Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Sean, thank you everyone for joining us. Today, we reported another great quarter for Dexcom, with first quarter organic revenue growth of 25%, compared to the first quarter of 2023. Demand for Dexcom CGM remains very high as customers continue to recognize and value our leading product performance and differentiated user experience. While it has only been a year since the launch of G7 in the US, we have seen a significant shift in the landscape over that time.

We have attracted tens of thousands of new prescribers to our ecosystem, meaningfully improved our presence within primary care, and experienced growing demand from people with diabetes who are benefiting from significant expansions in coverage over the last year. Much of this momentum can be directly attributed to our product performance and innovative features. With the launch of G7, we extended our leadership in sensor accuracy and took a significant step forward in ease of use. We also introduced a new software ecosystem which was designed to improve our user experience, and drive high levels of customer engagement and retention.

Importantly, we have continued to enhance the G7 experience with ongoing improvements to both the hardware and software platforms. In fact, we have completed software updates almost monthly since the launch of G7, introducing new features, upgrading performance and connectivity, and, most recently, establishing the ability to integrate insulin data into our app. These are great examples of how our new software architecture enables much faster innovation. We are constantly working to advance the customer experience and reinforce Dexcom as the technology leader in this space.

Along those lines, we were very excited to receive clearance by the FDA for our direct-to-watch feature for G7 in the first quarter. This approval will allow our customers to use their Apple Watch as a primary display rather than connecting through their mobile phone, providing even greater flexibility in how and where they interact with their glucose data. This added to our long list of industry firsts, as G7 is the first FDA-cleared CGM that can communicate directly from sensor to watch. To enable this, we built a robust connectivity infrastructure into the design of G7.

With the ability to connect to three different Bluetooth devices at the same time, our customers can simultaneously connect to a phone, a pump or receiver, and a watch. Dexcom is the only CGM system that gives customers these options. We have received great feedback since we launched our direct-to-watch software in the UK and Ireland, and look forward to extending it to additional markets shortly. Features like these add to our standing as the innovator in the CGM industry, strengthening our sensor platform as global access and awareness continue to expand.

As a reminder, we recently crossed the one-year mark since the landmark CMS decision to expand coverage for all people using insulin and certain non-insulin-using individuals that struggle with hypoglycemia. This decision paved the way for greater commercial coverage for these populations, further strengthening our position as the most covered CGM in the US. It also served to broaden our conversations with payers. While payers have long recognized Dexcom's ability to help titrate insulin, there is now a growing appreciation for our ability to drive better outcomes through behavior change and customer engagement.

There is also a growing awareness of these benefits in the clinical community. With much broader coverage now available, many physicians have started incorporating Dexcom CGM earlier into their customer care plans. They recognize lifestyle management as a cornerstone of the diabetes care and metabolic health landscapes and see CGM as a core tool to drive behavior alongside new drug therapies, like GPL-1s. To that point, in the second quarter, we will be launching a medication logging module and activity integration tool with the G7 app to help those using Dexcom CGM with these therapies.

While this has helped us significantly expand our prescriber base over the past year, we are still only scratching the surface of this sizable opportunity. There are over 200,000 primary care physicians in the US who treat tens of millions of people with diabetes. There remains a clear opportunity for us to deepen our presence within this channel as we work to drive even greater care for their patients. As a result, we announced an expansion of our salesforce this past quarter.

We were blown away by the level of interest and the quality of talent that we were able to attract for these roles. By the end of the first quarter, we had already completed our hiring and trained these new reps. This team is excited to hit the ground running, and we look forward to seeing them build momentum over the course of the year. As part of this initiative, beginning in the second quarter, we are also taking steps to optimize the structure of our sales team to be most effective with our call points across endocrinologists and primary care physicians, as well as leading practitioners in maternal-fetal medicine.

We expect our new team in this upgraded structure to help us better capitalize on the significant opportunities ahead. Along those lines, we hit another significant milestone in our company's history, with the FDA's clearance of our newest product, Stelo, the first glucose biosensor approved for use without a prescription in the US. Recognizing a significant unmet need for the 25 million people with type 2 diabetes who are not on insulin or at risk of severe hypoglycemia, we developed Stelo as a more tailored solution for this population, and work closely with the FDA to simplify access to this product. By removing the burden of a prescription, we expect Stelo to draw broad interest from both the clinical community and directly from members of the diabetes community who want to better understand their blood sugar.

In our dialogue with the FDA, it became clear that iCGM accuracy remains critically important in establishing this new sensor category, both as a safety measure and to ensure that our customers are receiving reliable, actionable information. Stelo will leverage the industry-leading accuracy of our G7 sensor hardware while providing a custom software experience to more directly meet the needs of those not taking insulin. We're on track to launch Stelo this summer as a 15-day cash-pay product, and will continue to build our case with payers for broader coverage. Stelo will be fulfilled initially via a brand-new e-commerce website, and available in one-time purchases or subscription models.

We look forward to providing greater detail on Stelo features, including pricing, immediately before launch, and we'll share further updates on our go-to-market strategy and ordering process at ADA and on our second quarterearnings call In our international business, we also advanced some key strategic initiatives this past quarter. In February, we officially launched Dexcom ONE Plus into eight European markets, which is our first step in moving our entire Dexcom ONE product line into the G7 form factor. This transition brings several of the G7 technological benefits to this customer base, such as the smaller form factor, shorter warm-up time, and improved accuracy, and further simplifies the prescribing process for physicians.

Moving to a shared hardware platform also benefits our cost structure over time as it allows us to drive greater volume to our G7 lines and more quickly reach scale. We also completed our transition to a direct sales model in Japan, enabling us to begin commercial operations at the start of the second quarter. As a reminder, this is one of the only markets in the world with coverage for all people using insulin, which represents over 1 million people. Despite this, market penetration remains in its early stages, and we see a significant opportunity to drive greater uptake in Dexcom CGM share.

