Total revenue increased by 14%, with instruments and accessories revenue growing by 22% to $4.28 billion, while systems revenue remained flat at $1.68 billion. This indicates a shift in revenue composition, with recurring revenue streams becoming more dominant.

Gross profit margin decreased to 66.4% in 2023 from 67.4% in 2022, primarily due to a higher mix of new products, higher component costs, and increased inventory reserves. This suggests potential challenges in maintaining profitability amidst rising expenses.

Operating income increased by 12% to $1.77 billion, driven by increased revenue, but was offset by higher operating expenses, including increased headcount and share-based compensation. This highlights the company's need to manage expenses effectively while growing.
