Medtronic PLC raised its annual organic revenue growth outlook
to at least 5% from a previous long-range target of at least
4%.
The Dublin medical-technology company said Wednesday it expects
adjusted per-share earnings compound annual growth of at least 8%
over the long term, assuming modest currency volatility.
Medtronic said it is targeting a cash conversion ratio of more
than 80%, and is committing to return over 50% of its free cash
flow to shareholders.
The company said it expects its revenue-growth strategy will
drive strong double-digit total shareholder return.
"Prioritizing investments in innovation where we see the best
opportunities, along with our ongoing focus on driving
productivity, will enable us to achieve our long-range targets and
generate strong shareholder value," Chief Financial Officer Karen
Parkhill said.
Medtronic said it expects dividend growth to be in line with its
earnings growth.
