A Review of the Five Largest Orthopedic Companies' 1Q:04 Financial Results
BY JOHN CHOPACK, MAY 17, 2004
We tabulated the five largest general orthopedic companies' financial results for the 1Q:04. The companies include Stryker, Zimmer, Biomet, Smith & Nephew and Wright Medical, each of which has a market capitalization in excess of $1 billion. Although many subscribers will use the table to compare one against each other, we feel that the most interesting aspect of the data is the cumulative results. During the 1Q:04 the cumulative revenues for the five companies totaled $2.8 billion, which was a 21% increase over the 1Q:03. Earnings increased by 31% over the 1Q:03 with net profit margins increasing by 120 basis points to 15.5%. In addition, the cumulative market capitalization increased from $39 million to $59 million — a 50% return during the trailing 12 months.
With a 20% increase in revenues, a 30% increase in earnings and a 50% return on investment, it is clear that orthopedics is a sector that deserves attention!
