Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO)

Market (Fair) Value of Broadcom

The market value exhibited a notable upward trajectory over the analyzed periods. Starting from approximately $223 billion, it increased to around $306 billion by the second period, followed by a decline to about $266 billion in the third period. Subsequently, the value more than doubled to approximately $552 billion and continued its strong growth to reach roughly $1.1 trillion and $1.63 trillion in the final two periods, respectively. This pattern indicates strong market confidence and significant value appreciation over time, notwithstanding a short-term dip in the third period.

Invested Capital

The invested capital remained relatively stable during the first four periods, fluctuating slightly around the $62-66 billion range. However, there was a significant step increase in the fifth period, reaching $141 billion, followed by a moderate increase to $150 billion in the sixth period. The earlier stability suggests consistent capital investment, while the later considerable increase points to substantial new capital deployment or acquisition activity beginning in the fifth period.

Market Value Added (MVA)

The market value added demonstrated a trend similar to that of the market value but highlighted the company's ability to generate value beyond its invested capital. Initially, MVA rose from about $157 billion to $241 billion, dropped slightly to $204 billion, then surged to nearly $489 billion. In the last two periods, MVA doubled and then grew by over 50% to reach approximately $1.48 trillion, indicating significant value creation and effective capital utilization, particularly notable after the increase in invested capital.

Overall Analysis

In summary, the data reflects a strong growth trajectory in market capitalization and value creation over the periods analyzed. The market value's sharp rise towards the latter periods, coupled with increased invested capital, suggests strategic investments or business expansions have driven higher valuations and added considerable market value. The brief market value dip in the mid-period was temporary and did not impede the subsequent accelerated growth. The marked increase in invested capital starting in the fifth period likely played a pivotal role in the substantial growth of market value added, indicating a successful deployment of resources and positive investor sentiment.

Market Value Added (MVA)

The market value added shows a significant upward trend over the analyzed periods. Starting from approximately $156.7 billion, it increased to nearly $1.48 trillion by the final period. Notably, there was a decline from the second to third periods, followed by a substantial surge in the subsequent years, indicating enhanced market perception and value creation for shareholders over time.

Invested Capital

Invested capital remained relatively stable in the initial years, fluctuating slightly around $62.1 billion to $64.7 billion. However, a marked increase is observed starting from the fourth period, nearly doubling by the fifth and reaching approximately $150 billion by the last period. This suggests increased capital deployment, potentially for expansion or acquisitions.

MVA Spread Ratio

The MVA spread ratio, representing the value generated relative to invested capital, reflects strong and improving performance. It started above 200%, rose to over 370% in the second period, experienced a minor drop in the third period, but then surged dramatically to nearly 800% before slightly declining and ultimately reaching close to 1000%. This pattern indicates enhanced efficiency in value creation relative to invested capital, emphasizing strong operational and financial momentum.

The financial data reflects significant growth trends in several key performance metrics over the observed periods.

Market Value Added (MVA)

The Market Value Added shows a strong upward trajectory, increasing from $156,710 million in 2020 to $1,479,938 million by 2025. Notably, there was a dip in 2022 compared to 2021, where MVA decreased from $241,459 million to $203,668 million, before rebounding sharply in subsequent years. The increase from 2023 onwards indicates substantial growth in market valuation.

Net Revenue

Net revenue has demonstrated consistent growth over the periods, rising steadily from $23,888 million in 2020 to $63,887 million in 2025. The increases year-over-year show a healthy expansion in sales or service income, with the most marked growth occurring from 2023 onwards, particularly between 2023 and 2024 where the revenue surged from $35,819 million to $51,574 million.

MVA Margin

The MVA margin, which measures the market value added as a percentage of net revenue, presents a volatile but upward trend overall. Starting at 656.02% in 2020, it increased to 879.63% in 2021, experienced a drop in 2022 to 613.4%, and then rose steeply thereafter, reaching 2,316.49% by 2025. This suggests a growing market valuation relative to revenue, particularly post-2022.

In summary, the data reflects a company with increasing net revenues accompanied by an expanding market value added, albeit with some volatility in certain years. The sharp rise in MVA margin after 2022 implies enhanced market confidence or improved valuation factors relative to revenue growth. The overall patterns indicate strong market performance and increasing shareholder value over the analyzed time frame.
