ISRG: Management Reaffirms Our Bullish View on Procedure Volume Growth
August 15, 2012 – We reiterate our Buy rating and $640 price target on ISRG post our special conference call with the
management team (CEO, CFO, VP of Strategy). Management reiterated the importance of procedure volume growth for ISRG's
long-term potential and indicated that strong systems sales may imply an increasing demand for procedures. With systems
placement having grown sequentially in recent quarters, we believe there could be a major wave of volume growth in the near-
term. We consider our EV/E of 41x our 2012 EPS estimate of $15.06 to be reasonable.
