The analysis of the financial data reveals distinct trends in profitability, capital costs, and investment levels over the five-year period.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT increased steadily from 2019 to 2021, rising from $1,570 million to $2,131 million. However, in 2022, there was a decline to $1,958 million before recovering sharply to reach the highest value of $2,410 million in 2023. This indicates an overall positive growth trend in operational profitability despite a temporary setback in 2022.
- Cost of Capital
- The cost of capital remained relatively stable throughout the period, fluctuating marginally between 12.72% and 12.97%. There is a slight upward drift from 12.77% in 2019 to 12.97% in 2023, reflecting a consistent cost environment with minimal volatility.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital showed an increasing trend from 2019 to 2022, rising from $9,838 million to $12,542 million. However, a decrease occurred in 2023, where invested capital dropped to $11,550 million. This suggests a possible restructuring or divestment after a period of capital expansion.
- Economic Profit
- Economic profit experienced fluctuations with an initial increase from $313 million in 2019 to $633 million in 2021. This was followed by a decline to $334 million in 2022, then a significant surge to $912 million in 2023, the highest in the given period. The pattern mirrors the NOPAT trend but demonstrates stronger recovery and growth relative to cost of capital and invested capital.
Overall, the company exhibited increased operating profitability and economic profit over the analyzed period, with a consistent cost of capital. Despite a dip in both NOPAT and economic profit in 2022, there was a strong rebound in 2023. The reduction in invested capital in the final year may have contributed to enhanced economic profit, indicating improved capital efficiency or strategic asset management.

- Net income attributable to Zoetis Inc.
- The net income shows a consistent upward trend across the five-year period. Starting at 1,500 million USD in 2019, it increased each year, reaching 2,344 million USD by the end of 2023. The growth was steady, with notable acceleration between 2020 and 2021, and continuing to rise through 2023, indicating improving profitability over time.
- Net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT generally trended upwards from 1,570 million USD in 2019 to 2,410 million USD in 2023. There was a significant increase between 2019 and 2021, peaking at 2,131 million USD. A decline was observed in 2022, dropping to 1,958 million USD, before rebounding strongly in 2023 to the highest level in the period.

- Provision for Taxes on Income
- The provision for taxes on income exhibits a consistent upward trend over the five-year period. Starting at $301 million in 2019, the amount increased each subsequent year, reaching $596 million in 2023. The growth appears steady, with noticeable jumps especially between 2020 and 2021, and continuing through 2022 and 2023. This indicates increasing tax liabilities or higher taxable income over time.
- Cash Operating Taxes
- Cash operating taxes generally increased from 2019 to 2022, starting at $422 million and peaking at $867 million in 2022. However, there is a significant decline observed in 2023, dropping to $687 million. While the overall trend is upward through most years, the decrease in the last year suggests changes in tax payment timing, effective tax rates, or operational adjustments impacting cash taxes paid.
- Comparative Insights
- Although both provisions for taxes on income and cash operating taxes increased overall, the divergence in 2023 is noteworthy. The provision continues to rise, whereas cash taxes paid decline, which may signal temporary timing differences or more efficient tax planning. The increasing provision paired with fluctuating cash taxes suggests that the accrual for taxes is rising in anticipation of income growth despite a recent drop in cash outflows for taxes.

The financial data reveals distinct trends in economic profit, invested capital, and economic spread ratio over the five-year period examined.
- Economic profit
- Economic profit displayed fluctuations across the years. It started at 313 million US dollars in 2019, followed by a decrease to 256 million in 2020. The figure then showed a strong recovery and growth to 633 million in 2021. A subsequent decline to 334 million occurred in 2022, but the profit surged again to reach the highest point of 912 million in 2023. Overall, economic profit exhibited volatility but demonstrated an upward trend with substantial improvement by the end of the period.
- Invested capital
- Invested capital rose steadily from 9,838 million US dollars in 2019 to 11,557 million in 2020. The amount remained relatively stable during 2021 at 11,612 million and increased further to a peak of 12,542 million in 2022 before declining to 11,550 million in 2023. The overall pattern points to moderate growth in the capital base with a slight contraction in the last year observed.
- Economic spread ratio
- The economic spread ratio, expressed as a percentage, showed notable variability. It began at 3.19% in 2019 and decreased to 2.22% in 2020. A marked improvement occurred in 2021 with a rise to 5.45%, followed by a decline to 2.67% in 2022. The ratio then increased significantly to 7.9% in 2023, reflecting enhanced returns relative to invested capital in the final year. This ratio experienced considerable fluctuations but ended markedly higher than at the start.
In summary, while invested capital experienced moderate growth with some recent contraction, economic profit and the economic spread ratio demonstrated considerable volatility with notable rebounds in 2021 and substantial improvements by 2023. These trends suggest periods of variable operational efficiency and profitability, culminating in stronger financial performance indicators at the end of the period.

3 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The financial data from the annual periods under consideration reveals several noteworthy trends and patterns concerning economic profit, revenue, and the associated economic profit margin.
- Revenue
- Revenue has demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory over the five-year horizon, growing from 6,260 million US dollars in 2019 to 8,544 million US dollars in 2023. This reflects a steady expansion in sales or service income, with incremental increases year over year, indicative of business growth and potentially successful market strategies.
- Economic Profit
- The economic profit figures have shown more volatility compared to revenue. After a slight decline from 313 million US dollars in 2019 to 256 million in 2020, economic profit rebounded strongly in 2021 to 633 million. This was followed by a decrease to 334 million in 2022 before reaching a peak of 912 million in 2023. Such fluctuations suggest varying impacts of costs, investment returns, or operational efficiencies over the periods analyzed.
- Economic Profit Margin
- The economic profit margin, which measures economic profit as a percentage of revenue, exhibits a similar variability to economic profit itself. Beginning at 5.01% in 2019, it declined to 3.84% in 2020, implying reduced profitability relative to revenue in that year. A notable increase occurred in 2021, up to 8.14%, followed by a decrease to 4.14% in 2022. The margin then rose sharply to 10.68% in 2023, the highest in the five-year span, indicating improved profitability and efficiency in generating economic value from revenue.
In summary, while revenue growth appears steady and positive, economic profit and economic profit margin show more pronounced fluctuations, suggesting variable cost structures, investment returns, or operational efficiency across the periods. The strong rebound in 2023 reflects improved profitability, marking a significant positive shift in economic performance relative to previous years.
