Executive summary

Edwards Lifesciences develops and sells medical devices for structural heart disease and critical care. Its best-known products are transcatheter heart valves, which can replace a diseased valve without open-heart surgery, along with surgical valves and hemodynamic monitoring systems used in hospitals. Revenue comes from selling these devices to hospitals and healthcare providers, and results depend on clinical adoption, reimbursement and regulatory approvals.

Revenue over the last twelve months was $6.5 billion, and it grew 10.8% a year over the past three years. The business shows an operating margin of 22.3% and a return on invested capital of 15%. Net debt to EBITDA is -2.3 times, which means cash exceeds debt. The company does not pay a dividend.

StocksXray gives Edwards Lifesciences Corp an X-Ray Score of 55 out of 100 (high confidence), ahead of 60% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is financial health (76) and its weakest is valuation (27).

Our fair value (the average of the valid models) is $80.66 (range $80.44 to $94.36). At $90.09 the stock trades 12% above that value, so the label is "Fair" with medium model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value is the average of up to 15 valuation models, most of them anchored to the company's own multiples, so it stays near the price and should be read as a range, not a point. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
