Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about ResMed stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "In the last one month, ResMed is trading significantly above the broader Medical Products industry. On the brighter side, ResMed’s product launches and strategies to gain traction in the SDB market are expected to boost its performance in the near term. Moreover, the company’s double-digit growth in mask sales raises optimism. Its recent published favorable study result on COPD is expected to open up new scope in this line. Yet, challenges like competitive bidding and reimbursement issues continue to plague the stock. Foreign exchange movements dented third-quarter earnings, thanks to the weaker Euro and stronger Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. Rising operating expenses and a weak operating margin are other major woes for ResMed. The company’s last reported fiscal third quarter performance was also unimpressive." (7/6/2017)
• 2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "RMD’s revenue and EPS beat consensus in F2Q17. RMD’s gross margin was lower than expected as price declines and mix (both product and geographic) were partially offset by manufacturing efficiencies and the Brightree acquisition. However, this was offset by lower than expected SG&A and R&D expense and RMD’s operating margin beat our estimate. Despite the headline results, this wasn’t a clean quarter in our view since flow generator growth of 17% CC was helped by a few temporary factors (the AirStart liquidation and some stocking orders in China), mask growth was disappointing at 2% CC, and gross margin declined significantly on an organic basis."
