For every $100 of reported revenue
2026-01-01–2026-09-30 · ratios from the same reported period
Profit includes accounting items that may not involve cash today. Operating cash flow measures cash from operations; capital spending covers the reported investment measure. These ratios help compare scale, but industry, seasonality and one-time items still matter. They are not a breakdown that adds to $100.
Two operating segments
The cash-flow statement reports no common-stock repurchase payments for January–September 2026. That zero is a historical result, not an assertion that the company has no authorization. Segment shares are calculated from consolidated revenue for the same period.

Company Health Score
Expand for the score breakdown and outlookSolid overall health
Our assessment of the reported financial position and the company-specific outlook.
Higher means stronger overall financial health under this model. This is World Numbers’ subjective assessment, not an official rating or a prediction of the stock price. It does not establish that shares are good value.
$11.22B cash and equivalents against $206.45B total liabilities. This excludes marketable investments.
26.1% change in latest-quarter revenue from the comparable year-earlier quarter.
28.9% net margin for the reported 273-day period. One-time gains or charges can affect this measure.
$13.82B operating cash flow after cash capital spending for the same reported period. This is a calculation, not all investing or financing activity.
Advertising demand and AI-assisted recommendations support revenue. Rising infrastructure spending, Reality Labs losses, competition and privacy or regulatory limits could weaken cash returns.
Looking ahead
Advertising demand and AI-assisted recommendations support revenue. Rising infrastructure spending, Reality Labs losses, competition and privacy or regulatory limits could weaken cash returns.

How we arrived at the score
Cash scores use cash ÷ liabilities: at least 0.5 scores 9, 0.25 scores 8, 0.1 scores 6; otherwise 4. Revenue growth scores: at least 30% scores 9, 10% scores 8, non-negative scores 6; otherwise 3. Net margin scores: at least 20% scores 9, 10% scores 8, non-negative scores 6; otherwise 3. Cash after investment ÷ revenue scores: at least 15% scores 9, 5% scores 8, non-negative scores 6; otherwise 3. Future outlook is an editorial score. The weighted result is 7.05, rounded to 7. These thresholds and weights are judgment choices, not statistically validated probabilities. The assessment uses data through 2026-09-30; it does not update each second.

How World Numbers calculates estimatesHow the estimates work
We divide each reported flow by its actual 273-day reporting period. The daily rate is spread evenly over elapsed UTC time and resets at midnight. Refreshing the page does not restart the counter. The next-calendar-quarter illustration holds that pace unchanged; it is not live sales or a company forecast. Annual executive pay is spread across the current calendar year, including leap-year day counts. Stock awards, balances, employees and shares are not current payroll or live counts. Company-specific limitations: The cash-flow statement reports no common-stock repurchase payments for January–September 2026. That zero is a historical result, not an assertion that the company has no authorization.
