Sample Report
Meta (Facebook) Income Statement Analysis Sample
In this section of the financial report, I walk you through a broad definition of what an income statement is and why it is essential. From this, I then discuss and define important income statement line items, such as revenues, gross profits, etc., in detail. Finally, I offer a summary analysis of the company's important income statement line item trends. For example,...
Meta Cost of Goods Sold.
Meta’s cost of goods sold (COGS) was $5.4 billion in 2017. As compared to revenues, its cost of goods sold was 13.4%. In the next four years, the company’s cost of goods sold would increase to $22.6 billion or 19.2% of revenues. This trend indicates that the cost of goods sold as compared to revenues was increasing at a faster pace as compared to the sales. This trend should concern investors. Eventually, Meta will need to increase product/service prices to better align with variable cost growth.

Meta (Facebook) Balance Sheet Analysis Sample
In this section of the financial report, I walk you through a broad definition of what a balance sheet is and why it is important. From this, I then discuss and define important balance sheet line items, such as cash, inventory, etc., in detail. Finally, I offer a summary analysis of the company's important balance sheet line item trends. For example,...
Meta (Facebook) Property, Plant, and Equipment
Meta’s property, plant, and equipment (PP&E) were $13.7 billion, or 98% of sales in 2017. In the next several years, the company would increase its property, plant, and equipment to $57.8 billion or 136% of sales in 2021. This trend shows that the company is possibly underutilizing its fixed assets from the perspective of revenue generation. A better strategy would be for the company to divest underutilized fixed assets to better align their property, plant, and equipment with sales sustainability.

Meta (Facebook) Financial Ratios Sample
In this section of the financial report, I walk you through definitions of various popular financial ratios, how to calculate the ratios, formulas used, etc. Also, for some popular financial ratios, I provide brief explanations of what the ratios mean as it is related to the company.
Meta (Facebook) Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio
Meta’s fixed asset turnover was 2.9 in 2017. In the next four years, the organization’s fixed asset turnover would fall to 2.04. This trend indicates the company may be underutilizing its fixed assets, specifically its property, plant, and equipment. Because of this issue, the firm may need to divest some underutilized fixed assets to best optimize its asset management practices. From an investor’s perspective, this is a poor trend.
Analyst Grade: B
Meta (Facebook) Return on Equity
Meta’s return on equity (ROE) was 21.4% in 2017. In 2021, the company’s return on equity was 31.3%. This trend indicates that the company is doing a good job of utilizing equity in financing revenue growth. However, the organization may be able to increase its return on equity by utilizing short-term and long-term debt for operations and growth opportunities. From an investor’s perspective, this is a below-average trend.
