How ResMed Makes Money

ResMed operates a highly lucrative, resilient razor-and-blade medtech business model reinforced by high-margin software subscriptions: (1) Connected Devices (~53% of revenue / ~$2.5B), manufacturing premium CPAP, APAP, and bilevel flow generators (AirSense 11, AirCurve 11, AirMini) sold to home medical equipment (HME) suppliers and healthcare systems; (2) Masks & Consumables (~35% of revenue / ~$1.6B), delivering high-margin recurring cash flows from nasal, full-face, and minimalist nasal pillow masks (AirFit F30i, N30i, P10), silicone cushions, headgear, and humidification tubing that patients replace every 3 to 6 months; and (3) Out-of-Hospital SaaS Solutions (~12% of revenue / ~$560M), monetizing cloud subscription platforms including Brightree (HME billing and practice management), MatrixCare (long-term post-acute EHR), and MEDIFOX DAN (European ambulatory care software). ResMed generates gross margins near 59% and over $1.3 billion in annual operating cash flow.