As a result, we believe Japan can become a key growth driver for us over time as we strengthen our presence in this market in the coming quarters. This is an incredibly exciting time for us. There will be a lot to learn with the launch of Stelo, and we are thrilled to once again pioneer the CGM industry with a new subset of users. We look forward to sharing more updates with you as we begin this journey.

With that, I will turn it over to Jereme for a review of the first quarter financials. Jereme?

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Thank you, Kevin. As a reminder, unless otherwise noted, the financial metrics presented today will be discussed on a non-GAAP basis. Reconciliations to GAAP can be found in today's earnings release, as well as on our IR website. For the first quarter of 2024, we reported worldwide revenue of $921 million, compared to $741 million for the first quarter of 2023, representing growth of 24% on a reported basis and 25% on an organic basis.

As a reminder, our definition of organic revenue excludes the impact of foreign exchange in addition to our non-CGM revenue acquired or divested in the trailing 12 months. US revenue totaled $653 million for the first quarter, compared to $526 million in the first quarter of 2023, representing growth of 24%. Our recent momentum in the US continued this quarter as we again benefited from the largest expansion of reimbursed coverage in our company's history. This led to another quarter of significant new customer demand in the US and contributed to our record new start quarter globally.

As Kevin mentioned, we are excited to build on this momentum with our expanded sales force and look forward to seeing the new team ramp up in the months ahead. International revenue grew 24%, totaling $268 million in the first quarter. International organic revenue growth was 26% for the first quarter. We executed very well across our international footprint and again took market share this quarter, benefiting from our targeted access expansion and product portfolio strategy.

We delivered a particularly strong quarter in our core European markets, which more than offset the pause in growth from Japan as we finalized its transition to direct sales. Our first quarter gross profit was $569 million or 61.8% of revenue compared to 63.4% of revenue in the first quarter of 2023. This gross margin result was in line with our expectations as G7 continues to become a larger part of our product mix. As a reminder, G7 carries a lower margin than G6 today, but we expect this to change in the coming quarters as we drive more volume through our G7 lines in the US and Malaysia.

Between the continued G7 demand, our pump integrations, and moving Dexcom ONE to the G7 platform, we continue to see more of our base moving to the G7 form factor. Operating expenses were $428.9 million for Q1 of 2024 compared to $391.2 million in Q1 of 2023. This quarter was another demonstration of our ability to generate significant operating leverage as we grow. In fact, we grew our revenue at more than double the rate of operating expenses in the first quarter, resulting in more than 600 basis points of opex leverage compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Operating income was $140.2 million, or 15.2% of revenue in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $78.6 million or 10.6% of revenue in the same quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA was $220.9 million or 24% of revenue for the first quarter, compared to $145.9 million or 19.7% of revenue for the first quarter of 2023. Net income for the first quarter was $128.2 million or $0.32 per share. We remain in a great financial position, closing the quarter with approximately $2.9 billion of cash and cash equivalents on the back of nearly doubling our free cash flow year over year.

This provides us significant flexibility to both support our organic growth opportunities and assess any strategy uses of capital. From a capacity perspective, we remain in a great position with Malaysia quickly scaling, and we are further diversifying our footprint with the build-out of our Ireland facility. This leaves us well-positioned to support our near-term growth opportunities, including the highly anticipated launch of Stelo this summer. Turning to guidance, we are raising the midpoint of our revenue guidance with an updated range of $4.20 billion to $4.35 billion, representing organic growth of 17% to 21% for the year.

For margins, we are reaffirming our prior full year guidance of non-GAAP gross profit margin in a range of 63% to 64%, non-GAAP operating margin of approximately 20%, and adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 29%. With that, we can open up the call for Q&A. Sean?

Sean Christensen -- Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations

Thank you, Jereme. As a reminder, we ask our audience to limit themselves to only one question at this time, and then reenter the queue if necessary. Abby, please provide the Q&A instructions.

Questions & Answers:

Operator

Thank you. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. [Operator instructions] And we will take our first question from Danielle Antalffy with UBS. Your line is open.

Danielle Antalffy -- UBS -- Analyst

Hey, good afternoon, everyone. Thanks so much for taking the question, and congrats on a strong start to the year. Kevin, so the Stelo over-the-counter clearance was obviously one of the most exciting things that we saw happen in the first quarter. Can you help us understand how you think the OTC label expand your addressable market, and how you're aligning the new sales team to capitalize on it?

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Well, thank you for the question. And it's been every bit as exciting for us as it's been -- as you can imagine, Danielle. We have had more media impressions, and inquiries, and buzz about Stelo from the outside than really anything we've ever done, it's been spectacular. We're very excited for it.

The way it expands our access, since we thought through this, there's 25 million people with type 2 diabetes who are not on insulin or who don't suffer from severe hypoglycemia. We wanted to get that product out quickly and make it very accessible to them. We studied this, we spent a lot of time thinking about it. The best way to do that is to eliminate the prescription process, and not to have them in the middle of that with physicians.

And that's also helpful for their healthcare providers because they don't have to call the pharmacy and do prescriptions as well, so the key to this and particularly in getting to a lot of people is to make this very easy to obtain. And that's why we went over the counter with it. At the same time, as I said in my remarks, we're thrilled with the labeling and the fact that we still have iCGM controls around the sensor by going over-the-counter we didn't just open up the floodgates for everybody to come in. We still have to have an incredibly good product to go do something like this.

