“Our second-quarter results reflect continued strong performance across our business resulting in double-digit top-line revenue growth, driven by ongoing high demand for our sleep and respiratory care products, and solid growth in our software-as-a-service business,” said Mick Farrell, ResMed CEO. “Our global ResMed team continues to find ways to deliver products and solutions to our customers, even amid ongoing supply chain challenges that have limited additional access to critical electronic components. We are working every day to meet the extraordinary demand generated by our competitor’s ongoing device recall. We continue to ensure priority for the highest-need patients first, and we are working with physicians, providers, and healthcare systems to maintain delivery of medical devices and digital health solutions for the patients who need care.”

“Despite constantly evolving market dynamics, we remain focused on our goal to improve 250 million lives in the year 2025; supporting patients with the sleep apnea therapy, respiratory care therapy, and digital health solutions they need as we deliver value for all of our customers. We are investing in medical device research and development, as well as digital health innovation that will unlock value across the healthcare system. I am incredibly proud of our global ResMed team, working around the clock with providers and physicians across 140 countries to get products directly into the hands of patients who most need our help.”

(A) In order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we provide certain financial information on a “constant currency” basis, which is in addition to the actual financial information presented. In order to calculate our constant currency information, we translate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period. However, constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(B) See the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures in the table at the end of the press release.

Discussion of Second Quarter Results
All comparisons are to the prior year period unless otherwise noted

• Revenue grew by 13 percent on a constant currency basis, driven by increased demand for our sleep and respiratory care devices and increased demand following a recent product recall by one of our competitors.
  • Revenue in the U.S., Canada, and Latin America, excluding Software as a Service, grew by 14 percent, primarily due to the factors discussed above and recovery of core sleep patient flow that was previously impacted by COVID-19.
  • Revenue in Europe, Asia, and other markets grew by 12 percent on a constant currency basis, primarily due to the factors discussed above.
  • Software as a Service revenue increased by 8 percent, due to continued growth in our Durable Medical Equipment category and stabilizing patient flow in out-of-hospital care settings.
• Gross margin decreased by 140 basis points and non-GAAP gross margin decreased by 230 basis points, mainly due to higher freight and manufacturing costs, partially offset by favorable product mix changes.
• Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by 10 percent on a constant currency basis. SG&A expenses improved to 20.7 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared with 21.2 percent in the same period of the prior year. These changes in SG&A expenses were mainly due to increases in employee-related expenses.
• Income from operations increased by 12 percent and non-GAAP income from operations increased by 5 percent.
• Net income grew by 12 percent and diluted earnings per share grew by 11 percent. Non-GAAP net income grew by 5 percent and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share grew by 4 percent, predominantly attributable to strong sales.
• Operating cash flow for the quarter was $219.9 million, compared to net income in the current quarter of $201.8 million and non-GAAP net income of $216.2 million. During the quarter we paid $61.2 million in dividends.
  

Other Business and Operational Highlights

• Elected Desney Tan and John Hernandez, both leaders with digital health experience at world-leading technology companies, to ResMed’s board of directors.  
  

Dividend program
The ResMed board of directors today declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.42 per share. The dividend will have a record date of February 10, 2022, payable on March 17, 2022.

The ex-dividend date will be February 9, 2022, for common stockholders and for CDI holders. ResMed has received a waiver from the ASX’s settlement operating rules, which will allow ResMed to defer processing conversions between its common stock and CDI registers from February 9, 2022, through February 10, 2022, inclusive.

Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (A)	$	1.47			$	1.41			$	2.98			$	2.68

(A) ResMed adjusts for the impact of the amortization of acquired intangibles, reserve for disputed tax positions, restructuring expenses and the (gain) loss on equity investments from their evaluation of ongoing operations, and believes that investors benefit from adjusting these items to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of current operating performance.

ResMed believes that non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is an additional measure of performance that investors can use to compare operating results between reporting periods. ResMed uses non-GAAP information internally in planning, forecasting, and evaluating the results of operations in the current period and in comparing it to past periods. ResMed believes this information provides investors better insight when evaluating ResMed’s performance from core operations and provides consistent financial reporting. The use of non-GAAP measures is intended to supplement, and not to replace, the presentation of net income and other GAAP measures. Like all non-GAAP measures, non-GAAP earnings are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP.

(A) Totals and subtotals may not add due to rounding.
(B) In order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we provide certain financial information on a “constant currency basis,” which is in addition to the actual financial information presented. In order to calculate our constant currency information, we translate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period. However, constant currency measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
