Ministers hail funding to extend health early intervention initiative
Hilary Benn, along with deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly, Health Minister Mike Nesbitt and Finance Minister John O'Dowd visited Eden Park Medical Practice in north Belfast where they met with GPs and healthcare staff.
It comes following the announcement of £61 million for multi-disciplinary teams (MDTs), a partnership between GP federations and health trusts to introduce new early intervention roles into general practice.
Mr O'Dowd announced the funding earlier this week, as one of six projects to benefit from £129 million to transform public services.
As part of the financial package which led to the restoration of the devolved powersharing institutions last year, £235 million was committed by the UK Government for transformation funding over a five-year period.
Mr Benn said he had been impressed with what he had heard, describing the MDT model as something that works.
'The £61 million is going to enable many more GP practices to be able to adopt it and bring real benefits for patients, and also in time will take pressure off secondary care,' he said.
'This shows what can be done when we work together.'
Ms Little-Pengelly said it had been 'fantastic' to visit and see what the initiative will mean on the ground, praising the agreement for the first tranche of the £235 million delivered.
'These projects will make a really significant impact right across a number of key areas,' she said.
Mr Nesbitt described a 'great day'.
'There is a lot happening in terms of health reform, rapid diagnostic centres, day procedure centres, elective overnight stay centres, but the multi disciplinary team is the outstanding example,' he said.
'We know it works from the seven federations where it already exists and it's great to get that up to 12 of the 17, and we'll continue to work until everybody has access to a multi disciplinary team.'
Mr O'Dowd added: 'Listening to the GPs, the people on the frontline, and the enthusiasm they have for the multi disciplinary teams, to me is the icing on the cake.
'They know the difference this money is going to make to the communities they serve, and we as elected representatives in our different roles, will continue to work together to ensure that more funding similar to this is rolled out and that we continue to make the change that is required across our society.'