So, we think we have a very, very good advantage there. With respect to our sales expansion, I made a couple of comments about the expansion and positioning of the salesforce. We know for a fact that when we have coverage in the physician arena when we call on doctors we do extremely well. And so, as we repositioned our salesforce, I talked about repositioning between endocrinology, primary care, and also the maternal and fetal medicine markets as well.

We've repositioned our group to whereby our -- we have specialists who spend more time in the endocrinology offices and with high prescribers, not so much with those who don't prescribe a lot. And a lot of the new adds, a lot of the expansion relates to primary care, where they will talk about Stelo with primary care doctors who see almost all of the type 2 patients who aren't on insulin. So, by expanding this way, we believe we'll be able to have more coverage with the physicians as well. And so, they will take that message out and talk with the doctors as well.

But this will also be a message-driven direct-to-consumer in the same way that you see all the other type 2 products going on. Jereme, you might have a bit to add to that, too.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah, you asked the question about the salesforce, and Kevin certainly pointed to Stelo as a big part of the salesforce in expanding the TAM. And so, one of the reasons to expand is exactly as Kevin said, there's a massive opportunity there. However, there's also a massive opportunity in our existing markets. G7 is a wonderful product.

G6 is a wonderful product. There is coverage continuing to expand as well in those categories. And so, expanding the salesforce also allows us to cover more in that category. And that court of category continues to do incredibly well.

We had a record new patients quarter this quarter. And so, you could expect to see, really, growth on both ends of that as a result of the expansion of that salesforce.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Robbie Marcus with J.P. Morgan. Your line is open.

Robbie Marcus -- J.P. Morgan -- Analyst

Great. Thanks for taking the question, and congrats on a nice quarter. I wanted to talk about the leverage we saw down the P&L. It was pretty impressive.

It will be by -- like 150 bps on operating margin. So, just wanted to see how we should think about gross margin progression and operating margin progression throughout the year. I saw the reiterated guidance, but just trying to think about cadence, especially in light of the Stelo launch and the key drivers of that upside in the quarter and how we should think about that moving through the year. Thanks a lot.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah, sure, Robbie. Thanks for the question. The way to think about gross margin, and that, of course -- well, of course, yes, we talked -- when we set guidance, that this was going to look a little bit like a more typical year. And in a more typical year, you generally see 300 to 400 basis points of expansion over the course of the year.

And that's what I'd expect to see over the course of this year. A lot happened last year with the transition from G6 to G7, it's not a typical year. We had a new manufacturing facility coming online. So, as you go back into years prior to that, you see that sort of cadence.

That's how we're thinking about, at least over the course of the year right now. And so, that gives you some context for that cadence. From an op margin perspective, or at least an opex spend perspective, we've already made the investment in the salesforce. And so, that you see playing through in the first quarter, and to your point, you saw some nice leverage in the first quarter.

We will be making investments -- further investments in Japan here as we go live in the second quarter, and that will play out over the course of the year. And then, obviously associated with the launch of Stelo over the course of the summer, we'll be making investments there. So, we won't get the same leverage that you ultimately saw in the first quarter over the balance of the year. You should expect some leverage over the course of the year.

And that, ultimately, contributes down to what you see as an expansion of op margin despite a gross margin guide, there's a bit of a click back from the prior year. So, that's the way to think about it. In terms of the overperformance in Q1, I think you are alluding to the beat in terms of op margin. And I think the takeaway here is it's an encouraging sign for us.

We've demonstrated over the past few years we can drive leverage into this business. This year is no exception. All of the efforts that we've been talking about in prior years continue. However, it's a little early to change how we're thinking about the full year first quarter, as you mentioned.

Nice start to the first quarter, and we'll keep you updated on progress as the year progresses.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Larry Biegelsen with Wells Fargo. Your line is open.

Larry Biegelsen -- Wells Fargo Securities -- Analyst

Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the question. Kevin, I'd love to ask about Stelo. So, I heard your comments about an e-commerce website.

Why an e-commerce website as opposed to pharmacies and retail? Maybe talk about how you see utilization playing out. And I know the indication is only for type 2 oral patients, but do you see an opportunity beyond type 2 oral patients such as prediabetes and health-conscious people maybe down the road? Thanks for taking the question.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

I'll start with the end and go back to the website. That product is labeled for people not on insulin. And it's not necessarily labeled just for people with diabetes. We designed the experience to focus more on those with type 2 diabetes because we believe there's a very, very strong unmet need.

And a product tailored to that solution, we think, can do very well. We believe people will be interested who don't have diabetes and will, in fact, use it and will purchase it. But the focus, out of the gate, is in this marketplace where people have a direct need. Over time, we definitely see this platform and features in our software migrating toward those other markets.

We just wanted to get started here first. With respect to the website and the reason we've gone with this direct distribution model, we've had great success with it launching products in some of the international markets as we've rolled Dexcom ONE out. So, we do know how to do this. Second of all, we want a little bit of control when the launch.

When we start, we want to understand what's going on. We want to track utilization patterns. We want to see how this goes. And we felt this was the most efficient way to do it.

And as you go back to my comments, I said initially, we will launch this program. I think as this gets bigger; we'll seek other distribution channels if it's more efficient to get more product to people. We are very well positioned, and we've done a lot of work setting this website up, and then the distribution process will be extremely efficient. So, we're not concerned about being overrun.

Right now, we're in a really good position to get this product to the people who want it through the website that we've set up.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah, and then to your question on utilization, Larry it's going to be a little bit of everything. I think there's going to be some users that do use it full time. I think some folks will use it intermittently, that's based on our market research. Our market research has basically, for the most part, indicated once folks are on this product, they want to use it.

And I think we've run studies where there was a high utilization while in the study and a high request to continue utilization post-study. That all being said, as we think about modeling, we want to make sure we're prudent in doing so. And so, we have a variety of utilization patterns that we'll ultimately put out there. So, I think we expect a little bit of everything.

