What to expect when Medtronic reports Q2 2020 earnings results?

Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT) is scheduled to report second quarter 2020 earnings results on Tuesday, November 19, before the market opens. The consensus estimate is for earnings of $1.28 per share on revenue of $7.66 billion.

The momentum seen in the Minimally Invasive Therapies Group and Restorative Therapies Group is expected to continue and in turn fuel the topline numbers. The weakness in the Cardiac and Vascular Group is expected to continue. The company has been making progress with several product launches and partnerships during the quarter.

In October, the company received Breakthrough Device designation from the FDA for its Valiant TAAA Stent Graft System which is intended for the repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) through a minimally invasive procedure. TAAA causes the bulging of the aorta, which extends from the chest into the abdomen.

Medtronic also launched the Valiant Navion thoracic stent graft system in Japan for the minimally invasive repair of thoracic descending aortic aneurysms (TAA) and complicated type B aortic dissections (TBAD).
