pelvic Health
  • Diabetes grew 14.9% organically driven by insulin pump and CGM demand

“We are off to a strong start in fiscal 2027. What gives us confidence is not simply the strength of the quarter, but importantly, the breadth of performance across our businesses and the increasing contributions from newer growth platforms.”

Medtronic CEO, on the earnings call