That population is so big, you'll get, I think, a grab bag of everything. Fortunately, we always are surprised by the positive of how often folks want to wear these things.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Joanne Wuensch with Citibank. Your line is open.

Joanne Wuensch -- Citi -- Analyst

Thank you very much for taking the question, and congrats on the quarter. With a 15-day Stelo out in the market, what are the steps to bringing a 15-day sensor onto the G6 or G7 platform? And what are the economics of moving to that time frame? Thank you.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. First of all, there won't be any G6 15-day. We're not going to spend any more money on G6. I can assure you of that.

One of the reasons we're launching Stelo within 15 days in our current G7 platform is to learn its performance in this type of environment. As we've talked earlier, we have a level of performance and reliability and expectations of our customers. We wanted to make sure we delivered those, and we felt more comfortable at 10 days to start. We have numerous clinical efforts and R&D efforts to move the platform to 15 days for all the G7 products, and including Dexcom ONE Plus in our international markets at some point in time.

As we've said in our guidance and what we've done, that's not anticipated for 2024, but it's certainly anticipated not long after that. So, you'll hear and see more about that over time. The economics are quite simple. You're selling two sensors over a 30-day period rather than three, so we can see a significant margin pick-up as long as we have the proper reliability.

On the other side, because if you're shipping a sensor in a FedEx box to replace one that doesn't work, you've lost all your economies of scale anyway, so we're not only looking at 15 days, making it reliable. We're looking very hard at offering the maximum, most efficient customer experience for individuals when we go to 15 days, so they're ready. And so, this delivers what we've always delivered, because in our CSAT scores and as we survey our customers, one of the things that we always hear about is how much people value that experience and the support that we give them. So, it's a combination of all those things, but scientifically, we're well down the road to having 15-day product.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Jeff Johnson with Baird. Your line is open.

Jeff Johnson -- Baird -- Analyst

Thank you. Good afternoon, guys. Congrats on the quarter. So, I wanted to ask on basal, just any visibility you can give on how that's been scaling, obviously, a record new start quarter.

This quarter, I would assume basal is contributing nicely to that. But what do the sequential patterns look like the last few quarters? Is it still sequentially growing at a pretty healthy rate, I'd assume? But any color you can provide there. And also, there's been some debate, obviously, on market share within the basal population here in the US. Just would love kind of any insights you can provide on that front as well.

Thanks.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yes, sure I can take that one. Thanks, Jeff. I think when we talked about what we expected this year, we really talked about it in the context of basal adoption across the entire population. And we talked about exiting the year right around that 15% adoption across the basal population in the US, and the year moving over the course of the year to 23%, so about eight points of penetration.

So, far through the first quarter, things are going as we expected. Record new patients, I think helps enforce that. And you are correct, a good chunk of our new patients are coming through that basal channel. And we continue to see really well performance in that category.

So, qualitatively, the things we talked about the excitement in that channel, those still remain. In terms of share-taking and how we look at that category we get script data, we look at script data based on pathology. The debate, there's no debate internally to us, we know we're taking share. And we see that data.

And I think a lot of you guys see that data. So, for what it's worth, that data is out there, you can see the scripts continuing to come our way for the purpose we talked about when we have coverage when we compete head to head, we've typically won. So, I think we can -- we may disagree with some comments out there. But I think the data is clear.

When you look at the script data, I think it'll continue to demonstrate where this is going over time. Hope that helps.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Jayson Bedford with Raymond James. Your line is open.

Jayson Bedford -- Raymond James -- Analyst

Good afternoon. Thanks. Just on Stelo. Kevin, you mentioned getting it out quickly, but you're not launching it until the summer, and certainly don't mean to be impatient.

But just outside of the Salesforce training, maybe the e-commerce setup, what else are you doing to prep for the launch? And then just does the FDA need to approve anything else? I'm thinking of an app or the like before you launch.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

No, we have full FDA approval for launch. It has been our experience over time at Dexcom. When we get a very rapid approval, we tend to become very impatient, we launch very quickly. And we've from time to time actually put ourselves in a bind by going out as quickly as we have.

We had a launch plan for this product anticipating an FDA approval when it was going to come and we're going to stick to the launch plan that we have. We have manufacturing scheduled, we have lines set up, we have molds, we have everything, packaging, everything that we need ready to go. But we're going to stick to the plan that we have. We believe our timing is good, and there's no need to rush anything.

And so, we're sticking to what we have and we're comfortable with it.

Operator

We will take our next question from Margaret Andrew with William Blair. Your line is open.

Margaret Andrew -- William Blair -- Analyst

Hey, good afternoon, guys. Thanks for taking the questions. I wanted to hit something, Kevin, I think you had said earlier in your commentary that you're seeing growing coverage and plans for patients earlier in their care. So, I just wanted to know if you're referencing basal, which obviously we've heard about is it non-insulin, pre-diabetic, non-diabetics, maybe things that are less traditional as the street thinks about that.

And then, and why -- and then as it relates to Stelo obviously there's ties to that, but just any sense of a number of people that have proactively reached out on your website right now to buy the product when it's launched. Thanks.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Well, we haven't reached out to buy it because we haven't offered it for sale, but we certainly have a lot of inquiries. And again, as you go to media impressions, articles, interviews, unsolicited stuff, and things like that, Stelo has been the biggest offering that we've had as far as news. And as our reps walk into primary care doctor offices, I just spent a bunch of time with several of our field team members. That's the question the minute they walk in the door, when am I going to see Stelo in there? And when I was at ATTD, it was interesting.

