The investigation focuses on whether Intuitive Surgical and certain of its executives and/or directors violated federal securities laws.

On July 18, 2013, Intuitive Surgical cut its revenue guidance for 2013 in response to increasing concerns about its da Vinci surgical robot systems. The Company now sees sales growth in a range of 0% to 7%, down from its previous guidance range of 16% to 19%.  After the market closed that day, in a conference call to investors, Gary S. Guthart, President and Chief Executive Officer of Intuitive Surgical, also announced that the Federal Drug Administration sent a warning letter regarding its previous onsite audit, asking for additional steps to resolve two of the four observations it made.

Following this news, the Company's stock dropped $28.80 or 6.83%.
