Income Statement

Income Statement


Basic Shares

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Number

Total outstanding shares (basic count, not in millions).

Basic Shares (M)

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions

Total outstanding shares (basic count, not diluted) in millions from the most recent filings.

Cost of Sales

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Direct costs of producing goods or services sold (COGS). Rising COGS as a percentage of sales (declining gross margin) may signal input cost pressure.

Depreciation and Amortization

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Depreciation and amortization expense over the trailing 12 months. A non-cash charge that reduces reported earnings but not actual cash flow.

Diluted Shares (M)

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions

Total diluted shares outstanding in millions. Diluted values assume all options, warrants, and convertibles are exercised. Track changes over time — rising counts dilute shareholders; falling counts (from buybacks) increase ownership.

Diluted Shares

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Number

The total diluted number of outstanding shares as reported in quarterly or annual filings. Diluted values are calculated by assuming all convertible securities and options have been exercised.

Note: This value is not divided by one million (unlike the Shares metric).

EBIT

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Earnings before interest and taxes. Used in EV/EBIT valuations and interest coverage analysis. Allows comparison across different capital structures.

EBITDA

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. A widely used proxy for operating cash generation that strips out financing and accounting differences. Used in EV/EBITDA valuations.

Float

Chartable: No

Unit: Number

Float — shares available for public trading, excluding restricted insider stock.

Income After Tax

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Income after tax but before minority interests and extraordinary items.

Income Before Tax

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Total income before income tax. Useful for comparing profitability across different tax jurisdictions.

Interest Expense

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

The cost of servicing debt over the trailing 12 months. Combine with Interest Coverage to see whether the company comfortably handles debt payments.

Margin Trend Slope (Ultimate)

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Number

OLS regression slope of quarterly operating margin over the trailing 20 quarters, expressed in basis points of margin change per quarter. Positive values indicate structurally improving margins; negative values indicate deterioration that may not yet appear in annual comparisons.

How to use it: Far more informative than comparing two endpoints, since it uses all the data and captures the full trajectory. A company grinding from 12% to 18% over five years has a very different profile from one that jumped immediately then flatlined.

Net Income

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Bottom-line profit after all costs, expenses, interest, and taxes. Compare to cash flow from operations to check earnings quality — if cash flow consistently trails net income, accounting may be aggressive.

Net Income Common Stockholders

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Net income minus preferred share dividends — the profit available to common stockholders. The numerator for basic and diluted EPS.

Net Income From Continuing And Discontinued Operation

Chartable: No

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Net income including both continuing and discontinued operations. Compare to standard Net Income to isolate the impact of discontinued business segments.

Operating Income

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Revenue minus all operating expenses (COGS, SG&A, R&D, depreciation). Shows profit from core business operations, excluding interest and taxes.

Operating Leverage (Ultimate)

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Number

Ratio of the percentage change in operating income to the percentage change in revenue over the trailing year. A value of 2.5 means 10% revenue growth produces 25% operating income growth, but also that 10% revenue decline produces 25% operating income decline. High operating leverage amplifies both upside and downside surprises.

Note: Displayed as N/M when revenue change is less than ±1%.

Other Income and Expenses

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Income or expenses from miscellaneous sources outside of core operations.

Research and Development

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Total R&D spending over the trailing 12 months. View alongside R&D Margin to see this as a percentage of sales.

Sales

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Total revenue over the past 12 months (TTM). The top line of the income statement.

Sales Per Employee USD

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Dollars

Revenue divided by number of employees (USD). A simple workforce productivity measure. Tech companies often exceed $500K; retail may be under $200K.

Selling General and Administrative

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Millions of Dollars

The aggregate total costs related to selling a firm’s products and services, as well as all other general and administrative expenses (SG&A). Selling expenses include those directly related to generating sales (e.g., sales salaries, commissions, advertising, delivery expenses). General and administrative expenses include general company operations (e.g., officer and office salaries, office supplies, telephone, accounting and legal services, and business licenses and fees).

How to use it: Track SG&A as a percentage of sales over time using the SG&A Margin metric. A declining percentage often signals improving operating leverage.

Shares Outstanding

Chartable: No

Unit: Number

Shares outstanding from the latest corporate reports. May be more current than the diluted count from quarterly/annual filings.

Short Interest Ratio

Chartable: No

Unit: Number

Days to cover all short positions at average daily volume. Above 5 days is considered high short interest.

Tax Rate

Chartable: Yes

Unit: Percentage

Income tax provision as a percentage of pre-tax income. Unusually low or volatile tax rates deserve investigation — they may signal one-time benefits or aggressive tax strategies.

Chartable: No

Unit: Millions of Dollars

Average annual free cash flow over the last 5 years.

5‑Year Avg. Net Profit ($M)
