Intel: Brief Summary
Intel Incorporated is one of the most sought-after stocks in the world. The company’s legendary founder, Gordon Moore, is world-renowned. Intel Inc. continues to innovate and disrupt its industry under the current leadership of Bob Swan.
These circumstances have resulted in the organization becoming an industry leader. For some, these facts alone are reason enough to buy stock in the company.
Intel Financial Report Sources
“Intel 2019 Company Analysis: Financial Statements and Financial Ratios: Defined, Discussed, and Analyzed for 5 Years” was written by, Paul Borosky, MBA., and owner of Quality Business Plan. In this book, the author selected Intel's 2019 10k, 2017 10k annual report, 2016 10k annual report, 2015 10k annual report, and Intel's 2019 10k annual report as the basis for information gathering.
Section 1: Intel Income Statement Analyzed
In this section, I walk through a broad definition of what an income statement is and why it is important. From this, I then discuss and define income statement line items, such as revenues, gross profits, etc. in detail. After each line item is defined and discussed, I finally offer a summary analysis of Inte's important income statement line item trends from 2015 to 2019, in most cases.
Revenue Growth: Intel’s revenues ended 2015 at $55 billion. Over the next five years, the company increased its revenues to approximately 71.9 billion. This is an average growth rate of about 7%. However, the slowest annual growth rate was 1.6% from 2018 to 2019. If this trend continues, then investors should expect the company to initiate cost-cutting measures to best optimize operations to account for slower revenue growth.
SG&A: The company’s SG&A was 14.3% of revenues in 2015. In 2019, this line item fell to 8.5% of revenues. This indicates that the company has taken measures to reduce its overall costs as compared to revenues. As revenue growth continues to slow, investors should expect this practice to continue.

Section 2: Intel Balance Sheet Analyzed
For Intel's balance sheet, I again go through each important line item from the balance sheet. In reviewing each line item, I will define Intel's balance sheet line item, such as cash, property, plant and equipment, and liabilities between 2015 to 2019. Next, I then offer a summary analysis of Intel’s important balance sheet line items.
Cash: Intel’s cash position fell from $15.3 billion in 2015 to $4.2 billion in 2019. This decrease in cash may indicate that the company is better at using its short-term investment opportunities. Because the cash level seems to be trending down on an annual basis, and the net income tends to be going up, this indicates that asset reallocation is probably a safe guess.
Short-term Investments: The organization's short-term investments ended 2015 at $2.7 billion. Over the next five years, the organization decreases its short-term investments to approximately $1 billion. This indicates that the company is using its short-term investment reserves for either acquisition or for operations purposes.

Section 3: Intel Financial Ratios Analyzed
For this section, I have chosen several different financial ratios to review for Intel from 2015 to 2019. In reviewing each of Intel's financial ratios, I first start with defining the financial ratio. Next, I supply the financial formula for calculating the specific ratio. Finally, I offer a brief analysis of Intel’s Important Financial ratios.
Intel Current Ratio
Intel’s current ratio fell from 2.4 in 2015 to 1.4 and 2019. Also, this decline has been periodic over the last five years. This shows that the company has taken steps to better utilize its cash. A cautionary note, if their current ratio falls below 1.0, investors should become concerned about short-term liquidity.
Intel Fixed Asset Turnover
The fixed asset turnover for the firm ended 2015 at 1.74. Over the next five years, the company’s ratio would steadily fall to 1.3. This indicates that the company is using its fixed assets less optimally over time. This problem falls square upon the shoulders of the executive and management team. To mitigate this issue, the organization should take action to liquidate some fixed assets that are not being fully utilized.
Intel Return on Equity
Intel’s return on equity ended 2015 at 18.7%. Over the next few years, this would grow to approximately 27.2%. Their return on equity growth may be spurred by their increased use of debt. Regardless, as long as their risk is not elevated too much, this is an excellent strategy.
Intel Debt Ratio
Intel’s debt ratio had fallen from 19.75% in 2015 to 18.5% in 2019. In reviewing technology competitors, their debt ratio seems to be well below average. A better strategy would be for the organization to take on debt to about a 30 to 40% ratio. With these additional funds, the company may be able to acquire other companies, payout dividends, or initiate a stock buyback strategy.
