Backward-looking filed evidence under visible rules - not a rating, forecast or investment advice. Missing data is never scored.

Evidence signals

  • Operating margin was stable

    Operating margin changed +0.3 percentage points from the prior annual period.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: more than +1 percentage point constructive; below -1 point caution. Period end 2025-10-26.

  • No current rule-based risk flags

    12 filing-based checks were evaluable.

    Why this surfaced

    The full financial analysis shows each value, threshold, and sector limitation.

  • Revenue expanded

    Latest reported annual revenue changed +4.4% from the prior reported annual observation.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: above +2% constructive; below -2% caution; otherwise monitor. This is not labeled one-year growth when filing periods have a gap. Period end 2025-10-26.

Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.

Per fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

Point-in-time ledger

first-reported vs latest filing · periods since 2020-01-01 · 0 changed periods

No period on file has changed between its first report and the latest filing carrying it.

First filing reporting each period vs the latest filing carrying it (10-K and 10-Q only, periods since 2020, the extractor's winning tag per concept); a change under 0.5% is treated as rounding. A change can be a restatement, a reclassification or a re-tagging in a later comparative column; the two filings are linked so the reader can see which. Descriptive, not a verdict.

Borrowing Facilities and Debt Revolving Credit Facilities In September 2025, we entered into a $2.0 billion 364-day committed revolving credit agreement (364-Day Credit Agreement) with a group of banks. The 364-Day Credit Agreement includes a provision under which we may request an increase in the amount of the facility of up to $1.0 billion for a total commitment of no more than $3.0 billion, subject to the receipt of commitments from one or more lenders for any such increase and other customary conditions. The 364-Day Credit Agreement is scheduled to expire in September 2026, provided, however, if any loans are outstanding on the maturity date, we may convert all or part of such loans to term loans that will mature in September 2027, subject to payment of a fee by us and other customary conditions. The 364-Day Credit Agreement provides for unsecured borrowings that bear interest for each advance at one of two rates selected by us, plus an applicable margin, which varies according to our public debt credit ratings. No amounts were outstanding under the 364-Day Credit Agreement as of October 26, 2025. In February 2025, we entered into a $2.0 billion committed revolving credit agreement (Five-Year Credit Agreement) with a group of banks. The Five-Year Credit Agreement includes a provision under which we may request an increase in the amount of the facility of up to $500 million for a total commitment of no more than $2.5 billion, subject to the receipt of commitments from one

New accounting pronouncements · 1,872 characters as filed

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standard update which clarifies how the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions is determined (Topic 820). The amendment clarifies that a contractual sale restriction should not be considered in measuring fair value. It also requires certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures related to equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. We adopted this authoritative guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated condensed financial statements. Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . In November 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses (Topic 280). The standard requires interim and annual disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker (CODM) and included within the reported measure of a segments profit or loss, requires interim disclosures about a reportable segments profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually, requires disclosure of the position and title of the CODM, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclos

Revenue recognition · 2,444 characters as filed

Contract Balances and Performance Obligations Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets primarily result from receivables for goods transferred to customers where payment is conditional upon technical sign off and not just the passage of time. Contract liabilities consist of unsatisfied performance obligations related to advance payments received and billings in excess of revenue recognized. Our contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets are generally classified as current and are included in Other Current Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities are classified as current or non-current based on the timing of when performance obligations will be satisfied and associated revenue is expected to be recognized. Contract balances at the end of each reporting period were as follows: October 26, 2025 October 27, 2024 (In millions) Contract assets $ 281 $ 269 Contract liabilities $ 2,566 $ 2,849 The increase in contract assets during fiscal 2025 was primarily due to an increase in unsatisfied performance obligations related to goods transferred to customers where payment was conditional upon technical sign off. During fiscal 2025, we recognized revenue of approximately $2.4 billion related to contract liabilities at October 27, 2024. Contract liabilities decreased during fiscal 2025 due to revenue recognized related to contract liabilities at October 2

Segment reporting · 7,350 characters as filed

Industry Segment Operations Our two reportable segments are: Semiconductor Systems and Applied Global Services (AGS). The Display operating segment financial results were included in the Corporate and Other category balances below, as management no longer considers the Display operating segment a significant operating segment for separate reporting purposes. Segment information is presented based upon our management organization structure as of October 26, 2025 and the distinctive nature of each segment. Future changes to this internal financial structure may result in changes to our reportable segments. The Semiconductor Systems segment includes semiconductor capital equipment to enable materials engineering steps including etch, rapid thermal processing, deposition, chemical mechanical planarization, metrology and inspection, wafer packaging, and ion implantation. The AGS segment provides integrated solutions to optimize equipment and fab performance and productivity, including spares, upgrades, services, 200 millimeter and other equipment and factory automation software for semiconductor and other products. Our President and Chief Executive Officer is our chief operating decision-maker (CODM). We derive the segment results directly from our internal management reporting system. The accounting policies we use to derive reportable segment results are substantially the same as those used for external reporting purposes. Management measures the performance of each reportable s
