Share price vs index

Valuation

Market cap divided by trailing 12 months net income (P/E) and revenue (P/S), using the four quarters reported by each day. Turn a series off in the key and the chart rescales to the other.

Revenue mix

Revenue by segment

Revenue reported by each segment. The figure at the top of each column is total revenue. Where a company reports eliminations between segments, the columns show segment revenue before them; hover a column for the eliminations and the reported total. Switch to % to see each segment's share.

Revenue by product

Revenue reported for each product. The figure at the top of each column is the total of the products shown. Switch to % to see each product's share.

Segment growth

Each segment's revenue in the chosen period against the same period a year earlier (YoY), so seasonal swings cancel out, or against the quarter before (QoQ). A year is always compared with the year before. Hover or tap a line to bring it forward.

Product growth

Each product's revenue in the chosen period against the same period a year earlier (YoY), so seasonal swings cancel out, or against the quarter before (QoQ). A year is always compared with the year before. Hover or tap a line to bring it forward.

Revenue by geography

Reported countries and regions in the chosen year or quarter. Known regions use standard geographic footprints. Hover shows the reported region total, never an allocation to individual countries. Ambiguous remainders are not mapped.

Geography growth

Each country's or region's revenue in the chosen period against the same period a year earlier (YoY), so seasonal swings cancel out, or against the quarter before (QoQ). A year is always compared with the year before. Hover or tap a line to bring it forward.

Top geographies

Reported countries and regions in the chosen year or quarter, largest first, in the map's colours. The share of the disclosed geography shows only where the reported parts add up.

Income statement

Revenue, gross profit and net income

Revenue, gross profit and net income on one scale, so their sizes can be compared period by period.

Income statement

How revenue becomes net income in the chosen year or quarter. Solid bars are totals; hatched bars are the costs taken off between them.
TotalSubtracted

Operating leverage

Revenue growth against operating expense growth, each against the same quarter a year earlier. While revenue grows faster than opex, each extra dollar of sales keeps more profit.

Cash flow

Operating and free cash flow

Free cash flow is what is left of operating cash flow after capital expenditure. The gap between each pair of bars is that year's capex.

Cash flow statement

The reported movements behind the change in cash in the chosen year or quarter. Solid bars are totals; hatched bars are what was added or taken off between them.
TotalAddedSubtracted

Capital allocation

Operating cash flow above zero; what it was spent on below: capital expenditure, dividends and buybacks.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation reported in the cash flow statement each period. The line is that amount as a percentage of the same period's revenue.
Stock-based compensation% of revenue

Balance sheet

Assets, liabilities and equity

The balance sheet at the end of the chosen year or quarter. What the company owns on the left, against what it owes and what belongs to shareholders on the right. Both columns add up to total assets.

Net cash

Cash and short-term investments minus total debt at each quarter end. Below zero, the company owes more than it holds.

War chest

Cash and short-term investments held at each quarter end. The figure at the top of each column is the total.
