Sharpens Resmed’s focus on high-growth sleep and connected care markets
SAN DIEGO, July 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Resmed (NYSE: RMD, ASX: RMD), the leading health technology company focused on sleep, breathing and care delivered in the home, today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its MatrixCare business to Frazier Healthcare Partners, a private equity firm focused exclusively on health care.
This move reflects Resmed’s 2030 strategy by focusing on high-growth, scalable opportunities in sleep health, breathing health and connected home-based healthcare. The divestiture also strengthens Resmed’s ability to reallocate capital and resources toward innovation, operational scale and long-term value creation across its connected, home-based care ecosystem.
MatrixCare provides software solutions to more than 15,000 providers and supports skilled nursing, senior living and long-term care, life planning communities and home health and hospice care.
“Today’s announcement is about our disciplined approach to portfolio management and our commitment to driving long-term growth,” said Mick Farrell, Chairman and CEO of Resmed. “By focusing on areas where we see the greatest opportunity for sleep health innovation and impact, we are strengthening our ability to deliver life-changing health technologies, improve patient outcomes and create value for our stakeholders. We are confident MatrixCare and its affiliated businesses will continue to support team members and drive growth under new ownership with a dedicated focus on the long-term care market.”
“Frazier has spent several years evaluating the post-acute care technology sector and believes MatrixCare has established itself as a leading platform serving skilled nursing, senior living and home health and hospice providers,” said Ryan Lucero, General Partner at Frazier Healthcare Partners. “We are thrilled to partner with the MatrixCare team and plan to invest aggressively in product innovation to help providers deliver better outcomes as the post-acute care landscape continues to evolve.”
The transaction includes MatrixCare and related software offerings historically sold under the MatrixCare brand, including Healthcare First, Citus and home health and hospice solutions (collectively defined as the “MatrixCare business”). It excludes Resmed’s other software businesses, Brightree in the U.S. and MEDIFOX DAN in Germany.
The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of Resmed’s fiscal year 2027, subject to required regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. Until closing, MatrixCare will continue to operate as part of Resmed, with no changes to customer service or support.
Resmed is providing additional information regarding this transaction through a Form 8-K furnished with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Supplementary materials related to this press release are available on Resmed’s Investor Relations website at investor.resmed.com.
