- Net Earnings
-
Net earnings experienced significant volatility over the five-year period. Beginning at 1,020 million US dollars in 2017, the figure surged remarkably to 3,553 million US dollars in 2018, representing a substantial one-year increase. However, this peak was not sustained, as net earnings declined sharply to 2,083 million US dollars in 2019 and further decreased to 1,599 million US dollars in 2020. In 2021, net earnings showed a partial recovery, increasing to 1,994 million US dollars, but remained below the peak level attained in 2018.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
-
NOPAT displayed a more consistent and generally upward trajectory compared to net earnings. Starting at 1,187 million US dollars in 2017, NOPAT increased steadily to 2,098 million US dollars in 2018 and further to 2,347 million US dollars in 2019. Despite a decline in 2020 to 1,867 million US dollars, likely reflecting operational challenges during that year, NOPAT rebounded in 2021 to 2,015 million US dollars. Overall, NOPAT demonstrated more resilience and less volatility than net earnings.
- Comparative Insights
-
Comparing the two metrics reveals that net operating profit after taxes maintained a more stable and sustained improvement trajectory relative to net earnings, which exhibited marked fluctuations. The disparity in patterns suggests that non-operating factors or extraordinary items may have influenced net earnings particularly in 2018, 2019, and 2020. The decrease observed in both measures during 2020 aligns temporally with global disruptions impacting corporate performance. The subsequent partial recovery in 2021 indicates improved financial performance, though net earnings have yet to reach prior peak levels.
Cash Operating Taxes

- Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
- The income tax expense exhibits significant volatility over the analyzed period. In 2017, the expense was positive at 1,043 million USD, indicating a tax liability. However, in 2018, there was a notable reversal with a tax benefit of 1,197 million USD, representing a significant reduction in tax expense or recognition of deferred tax assets. In the subsequent years, the income tax expense resumed positive values, recorded at 479 million USD in 2019, decreasing to 355 million USD in 2020, and further declining to 287 million USD by the end of 2021. This trend suggests a normalization of tax expense after the considerable benefit observed in 2018, with a consistent downward trajectory in tax expense amounts during the latter years.
- Cash Operating Taxes
- Cash operating taxes show a different behavior compared to the income tax expense line. Starting at 1,076 million USD in 2017, there is a sharp decline to 417 million USD in 2018. For the years 2019 and 2020, cash operating taxes remain relatively stable at 383 million USD and 354 million USD, respectively. In 2021, an increase occurs, rising to 583 million USD. This increase may indicate a higher tax cash outflow in the most recent year, potentially due to changes in taxable income, tax policy, or timing differences in tax payments. Overall, cash operating taxes appear to stabilize after the initial decrease, with a notable uptick in the final year of the period analyzed.

3 Addition of allowance for doubtful accounts receivable.

5 Removal of accumulated other comprehensive income.
6 Subtraction of marketable securities.
- Total reported debt & leases
- The total reported debt and leases exhibited an increasing trend from 2017 to 2020, rising from $7,518 million to $14,425 million. This represents a significant increase in leverage over the four-year period. However, in 2021, there was a reduction to $12,901 million, indicating some deleveraging or repayment of obligations after the peak in 2020.
- Total Stryker shareholders’ equity
- Shareholders’ equity showed consistent growth throughout the period under review. Starting at $9,966 million in 2017, equity steadily increased each year, reaching $14,877 million by 2021. This progression suggests ongoing retention of earnings or issuance of equity contributing to strengthening the capital base.
- Invested capital
- Invested capital followed an upward trajectory from 2017 to 2020, growing from $17,502 million to $27,132 million. This growth aligns with the increases in both debt and equity, reflecting expanded investment in assets or operations. In 2021, invested capital slightly decreased to $26,516 million, likely influenced by the reduction in total debt and leases observed in the same year.
