RECENT ACCOUNTING. PRONOUNCEMENTS In April 2002, SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections, was issued. SFAS No. 145 primarily rescinds SFAS No. 4 which allowed gains or losses from the extinguishment of debt to be classified as an extraordinary item. As a result, the criteria set forth by Accounting Principals Board ("APB") Opinion No. 30 will now be used to classify those gains or losses. SFAS No. 145 becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002, with early application encouraged. Management does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 145 will have a material impact on the financial statements. In June 2002, SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, was issued. SFAS No. 146 changes the timing of when companies recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities, so that the costs would generally be recognized when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, and could result in the Company recognizing the costs of future exit or disposal activities over a period of time as opposed to as a single event. In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. This interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under a guarantees issued. The interpretation also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of the Interpretation are applicable to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. There was no material impact on the financial statements under this provision. The Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") released Issue No. 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (including a Reseller) for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor, in November 2002, applicable for new arrangements entered into after December 31, 2002. Effective January 31, 2003, the Company adopted EITF Issue No. 02-16. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. In December 2002, ...

RECENT ACCOUNTING. PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and SFAS No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETs. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling of interest method. SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and certain other intangibles and instead subjects these assets to periodic impairment assessments. SFAS No. 142 is effective immediately for all goodwill and certain other intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001 and shall commence on January 1, 2002 for all goodwill and certain other intangibles existing on June 30, 2001. Sonus has adopted SFAS No. 141 and is currently assessing the potential impact that SFAS No. 142 will have on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETs, which supersedes SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF,
RECENT ACCOUNTING. PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," an amendment of SFAS No. 133, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. With the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended, effective January 1, 2001, there is no effect on our consolidated financial statements as we have not entered into any derivative contracts. INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
RECENT ACCOUNTING. PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). We adopted SFAS 133 effective January 1, 2001. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The statement also requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. The adoption of SFAS 133, as amended, has not had a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations. ITEM 0.XXXXXXXXXX'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS‌ This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations as of March 31, 2001 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000 should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Intuitive Surgical's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.

RECENT ACCOUNTING. PRONOUNCEMENT -- In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 ("SFAS 161"), "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133," which requires enhanced disclosures about a fund's derivative and hedging activities. Funds are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why a fund uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a fund's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, management does not believe the adoption of SFAS 161 will impact the financial statement amounts; however, additional footnote disclosures may be required about the use of derivative instruments and hedging items.
