Morningstar | ResMed is well-positioned for growth amid an underpenetrated sleep apnoea market.
ResMed targets a very large potential market opportunity. The National Heart Blood and Lung Institute estimates that 12 million Americans suffer from sleep apnoea; according to ResMed, fewer than 4 million of these are diagnosed or treated for sleep apnoea each year. By expanding the pool of diagnosed and treated sleep apnoea patients, companies that target the disorder have much to gain. ResMed's strategy involves increasing awareness of the disorder among physicians and the general population. The company is also making testing for sleep apnoea simpler with home testing devices, which expands the company's reach to patients unwilling to be treated at sleep labs. Most importantly, ResMed aims to introduce new devices that make patients more comfortable and compliant during treatment, which should provide the company with a stream of recurring revenue.ResMed is a holding company. Through its operating subsidiaries, the company is engaged in the development, manufacturing, distribution and marketing of medical devices and cloud-based software solutions that diagnose, treat and manage respiratory disorders including sleep disordered breathing, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, neuromuscular disease and other chronic diseases. The company has two operating segments: Sleep and Respiratory Care and Software-as-a-Solutions. The company's portfolio of products includes devices, diagnostic products, mask systems, headgear and other accessories, dental devices, portable oxygen concentrators and cloud-based software informatics solutions.
