Описание: Financial Investigations: The Truth Behind the Ticker.
DexCom (DXCM) delivered a record quarter financially, but that success was overshadowed by a devastating FDA Warning Letter and critical short reports. We investigate the core conflict: Does the massive, untapped Type 2 diabetes market justify the high-stakes risk of the company's internal quality control issues?

We break down the financial impact of the margin decline, the severity of the regulatory findings, the allegations of patient safety failures, and the competitive fight against Abbott (Libre) in the battle for the basal and OTC markets.
