In MedTech, pricing power is rarely about the machine — it is about what the machine consumes.
Research spending is how a device company keeps its installed base current, but spending alone proves nothing.
MedTech companies grow by acquisition, and the resulting intangible amortisation depresses reported earnings without consuming any cash.
Devices are sold into hospitals and labs through committees, tenders and long qualification cycles, which makes the sales organisation expensive and hard to replicate.
Serial acquirers carry debt, and the question is whether the cash flows underneath it are dependable enough to service it through a downturn.
Growth durability separates an expanding installed base from a good product cycle.

The score is a weighted composite of 6 competitive defenses, each measured against industry peers of 159 companies in Medical Devices.
Xylo Technologies Ltd. ranks #159 of 160 scored companies in Medical Devices by moat score. The widest moat in Medical Devices is iRadimed Corporation (IRMD) at 83/100. The companies ranked closest are Surmodics, Inc. (SRDX) at 0 just above it and Zomedica Corp. (ZOM) at 0 just below it.
Each company is scored with an industry-specific template — Medical Devices & Diagnostics in this case, chosen because the defenses that matter to a bank are not the ones that matter to a software company. Every defense combines several financial signals, and each signal is measured as a percentile against a peer group of 159 companies in Medical Devices. The defenses are then weighted to produce the overall score out of 100.
Medical device and diagnostics companies place an instrument once and then sell the consumables, reagents and service that instrument needs for the next decade. The economics are a razor-and-blade model wrapped in regulatory approval and clinician habit, so the MedTech template scores the durability of that installed base rather than the size of any single product launch.
The Medical Devices & Diagnostics template measures 6 defenses, and XYLO scores: Pricing Power & Consumable Moat (not measurable), R&D Pipeline & Capital Returns (not measurable), FCF Quality & Cash Conversion (not measurable), Commercial Execution (not measurable), Capital Structure & Resilience (not measurable), Growth Durability (not measurable). Each is scored independently as a percentile against peers, so a company can be strong on one and weak on another — the overall score reflects how those defenses are weighted for this industry.