Many of the physicians came up to me and said, how does Stelo affect me in my practice? So, there is a lot of interest, and there is a lot of buzz on that. As far as using CGM earlier in treatment, we're certainly seeing that with basal. We're seeing that as somebody goes on basal insulin, look, you're going on basal insulin. You just as well use a sensor to know how this is affecting your body so you can learn, and so we can titrate your basal insulin the way it needs to be.

And we're looking at product offerings and software enhancements to make that experience better. But even in the type 1 population, Margaret, you now see kids leave the hospital with their Dexcom. They get diagnosed; they go to the hospital. And again, I talked with someone this morning, even the six-year-old was diagnosed and left the hospital wearing a Dexcom because there's no way that they were told they could manage this disease without it.

So, we have definitely become a product and offering that comes into play very, very quickly. I also think we see, particularly if there's coverage with somebody with type 2 diabetes who's not using insulin, the physician knows the patient can get it, they'll get it to them and use it as a teaching aid, as a tool to help these people manage their condition. Across the board, CGM is becoming used earlier in treatment over and over again.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. And Margaret, this is one of the reasons why when we, last year, I think we talked a little bit about this, is we introduced a cash pay option on our G-Series. One of the reasons in doing so is, as Kevin alluded to, really, across the spectrum of managing your diabetes, there's been more interest. And so, those plans that do have pockets that do cover everybody with diabetes and the cash pay option have -- there has been some uptake.

There's certainly not a majority of our uptake and certainly not the materiality of our customer base, but the interest is there. And so, you continue to see that taking place. It's why we're so bullish on Stelo, back to Kevin's point, why there's so much inbound interest in that product. So, hopefully, that gives you some context.

There's a groundswell of attention to this and rightfully so, it can help a lot of people.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Matt Taylor with Jefferies. Your line is open.

Matt Taylor -- Jefferies -- Analyst

Hi, thank you for taking the question. I wanted to ask you kind of a combined question. When you were talking about moving earlier in the treatment paradigms and also with Stelo coming out, and obviously you've got plans to try to broaden coverage and have these conversations with payers about how that may benefit patients. So, the question is really, are you seeing signs from the payers that you could actually get coverage for the G-Series and/or for Stelo in some other format this year, basically earlier in the treatment paradigms than basal? And how long do you think it will take to get any kind of coverage officially?

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah, so it's a fair question. There are some plans out there that actually do cover really all folks with diabetes. It's not a majority of plans, but these plans have seen early on the value of CGM as a lifestyle change, a preventative tool, and something that ultimately yields results back to the system. And it's the same economics we've talked to you about before.

And so, some plans have done that. Again, it's not the majority. In terms of your question, though, more broad coverage, or how do we introduce that earlier? I don't think we expect that to expand significantly this year. Certainly, plan by plan you get wins here and there, but those aren't the majority of the national formularies at this point.

And so, I think the work has to continue to take place. I think one of the reasons why we did want to get Stelo out there is because the data that's going to come up, in addition to all the clinical trials that are underway, the clinical work that's underway that consistently do along with our partner organizations, having that real-world data, I think, will be really helpful in demonstrating to payers and employers why this is a good tool to ultimately improve health and reduce costs at the end of the day. So, I don't expect it in 2024. If you asked us for the timeline, Kevin's been very clear.

The two- to three-year window we think it takes to do so, we're highly incentivized to go quickly. Nevertheless, it's something we'll continue to work on and keep you posted on our progress as we make progress.

We will take our next question from Mathew Blackman with Stifel. Your line is open.

Mathew Blackman -- Stifel Financial Corp. -- Analyst

Hi. Good afternoon, everybody. Can you hear me OK?

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Yes.

Mathew Blackman -- Stifel Financial Corp. -- Analyst

OK, great. Maybe, Jereme, this question for you, I know you're not going to give me precision here, but I'll ask anyway. Just on G7, where are we even in the roughest sense in terms of the mix of the installed base? And I guess, the more important question is, what's the tipping point for gross margin accretion in terms of G7 mix? Is that something we hit this year? Is that part of the quarter-over-quarter potential improvement to get you to the full year guide, or is that something that happens further out? And is AID integration a key component of that ramp?

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. So, here's my expectations, the way we're tracking, and again, it's going to depend on how things play out over the course of the year, but we are tracking to a point where G7, as a percentage of our overall sales, will eventually move ahead of G6, and I expect that here over the coming quarters in 2024. So, that is moving. And it's really started to -- it started moving, obviously, at the back half of last year, and having some to your point, the AID integration was very helpful for the base.

So, that is happening, and it is the reason for some of the leverage in the back half of the year. As G7 starts to be the primary product, the economies of scale start to kick in, and that's where you start to see the cost come below G6. And so, that could happen this year, and it very well could happen as we move over the -- it's going to depend on the velocity at which we move. I will tell you, Q1 was a very strong velocity in movement.

In terms of new patients coming in, and I think you guys can see it in the scripts, a majority of new patients are already moving to G7. So, the great news, is it's not a matter of if, it's when, and so it's really on converting that base. So, I think the long way to answer, yes, some of the leverage this year in gross margin is because we do expect G7 to be the majority of the product. When it gets lower, it's going to be kind of a timing thing.

We don't have an exact date, but at the velocity we're going, it's happening very quickly, and it should be a good guy. And AID will play a large part in it. It's already started with our tandem base. I know we're talking about Insulet coming up here pretty soon.

I'm excited about both of those opportunities in converting that base.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Shagun Singh with RBC. Your line is open.

Shagun Singh -- RBC Capital Markets -- Analyst

Great. Thank you so much. So, US growth was pretty strong at 24% year over year, but it was roughly in line with expectations. And so, I'm wondering if you can elaborate on pricing.

