DexCom is a medical device company primarily focused on the design, development and commercialization of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems. Co.'s product candidates include Dexcom G7®, which is designed with the goal of carrying forward many of the same features as Co.'s G6 CGM system and adding several new or improved features. Co.'s products include: DexCom G6® integrated Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (G6), which is a type of CGM system to be used as part of an integrated system with other medical devices and electronic interfaces; and DexCom Share®, which transmit glucose information to the cloud and then to apps on the mobile devices of up to five designated recipients. The DXCM YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the DXCM YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether DXCM YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the DXCM YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