MDT Stock Falls Despite Q1 Earnings & Revenue Beat, FY26 EPS View Up
Medtronic plc MDT reported first-quarter fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.26, which rose 2.4% from the year-ago quarter's figure and beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.4%. Without certain one-time adjustments — including amortization, restructuring and associated costs, certain litigation charges and acquisition-related costs, among others — GAAP EPS was 81 cents, reflecting a 1.3% improvement from the year-ago quarter's reported figure. Following the announcement today, MDT shares fell 3.1% in premarket trading. Medtronic announced the addition of two independent directors and the formation of two special board committees focused on growth and operations. This might have introduced a short-term uncertainty, putting pressure on the company's share price. MDT's Revenues Worldwide revenues in the reported quarter totaled $8.58 billion, up 8.3% year over year on a reported basis and 4.8% organically. The top line surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.5%. Segmental Analysis of MDT's Q1 Revenues The company reports revenues under four major segments — Cardiovascular, Medical Surgical, Neuroscience and Diabetes. In the fiscal first quarter, Cardiovascular revenues increased 7% organically to $3.23 billion. Within this, Cardiac Rhythm & Heart Failure sales totaled $1.71 billion, up 9.1% year over year organically. Revenues from Structural Heart & Aortic rose 6.1% organically to $930 million. Coronary & Peripheral Vascular revenues grew 2.9% organically to $643 million. In the Medical Surgical portfolio, worldwide sales totaled $2.08 billion, up 2.4% year over year organically. While Surgical & Endoscopy revenues edged up 2.3% organically to $1.61 billion, Acute Care & Monitoring revenues increased 2.6% to $471 million. In Neuroscience, worldwide revenues of $2.42 billion were up 3.1% year over year organically. Cranial & Spinal Technologies sales amounted to $1.21 billion, up 4.5% year over year organically. Specialty Therapies revenues totaled $702 million, down 2.7% year over year organically. Neuromodulation revenues grew 8.6% organically to $504 million. Revenues in the Diabetes group rose 7.9% organically to $721 million. MDT's Q1 Margin Performance Gross margin in the reported quarter contracted 10 basis points (bps) to 65% due to an 8.7% rise in the cost of revenues. Research and development expenses rose 7.4% year over year to $726 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 5.7% to $2.81 billion. Adjusted operating margin expanded 81 bps year over year to 23.8%. Medtronic's Fiscal 2026 Outlook For (full) fiscal 2026, Medtronic still projects organic revenue growth of 5%. The organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of foreign currency and revenues related to certain businesses reported as Other. Including Other revenues and the impact of foreign currency exchange, if recent foreign currency exchange rates hold, fiscal 26 revenue growth on a reported basis would now be in the range of 6.5-6.8% (earlier 4.8-5.1%). Medtronic PLC Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Medtronic PLC price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | Medtronic PLC Quote The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2026 worldwide revenues is pegged at $35.29 billion, implying 5.2% growth from the year-ago reported figure. Full-year adjusted EPS is now expected to be in the range of $5.60-$5.66 (earlier $5.50-$5.60). The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the year's adjusted earnings is pegged at $5.55 per share. Our Take on MDT Stock Medtronic exited the first quarter of fiscal 2026 with better-than-expected results, wherein both earnings and revenues beat estimates. Cardiac Ablation Solutions revenues increased nearly 50%, including 72% in the United States, on the strength of pulsed field ablation (PFA) products. Additionally, the company received CE Mark for LigaSure RAS vessel-sealing technology on Hugo robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) system. Meanwhile, the expansion of operating margin and the raised fiscal 2026 EPS guidance in the quarter are highly encouraging. MDT's Zacks Rank & Key Picks Medtronic currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Some better-ranked stocks from the broader medical space are Medpace Holdings MEDP, GeneDx Holdings WGS and Boston Scientific BSX. Medpace Holdings, currently sporting a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), reported a second-quarter 2025 EPS of $3.1, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3.33%. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank stocks here. Revenues of $603.3 million topped the consensus mark by 11.48%.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTSThis press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to risks and uncertainties, including risks related to competitive factors, difficulties and delays inherent in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical products, government regulation, geopolitical conflicts, changing global trade policies, material acquisition and divestiture transactions, general economic conditions, and other risks and uncertainties described in the company's periodic reports on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission including the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K of the company. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words or expressions, such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "looking ahead," "may," "plan," "possible," "potential," "project," "should," "going to," "will," and similar words or expressions, the negative or plural of such words or expressions and other comparable terminology. Actual results may differ materially from anticipated results. Medtronic does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements or any of the information contained in this press release, including to reflect future events or circumstances. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURESThis press release contains financial measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, and organic revenue, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. References to quarterly or annual figures increasing, decreasing or remaining flat are in comparison to fiscal year 2025, and references to sequential changes are in comparison to the prior fiscal quarter. Unless stated otherwise, quarterly and annual rates and ranges are given on an organic basis. Medtronic management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding the company's underlying operational performance and trends and to facilitate comparisons with the performance of other companies in the med tech industry. Non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS exclude the effect of certain charges or gains that contribute to or reduce earnings but that result from transactions or events that management believes may or may not recur with similar materiality or impact to operations in future periods (Non-GAAP Adjustments). Medtronic generally uses non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's review of the operational performance of the company and as a basis for strategic planning. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and investors are cautioned that Medtronic may calculate non-GAAP financial measures in a way that is different from other companies. Management strongly encourages investors to review the company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial schedules accompanying this press release. Medtronic calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For instance, forward-looking organic revenue growth guidance excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, as well as significant acquisitions, divestitures, or other significant discrete items. Forward-looking diluted non-GAAP EPS guidance also excludes other potential charges or gains that would be recorded as Non-GAAP Adjustments to earnings during the fiscal year. Medtronic does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP EPS guidance to projected GAAP EPS guidance because the combined impact and timing of recognition of these potential charges or gains is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and is unavailable without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of financial performance.

MDT stock has surged 10.6% over the past year, trailing behind the S&P 500 Index ($SPX), which surged by 21.1% during the same period.

Subscribe now for quick, incisive midday market analysis you won't find anywhere else. Focusing on the industry, MDT has surpassed the S&P Healthcare Equipment SPDR's (XHE) decline of 8.3% over the past year and a 13.3% drop year-to-date. On July 21, Medtronic announced that it had received CE Mark approval for its MiniMed 780G insulin delivery system. The market initially responded cautiously, but by the next trading session, shares had risen by nearly 2.2%. For the current year, ending in April 2026, analysts anticipate MDT to achieve EPS growth of 1.1%, reaching $5.55 on a diluted basis. Notably, Medtronic has consistently beaten consensus estimates over the past four quarters. Among 30 analysts covering MDT stock, the consensus rating is a "Moderate Buy," comprising 13 "Strong Buy" ratings, one "Moderate Buy," 15 "Holds," and one 'Strong Sell.' The current analyst sentiment is slightly more bullish than two months ago, when MDT had a total of 12 "Strong Buy" ratings. On Jul. 16, Mizuho Financial Group, Inc.'s (MFG) Anthony Petrone raised his price target from $98 to $100, while maintaining an 'Outperform' stance. He believes Medtronic is well-positioned within the medical technology sector. Similarly, on Jul. 15, Morgan Stanley (MS) bumped its price target from $98 to $107, reaffirming its 'Overweight' rating. The firm sees continued relative stability in procedure volumes and capital spending trends across hospitals as a reason to stay constructive on the industry, and on Medtronic in particular. The mean price target of $95.83 represents a 7.2% premium to MDT's current price levels. Meanwhile, the Street-high price target of $110 suggests a potential upside of 23.1%.
