RMD stock was trading at around $210 in early June 2022, just before the Fed started increasing rates, and is now nearly 30% below that level, compared to 14% gains for the S&amp;P 500 during this period. The recent stock decline can partly be attributed to downbeat Q4 fiscal 2023 results (fiscal year ends in June).<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, RMD stock has had a Sharpe Ratio of <strong>0.5<\/strong> since early 2017, lower than <strong>0.6<\/strong> for the S&amp;P 500 Index over the same period. This compares with the <strong>Sharpe of 1.3<\/strong> for the Trefis Reinforced Value portfolio. Sharpe is a measure of return per unit of risk, and high-performance portfolios can provide the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n<p>Returning to the pre-inflation shock high of over $297 (seen in Sep 2021) means that RMD stock will have to gain 2x from here, and we don\u2019t think this will materialize anytime soon. That said, RMD stock could see higher levels given that it currently trades at 5x revenues compared to its last five-year average of 9x.

The company\u2019s SaaS business has benefited from its 2022 acquisition of Medifox Dan. ResMed\u2019s operating margin increased from 26% in 2020 to 27<strong>%<\/strong> in 2023. However, the company\u2019s gross margin contracted 200 bps in Q4\u201923 due to higher component and manufacturing costs. The company\u2019s earnings stood at $6.12 on a per-share and reported basis in 2023, compared to the $4.31 figure in 2020.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Does ResMed Have A Sufficient Cash Cushion To Meet Its Obligations Through The Ongoing Inflation Shock?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ResMed\u2019s total debt increased from $1.3 billion in 2020 to $1.6 billion now, while its cash decreased from $463 million to $228 million over the same period. The company also garnered $693 million in cash flows from operations in 2023. Given its solid cash cushion, the company appears well-positioned to service its near-term obligations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the Fed\u2019s efforts to tame runaway inflation rates helping market sentiment, we believe RMD stock has the potential for more gains once fears of a potential recession are allayed.
