What is the company's outlook and what are the key risks for the upcoming year?

The company expects to continue investing in its business, including expanding manufacturing capabilities and launching new products like the da Vinci 5 system.

International operations also present risks related to currency fluctuations and varying regulatory requirements. Management is focused on navigating these challenges through innovation and strategic execution.
