Historical source-based research. Compilation date and financial period are different dates.

Research summary

A two-period review of BRK-B revenue, profitability and cash conversion; reported revenue growth was -0.99%.

Period comparison

FY2025 ended 2025-12-31; the prior observation ended 2024-12-31. Revenue moved from USD 249.714 billion to USD 247.244 billion. These are annual periods, not quarterly earnings or trailing-twelve-month estimates.

Earnings bridge

Net income moved from USD 88.995 billion to USD 66.968 billion. Operating income moved from not available to not available. Net margin moved from 35.64% to 27.09%. A margin change identifies an outcome; its causes require management discussion and footnotes.

Cash-flow cross-check

Operating cash flow was USD 30.592 billion in the earlier period and USD 45.969 billion in the later period. Selected free cash flow was USD 11.616 billion and USD 25.042 billion, respectively. Working-capital timing can cause earnings and cash to diverge.

Interpretation and limits

A rise in reported revenue does not by itself identify organic growth. A difference in EPS can reflect share-count changes as well as operating performance. No causal claim is made from these aggregate figures.

Valuation context

Company profiles show eligible dated valuation ratios using the September 17, 2026 price snapshot and selected annual accounting denominators. Capitalization-based measures use estimates and are identified as such. These are not live, TTM or forward values. A historical-multiple series and EV/EBITDA are not available. Sector medians describe a selected sample; they do not establish fair value or expected returns.

What to monitor

Net interest income, credit provisions, fee income, underwriting results and capital adequacy.

Risks and uncertainties

Credit losses, deposit pricing, reserve assumptions, market liquidity and regulatory capital.
