Description: SYK Stryker September 25, 2025
Stryker Corporation (NYSE: SYK) is a diversified medical-technology firm that operates two primary business segments: MedSurg & Neurotechnology and Orthopaedics. The MedSurg & Neurotechnology segment supplies a broad portfolio that includes surgical equipment, navigation and endoscopic systems, AI-enabled virtual-care platforms, acute-stroke minimally invasive devices, cranial and maxillofacial products, as well as orthobiologic materials such as synthetic bone grafts and vertebral-augmentation solutions. The Orthopaedics segment focuses on implants for total joint replacements (hip, knee, shoulder), trauma and extremities, plus thoracolumbar fixation and minimally invasive spinal systems.
The company distributes its products directly and through third-party dealers in roughly 75 countries, serving physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare facilities. Founded in 1941, Stryker is headquartered in Portage, Michigan, and has grown through both organic innovation and strategic acquisitions (e.g., the 2022 purchase of Wright Medical for $4.7 bn, expanding its trauma and extremities footprint).
Key performance indicators from the most recent FY 2023 filing show revenue of $21.0 bn (+6 % YoY), operating margin of 15.8 % (up from 14.9 % in FY 2022), and a 12-month trailing R&D spend of $1.9 bn (≈9 % of sales). The orthopaedic implant market is driven by an aging U.S. population and rising joint-replacement volumes, with the American Joint Replacement Registry estimating >1 million procedures annually-a secular tailwind that underpins Stryker’s growth outlook. However, the segment remains sensitive to reimbursement policy shifts and potential supply-chain disruptions in high-mix, low-volume surgical devices.
