The financial data reveals significant fluctuations in profitability metrics over the five-year period. Both net income attributable to DuPont and net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) demonstrate notable volatility and an overall downward trend from 2015 to 2019.
- Net Income Attributable to DuPont
-
The net income experienced a steep decline from a peak of 7,685 million US dollars in 2015 to 1,460 million US dollars in 2017. Although there was a partial recovery in 2018 where net income increased to 3,844 million US dollars, the figure sharply contracted again to only 498 million US dollars in 2019. This pattern highlights increasing challenges in maintaining consistent profitability.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
-
The NOPAT metric follows a similar variable trend but shows even greater volatility throughout the period. It begins at 8,206 million US dollars in 2015 and falls sharply to 2,498 million US dollars by 2017. Despite a rebound in 2018 to 4,932 million US dollars, the NOPAT turns negative in 2019, indicating an operational loss of 572 million US dollars. This negative result in 2019 suggests operational difficulties or increased costs impacting the company's core profitability that year.
Overall, the data suggests a period of significant financial distress and operational challenges, especially towards the end of the timeline. Both net income and NOPAT show a loss of momentum post-2015 with a critical downturn in 2019. The negative NOPAT position in 2019 might call for a closer examination of the company’s operational efficiency and expense management during this period.
Cash Operating Taxes
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2019-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2018-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2017-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2016-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2015-12-31).
- Provision for (benefit from) income taxes on continuing operations
- The provision for income taxes on continuing operations demonstrates significant volatility over the analyzed period. In 2015, the provision was high at 2147 million US dollars, but it drastically decreased to 9 million US dollars in 2016, indicating a sharp reduction in tax expenses or changes in tax benefits. The following year, 2017, reported a negative value of -476 million US dollars, suggesting a tax benefit or credit rather than an expense. However, the provision increased again in 2018 to 1489 million US dollars before declining sharply to 140 million US dollars in 2019. Overall, the data reveals a highly fluctuating trend without a clear upward or downward consistency.
- Cash operating taxes
- Cash operating taxes exhibit a generally increasing trend from 2015 to 2018, starting at 2158 million US dollars in 2015 and peaking at 2222 million US dollars in 2018. This upward movement suggests rising actual cash outflows related to tax payments during the initial years. However, in 2019, a marked decrease to 751 million US dollars occurs, indicating a substantial drop in cash taxes paid. This shift may be reflective of tax strategy changes, timing differences, or altered profitability affecting cash tax obligations.
Invested Capital
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2019-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2018-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2017-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2016-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2015-12-31).

2 Elimination of deferred taxes from assets and liabilities. See details »
3 Addition of allowance for doubtful accounts receivable.
4 Addition of LIFO reserve. See details »
5 Addition of deferred revenue.
6 Addition of restructuring reserve.
7 Addition of equity equivalents to total DuPont stockholders’ equity.
8 Removal of accumulated other comprehensive income.
9 Subtraction of construction in progress.
10 Subtraction of marketable securities.
The financial data indicates significant fluctuations in the company's capital structure and invested capital over the five-year period.
- Total reported debt & leases
- This metric exhibits a rising trend from 2015 to 2018, increasing from 19,250 million US dollars to a peak of 43,241 million US dollars in 2018. However, this upward trajectory reverses sharply in 2019, with total debt decreasing to 18,001 million US dollars, indicating a substantial reduction in leverage or paydown of debt obligations during that year.
- Total DuPont stockholders’ equity
- Stockholders’ equity remains relatively stable between 2015 and 2016 but undergoes a dramatic increase in 2017, reaching 100,330 million US dollars, which is nearly quadruple the 2016 figure. This elevated level slightly declines in 2018 to 94,571 million but experiences a steep decrease in 2019 down to 40,987 million US dollars. The pronounced spikes and drops suggest significant equity transactions, asset revaluations, or changes in retained earnings during these years.
- Invested capital
- Invested capital follows a similar pattern to equity, growing moderately from 46,288 million US dollars in 2015 to 50,610 million in 2016, then experiencing a sharp increase to 149,192 million in 2017 and remaining close in 2018 at 153,164 million. In 2019, invested capital declines significantly to 62,770 million. This trajectory aligns with the movements seen in both equity and reported debt, indicating substantial changes in the company’s total capital invested in operating assets.
Overall, the data reflects periods of major capital structure changes, including a notable increase in both equity and debt leading up to 2017 and 2018, followed by a significant reduction in debt and equity in 2019. These shifts may be attributable to corporate restructuring, acquisitions, divestitures, or refinancing activities during these years. The volatility in invested capital further corroborates these possibilities, suggesting the company underwent important strategic financial decisions impacting its balance sheet composition and capital deployment.
