Financials Breakdown Chart

Key Financial Trends

Here are key observations from Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) quarterly filings for the last four years, focusing on cash flow, income statement, and balance sheet trends. The points below are geared for retail investors seeking a concise view of profitability, liquidity, and capital allocation.

  • Net income attributable to common shareholders in Q4 2025: $19.199B, indicating continued solid profitability at the bottom line.
  • Total pre-tax income in Q4 2025: $24.456B, supported by strong earnings before taxes in that quarter.
  • Net cash from continuing operating activities in Q4 2025: $11.192B, reflecting robust cash generation from operations in the quarter (improved versus Q4 2024).
  • Long-term investments on the balance sheet reached about $632.075B by Q3 2025, underscoring Berkshire’s ongoing large-scale investment activity and capital allocation engine.
  • Total assets expanded to approximately $1.226T by Q3 2025, showing scale growth over the period.
  • Total equity near $698.155B in Q3 2025, indicating a strong and sizable equity base.
  • Liquidity remains substantial, with cash & equivalents around $76.3B in Q3 2025 (and peaking above $100B earlier in 2025, per the quarterly series), highlighting ample cash reserves for opportunistic investments or balance-sheet needs.
  • Total gross profit for Q4 2025 is negative (-$44.105B), which is atypical for a traditional manufacturing-like view and appears tied to Berkshire’s conglomerate investment activities and non-operating items rather than core operating performance. This is a neutral signal about the mix of income and non-operating items rather than a pure profitability depressor for ongoing operations.
  • Large investment activity is evident, with substantial purchases of investments (and sizable sales) across quarters, leading to meaningful investing outflows (for example, Q4 2025 net cash used in investing activities about -$38.392B). This reflects Berkshire’s dynamic capital deployment and is neutral to positive depending on future investment performance.
  • Quarterly net change in cash was negative in Q3 2025 (-$24.542B), signaling liquidity outflow that quarter despite earnings strength. This underscores the volatility inherent in Berkshire’s investment-driven cash flows and large-scale capital moves.
