  • Q2 2026 revenue hit $1.31 billion, with gross margin expanding to 64.1%.
  • Dexcom expects about 50% US customer conversion to G7 15 Day by year-end 2026.

What critics are saying

  • Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre keeps pressuring Dexcom pricing, reimbursement, and US share in 2026.
  • Dexcom’s 2025 Abbott truce ends courtroom leverage, leaving product execution as defense.
  • If Abbott undercuts G7 adoption, Dexcom’s premium-margin story collapses by 2027.

What makes Dexcom unique

  • Dexcom G7 15 Day won Health Canada authorization on 2026-07-13.
  • Dexcom now connects CGM data with Health2Sync across Australia and Singapore.

Dexcom, Health2Sync partner on diabetes care in Asia.

Dexcom, Health2Sync partner on diabetes care in Asia. Mon, 24th Aug 2026 (Today) Dexcom and Health2Sync have formed a partnership focused on diabetes care in Australia and Singapore, linking glucose monitoring with digital chronic disease management. The partnership aims to support more connected care for people living with diabetes and their healthcare providers in both markets. It also reflects a broader push to expand digital health tools across Asia-Pacific. Health2Sync operates a digital chronic disease management platform that supports about 1.7 million users across the region. The company has built a presence in several Asian markets by offering tools that help people with diabetes and healthcare teams manage long-term care through digital services. Dexcom is known for its continuous glucose monitoring systems, which track glucose levels for people living with diabetes. The tie-up with Health2Sync reflects growing demand for connected healthcare technologies that support care coordination, simplify clinical workflows and enable more tailored approaches to chronic disease management. Regional push The deal gives Dexcom another partnership in Asia-Pacific as digital health companies seek to integrate monitoring devices with software platforms used by patients and clinicians. Australia and Singapore are both exploring greater use of remote monitoring and data-driven management for chronic conditions. Diabetes remains a major long-term health issue across the region, driving demand for systems that connect patient data with clinical decision-making. Companies in the sector have increasingly focused on linking devices, apps and care teams rather than offering standalone products. Health2Sync's scale in the region may give Dexcom access to a wider digital care network, while Dexcom's monitoring products add a stream of glucose data that can be incorporated into patient management. The companies have not disclosed commercial terms or product integration details. The announcement did not specify which Dexcom products or Health2Sync services would be included first in Australia and Singapore. It also did not say when any integrated offering would become available to users or healthcare providers. Company comments Both companies framed the partnership around a shared view that diabetes care can benefit from more connected management models. They said the arrangement is intended to help healthcare professionals and people living with diabetes access smarter, more connected ways to manage the condition. No financial details were released. The companies also did not outline any regulatory steps, local distribution arrangements or clinical partnerships tied to the agreement. More information is expected later. For now, the main disclosed fact is that Dexcom and Health2Sync are aligning their diabetes-related offerings across Australia and Singapore.
