Insulet‘s stock has performed well over the past year, but how does it truly stack up against peers in the rapidly evolving diabetes tech market? A closer look reveals market-leading revenue growth and solid operating margins, yet a premium valuation. This combination suggests limited upside if larger, more diversified players like Medtronic or new innovators gain traction.

  • PODD’s operating margin of 17.3% is strong, lower than WST (20.9%) due to WST’s high-value proprietary pharmaceutical containment systems.
  • PODD’s 27.1% revenue growth, driven by strong Omnipod 5 adoption, outpaces MDT, DXCM, WST, HOLX, and TNDM.
  • PODD’s stock gained 17.4% and trades at a PE of 89.4, implying high future growth; diversified MDT delivered stronger returns.