I know that's been a big focus for you guys. What were trends year over year and sequentially? And then on Stelo pricing, is it fair to assume more in line with cash pay, similar to what your competitor has indicated? Thank you.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

The Stelo pricing I'll start with, and then Jereme can jump into the other. Stelo pricing is going to be competitive. We've got a number of models we're considering. We said we'd bring you more information on that on the next call at ADA, and that's when you'll hear more.

But we'll be very competitive with other cash offerings when we launch Stelo.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. And then, to your question on Q1 in terms of pricing dynamics, the pricing dynamics are stable. We don't have a lot of contracts year over year that are changing. And when we do have those contracts in general, the pricing headwinds we do have that typical medical device headwind that's continued to play out.

So, that is stable. The one thing you do see as you get into the start of a year and benefits reset, is we do see a lot of our new patients coming through the pharmacy channel. We still have a very strong DME business, and certainly, the DME business continues to be supported by our partners very, very well. But what we find is, as we call on more and more primary care physicians who are seeing where basal patients are seen, there is a bit of a heavier tilt toward the pharmacy channel for new patients.

Again, the base is pretty stable. So, what you do find is, as you think about the mix, you do get a little bit more running through that channel given where the predominance of our new patients are coming from. We don't call that price. It's pretty consistent year over year, but it is helpful to understand those dynamics.

It's not anything new, but it's something just to continue to be mindful of as we move into a new year.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Matthew O'Brien with Piper Sandler. Your line is open.

Matthew O'Brien -- Piper Sandler -- Analyst

Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the question. And Jereme, it sounds like you have a little bit of a cold, so I hope you feel better. When I looked at the stock in the aftermarket, it's down about 8%.

You just had your easiest comp of the quarter, or of the year, I'm sorry. And then, the rest of the year just assumes a pretty nice acceleration throughout the course of the year off of tougher comps. Even when you do it on a two-year stack basis, it's still more than you just put up in Q1. I know Japan is going to be a little bit of a tailwind.

You've got a broader sales force now, but those guys take time to kick in. Stelo is not going to really kick in until Q3, Q, probably more like Q4. So, just why the confidence in being able to hit kind of the midpoint of the guidance range for the remainder of the year, just given some of these dynamics?

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yes, sure. I'm happy to provide that, Matt. And thanks for the wishes on the cold. I was trying to impress you with my deep voice.

I guess that didn't work. In terms of how the confidence on the year, one of the things that as we go into a quarter we try to set a base case, and the base case has risk around things like competitors, things like adoption in the basal base, things like what we would do in terms of channel mix and pricing, internationally expansion. And while we said Japan was going to launch, you have to be mindful of that. Talking about basal coverage and adoption outside the US, all of those go into as we set ranges for base cases.

And as some of those get knocked down, we feel much more confident about raising the base case. And so, that's the reason why we ultimately did it. We feel more confident in the base case as a floor. And so, we certainly felt good there.

We haven't talked about it yet, but I think one of the things we are really excited about is in France, we've submitted our final paperwork for Dexcom ONE Plus to launch with what we expect is basal coverage in the coming months. And so, we talked about it. It was something we thought was coming. We knew it was coming, but it was one of those things that we needed to make sure we did the appropriate steps.

So, as we start to de-risk it, that's one thing. In Germany, we have wonderful basal coverage there. It's just a wonderful, for the small population that's agreed to it. But that's a wonderful start for us in terms of now saying, well, there is a pocket of payers in Germany, albeit small, that do have basal coverage.

That's a wonderful progression for us. And we are the leader in terms of basal coverage in Germany right now. And so, these are the things that help de-risk the year that hopefully give you guys a little bit more confidence in that base case. Certainly, it gives us confidence in that base case and that's why when we come out and feel comfortable moving that up it's that confidence that we have in that base case.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Marie Thibault with BTIG. Your line is open.

Marie Thibault -- BTIG -- Analyst

Good evening, thanks for taking the questions. I wanted to ask a question here in Japan. It certainly sounds like you have really broad favorable coverage for all people using insulin. So, I want to understand where was penetration into that market with your distributor partner, and what have been the barriers.

What have really been the hurdles and what are you going to do to try to attack those?

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Our penetration with our partner was next to very small. Japan has not been a big market for us in spite of the great coverage that has just come out which is why we've gone direct and our distributor partner and us have gone our separate ways. We've had this experience in several geographies over the years and those geographies where we acquire a distributor an existing infrastructure like we did in Australia, like we did many years ago in Germany, we get out of the gate very quickly and we can grow a market very fast because we have an infrastructure already in place. With respect to Japan, it's like, some of the other geographies we're starting from scratch similar to how we well like we're doing in France.

For example, we're starting from scratch in France on our own. It will take us a while to build that growth engine and build that dynamic in Japan. I think what held us back more than anything else is we just didn't have enough infrastructure and then all fairness our distributor did what was most important for their business in their own minds and there wasn't that commitment and that drive there. There will be that commitment and drive going forward but it's going to take a while to build it.

It's not going to happen overnight. We're very confident we've hired a team that can develop the relationships necessary. Japan is very much a market driven by physician and hospital decisions. We think what we've got certainly from a leadership perspective, a team that can build those relationships and do the things that they need to do, but this can take a little while.

As I'm talking to you, if we're talking to you two years from now, I have every expectation that's going to be a very large market for us, but we'll be very successful there.

And we will take our next question from Bill Plovanic with Canaccord Genuity. Your line is open.

Bill Plovanic -- Canaccord Genuity -- Analyst

Great. Thanks for taking my questions. I was wondering if you could just comment on attrition rates, reorder rates, what have you seen with the transition to G7 from G6 and then how do we think about this in the different patient populations as we get out of the IAT patients and into the basal hypo and eventually in non-using?

