Intuitive Announces Preliminary Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Jan. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intuitive (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ISRG), a global technology leader in minimally invasive care and the pioneer of robotic-assisted surgery, today announced certain unaudited preliminary fourth quarter and full year 2022 financial results ahead of its presentation at the 41st Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on January 11, 2023.

Financial and Operational Highlights

  • Fourth quarter 2022 worldwide da Vinci procedures grew approximately 18% compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. The fourth quarter of 2022 reflected a resurgence in COVID-19 in China, which negatively impacted procedure volumes in the region. The fourth quarter of 2021 reflected COVID-19 disruptions later in the quarter in the U.S. and Europe, which also impacted the Company’s procedures. The compound annual growth rate between the fourth quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2022 was approximately 14%.
  • Full year 2022 worldwide da Vinci procedures grew approximately 18% compared with 2021. The compound annual growth rate between the full year of 2019 and the full year of 2022 was approximately 15%. The Company expects worldwide da Vinci procedures to increase approximately 12% to 16% in 2023 as compared to 2022.
  • The Company placed 369 da Vinci Surgical Systems in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of 4% compared with 385 in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company placed 1,264 da Vinci Surgical Systems in 2022, a decrease of 6% compared with 1,347 systems in 2021.
  • Preliminary fourth quarter 2022 revenue of approximately $1.66 billion increased 7% compared with $1.55 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. Preliminary 2022 revenue of approximately $6.22 billion increased 9% compared with $5.71 billion in 2021.

Preliminary Results

The Company expects fourth quarter 2022 revenue of approximately $1.66 billion, an increase of 7% compared with $1.55 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company expects 2022 revenue of approximately $6.22 billion, an increase of 9% compared with $5.71 billion in 2021. The unaudited results in this press release are preliminary and subject to the completion of the Company’s final closing procedures and annual independent audit and, therefore, are subject to adjustment.

Preliminary fourth quarter 2022 instruments and accessories revenue increased by 12% to approximately $941 million, compared with $843 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily driven by growth in da Vinci procedure volume, partially offset by customer buying patterns and foreign currency impacts. Preliminary full year 2022 instruments and accessories revenue increased by 13% to approximately $3.52 billion, compared with $3.10 billion for 2021, primarily driven by growth in da Vinci procedure volume, partially offset by foreign currency impacts and customer buying patterns in 2022 and the benefit of stocking orders in 2021 associated with the launch of the Company’s Extended Use Program.

Fourth quarter 2022 da Vinci procedures increased approximately 18% compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. In 2022, approximately 1,875,000 surgical procedures were performed with da Vinci Surgical Systems, an increase of approximately 18% compared with approximately 1,594,000 surgical procedures performed with da Vinci Surgical Systems in 2021. The growth in the Company’s overall procedure volume in 2022 was primarily driven by growth in U.S. general surgery procedures and outside of the U.S. cancer procedures. The Company expects worldwide da Vinci procedures to increase approximately 12% to 16% in 2023.

Preliminary fourth quarter 2022 systems revenue decreased by 4% to approximately $451 million, compared with $470 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Preliminary full year 2022 systems revenue decreased by 1% to approximately $1.68 billion, compared with $1.69 billion in 2021. The Company placed 369 da Vinci Surgical Systems in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with 385 systems in the fourth quarter of 2021. The fourth quarter 2022 system placements included 154 systems placed under operating lease and usage-based arrangements, compared with 143 systems in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company placed 1,264 da Vinci Surgical Systems in 2022, compared with 1,347 systems in 2021. The 2022 system placements included 492 systems placed under operating lease and usage-based arrangements, compared with 517 systems in 2021.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

During 2022, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business has differed by geography and region. During the first half of 2022, the Company saw COVID-19 resurgences impact da Vinci procedure volumes in the U.S. and Europe followed by recoveries. During the second half of 2022, the Company saw COVID-19 resurgences impact da Vinci procedure volumes in China. COVID-19 has had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on the Company’s procedure volumes.

Commenting on the announcement, Intuitive CEO Gary Guthart said, “Our customers continued to grow their adoption of our training, products, and services in the fourth quarter and for the full year. We remain focused on supporting our customers’ drive to improve the quadruple aim in acute interventions.”
