Fourth Quarter (Q4) Financial Results
Medtronic reported Q4 worldwide revenue of $8.544 billion, an increase of 5.6% both as reported and on an organic basis. The company's Q4 organic revenue results reflect strong performances in the Cardiovascular, Medical Surgical, and Neuroscience portfolios, and in Diabetes markets outside the United States. The Q4 organic revenue growth comparison excludes:

a $250 million negative impact from foreign currency translation;
$265 million of revenue from a one-time intellectual property (IP) agreement, which is reported in the Structural Heart & Aortic division in the Cardiovascular Portfolio;
$44 million of current year revenue and $83 million of prior year revenue from the Renal Care Solutions business in the Respiratory, GI, & Renal division in the Medical Surgical Portfolio, which was divested and became part of Mozarc Medical during the quarter; and
$27 million of revenue from the company's first quarter acquisition of Intersect ENT, which is reported in the Specialty Therapies division in the Neuroscience Portfolio.

Medtronic received $300 million in the quarter from an IP agreement with a competitor in the Structural Heart space. Pre-tax income of $35 million was recorded in Certain Litigation Charges, Net, for prior period royalties, with the remaining $265 million recognized as inorganic revenue. The $265 million of inorganic revenue was offset by certain expenses, including commitments to funding the Medtronic Foundation and LABS, and certain inventory related charges. The net result is a neutral benefit to Q4 adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS).

As reported, Q4 GAAP net income and diluted EPS were $1.179 billion and $0.88, respectively, decreases of 21% and 20%, respectively. As detailed in the financial schedules included at the end of this release, Q4 non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS were $2.093 billion and $1.57, respectively, both increases of 3%.

Fiscal Year 2023 (FY23) Financial Results
Medtronic reported FY23 worldwide revenue of $31.227 billion, a decrease of 1.4% as reported and an increase of 2.1% on an organic basis. The FY23 organic revenue growth comparison excludes:

a $1.437 billion negative impact from foreign currency translation;
$98 million of revenue from the company's acquisition of Intersect ENT;
$44 million of fourth quarter revenue and $83 million of prior year fourth quarter revenue from the Renal Care Solutions divestiture; and
$265 million of revenue from a one-time IP agreement in the fourth quarter.

Fiscal year 2023 GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $3.758 billion and $2.82, respectively, decreases of 25% and 24%, respectively. As detailed in the financial schedules included at the end of this release, fiscal year 2023 non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS were $7.045 billion and $5.29, respectively, decreases of 6% and 5%, respectively. The company's FY23 earnings results reflected the continued unfavorable macroeconomic impact of foreign currency translation and inflation.

Fiscal year 2023 cash flow from operations of $6.039 billion decreased 18%. Fiscal year 2023 free cash flow of $4.580 billion decreased 23%, representing free cash flow conversion from non-GAAP net earnings of 65%. Free cash flow was primarily affected by the decline in net earnings.

"We had a strong finish to our fiscal year, with our fourth quarter top- and bottom-line results coming in ahead of expectations. Our accelerating revenue growth was broad-based, driven by procedure volume recovery, supply improvements, and innovative product introductions," said Geoff Martha, Medtronic chairman and chief executive officer. "We're confident in delivering durable revenue growth in the year ahead as we drive execution across our businesses."

Guidance
The company today issued fiscal year 2024 revenue growth and EPS guidance.

The company is guiding to fiscal year 2024 organic revenue growth in the range of 4.0% to 4.5%, which excludes the impact of foreign currency and revenue related to certain businesses that will be reported as Other going forward. If foreign currency exchange rates as of the beginning of May hold, fiscal year 2024 revenue would be positively affected by approximately $110 million to $210 million from foreign currency.

The company is guiding to fiscal year 2024 non-GAAP EPS in the range of $5.00 to $5.10, including an estimated 6% unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange rates at the beginning of May.

"We're encouraged by the procedure recovery we are seeing in many of our markets, our product availability is improving, we like our competitive positions across our businesses, and we have many new, innovative products coming to the market," said Karen Parkhill, Medtronic chief financial officer. "We've also been taking measures to reduce costs across the company to lessen the impact from macro factors like inflation and currency to our earnings. And we're enhancing our capital allocation and portfolio management processes to create long-term durable growth."

Dividend Increase
The company today announced that effective May 24, 2023, the Medtronic board of directors approved an increase in Medtronic's cash dividend for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, raising the quarterly amount to $0.69 per ordinary share. This would translate into an annual amount of $2.76 per ordinary share. Medtronic has a long history of dividend growth, and the company is a constituent of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats index. Today's announcement marks the 46th consecutive year of an increase in the dividend payment. Including today's increase, Medtronic's dividend per share has grown by 38% over the past 5 years, 146% over the past 10 years, and has grown at a 16% compounded annual growth rate over the past 46 years.

Medtronic has a strong track record of returning capital to its shareholders, including $4.0 billion in fiscal year 2023. The company remains committed to returning a minimum of 50% of its free cash flow to shareholders, primarily through dividends, and to a lesser extent, share repurchases. The dividend is payable on July 14, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 23, 2023.

