Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31).
The financial data for the period ending December 31 from 2020 to 2024 reveals notable fluctuations in both current assets and adjusted current assets.
- Current Assets
-
Current assets demonstrated variability throughout the period. The value decreased from 13,802 million US dollars in 2020 to 11,648 million US dollars in 2021, indicating a decline in liquid or near-liquid assets. Subsequently, there was a significant increase in 2022, with current assets rising sharply to 15,883 million US dollars. This peak was followed by a decline to 13,937 million US dollars in 2023 and further contraction to 9,497 million US dollars by the end of 2024. The trend suggests fluctuations in the company's short-term asset base, with a general downward movement observed in the latter years of the dataset.
- Adjusted Current Assets
-
The adjusted current assets, which may provide a refined measure of liquid assets after certain adjustments, exhibit a pattern closely aligned with that of current assets. Starting at 13,934 million US dollars in 2020, there was a decline to 11,772 million US dollars in 2021. This was followed by a significant increase to 16,009 million US dollars in 2022, mirroring the peak seen in current assets. The values then decline to 14,057 million US dollars in 2023 and further down to 9,610 million US dollars in 2024. The adjusted figures consistently remain slightly higher than the unadjusted current assets, suggesting that the adjustments added modest value to the apparent liquidity of the company.
Overall, the company’s short-term asset position experienced volatility over the five-year span, with a notable peak in 2022 followed by a declining trend through 2023 and 2024. This pattern may reflect operational or strategic factors influencing asset management, potentially impacting liquidity and working capital management in recent years.
Adjustments to Total Assets
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31).

The annual financial data reveals the following trends over the five-year period:
- Total assets
- The total assets showed a steady increase from 76,161 million US dollars at the end of 2020 to a peak of 84,488 million US dollars by the end of 2023. However, in the final year, there was a noticeable decline to 77,542 million US dollars, indicating a reduction in asset base after several years of growth.
- Adjusted total assets
- The adjusted total assets closely follow the trend of total assets, starting from 76,293 million US dollars in 2020 and increasing gradually to 84,608 million US dollars in 2023. Similar to total assets, the adjusted figure also decreases in 2024 to 77,655 million US dollars, mirroring the contraction observed in the total assets.
Overall, the data shows a general upward trend in asset accumulation from 2020 through 2023, suggesting an expansion in the company's asset base during this period. The decline in both total and adjusted total assets in 2024 may warrant further investigation to understand the underlying causes, which could relate to asset disposals, depreciation, or strategic shifts affecting asset composition.

The financial data over the five-year period exhibits notable fluctuations in both current liabilities and adjusted current liabilities.
- Current Liabilities
- The values show an overall increasing trend from 2020 through 2022, rising from 7,402 million USD in 2020 to a peak of 8,389 million USD in 2022. However, this upward trend reverses slightly in 2023 with a reduction to 8,274 million USD, followed by a more pronounced decrease in 2024 down to 6,798 million USD. This indicates an improvement in the company's short-term obligations or liability management in the most recent year.
- Adjusted Current Liabilities
- Adjusted current liabilities follow a somewhat similar pattern, increasing steadily from 6,190 million USD in 2020 to 6,809 million USD in 2023. In 2024, there is a substantial decline to 5,499 million USD. The adjusted figures consistently remain below the reported current liabilities, suggesting that certain adjustments reduce the liability base, possibly reflecting more conservative or refined accounting treatments.
- Overall Trends and Insights
- The general trend until 2023 indicates growing current liabilities, which could imply increased operational scale or additional short-term financing. Yet, the marked reduction in 2024 suggests enhanced liquidity management or repayment of short-term obligations. The decline in both reported and adjusted liabilities in 2024 may positively affect the company's working capital position and financial flexibility.

- Adjusted total liabilities
- The adjusted total liabilities, which likely account for certain corrections or reclassifications, also show a consistent decline from US$31,513 million in 2020 to US$24,670 million in 2024. This represents a decrease of about 21.7%, mirroring the pattern observed in total liabilities with a gradual but clear improvement in the company’s adjusted debt position.

