Quality

83

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Quality research reads 83 of 100, in the strongest band of the covered universe. The underlying fundamental measurements behind this reading are consistent rather than mixed.

Quality research measures durability of the business itself from stored fundamentals: balance-sheet strength, profitability consistency and cash generation. It is a research reading, not a prediction of future returns.

How this is measured

Fundamental Momentum

Accelerating

84

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Fundamental Momentum research reads 84 of 100. Stored measurements classify recent reported fundamentals as accelerating. This describes reported financial change already disclosed, with no forward-looking claim.

Fundamental Momentum research measures the direction of recently reported company fundamentals compared with the company's own history. It describes reported change, not future price movement.

How this is measured

Capital Returns

Moderate

48

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Capital Returns research reads 48 of 100, recorded as moderate. No dividend is recorded for this company, so the reading rests on buybacks and dilution control. Share count has been reduced at about 0.4% a year in the stored window.

Capital Returns research measures how a company has actually returned cash to shareholders: dividend record, buyback effectiveness, dilution control and how those payments were funded.

In the company’s own words

What this company does

We are a medical device company primarily focused on the design, development and commercialization of continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, systems for the management of diabetes and metabolic health by patients, caregivers, and clinicians around the world.

We received approval from the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and commercialized our first product in 2006. We launched our latest generation systems, the Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System, or G7, in 2023, and the Dexcom G7 15 Day Continuous Glucose Monitoring System, or G7 15 Day, in late 2025. In August 2024, we launched Stelo, our biosensor designed for adults with prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin, as the first over-the-counter glucose biosensor in the U.S.

Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms "we," "us," "our," the "company," or "Dexcom" refer to DexCom, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

In March 2022, we obtained Conformit Europ enne Marking, or CE Mark, approval for G7. In December 2022, we obtained marketing authorization from the FDA for the G7 via the 510(k) review process. The G7 is an integrated continuous glucose monitoring system, or iCGM, and is classified as a Class II device by the FDA, and is subject to special controls for iCGMs that outline requirements for assuring CGM accuracy, reliability and clinical relevance, and which also outlines the type of studies and data required to demonstrate acceptable CGM performance. The glucose value algorithm, ability to communicate with approved display and mobile devices, and compatibility with Dexcom Clarity, our cloud-based reporting software, are all substantially equivalent in technical performance and capability to the prior generation Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring Integrated System, or G6. The G7 is cleared in the United States for all people with diabetes ages two years and older, giving more people than ever access to a powerfully simple diabetes management solution.
