• DJ Intuitive Surgical's Raised Procedure Outlook Is Positive Sign Given Various Drags -- Market Talk, from 9:56AM ET on Friday Apr 19, 2024 by Dow Jones

  0955 ET - Intuitive Surgical's higher procedure-growth guidance is a sign that results are resilient against multiple dragging factors. Stifel analysts say in research note that the company is facing a slowdown in bariatric procedures because of weight-loss drugs, plus slower urology growth in Japan and a physician strike in Korea. All of those factors are likely to bring down overall procedures. Still, the analysts take note of the company is still lifting its full-year guidance for procedure growth to 14% to 17%, compared to prior outlook of 13% to 16% growth. Procedure growth in 1Q outpaced a rise in the company's installed robotic surgery systems and topped consensus estimates. (ben.glickman@wsj.com; @benglickman)
