Long-term Activity Ratios (Summary)
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., long-term (investment) activity ratios (quarterly data)
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-09-27), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-06-28), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-29), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-28), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-29), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-07-01), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-04-01), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-10-01), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-07-02), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-04-02), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-10-02), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-07-03), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-04-03).
The financial ratios over the reported periods indicate distinct trends in asset utilization and equity efficiency.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover
- This ratio shows a decreasing trend from an initial value of 5.85, declining steadily to 4.3 in the latest period. The decline is more pronounced from late 2021 onwards. The ratio fluctuates mildly but generally trends downward, indicating that the company is generating less revenue per unit of net fixed assets over time.
- Total Asset Turnover
- This ratio also exhibits a downward trajectory, albeit less steep than net fixed asset turnover. Starting around 0.54–0.57, it dips significantly during the period ending December 31, 2021, to approximately 0.41, then experiences moderate recovery, fluctuating around 0.42 to 0.46 in subsequent periods. The trend suggests a decline in overall asset efficiency, with a somewhat stable but lower utilization rate in recent quarters.
- Equity Turnover
- The equity turnover ratio begins slightly above 1.0 but shows a consistent decline over the periods. By the most recent quarters, it has decreased to approximately 0.86. This gradual reduction implies a diminishing capacity to generate sales from shareholders' equity, reflecting possible changes in equity base or sales volume efficiency.
In summary, all three turnover ratios demonstrate a trend toward reduced efficiency in asset and equity utilization. The most significant decline is observed in net fixed asset turnover, followed by equity turnover and total asset turnover. These patterns could indicate either growing asset bases not fully matched by sales growth or operational challenges affecting revenue generation efficiency relative to asset and equity investment.

The financial data indicates several notable trends over the observed periods. Revenues exhibit fluctuations with some quarters showing growth and others mild declines. Initially, revenues increased from approximately 9,906 million US dollars to a peak exceeding 11,800 million US dollars by early 2022. Subsequently, revenues experienced a period of declines and stabilization, fluctuating around 10,300 to 11,400 million US dollars toward the latter periods.
Regarding property, plant, and equipment net values, there is a clear upward trend throughout the timeline. The asset base increased steadily from about 6,133 million US dollars at the beginning to over 10,000 million US dollars by the latest quarter. This consistent growth suggests ongoing capital investments and expansion in fixed assets.
The net fixed asset turnover ratio demonstrates a declining pattern over the periods. Starting at approximately 5.85, this ratio gradually decreased to around 4.3 by the end of the timeline. This declining turnover ratio indicates that revenue generated per unit of fixed asset has diminished, which could suggest either decreasing efficiency in asset utilization or that recent fixed asset additions have not yet translated into proportional revenue increases.
- Revenues
- Experienced growth until early 2022, followed by fluctuations with no clear sustained upward or downward trajectory.
- Ranges from approximately 9,900 million to a peak of about 11,800 million US dollars.
- Property, Plant and Equipment (Net)
- Displays a steady increase, indicating ongoing capital expenditure and asset accumulation.
- Values rose from approximately 6,100 million to over 10,100 million US dollars.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio
- Shows a gradual decline, suggesting decreasing efficiency in the use of fixed assets to generate revenue.
- Dropped from near 5.85 down to around 4.3 over the period.
In summary, the company shows a strategy focused on increasing its asset base, but with a concurrent reduction in asset turnover efficiency and variable revenue performance. These patterns may warrant closer analysis into the causes behind fixed asset utilizations and revenue generation dynamics.

The analysis of the financial data over the observed periods reveals several noteworthy trends in the key financial metrics.
- Revenues
- Revenues exhibit a generally fluctuating pattern with some periods of growth followed by declines. Initially, revenues decreased from 9,906 million USD in April 2021 to a low of 9,273 million USD in July 2021. This was followed by an upward trend peaking at 11,818 million USD by April 2022. After this peak, a gradual downturn occurred through the subsequent quarters, with revenues reaching a lower point near 10,345 million USD in March 2024. Towards the end of the timeline, revenues showed signs of recovery, increasing again to 11,122 million USD by September 2025. This indicates a cyclical revenue pattern with moderate volatility but overall resilience against a backdrop of economic fluctuations.
- Total Assets
- Total assets showed consistent growth throughout the periods analyzed. Starting at 65,931 million USD in April 2021, the asset base expanded significantly to a peak just above 103,000 million USD by September 2025. There were some slight variations and plateaus, but the overall trajectory is upward. This steady increase in assets suggests ongoing investments or acquisitions, signifying expansion or capital accumulation strategies by the company to support its operations.
- Total Asset Turnover Ratio
- The total asset turnover ratio shows a declining trend over the periods, indicating a decrease in the efficiency with which the company uses its assets to generate revenues. The ratio started at 0.54 in April 2021, subsequently declining to approximately 0.42 by the end of the observed period in September 2025. While some minor fluctuations occurred, the overall trend suggests that the revenue generated per unit of asset has diminished. This decline could reflect challenges in asset utilization or changes in the asset mix that have not yet translated into proportionate revenue growth.
In summary, the company experienced a growing asset base paired with cyclical revenue movements and a gradual decline in asset turnover efficiency. Continuous growth in assets points toward expansion efforts, yet the diminished turnover ratio highlights a potential area for improving operational efficiency or revenue generation relative to the company's investment in assets.

- Revenue Trends
- The revenues demonstrate a fluctuating yet generally stable pattern over the observed quarters. An initial increase is evident from April 2021 to December 2021, rising from approximately 9,906 million USD to 10,702 million USD. Thereafter, revenues peak around April 2022 at 11,818 million USD, followed by a moderate decline through the rest of 2022, with values oscillating around the 10,600 to 11,450 million USD range. The first half of 2023 sees a dip, with revenues ranging from roughly 10,574 million USD to 10,886 million USD, and a similar pattern continues through 2024 with slight variability and a rise towards the end of the year, reaching approximately 11,395 million USD by December 2024. In 2025, revenues display moderate growth, surpassing 11,000 million USD in the later quarters.
- Shareholders’ Equity Trends
- The total shareholders’ equity exhibits a consistent upward trend throughout the period examined, increasing from 35,058 million USD in April 2021 to over 51,000 million USD by September 2025. This steady expansion suggests ongoing capital accumulation and reinvestment within the company, with only minor fluctuations. Notably, equity growth is persistent even during quarters where revenues experience minor declines, indicating robust balance sheet strength and potentially effective capital management.
- Equity Turnover Analysis
- Equity turnover, a measure of how efficiently equity is used to generate revenue, starts near 1.02 in early 2021 and remains relatively stable around the 1.0 mark through mid-2022. Subsequently, a gradual downward trend emerges, with the ratio decreasing to approximately 0.86 toward the end of the observed period. This decline in equity turnover suggests a less efficient utilization of shareholders' equity to produce revenue over time, despite the increase in equity and stable revenue figures. This may warrant further investigation into operational efficiency or changes in business strategy affecting asset deployment.
