Long-term Activity Ratios (Summary)
Eli Lilly & Co., long-term (investment) activity ratios (quarterly data)
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2025-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31).
The analysis of long-term activity ratios reveals a period of transition characterized by an initial decline in asset efficiency followed by a phase of relative stabilization, alongside a more pronounced downward trend in equity utilization toward the end of the observed period.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover
- A gradual decline is observed from a peak of 3.22 in March 2022 to a low of 2.53 in September 2024. Following this contraction, the ratio stabilized, fluctuating within a narrow range between 2.59 and 2.72 through September 2026. This pattern suggests an increase in fixed asset investment that initially outpaced revenue growth, eventually reaching a state of equilibrium.
- Total Asset Turnover
- The total asset turnover ratio remained relatively stable over the analyzed timeframe, oscillating between a high of 0.62 and a low of 0.52. While a slight dip occurred during the first half of 2023, the ratio recovered and maintained a consistent level around 0.58 by the end of the period, indicating a steady relationship between the total asset base and generated revenue.
- Equity Turnover
- Equity turnover exhibited significant volatility with a notable long-term downward trajectory. After reaching peaks of 3.40 in June 2022 and 3.17 in December 2023 and 2024, the ratio declined steadily to 2.15 by September 2026. This trend indicates that the growth in shareholder equity has significantly outpaced the growth in sales, resulting in lower efficiency of equity in generating revenue.
In summary, the convergence of declining fixed asset and equity turnover ratios suggests a strategic expansion of the balance sheet. The stability of the total asset turnover implies that the overall efficiency of the company's resource allocation has remained constant, despite shifts in the underlying composition of assets and equity.

An analysis of the investment activity ratios reveals a period of aggressive capital expansion paired with substantial revenue acceleration. While revenue grew significantly over the observed period, the simultaneous increase in net fixed assets led to an initial decline in asset efficiency, which eventually transitioned into a phase of stability.
- Revenue Trajectory
- A strong upward trend in revenue is observed, starting at 7,810 million USD in March 2022 and reaching 24,397 million USD by September 2026. The growth was particularly pronounced starting in 2024, where quarterly revenues consistently exceeded 11,000 million USD, indicating a significant scaling of commercial operations.
- Fixed Asset Investment
- The net value of property and equipment expanded steadily from 9,103 million USD in March 2022 to 32,188 million USD in September 2026. This represents a more than three-fold increase in the fixed asset base, reflecting heavy long-term investment in infrastructure and production capacity.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover Dynamics
- The net fixed asset turnover ratio experienced an initial contraction, falling from a peak of 3.22 in March 2022 to 2.63 by March 2023. This decline suggests that capital expenditures initially outpaced revenue growth during the early expansion phase. However, from March 2023 through September 2026, the ratio stabilized, fluctuating within a narrow range between 2.53 and 2.72. This stabilization indicates that the company has reached a stage where the newly acquired assets are generating revenue at a consistent and proportional rate.
The convergence of rapid asset growth and accelerating revenue suggests a strategic cycle of capacity building followed by utilization. The maintenance of the turnover ratio around the 2.6 to 2.7 level during the latter half of the period demonstrates that the significant increase in fixed assets is being effectively leveraged to support the increased scale of operations.

The financial trajectory between March 2022 and September 2026 is characterized by aggressive expansion in both revenue generation and the asset base. While revenue exhibits a strong long-term upward trend, the efficiency of asset utilization, as measured by total asset turnover, underwent a period of contraction and volatility before stabilizing toward the end of the observed period.
- Revenue Growth Patterns
- Quarterly revenue demonstrates a significant upward trajectory, increasing from 7,810 million US dollars in March 2022 to 24,397 million US dollars by September 2026. A notable acceleration in growth occurs starting in June 2024, with revenue consistently exceeding 11 billion US dollars per quarter and reaching its peak in the final quarter of the analysis.
- Asset Base Expansion
- Total assets grew substantially over the period, rising from 46,919 million US dollars in March 2022 to 148,072 million US dollars by September 2026. The expansion was most pronounced between December 2024 and June 2026, indicating a period of intense capital investment or asset acquisition aimed at scaling operational capacity.
- Total Asset Turnover Analysis
- The total asset turnover ratio reflects a cyclical trend in operational efficiency. After remaining stable at 0.62 in early 2022, the ratio declined to a low of 0.52 in March 2023. This downward trend suggests that asset growth initially outpaced revenue generation. The ratio remained largely suppressed between 0.52 and 0.57 from March 2023 through September 2025. A recovery phase is evident starting in December 2025, with the ratio returning to 0.62 by March 2026, before normalizing to 0.58 by September 2026. This indicates a lagged but eventual alignment where revenue growth began to catch up with the expanded asset base.

The financial trajectory of Eli Lilly & Co. between March 2022 and September 2026 is characterized by substantial growth in both revenue and shareholders' equity, although these two metrics have expanded at different rates, impacting the equity turnover ratio.
- Revenue Growth Trends
- Revenue exhibits a strong and consistent upward trajectory over the analyzed period. Starting at 7,810 million USD in March 2022, revenue increased to 24,397 million USD by September 2026. This represents a significant expansion of the top line, with particularly accelerated growth observed from June 2024 onwards, where quarterly figures consistently exceeded 11,000 million USD and eventually peaked in the final quarter of the series.
- Shareholders' Equity Accumulation
- Total shareholders' equity demonstrates a marked increase, growing from 9,331 million USD in March 2022 to 40,271 million USD by September 2026. While the growth was gradual through 2023, a period of rapid acceleration began in March 2025, with equity nearly tripling between March 2024 (12,812 million USD) and September 2026. This suggests a significant accumulation of capital or retained earnings within the company.
- Equity Turnover Analysis
- The equity turnover ratio shows a general downward trend over the long term, despite periodic fluctuations. The ratio peaked early in the period at 3.40 in June 2022 and saw a temporary recovery to 3.17 in December 2023 and December 2024. However, a steady decline is observed from March 2025 (3.11) through September 2026, where the ratio reached a period low of 2.15.
- Correlation and Efficiency Insights
- The decline in equity turnover is a direct result of shareholders' equity growing at a faster pace than revenue. While revenue increased approximately 3.1 times over the period, equity increased approximately 4.3 times. This divergence indicates that the company is becoming less efficient at generating sales relative to its equity base, a pattern often associated with significant capital investments or balance sheet strengthening that precedes the full realization of corresponding revenue gains.
