How to read key metrics on this page
These short guides explain what the headline metrics mean, what to compare next, and where to open the live SEC-backed example for this company.
Plain-English Guide
How to read Net Income on this page
Net income is profit after operating costs, interest, taxes, and other non-operating items.
Why people care
It is the bottom-line profit figure many users recognize first, especially when they want to compare earnings with sales or cash flow.
How to read it
Use the same quarter or fiscal year comparison first, then check operating income or cash flow if the bottom line moved sharply.
Compare next
Compare it with operating income, EPS, and operating cash flow to see whether earnings are broad-based or driven by one-off items.
Net income can swing because of tax, financing, or accounting adjustments, so it is often less comparable than core operating metrics.

| ROE | 15 | 8% to 25% |
| ROA | 10 | 2% to 10% |

- Current Assets / Current Liabilities (latest instant quarter)
- (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities; fallback: (Cash+Short-Term Investments + Accounts Receivable) / Current Liabilities
- Total Debt / Stockholders Equity (latest instant quarter; shared unit; freshest series)
- TTM Net Income / Average Equity (current quarter + same quarter previous year) / 2
- TTM Net Income / Average Assets (current quarter + same quarter previous year) / 2
- TTM NOPAT / Average Invested Capital, where NOPAT=Operating Income*(1-tax rate), Invested Capital=Equity+Total Debt-Cash & ST Investments