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah, it's a question we've asked ourselves quite a bit. So, I'm happy to give you our thoughts on it. From G6 to G7 we've seen a relatively consistent rate. There hasn't been much of a change in terms of retention utilization across those two products and that's expected as we upgrade folks, from one to the other.

Obviously, we think the G7 experience is wonderful but so is the G6 experience and we pride ourselves on the experiences that we offer. So, that's been relatively consistent. What we've also found to date, and I think it's important to start to date, is that there isn't really as much of a difference in the populations we've served across those folks on our products today. We find that there's only really one category where retention and utilization is markedly different and it's those on AID systems.

Everybody else seems to follow a pretty similar pattern of retention and utilization and I say that to date because we are moving into new populations. We are moving more into basal. We are moving it more into non-insulin-using populations, albeit still a smaller part of our user base, and the hypothesis has always been we expect a high utilization in those spaces. We've always been positively surprised, but we are aware that as you move down the acuity curve, there is the potential opportunity for folks to use it maybe a little bit less.

That being said, we haven't seen it today, but we'll keep you posted as we're moving through what we're seeing to help you guys kind of get your arms around it. Kevin?

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Yeah, and I would add as we head into non-intensive insulin therapy, we think there could be a number of outcomes here and there could be a number of use cases for people. One of the reasons to maintain our distribution on our own website to start with is to begin to understand those patterns and to understand what the purchasing patterns, how many people prefer the subscription model versus individual one-time purchases and how often do they come back, and then use our tools to find out what the experience is like, what they liked and what they didn't. The other thing I would add with respect to retention and attrition, one of our biggest barriers, particularly back in the day, was the copays of the first quarter when everybody was in the DME world. Now that we have pharmacy coverage, that barrier has been eliminated a bit and that's not as big a reason as to why we lose a customer at this point in time as it used to be in the past.

We've been very successful in working that dynamic. The flip side is, our DME patients have very strong retention rates and very strong utilization patterns because of the attention our fine distributors pay to them. So, it's a mix of everything, Bill, but I think we're in a good spot. We will learn in a non-intensive insulin therapy world and figure out how to build product offerings that maximize our experience with those users.

And we will take our next question from Michael Polark with Wolfe Research. Your line is open.

Michael Polark -- Wolfe Research -- Analyst

Good afternoon. I wanted to ask about one of your salesforce comments, Kevin. I heard about the expansion, faster and higher quality talent than expected. Those folks are hitting the street in 2Q.

I got that. I also heard about a new team upgraded structure and it didn't quite follow what you're doing there and why it's impactful. So, if you could unpack that update for me, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Yeah, as we looked out over what we needed to accomplish and where we needed more emphasis in the field, there are a couple things that happened. Number one, we realized as we had our reps who were calling on high prescribers also calling on a number of people who weren't prescribers or doing a bunch of going and finding new prescribers that we may not be paying enough attention to our high prescribers. And so, as we've set things up, we do have a set of folks who spend more time in endocrinology and high-prescribing diabetologist world than with primary care. At the same time, we needed people to call on more primary care physicians.

Consistently, we have learned over and over again that where we call on people, we win. And so, we need to call on more folks, get more people out there. We've been much more aggressive with our sampling program over the past several months. We need to get samples to more individuals.

We need to knock on more doors and have more relationships. A third element of that is education. As we get to some of these offices where we have somebody who's only written two or three CGM scripts, we've always had certainly some account managers who are regional people used to help train patients if they don't have doctor training in the office. We made a little more investment there.

And then, last, there are many doctors, particularly as we get to Stelo and as we get more into the primary care world, who may not even see a rep. And so, we do have more of an internal salesforce, again on a regional basis, to do more of that work. So, we're trying to go broader and deeper at the same time, deeper with our high prescribers in the endocrinology world, and then broader across all aspects of primary care, including training and supporting patients.

We will take our next question from Steve Lichtman with Oppenheimer. Your line is open.

Steve Lichtman -- Oppenheimer and Company -- Analyst

Thank you, evening, guys. I wanted to ask about the non-insulin hypo at-risk group, which obviously does have coverage now and I think you've estimated before is about the same size as basal. Are the sales force expansion and moves you're making, you just alluded to, Kevin, in the commercial organization, helping with those education efforts? Any updates overall you could provide on where you're at for tapping this opportunity would be great.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Yeah, and thanks for the question. You're right, it's a big opportunity for us, but it is one that has taken a little bit more time. Obviously, the focus is on basal. It's a known quantity, but the hypoglycemia unawareness or the severe hypoglycemia event, I should say, those are harder to educate folks.

And so, to your point, one of the things that we've done, and Terry and her team have really focused on, is really creating the educational materials, and then arming the sales force accordingly to get out there. And so, if you have a situation where we are expanding our sales force and reaching broader touchpoints, where a lot of these folks are seen, right, they're seen really across the gamut of the healthcare spectrum, that expansion does allow us to get out there and educate more. But the biggest challenge is the education. It doesn't come to the top of mind for individuals and prescribers that when this event takes place, I qualify.

And that's just some more work we're going to have to continue to do on education. Again, more touchpoints, a good thing, and the team is working hard at that.

We will take our next question from Josh Jennings with TD Cowen. Your line is open.

Josh Jennings -- TD Cowen -- Analyst

Hi, good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions. Kevin, you mentioned that you'll have numerous iterations of Stelo over the course of the first 24 months of launch, and I wanted to just see if there's any other color you can provide on those iterations. And are they mostly going to be on the software side, or is one of the iterations going to be an increase in the rate of sensors lasting the full 15 days, and how important is that expansion to the success of Stelo? Thanks so much.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Well, we always work on sensor performance optimization, and we have a very, very strong program on that across the board. And Stelo is on the G7 platform, so I think we do a G7 certainly can apply to Stelo. With respect to changes that we make, I think I can go back to what I said about G7. We've literally had a software iteration every month since we launched G7, and we brought several new features into G7.

