The financial data reveals several notable trends over the five-year period examined.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT shows a consistent upward trend from 2015 to 2019. Starting at $2,171 million in 2015, NOPAT increased each year except for a slight decrease in 2017, where it fell from $2,456 million in 2016 to $2,393 million. After 2017, the figure rose significantly to $3,010 million in 2018 and continued increasing to $3,427 million in 2019, reflecting improved operational profitability over time.
- Cost of Capital
- The cost of capital remained relatively stable throughout the period, with minor fluctuations. It increased from 11.71% in 2015 to 11.89% in 2016 and further to 12.28% in 2017. There was a slight decline to 12.21% in 2018, followed by an increase to 12.4% in 2019. Overall, the cost of capital hovered just above 11.5%, indicating a fairly consistent cost environment for capital investment.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital exhibited a gradual upward trend. It grew from $22,413 million in 2015 to $23,509 million in 2016 and remained relatively flat in 2017 at $23,548 million. Thereafter, it increased more notably to $26,081 million in 2018 and $26,688 million in 2019, suggesting a growing asset base supporting business activities.
- Economic Profit
- Economic profit remained negative for the initial four years but showed considerable improvement over the period. The deficit decreased from -$454 million in 2015 to -$340 million in 2016. There was a decline again to -$497 million in 2017 before substantial recovery in 2018 to -$174 million. In 2019, economic profit turned positive, reaching $118 million. This improvement indicates the company’s operations started generating returns above its cost of capital by the end of the period.
In summary, the data reflects a positive trajectory in operational profitability and economic value generation despite a stable and slightly increasing cost of capital. The invested capital has steadily increased, implying ongoing financial investment in business operations. The transition from negative to positive economic profit by 2019 is a significant milestone, suggesting improved capital efficiency and shareholder value creation.

- Net income attributable to Raytheon Company
- The net income shows a generally positive trend over the five-year period. Starting at 2,074 million US dollars in 2015, there was a modest increase in 2016 to 2,211 million. However, the net income slightly declined in 2017 to 2,024 million. From 2017 onwards, the net income rose significantly, reaching 2,909 million in 2018 and further increasing to 3,343 million by the end of 2019. This pattern indicates recovery and robust growth in profitability in the latter years.
- Net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT also demonstrates an upward trajectory across the reported years. The value grew steadily from 2,171 million US dollars in 2015 to 2,456 million in 2016. A slight decline occurred in 2017, with NOPAT at 2,393 million, mirroring the dip seen in net income for that year. In 2018, NOPAT increased sharply to 3,010 million and continued its upward movement to 3,427 million in 2019. This trend underscores improving operational efficiency and effective tax management contributing to profit growth over the period.
- Overall Trend Analysis
- The data reveals a consistent improvement in both net income and NOPAT from 2015 to 2019, notwithstanding the minor setbacks in 2017. The stronger gains after 2017 suggest enhanced operational performance and possibly favorable market or internal conditions. The parallel movement between net income and NOPAT implies that the operating profits, after accounting for taxes, significantly drive the net profitability of the company.
Cash Operating Taxes

The financial data indicates a fluctuating pattern in the provisions for federal and foreign income taxes over the five-year period. Starting at 733 million US dollars in 2015, the provision increased steadily to reach a peak of 1,114 million in 2017. However, in 2018, the provision experienced a significant decline to 264 million, followed by a recovery to 658 million in 2019. This trend suggests variability in the company's taxable income or changes in tax rates or policies during these years.
Regarding cash operating taxes, the figures show a less consistent trend. The amount decreased slightly from 881 million in 2015 to 840 million in 2016, then rose to 939 million in 2017. Similar to the provision for income taxes, cash operating taxes dropped considerably in 2018 to 327 million before increasing again to 721 million in 2019. The parallel movements in both provision and cash taxes in 2018 and 2019 indicate an underlying correlation in tax strategies or tax liabilities paid.
- Provision for Federal and Foreign Income Taxes
- General upward trend from 2015 to 2017, followed by a sharp decline in 2018 and partial rebound in 2019
- Reflects volatility possibly due to changes in earnings before tax, tax regulations, or deferred tax assets/liabilities adjustments
- Cash Operating Taxes
- Slight fluctuations with a significant drop in 2018 and a recovery in 2019
- Movements suggest impact from operational cash flows and timing differences in tax payments
- Comparison and Insights
- Both tax-related figures exhibit synchronized declines in 2018, indicating potential operational or fiscal events affecting tax computations or payments during that year
- The rebound in 2019 points to normalization or adjustments after an anomalous fiscal period

