    Preliminary Results

    The Company expects fourth quarter 2021 revenue of approximately $1.55 billion, an increase of 17% compared with $1.33 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020. The compound annual growth rate between the fourth quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2021 was approximately 10%.

    Preliminary fourth quarter 2021 instruments and accessories revenue increased by 13% to approximately $843 million, compared with $747 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily driven by growth in da Vinci procedure volume, partially offset by stocking orders in the prior year associated with the Company’s launch of Extended Use Instruments.

Preliminary full year 2021 instruments and accessories revenue increased by 26% to approximately $3.10 billion, compared with $2.46 billion for 2020, primarily driven by growth in da Vinci procedure volume. The compound annual growth rate between the full year of 2019 and the full year of 2021 was approximately 13%.

    Fourth quarter 2021 da Vinci procedures increased approximately 19% compared with the fourth quarter of 2020.

The compound annual growth rate between the full year of 2019 and the full year of 2021 was approximately 12%. The Company shipped 385 da Vinci Surgical Systems in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared with 326 systems in the fourth quarter of 2020. The fourth quarter 2021 system shipments included 143 shipped under operating lease and usage-based arrangements, compared with 120 systems in the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company shipped 1,347 da Vinci Surgical Systems in 2021, compared with 936 systems in 2020. The 2021 system shipments included 517 systems shipped under operating lease and usage-based arrangements, compared with 317 systems in 2020.

    Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

    During 2020, da Vinci procedure volumes and system placements were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, as healthcare systems around the world diverted resources to respond to COVID-19. During 2021, COVID-19 resurgences continued to impact da Vinci procedure volumes. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business has, and continues to, differ by geography and region. COVID-19 has had, and will likely 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 choose our products in the fourth quarter during a difficult healthcare environment. As we enter 2022, we remain focused on supporting our customers and advancing our innovative ecosystem of platforms, learning, and services aimed at improving minimally invasive care.”
