Description: EW Edwards Lifesciences September 29, 2025
Edwards Lifesciences (NYSE:EW) develops and sells minimally invasive cardiovascular devices, including the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) SAPIEN system, the mitral/tricuspid repair platforms PASCAL PRECISION and Cardioband, and a suite of surgical structural-heart products under the INSPIRIS brand such as RESILIA tissue valves and the KONECT conduit. The firm markets its portfolio worldwide through a direct sales force and independent distributors, and has been operating since 1958 from its Irvine, California headquarters.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $5.2 billion, driven by a 12 % year-over-year increase in TAVR sales, which now represent roughly 45 % of the U.S. TAVR market share. The company’s pipeline includes next-generation RESILIA tissue technologies that aim to extend valve durability, a critical factor as the aging global population (projected to exceed 1.5 billion people over 65 by 2030) fuels demand for less invasive cardiac interventions. A material economic driver is Medicare’s evolving reimbursement policy for TAVR, which can materially affect pricing power and adoption rates.
