On Jan. 22, ISRG shares rose marginally after the company released its fiscal 2025 Q4 earnings. Its revenue increased 19% year over year to $2.87 billion, driven by higher procedure volumes, more da Vinci system placements totaling 532 units, including strong adoption of da Vinci 5, and a larger installed base. Instruments and accessories revenue rose 17% to $1.66 billion on 17% growth in da Vinci procedures and 44% growth in Ion procedures, while systems revenue increased to $786 million due to higher placements and average selling prices.

Profitability improved as non-GAAP operating income rose to $1.07 billion and non-GAAP earnings per share stood at $2.53, supported in part by tax benefits. The company ended the quarter with $9.03 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and investments. For 2026, Intuitive expects worldwide da Vinci procedure growth of 13% to 15%, non-GAAP gross margin of 67% to 68% of revenue, including tariff impact.

For the current fiscal year, ending in December, analysts expect ISRG’s EPS to rise 13.9% year over year to $8.22. The company’s earnings surprise history is promising. It exceeded the consensus estimates in each of the last four quarters.

Among the 30 analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is a “Moderate Buy,” which is based on 18 “Strong Buy,” two “Moderate Buy,” nine “Hold,” and one “Strong Sell” rating.
