INTUITIVE SURGICAL ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS
SUNNYVALE, CALIF. April 22, 2014 - Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISRG), the industry leader in surgical robotics,  reported revenue consistent with its April 8, 2014, press release of $465 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of approximately 24%, compared with $611 million for the first quarter of 2013.
Revenue reflects a reduction of first quarter of 2014 system revenue by approximately $24 million as well as instrument and accessory revenue by $2 million associated with a customer trade-out program for the newly launched da Vinci® Xi™ Surgical System. Excluding the $26 million deferral relating to the trade-out program, revenue would have been $491 million, a decrease of approximately 20% compared with first quarter of 2013.
First quarter 2014 instrument and accessory revenue decreased by approximately 2% to $255 million compared with $261 million for the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in revenue was driven by lower instrument and accessory stocking orders associated with lower first quarter 2014 system unit sales and the revenue deferral of $2 million relating to the da Vinci Xi customer trade-out program, partially offset by approximately 7% higher da Vinci procedure volume. Higher procedure volume was driven by growth in U.S. general surgery procedures and international urologic procedures, partially offset by lower U.S. gynecologic procedures.

Systems revenue decreased to $106 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared with $256 million for the first quarter of 2013. The decrease was driven by lower U.S. systems sales and the revenue deferral of $24 million relating to the da Vinci Xi customer trade-out program. Intuitive Surgical shipped 87 da Vinci Surgical Systems during the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared with 164 in the same period last year. The decrease in system unit shipments primarily reflected lower first quarter of 2014 system sales into the U.S. market. U.S. system shipments were down in the first quarter of 2014 as a result of lower procedure growth, changing hospital capital-spending priorities associated with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, and the impact that anticipation of a new system may have had on customer capital-spending decisions.

First quarter of 2014 service revenue increased approximately 10% to $104 million, compared with $94 million for the first quarter of 2013, reflecting growth in the installed base of da Vinci Surgical Systems.

First quarter of 2014 operating income decreased to $57 million, compared with $251 million in the first quarter of 2013. Operating results for the first quarter of 2014 included a pre-tax charge of $67 million related to a probable loss associated with product liability claims previously announced in the Company's April 8, 2014 press release.

Intuitive Surgical’s income tax rate for the first quarter of 2014 was 26.8%, compared with 26.1% for the first quarter of 2013.

First quarter 2014 net income, including the $67 million litigation accrual and reflecting the $26 million revenue deferral associated with the da Vinci Xi customer trade-out program, was $44 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared with $189 million, or $4.56 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2013.

Intuitive Surgical ended the first quarter of 2014 with $3 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investments, reflecting an increase of $210 million during the quarter.