"We continue to prioritize innovation-driven growth investments while at the same time delivering a strong and growing dividend, an important part of the total return we generate for our shareholders. Today's dividend increase reflects the confidence our Board has in our long-term strategy and growth trajectory," said Martha.

See description of non-GAAP financial measures contained in the press release dated May 25, 2023.
(1)	The data in this schedule has been intentionally rounded to the nearest million or $0.01 for EPS figures, and, therefore, may not sum.
(2)	Associated costs include costs incurred as a direct result of the restructuring program, such as salaries for employees supporting the program and consulting expenses.
(3)	The charges primarily include business combination costs and changes in fair value of contingent consideration.
(4)	The charges primarily include changes in the carrying value of the disposal group and other associated costs as a result of the April 1, 2023 sale of half of the Company's Renal Care Solutions (RCS) business, and charges related to the impending separation of the Patient Monitoring and Respiratory Interventions businesses within our Medical Surgical Portfolio.
(5)	Certain litigation includes $35 million related to the one-time payment received as a result of the Intellectual Property Agreement entered into with Edwards Lifesciences on April 12, 2023.
(6)	We exclude unrealized and realized gains and losses on our minority investments as we do not believe that these components of income or expense have a direct correlation to our ongoing or future business operations.
(7)	The charges represent incremental costs of complying with the new European Union (E.U.) medical device regulations for previously registered products and primarily include charges for contractors supporting the project and other direct third-party expenses. We consider these costs to be duplicative of previously incurred costs and/or one-time costs, which are limited to a specific time period.
(8)	The charge primarily relates to the reduction of deferred tax assets due to the disallowance of certain interest deductions and the change in the reporting currency for certain carryover attributes, and the impact from the sale of half of the Company's RCS business.
(9)	The charges relate to incremental commitments and obligations, including patient support obligations and other remediation costs, associated with the Company's June 2021 decision to stop the distribution and sale of the Medtronic HVAD System within the Mechanical Circulatory Support Operating Unit (MCS).

We consider these costs to be duplicative of previously incurred costs and /or one-time costs, which are limited to a specific period.
(8)	The charges relate to the early redemption of approximately $2.3 billion of debt and were recorded within interest expense, net within the consolidated statements of income.
(9)	The charge primarily relates to a $764 million reserve adjustment that was a direct result of the U.S. Tax Court opinion, issued on August 18, 2022, on the previously disclosed litigation regarding the allocation of income between Medtronic, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary operating in Puerto Rico. Additional charges relate to the reduction of deferred tax assets due to the disallowance of certain interest deductions and the change in the reporting currency for certain carryover attributes, and the amortization on previously established deferred tax assets from intercompany intellectual property transactions.
(10)	The charges relate to the Company's June 2021 decision to stop the distribution and sale of the Medtronic HVAD System within the Mechanical Circulatory Support Operating Unit (MCS). The charges included $515 million of non-cash impairments, primarily related to $409 million of intangible asset impairments, as well as $366 million for commitments and obligations in connection with the decision, including patient support obligations, restructuring, and other associated costs. Medtronic is committed to serving the needs of patients currently implanted with the HVAD System.
(11)	The net benefit primarily relates to the deferred tax impact associated with a step up in tax basis for Swiss Cantonal purposes and a change in tax rates on deferred taxes associated with intellectual property, which are partially offset by the amortization on previously established deferred tax assets from intercompany intellectual property transactions and a charge related to a change in the Company's permanent reinvestment assertion on certain historical earnings.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to risks and uncertainties, including risks related to competitive factors, difficulties and delays inherent in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical products, government regulation and general economic conditions and other risks and uncertainties described in the company's periodic reports on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission including the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K of the company, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words or expressions, such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "looking ahead," "may," "plan," "possible," "potential," "project," "should," "going to," "will," and similar words or expressions, the negative or plural of such words or expressions and other comparable terminology. Actual results may differ materially from anticipated results. Medtronic does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements or any of the information contained in this press release, including to reflect future events or circumstances.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release contains financial measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, and organic revenue, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. References to quarterly or annual figures increasing, decreasing or remaining flat are in comparison to fiscal year 2022.

Medtronic management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding the company's underlying operational performance and trends and to facilitate comparisons with the performance of other companies in the med tech industry. Non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS exclude the effect of certain charges or gains that contribute to or reduce earnings but that result from transactions or events that management believes may or may not recur with similar materiality or impact to operations in future periods (Non-GAAP Adjustments). Medtronic generally uses non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's review of the operational performance of the company and as a basis for strategic planning. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and investors are cautioned that Medtronic may calculate non-GAAP financial measures in a way that is different from other companies. Management strongly encourages investors to review the company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial schedules accompanying this press release.

Medtronic calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For instance, forward-looking organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, as well as significant acquisitions or divestitures. Forward-looking diluted non-GAAP EPS guidance also excludes other potential charges or gains that would be recorded as Non-GAAP Adjustments to earnings during the fiscal year. Medtronic does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP EPS guidance to projected GAAP EPS guidance because the combined impact and timing of recognition of these potential charges or gains is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and is unavailable without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of financial performance.
