Don't miss out on the headlines from Stockhead. Followed categories will be added to My News.
Vital Signs is a podcast series focused on investing, hosted by Senior Health and Biotech journalist Nadine McGrath.
In this episode Nadine chats to Gordon Haid, the Global Neuro-Imaging Business Director of Compumedics (ASX:CMP), a medical device company focused on diagnostic tech for sleep, brain and blood flow monitoring.
Founded in 1987, Compumedics' strategy was initially focused on developing its core competency, Sleep Diagnostics.
The company even set up Australia's first ever fully computerised sleep clinic.
Today, Compumedics has evolved into one of the world's leading suppliers of medical technology for sleep, neuro diagnostics and ultrasonic blood flow monitoring, with products distributed to clients around the globe, helping millions of people who suffer from debilitating sleep, neurological and other healthcare problems.
This podcast was developed in collaboration with Compumedics, a Stockhead advertiser at the time of publishing.
The interviews and discussions in this podcast are opinions only and not financial or investment advice. Listeners should obtain independent advice based on their own circumstances before making any financial decisions.

Stock Tips: Never mind the alpha, what's the Sigma play this week?
It's no easy gig analysing share prices and company performance but somebody's got to do it. Every week two experts from our Share Tips columnist pool give us their recommendations. Sean Conlan – Leyland Private Asset Management BUY Sigma Healthcare (ASX:SIG) We believe SIG will grow into its current PE multiple by refurbishing existing Chemist Warehouse stores, opening 20 new stores per annum across Australia and by exporting the brand offshore. Judo Capital Holdings (ASX:JDO) Improved funding costs give us more comfort on the near-term margin outlook. With forecast a~34% earnings CAGR over the next three years, and trading at only 12x FY26 P/E we think the valuation is attractive. HOLD Treasury Wine Estates (ASX:TWE) TWE has trimmed guidance for FY25 earnings growth, citing lower-than-expected wine sales in the US where economic uncertainty is hurting consumer demand. Austal (ASX:ASB) We remain positive on the long-term outlook for ASB, considering the macro tailwinds and attractive growth profile, however, we are conscious of its current valuation. SELL Bank of Queensland (ASX:BOQ) While BOQ's simplification strategy and pivot towards business is bearing fruit, we think it will continue to struggle to make returns above the cost of capital over the medium term. Lovisa Holdings (ASX:LOV) We are concerned about the quality of stores recently opened and think that higher-than-normal rates of discounting may be driving strong LFL sales. Chris Watt – Bell Potter Securities BUY CAR Group (CAR) Resilient RV sales, solid international operations and strong earnings momentum support continued growth. The company continues to benefit from a scalable global expansion strategy that allows it to replicate its model across international markets. Treasury Wine Estates (ASX:TWE) While the US premium wine market is weak, core luxury brands remain strong. DAOU Vineyards synergies and broader international opportunities provide upside despite recent downgrades. HOLD Technology One (ASX:TNE) A strong first-half result confirms the business is executing well, with growing recurring revenue and cash flow. However, recent share price gains limit short-term upside. James Hardie (ASX:JHX) Strategy execution in US new construction is on track, particularly in the southern states. That said, macro softness and affordability challenges persist. SELL IDP Education (ASX:IEL) Deteriorating student volumes and shifting global immigration policy have led to significant earnings downgrades. Visibility remains poor, and risks are elevated. Cettire (ASX:CTT) Weak margins, US tariff headwinds, and a soft cash position point to a challenging outlook. The path to profitability appears longer and riskier.
