In Medical Surgical, worldwide sales totaled $2.32 billion, marking a 25% year-over-year improvement at CER with high-thirties organic growth in SI and mid-single digit organic growth in RGR. SI rose 39% while RGR registered an improvement of 3% both at CER.

Cranial and Spinal Technologies reported 17% rise at CER. Sales in Specialty Therapies and Neuromodulation both were up 37% year over year at CER.
Revenues at the Diabetes group fell 3% at CER to $572 million.

Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 5.4% to $2.55 billion. Research and development expenses increased 20.8% to $750 million.
Guidance
Medtronic has updated its fiscal 2022 financial guidance.
The company continues to expect organic revenue growth of approximate 9% from fiscal 2021. Considering current foreign exchange rate, fiscal 2022 revenues are expected to be positively impacted by $100 to $200 million. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s fiscal 2022 worldwide revenues is pegged at $33.29 billion.
The lower end of the full-year adjusted EPS guidance has been raised this time to a range of $5.65 to $5.75 including an estimated 5 to 10 cents positive impact from foreign exchange (the earlier band was $5.60 to $5.75 on an estimated 10 to 15 cents positive foreign exchange impact). The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the year’s adjusted earnings is $5.68.
Our Take
Medtronic’s first-quarter fiscal 2022 earnings and revenues both were ahead of the respective Zacks Consensus Estimate. Barring Diabetes, each and every operating segment and geography registered strong year-over-year growth on an organic basis.
The company's first-quarter results echoed a strong recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on elective procedures that the company experienced in 2020. This reflected solid execution and continued procedure volume recovery, with most of the businesses at or above pre-COVID levels. The quarter’s gross and operating margins showed stupendous improvement on a year-over-year basis.
However, Medtronic’s Diabetes arm is suffering from declines in U.S. sales of consumables and CGM products.