The financial data exhibits trends in Danaher Corp.'s stockholders' equity over a five-year period from 2020 to 2024. Both the total stockholders' equity and the adjusted total stockholders' equity show a general increase from 2020 through 2023, followed by a decrease in 2024.
- Total Danaher stockholders’ equity
-
From 2020 to 2023, total stockholders' equity increased steadily from US$39,766 million to US$53,486 million, indicating positive growth in shareholders' investment over the period. However, in 2024, this figure declined to US$49,543 million, representing a noticeable reduction compared to the previous year.
- Adjusted total stockholders’ equity
-
Similarly, the adjusted total stockholders’ equity rose from US$44,780 million in 2020 to a peak of US$57,516 million in 2023. This adjusted figure also experienced a decline in 2024 to US$52,985 million, mirroring the trend seen in the total stockholders' equity. The adjusted equity consistently remains higher than the total stockholders’ equity, reflecting adjustments that may include items such as accumulated other comprehensive income or revaluation reserves.
Overall, the stockholders' equity experienced growth over the initial four-year period, suggesting enhanced company value and financial strength. The decline in 2024 may warrant further investigation to understand the underlying causes, which could be related to market conditions, operational results, or capital structure changes. The close correlation in movement between the total and adjusted equity measures indicates consistent trends across different equity calculation methodologies.

The financial data over the five-year period reveals several noteworthy trends in the company's capital structure and leverage positions.
- Total reported debt
- There is a clear downward trend in total reported debt, decreasing from $21,204 million at the end of 2020 to $16,005 million by the end of 2024. This represents a reduction of approximately 24.5%, indicating a consistent deleveraging effort across the period.
- Total Danaher stockholders’ equity
- Shareholders' equity experienced growth from $39,766 million in 2020, peaking at $53,486 million at the end of 2023, before declining slightly to $49,543 million in 2024. Overall, this reflects a positive equity growth trend of approximately 24.5% over five years, with a modest reversal in the final year.
- Total reported capital
- Total reported capital, the sum of debt and equity, increased steadily from $60,970 million in 2020 to reach a high of $71,888 million in 2023, followed by a decrease to $65,548 million in 2024. This trend suggests expansion in overall capital employed until 2023 and a partial retrenchment thereafter.
- Adjusted total debt
- Adjusted total debt follows a similar pattern to reported debt, decreasing from $22,178 million in 2020 to $17,146 million in 2024. This decline corroborates the reduction in leverage observed on a reported basis and reinforces the interpretation of improved financial stability.
- Adjusted total stockholders’ equity
- Adjusted equity shows growth from $44,780 million in 2020 to $57,516 million in 2023, after which it declines to $52,985 million in 2024. The adjusted figures mirror the trends seen in reported equity, with gains over the majority of the period, followed by a slight downturn.
- Adjusted total capital
- This aggregate measure also rises from $66,958 million in 2020 to a peak of $77,052 million in 2023, then falls to $70,131 million in 2024. The pattern mirrors that of reported total capital, highlighting steady expansion and a subsequent retrenchment in capital base when adjustments are accounted for.
Overall, the data indicate a strategic reduction in debt levels accompanied by growth in equity until 2023, suggesting strengthening financial health and possible reinvestment or capital increase during the period. The slight reversal in equity and capital in 2024 warrants attention as it may reflect changes in market conditions, strategic decisions, or other external factors affecting the capital structure.

- Trend Analysis
- The initial growth period from 2020 through 2022 indicates strong sales expansion, possibly driven by favorable market conditions or successful business strategies. The abrupt reversal starting in 2023 suggests underlying challenges affecting the company's sales performance, which may include market contraction, increased competition, or operational issues.
- Comparison of Sales vs. Adjusted Sales
- The minimal difference between sales and adjusted sales suggests neither significant accounting adjustments nor major atypical items impacting the revenue recognition during this timeframe. Both metrics present consistent patterns in growth and decline, reinforcing the reliability of reported figures.

1 Deferred income tax expense (benefit). See details »
The financial data reveal distinct trends in both net earnings and adjusted net earnings over the five-year period.
- Net earnings
- Net earnings experienced a significant increase from 2020 to 2022, rising from 3,646 million US dollars to a peak of 7,209 million US dollars. This was followed by a decline in the subsequent years, decreasing to 4,764 million in 2023 and further to 3,899 million in 2024. Overall, despite the early growth, the net earnings showed a downward trend in the latter part of the period.
- Adjusted net earnings
- Adjusted net earnings exhibited a contrasting pattern relative to net earnings. Starting at 7,503 million US dollars in 2020, the adjusted figure showed a consistent and steady decline throughout the years, falling to 1,756 million in 2024. This represents a substantial reduction of more than 75% over the five-year span, indicating either increased adjustments or changes in the nature of earnings considered in this measure.
The divergent movements between net earnings and adjusted net earnings suggest varying impacts of adjustments or one-time items over the period. While net earnings peaked mid-period before declining, adjusted net earnings decreased consistently year over year, highlighting potential challenges in sustaining earnings quality or recurring profitability.
