Zoetis Inc., decomposition of ROE

Microsoft Excel
ROE = ROA × Financial Leverage
Dec 31, 2023 = ×
Dec 31, 2022 = ×
Dec 31, 2021 = ×
Dec 31, 2020 = ×

Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2019-12-31).


Return on Assets (ROA)
The Return on Assets demonstrates an overall upward trend over the five-year period. Starting at 12.99% in 2019, it slightly decreased to 12.04% in 2020, followed by a notable increase reaching 14.65% in 2021. The ROA remained relatively stable in 2022 at 14.16%, before rising more substantially to 16.41% in 2023. This indicates an improving efficiency in utilizing assets to generate profits over time.
Financial Leverage
The Financial Leverage ratio exhibited a consistent decline from 4.26 in 2019 to 2.86 in 2023. This steady decrease suggests a gradual reduction in the company’s use of debt relative to equity. A lower financial leverage ratio typically indicates a more conservative capital structure and potentially reduced financial risk.
Return on Equity (ROE)
The Return on Equity declined markedly from 55.39% in 2019 to 43.46% in 2020. Subsequently, it exhibited a moderate recovery, increasing to 44.84% in 2021 and further to 47.99% in 2022. However, this was followed by a slight decrease to 46.91% in 2023. Overall, the ROE remains high, reflecting strong profitability for equity holders despite fluctuations during the period.

Net Profit Margin
The net profit margin shows a consistent upward trend over the five-year period. It increased from 23.96% in 2019 to 27.43% in 2023, reflecting improved profitability. The margin rose notably between 2020 and 2021, and maintained a steady increase thereafter, suggesting effective cost management or higher revenue quality.
Asset Turnover
The asset turnover ratio exhibits some fluctuation but an overall upward movement from 0.54 in 2019 to 0.60 in 2023. After declining to 0.49 in 2020, it rebounded in 2021 and remained relatively stable before gaining further in 2023. This pattern indicates enhanced efficiency in utilizing assets to generate sales in recent years.
Financial Leverage
Financial leverage has steadily decreased from 4.26 in 2019 to 2.86 in 2023. This significant reduction suggests a deliberate effort to lower reliance on debt or external financing. The consistent decline may reflect a strategy towards a more conservative capital structure, reducing financial risk over time.
Return on Equity (ROE)
Return on equity declined notably from 55.39% in 2019 to 43.46% in 2020, followed by a gradual recovery, reaching 46.91% in 2023. Despite this recovery, the ROE remains below the initial 2019 level. The decline corresponds with the reduced financial leverage, indicating that lower leverage has moderated equity returns, although operational efficiency improvements may have supported partial recovery.

Tax Burden
The tax burden ratio remained relatively stable over the five-year period, holding steady around 0.8 to 0.83. This indicates consistent tax efficiency, with only a slight decline from 0.83 in 2019 to 0.8 in 2022 and 2023.
Interest Burden
The interest burden ratio showed a moderate increase, rising from 0.89 in 2019 to 0.92 by 2021 and maintaining that level through 2023. This suggests a slight improvement in operating earnings before interest expenses relative to earnings before taxes.
EBIT Margin
The EBIT margin displayed a steady upward trend, increasing annually from 32.33% in 2019 to 37.21% in 2023. This gradual increase reflects improving operating profitability over the period.
Asset Turnover
The asset turnover ratio fluctuated slightly year to year, starting at 0.54 in 2019, dipping to 0.49 in 2020, then recovering and reaching 0.6 in 2023. The final value surpasses the initial, indicating enhanced efficiency in using assets to generate sales.
Financial Leverage
Financial leverage experienced a notable downward trend from 4.26 in 2019 to 2.86 in 2023. This significant reduction suggests the company has decreased reliance on debt financing relative to equity over time.
Return on Equity (ROE)
Return on equity declined sharply from 55.39% in 2019 to 43.46% in 2020, then recovered moderately to around 47% in subsequent years. Despite the recovery, the ROE in 2023 remains below the 2019 peak. This movement could reflect the combined effects of changing leverage, profitability, and asset management efficiency.
