## Risks

ResMed is exposed to demand shifts in sleep apnea and respiratory care, where adoption depends on diagnosis rates, reimbursement, and provider workflows. The business also faces supply chain, inflation, foreign exchange, and product development risks because it relies on global manufacturing, international sales, and ongoing innovation. Software and device businesses also carry cybersecurity, regulatory, and litigation exposure typical of healthcare technology companies.

- **Foreign exchange volatility** [high] — International sales and software revenue are translated into U.S. dollars.
- **Supply chain disruption** [high] — Device and mask production depends on components, logistics, and manufacturing continuity.
- **Inflation in input and freight costs** [medium] — Higher costs can pressure pricing and operating efficiency if not offset.
- **Regulatory and product liability exposure** [high] — Medical devices and software are subject to healthcare regulation and claims risk.
- **Cybersecurity and data privacy** [high] — Cloud-based monitoring and care software handle sensitive patient and provider data.

- Demand depends on diagnosis, reimbursement, and therapy adoption
- Foreign exchange can affect reported revenue and margins
- Supply chain disruptions can affect device availability and costs
- Inflation may raise freight, wage, and input costs
- Regulatory, product liability, and litigation risks are inherent in medtech

## Accounting

Key accounting areas include revenue recognition across device sales, consumables, and SaaS subscriptions, which can differ in timing and margin profile. Investors should also watch estimates for warranty obligations, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, contingencies, and foreign currency hedging because these can materially affect reported results and comparability.

- **Revenue recognition** — Affects quarterly comparability and mix between product and software revenue
- **Warranty obligations** — Impacts cost of sales and accrued liabilities
- **Goodwill and intangible assets** — Can create non-cash charges if expected cash flows weaken
- **Foreign currency hedging** — Can affect other income/expense and balance sheet volatility
- **Contingencies and legal proceedings** — May affect expenses and liabilities if outcomes change

- Revenue timing differs between device sales and software subscriptions
- Warranty and inventory reserves depend on product quality and demand
- Goodwill and intangibles require impairment testing
- Foreign currency hedges affect reported earnings and balance sheet items
- Legal contingencies and purchase obligations can affect future cash needs
