Sales are surging for Insulet Corporation (PODD).
Insulet develops, manufactures, and markets the Omnipod Insulin Management System for those with Type 2 diabetes. The system is worn on the body for approximately three days at a time and allows virtually pain-free automated cannula insertion and blood glucose meter integration. The company is targeting to help 40% of U.S. patients by next year.
PODD’s third-quarter fiscal 2024 total revenue grew by 25% on the back of Omnipod adoption and international sales. Overseas sales accounted for 35% Omnipod growth. The company has ample cash for further growth, with roughly $900 million on hand and $300 million in credit. This has all led to fourth-quarter revenue growth guidance of 13%-16%.
