Alcon revenue, profit and debt trends

About these charts

Source: ALC’s SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q), the same figures as its financial statements. Fiscal years are as reported; a fourth quarter is the year less its first three where the company files none of its own; TTM is the trailing twelve months. A balance or a valuation beside the fiscal years is the newest quarter’s. Valuation is at each period’s end, at that day’s close. Debt is short- and long-term borrowings as filed, leases apart; cash includes short-term investments. Interest cover is operating income over interest expense. Revenue by segment, product and region is each 10-K’s own table, named as the filing names its rows, and only where the rows add up to the revenue the filing reports. The backlog is the remaining performance obligation the filings state: revenue under contract and not yet earned. Debt due by year is the newest 10-K’s schedule of long-term debt principal. Not investment advice.
