FDA Clears MiniMed Flex Insulin Pump, Impacting Medtronic's Q4 Guidance
Summary
Medtronic plc announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the MiniMed Flex, a next-generation insulin pump, several months earlier than anticipated. This clearance will facilitate earlier commercialization of the product. As a result, Medtronic expects a one-time charge of $157 million in Q4 FY2026, impacting non-GAAP EPS by $0.08 per share. Additionally, the IPO of 10% of MiniMed is expected to dilute earnings by $0.04 per share for Q4 FY2026. Consequently, Medtronic revised its non-GAAP EPS guidance for FY2026 to a range of $5.50 to $5.54, down from the previous guidance of $5.62 to $5.66.
