Economic profit remained consistently negative between 2015 and 2019, indicating that operating returns were insufficient to cover the total cost of capital employed during this period. However, a clear trend of improvement is evident, as the economic loss narrowed from US$ 855 million in 2015 to US$ 396 million by 2019.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) Trends
- A sustained upward trajectory in NOPAT is observed, with values increasing from US$ 2,171 million in 2015 to US$ 3,427 million in 2019. The most pronounced growth occurred between 2017 and 2018, where operating profit rose by approximately 25.7%, contributing significantly to the reduction of the economic deficit.
- Capital Investment and Cost Analysis
- Invested capital grew steadily from US$ 22,413 million in 2015 to US$ 26,688 million in 2019. During this same window, the cost of capital rose gradually from 13.50% to 14.32%. This incremental increase in the cost of capital raised the financial hurdle required to generate positive economic value, placing additional pressure on operating performance.
- Economic Profit Convergence
- Although the company failed to achieve a positive economic profit, the gap between NOPAT and the capital charge narrowed substantially after 2017. The shift from an economic loss of US$ 947 million in 2017 to US$ 396 million in 2019 suggests that the rate of increase in operating profit outpaced the growth of the invested capital base and the rise in the cost of capital, indicating an improvement in overall capital efficiency.

- 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
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).
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.

Analysis of the economic value added metrics reveals a period of consistent value destruction, although a trajectory of recovery is evident toward the end of the five-year period.
- Economic Profit Trend
- Economic profit remained negative from 2015 through 2019, indicating that the returns generated were insufficient to cover the cost of capital. After reaching a peak deficit of -947 million US$ in 2017, the losses narrowed consistently, improving to -396 million US$ by December 31, 2019.
- Invested Capital Growth
- A steady increase in invested capital is observed, rising from 22,413 million US$ in 2015 to 26,688 million US$ in 2019. This represents a continuous expansion of the capital base despite the negative economic profit reported throughout the timeframe.
- Economic Spread Ratio Performance
- The economic spread ratio remained negative throughout the period, confirming that the company did not achieve a return on invested capital exceeding its cost of capital. The ratio reached its lowest point of -4.02% in 2017, followed by a notable recovery to -1.48% by 2019. This trend signifies a narrowing gap between the actual return on capital and the required rate of return.
Overall, while the entity failed to generate positive economic value added between 2015 and 2019, the convergence of the economic spread ratio toward zero and the reduction in economic profit deficits indicate an improvement in capital efficiency over the final two years of the analysis.
