Q3 Financial Summary

Gross profit, income from operations, net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc., and net income per diluted share attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. are reported on a GAAP and non-GAAP* basis. The non-GAAP* measures are described below and are reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measures at the end of this release.

Third quarter 2023 revenue was $1.74 billion, an increase of 12% compared with $1.56 billion in the third quarter of 2022. The higher third quarter revenue was driven by growth in da Vinci procedure volume and an increase in the installed base of systems.

Third quarter 2023 instruments and accessories revenue increased by 23% to $1.07 billion, compared with $0.87 billion in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in instruments and accessories revenue was primarily driven by approximately 19% growth in da Vinci procedure volume and higher pricing.

Third quarter 2023 systems revenue was $379 million, compared with $426 million in the third quarter of 2022. The Company placed 312 da Vinci surgical systems in the third quarter of 2023, compared with 305 systems in the third quarter of 2022. The third quarter 2023 da Vinci surgical system placements included 163 systems placed under operating lease arrangements, of which 93 systems were placed under usage-based operating lease arrangements, compared with 113 systems placed under operating lease arrangements, of which 54 systems were placed under usage-based operating lease arrangements in the third quarter of 2022.

Third quarter 2023 GAAP income from operations increased to $466 million, compared with $399 million in the third quarter of 2022. Third quarter 2023 GAAP income from operations included share-based compensation expense of $157 million, compared with $139 million in the third quarter of 2022. Third quarter 2023 non-GAAP* income from operations increased to $624 million, compared with $555 million in the third quarter of 2022.

Third quarter 2023 GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. was $416 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, compared with $324 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022. Third quarter 2023 GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. included excess tax benefits of $22 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with $18 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022.

Third quarter 2023 non-GAAP* net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. was $524 million, or $1.46 per diluted share, compared with $429 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022.

The Company ended the third quarter of 2023 with $7.52 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and investments, an increase of $389 million during the quarter, primarily driven by cash generated from operations, partially offset by capital expenditures.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

The third quarter of 2023 and 2022 did not reflect any significant disruptions from COVID-19. However, COVID-19 has had in the past, and could have, an adverse impact on the Company’s procedure volumes.

“We are pleased by our customers’ continued adoption of da Vinci surgery and their acceptance and use of our Ion and SP platforms,” said Gary Guthart, Intuitive CEO. “We continue to focus on supporting their needs through the pursuit of expanded indications, delivering excellence in quality and supply, and increasing our productivity.”

*About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc., non-GAAP net income per diluted share attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (“EPS”), and non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding items such as amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation (“SBC”) and long-term incentive plan expenses, and other special items. Long-term incentive plan expense relates to phantom share awards granted in China by the Company’s Intuitive-Fosun joint venture to its employees that vest over four years and can remain outstanding for seven to ten years. These awards are valued based on certain key performance metrics. Accordingly, they are subject to significant volatility based on the performance of these metrics and are not tied to performance of the Company’s business within the period. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to its historical performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors, because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, and (2) they are used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the performance of the Company’s business.

Non-GAAP gross profit. The Company defines non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit, excluding amortization of intangible assets and SBC and long-term incentive plan expenses.

Non-GAAP income from operations. The Company defines non-GAAP income from operations as income from operations, excluding amortization of intangible assets, SBC and long-term incentive plan expenses, litigation charges and recoveries, and a gain on the sale of a business.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. and EPS. The Company defines non-GAAP net income as net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc., excluding amortization of intangible assets, SBC and long-term incentive plan expenses, litigation charges and recoveries, a gain on the sale of a business, gains (losses) on strategic investments, adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interest in joint venture, net of the related tax effects, and tax adjustments, including the excess tax benefits or deficiencies associated with SBC arrangements and the net tax effects related to intra-entity transfers of non-inventory assets. The Company excludes the excess tax benefits or deficiencies associated with SBC arrangements as well as the tax effects associated with non-cash amortization of deferred tax assets related to intra-entity non-inventory transfers, because the Company does not believe these items correlate with the on-going results of its core operations. The tax effects of the non-GAAP items are determined by applying a calculated non-GAAP effective tax rate, which is commonly referred to as the with-and-without method. Without excluding these tax effects, investors would only see the gross effect that these non-GAAP adjustments had on the Company’s operating results. The Company’s calculated non-GAAP effective tax rate is generally higher than its GAAP effective tax rate. The Company defines non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. divided by non-GAAP diluted shares, which are calculated as GAAP weighted-average outstanding shares plus dilutive potential shares outstanding during the period.

There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP measures versus measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc., and non-GAAP EPS exclude items such as amortization of intangible assets, SBC and long-term incentive plan expenses, excess tax benefits or deficiencies associated with SBC arrangements, and non-cash amortization of deferred tax assets related to intra-entity transfer of non-inventory assets, which are primarily recurring items. SBC expense has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in the Company’s business. In addition, the components of the costs that the Company excludes in its calculation of non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. and non-GAAP EPS may differ from the components that its peer companies exclude when they report their results of operations. Management addresses these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. and non-GAAP EPS and evaluating non-GAAP net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. and non-GAAP EPS together with net income attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. and net income per share attributable to Intuitive Surgical, Inc. calculated in accordance with GAAP.
