“Our fourth quarter and full-year fiscal year 2021 results continue to demonstrate the strength and resiliency of our business,” said Mick Farrell, ResMed’s CEO. “During the quarter, we saw the ongoing recovery of core sleep apnea and COPD patient flow across our business, as healthcare systems continue to adopt new models of patient care. We faced some headwinds this quarter, as we annualized the $125 million in COVID-related ventilator sales from this period in 2020, and we saw some tailwinds from a competitor’s major quality issue that was announced during the quarter. The net result was strong revenue growth of 10% for our ResMed business in the June quarter. We finished the full fiscal year 2021 with 6% revenue growth year-over-year to $3.2 billion, with operating profit up 12% on a non-GAAP basis.

“At this time of incredible demand for ResMed products, we are doing everything we can to increase our manufacturing of sleep and respiratory care devices. Our global team is supporting patients, providers, and physicians with our priority to get products directly into the hands of patients who need therapy most. Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to grow steadily through our fiscal year 2022 and to deliver for all our stakeholders. We’re driving accelerated adoption of digital health solutions in sleep apnea, COPD, and out-of-hospital care, accelerating our ResMed 2025 strategy. These digital health solutions provide efficiency and lower costs for providers and payers, as well as better quality-of-life and clinical outcomes for patients and physicians, and sustainable growth for all of our ResMed stakeholders.”

(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.

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

• During the June quarter, we derived incremental respiratory care revenue from COVID-19 related demand of approximately $20.0 million whereas our prior year quarter included incremental revenue of approximately $125.0 million. Excluding the impact of the incremental respiratory care revenue associated with COVID-19, revenue increased by 29 percent on a constant currency basis.
• Revenue in the U.S., Canada, and Latin America, excluding Software as a Service, grew by 18 percent, driven by increased demand for our sleep devices and masks, including recovery of core sleep patient flow that was previously impacted by COVID-19 and increased demand following a recent product recall by one of our competitors, partially offset by decreased COVID-19 related demand for our ventilators.
• Revenue in Europe, Asia, and other markets grew by 2 percent on a constant currency basis, primarily driven by strong sales across our mask product portfolio, partially offset by lower device sales due to the incremental COVID-19 respiratory care revenue generated in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of the incremental respiratory care revenue associated with COVID-19, revenue increased by 35 percent on a constant currency basis.
• Software as a Service revenue increased by 5 percent, due to continued growth in resupply service offerings and stabilizing patient flow in out-of-hospital care settings.
• Gross margin decreased by 230 basis points and non-GAAP gross margin decreased by 260 basis points, mainly due to an unfavorable product mix, specifically a proportional increase in lower-margin Sleep devices, lower average selling prices, and unfavorable foreign currency movements.
• Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by 4 percent on a constant currency basis. SG&A expenses improved to 20.7 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared with 21.5 percent in the same period of the prior year. These changes in SG&A expenses were mainly due to increases in employee-related expenses, partially offset by a reduction in doubtful debt expenses.
• Income from operations increased by 8 percent and non-GAAP income from operations increased by 7 percent.
• Net income grew by 10 percent and diluted earnings per share grew by 9 percent. Non-GAAP net income grew by 3 percent and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share grew by 2 percent, predominantly attributable to strong sales.
• Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $226.5 million, compared to net income in the current quarter of $195.1 million and non-GAAP net income of $198.4 million. During the quarter we paid $56.8 million in dividends.
  

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 August 19, 2021, payable on September 23, 2021. The dividend will be paid in U.S. currency to holders of ResMed’s common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Holders of CHESS Depositary Interests (“CDIs”) trading on the Australian Securities Exchange will receive an equivalent amount in Australian currency, based on the exchange rate on the record date, and reflecting the 10:1 ratio between CDIs and NYSE shares. The ex-dividend date will be August 18, 2021, 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 August 18, 2021, through August 19, 2021, inclusive.

(A)

ResMed adjusts for the impact of the amortization of acquired intangibles, reserve for disputed tax positions, restructuring expenses, the (gain) loss on equity investments, the fair value impairment of investment, deferred revenue fair value adjustment and litigation settlement expenses 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.