- Total reported debt & leases
-
The total reported debt and leases demonstrate a gradual declining trend over the analyzed period. Starting from 6,306 million US dollars in 2015, the figure increased slightly in 2016 to 6,421 million but began to decrease thereafter. By 2019, the total reported debt and leases had reduced to 5,679 million, reflecting a consistent effort to manage and reduce debt levels over time.
- Total Raytheon Company stockholders’ equity
-
The stockholders’ equity shows a generally positive upward trend from 2015 to 2019. It started at 10,128 million US dollars in 2015 and experienced a minor decline through 2017, reaching 9,963 million. However, a significant recovery occurred in 2018 and 2019, with equity increasing to 11,472 million and then to 12,223 million respectively. This growth suggests an improvement in the company’s net asset base and potential retention of earnings or capital injection during these latter years.
- Invested capital
-
Invested capital shows a steady increase over the period examined. Beginning at 22,413 million US dollars in 2015, it rose each year, attaining 23,509 million in 2016 and edging slightly upward to 23,548 million in 2017. Subsequently, there was a more pronounced increase in 2018 to 26,081 million, continuing to grow in 2019 to 26,688 million. This upward trend indicates ongoing capital investment or asset expansion, potentially supporting future growth initiatives.

The analysis of the financial indicators over the five-year period from 2015 to 2019 reveals some significant trends and improvements in the company's economic performance.
- Economic Profit
- The economic profit shows an evolving trajectory from negative values in the initial years towards a positive outcome by the end of the period. The figure begins at a substantial loss of $454 million in 2015, slightly improves to a loss of $340 million in 2016, but then worsens again to a loss of $497 million in 2017. However, from 2018 onwards, there is a marked improvement, with the loss narrowing significantly to $174 million, ultimately turning into a positive economic profit of $118 million in 2019. This indicates a turning point in operational efficiency or profitability during the final years of the period under review.
- Invested Capital
- The invested capital shows a steady increase throughout the period. It rises from $22,413 million in 2015 to $26,688 million in 2019. This gradual increase suggests an ongoing commitment to growth or capital expansion. The consistent rise in invested capital could reflect reinvestment in the business or acquisitions that may underpin future earnings potential.
- Economic Spread Ratio
- The economic spread ratio, reflecting the difference between the return on invested capital and the cost of capital, starts negative at -2.02% in 2015 and shows a similar pattern to economic profit. It improves slightly to -1.45% in 2016 but declines again to -2.11% in 2017. From 2018 onwards, the ratio shows a consistent upward trend, moving closer to zero at -0.67%, and turning positive at 0.44% by 2019. This change from negative to positive economic spread indicates the firm began generating returns above its cost of capital by the end of the period, aligning with the positive economic profit observed.
In summary, the data demonstrates an initial period of economic challenges characterized by negative economic profit and spread, despite increasing invested capital. However, the final two years exhibit a clear turnaround, achieving positive economic profit and economic spread, signaling enhanced profitability and more effective utilization of invested capital. This trend may suggest improved operational performance, strategic initiatives bearing fruit, or favorable market conditions contributing to value creation in the latter part of the period.

- Net Sales
- Net sales demonstrated a consistent upward trend over the five-year period. Starting at $23,247 million in 2015, net sales increased steadily each year, reaching $29,176 million by the end of 2019. This represents an approximate 25% growth over the period, indicating sustained revenue growth.
- Economic Profit
- Economic profit exhibited significant volatility throughout the period. Initially, economic profit was negative at -$454 million in 2015, showing some improvement to -$340 million in 2016. However, it deteriorated again to -$497 million in 2017 before showing marked recovery in 2018 (-$174 million) and turning positive at $118 million in 2019. The data suggests a strong turnaround in economic profitability starting in 2018.
- Economic Profit Margin
- The economic profit margin followed a pattern similar to economic profit, remaining negative for most of the period but improving over time. The margin was -1.95% in 2015, improved to -1.41% in 2016, worsened to -1.96% in 2017, and then gradually improved to -0.64% in 2018. By 2019, the margin turned positive at 0.4%, which aligns with the positive economic profit reported that year.
- Overall Insights
- Despite steady growth in revenue, profitability struggled in the earlier years but showed notable recovery in the latter part of the period. The gradual move from negative to positive economic profit and margin in 2019 indicates improved operational efficiency or cost management. The data suggests that while the company grew its sales base consistently, it only recently succeeded in converting that growth into positive economic profit, signifying enhanced value creation starting from 2018 onwards.