We expect a similar ramp with Stelo once we launch it, and we have a number of features on a roadmap over the next 12 months that we would add to it from a software perspective, particularly as we learn what engages people as we start. But we've been very vague and will remain vague about the features we're going to have at launch and those that we're going to add for competitive reasons. We're just not going to give everybody else a roadmap.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Matt Miksic with Barclays. Your line is open.

Matt Miksic -- Barclays -- Analyst

Great. Thank you so much for taking the question. And Kevin, I just wanted to maybe go back also to some of the comments you made earlier in the call on the Stelo approval and kind of maintaining the timeline for the launch. If you could just talk -- you said things like want to make sure our manufacturing capacity is there and don't want to rush the launch post-approval.

It would be also great to understand, just given the excitement about what this product could mean outside of the diabetes community, how you're thinking about prioritizing like supply and resources and business development, market development between those two opportunities going forward? Thanks.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Well, again, I appreciate that. And again, we're going to stick to our launch timing here. We have made great investments. We are ready to go.

We're on our schedule. We're on our plan. And we're ready to launch, though. We're ready when we launch it.

Our approval timing was very rapid. We give the FDA tremendous credit for working with us with that, and our team, great credit for submitting -- for doing a wonderful submission. They did a great job to be able to get where we got so quickly. But we are going to stick to that time frame.

And we think one of the reasons this will be successful is we will have everything lined up and ready to go the way it's supposed to be when we launch it. In all fairness, I've lived through many product launches here, and every time we go too early, I end up dealing with three days. I'm saying I because everybody's in my office with three days of inventory and what are you going to do? We are devoting the proper resources. We have several G7 manufacturing lines in Malaysia.

That factory just came up this summer. We manufacture G7 here in Arizona as well, so we've got plenty of G7 capacity and we'll be running those lines. And we have lines dedicated to Stelo, and we'll go there. But we're going to stick to our plan.

We're very comfortable with it. We'll be ready to go when it's time.

Jereme Sylvain -- Chief Financial Officer

We think about resource allocation, and there's obviously a combination of resources, which is what Kevin referred to as supply. And that's absolutely something we have the capacity to go after it. But in terms of resource allocation, then on the support, right, and what do we do from a sales and marketing and where do the resources go? We're making the decisions that really quite frankly are in the best interest of returns to the company and then serving the unmet needs. So, expect us to continue to look at that accordingly.

One of the things we are doing this year, and I think you can see we've made it a priority, is as we go through the organization and drive efficiencies, it allows us to reinvest in the business. And all those efficiencies we've been able to get in working through leverage in the business has allowed us to do all the work we're doing around Stelo, which includes all of our launch plans. So, we'll continue to do the robust work that we do around resource allocation. It's really important for us to do so in order to continue to scale, but also to scale efficiently and appropriately.

Operator

And we will take our final question from Mike Kratky with Leerink Partners. Your line is open.

Mike Kratky -- Leerink Partners -- Analyst

Hi, everyone. Thanks for taking our question. How are you thinking about the possibility of seeing additional pricing pressure for G7 as one of your competitors starts to get AID integration, which has historically been part of your value proposition for payers?

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Well, again, that's also on a geographical basis. In the US, we're very comfortable with our pricing contracts. That's been very consistent over the course of several years. When you look at the product offerings in the AID world, and if you compare what we have to offer, we offer a number of features that make our offering much superior to anything else that's going to be out there.

With Dexcom, patients can connect three devices at the same time. They have the Share follow system, they can connect to the phone, and they can now connect directly to Apple Watch. We're very comfortable with our pricing position here over time, and our pricing is set up in our US contracts regardless of whether it's AID, or people use centers without it. Certainly, if we go to the tender system in Europe, there is a two-tiered system in many countries.

We offered the Dexcom ONE product there at lower price point to be able to address those in AID systems, and our AID pricing in those countries, we have prices set for G7, that are said in the tender process. So, we are very comfortable where we are in those as well.

Operator

And there are no further questions at this time. I'll now turn the call back to Mr. Kevin Sayer for closing remarks.

Kevin Sayer -- Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, everybody, for participating in our call today. This really was a great quarter for DexCom as we continue to drive the most important innovations in our industry. We are continuing to widen the gap between DexCom and our competitors by driving more first in our CGM user experience, particularly in the G7 platform. Direct to Watch has been the most requested addition through our experience, ever since we launched G5 many years ago, and now it's here.

Our users are going to be able to, as I just articulated, have an incredibly discrete experience with CGM on Apple Watch only, and that will include all of our Share follow system as well. So, imagine again, a parent who wants to send their kid to school without a phone, they'll be able to do everything on a watch that they used to be able to do on their phone. Access to CGM on a global basis continues to expand. We are very well-positioned with our product portfolio to win these opportunities.

And lastly, I just want to talk a bit about Stelo. We went from a December filing with the FDA on Stelo to a March approval for the first over-the-counter CGM product platform in the United States. This is going to greatly enhance the lives of many, many people, and we will learn so much about it during this launch in 2024. We will be very well-positioned in '25 and years going forward.

And let's not forget the theme of this call, we continue to deliver outstanding worldwide top-line growth, and continued strong operating margin expansion, at the same time, we have not at all skimmed on investing in our future products and R&D, and we have a very strong commitment to creating the scale necessary to drive this business where it needs to get and pursue all of our opportunities. Thanks, everybody, and we appreciate your support on the call today.
