The standout driver was the Cardiovascular Portfolio, which generated $3.46 billion with 13.8% reported growth, fueled in large part by Cardiac Ablation Solutions revenue jumping 80% overall and 137% in the U.S. As the company's pulsed field ablation lineup gained rapid clinical adoption. The result marked the company's strongest enterprise revenue performance in 10 quarters and exceeded Medtronic's own organic growth guidance by 50 basis points. Additional momentum came from the Hugo robotic surgery system receiving U.S. FDA clearance and strong double-digit international growth in the Diabetes segment. Looking ahead, Medtronic reiterated its full-year outlook for approximately 5.5% organic revenue growth and non-GAAP EPS of $5.62 to $5.66, absorbing an estimated $185 million tariff headwind.
Key Takeaways
- • Cardiac Ablation Solutions revenue grew 80% (137% in U.S.) driven by pulsed field ablation portfolio
- • Cardiovascular Portfolio delivered 10.6% organic growth, the strongest segment
- • Diabetes revenue grew 8.3% organic, led by double-digit international strength
