INTUITIVE SURGICAL ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS
SUNNYVALE, CALIF. January 23, 2014 – Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISRG), the industry leader in robotic-assisted surgery, reported revenue consistent with their January 14th press release of $576 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, down approximately 5% compared with $609 million for the fourth quarter of 2012.
Fourth quarter of 2013 instruments and accessories revenue increased 6% to $268 million from $254 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The growth in instruments and accessories revenue is the result of growth in da Vinci® surgical procedures. da Vinci surgical procedures grew approximately 12% in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the fourth quarter of 2012, driven primarily by the growth in U.S. general surgery procedures, U.S. gynecologic procedures, and urology procedures outside of the U.S.
Fourth quarter of 2013 systems revenue was $205 million, a decrease of 23% compared with $265 million during the fourth quarter of 2012. During the fourth quarter of 2013, Intuitive Surgical sold 138 da Vinci Surgical Systems compared with sales of 175 systems during the same period last year. System sales were down in the fourth quarter of 2013 primarily as a result of lower U.S. sales reflecting moderating growth in benign gynecology, combined with changing hospital capital spending priorities associated with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
Fourth quarter of 2013 service revenue increased 14% to $103 million, compared with $91 million during the fourth quarter of 2012, reflecting growth in the installed base of da Vinci Surgical Systems.
Fourth quarter of 2013 operating income decreased to $209 million, compared with $248 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. Operating results for the fourth quarter of 2013 included $42 million of non-cash share-based compensation expense, compared with $38 million for the fourth quarter of 2012.
Intuitive Surgical’s income tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2013 was 23%, compared with 31% for the fourth quarter of 2012.
Fourth quarter of 2013 net income was $166 million, or $4.28 per diluted share, compared with $175 million, or $4.25 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2012.
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $2,265 million, an increase of 4% compared with $2,179 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Net income was $671 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, or $16.73 per diluted share, compared with net income of $657 million, or $15.98 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2012. Net income for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, included one-time tax benefits of $34 million and $47 million, respectively, associated with various items, including the expiration of the statutes of limitations in multiple jurisdictions. Excluding these one-time benefits, net income and earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, would have been $637 million, or $15.88 per share and $610 million, or $14.84 per share, respectively.
Intuitive Surgical ended the fourth quarter of 2013 with $2.8 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investments, reflecting an increase of $222 million during the quarter.

Commenting on the announcement, Dr. Gary Guthart, President and CEO of Intuitive Surgical, said, “While 2013 has been a challenging year, our teams are well positioned heading into 2014 and deeply committed to our mission of improving surgery for those who need it. For 2014, we are focused on expanding use of da Vinci in general surgery, particularly colorectal surgery and single-incision surgery, supporting worldwide gynecology and urology growth, broadening our stapling and Single-Site launches, and continuing to strengthen our capabilities in international markets, particularly Europe and Japan.”
