Risk-factor diff

FY 2025 10-K vs. FY 2024
+237 new−220 removed

Net-new paragraphs in the most recent 10-K's Item 1A. Companies rarely add risk language without a real reason — additions here are often a leading signal of management concerns.

NEW · FY 2025

“- Legal and Regulatory Risks and Note 19 (Legal and Regulatory Proceedings) to the consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8.”

NEW · FY 2025

“Net cash provided by operating activities increased $2.9 billion in 2025 versus the prior year, primarily due to higher net income after adjusting for non-cash items.”

NEW · FY 2025

“Net cash used in investing activities decreased $2.0 billion in 2025 versus the prior year, primarily due to less cash paid for business acquisitions and lower purchases of investment securities, partially offset by lower proceeds from maturities and sales of investment securities.”

NEW · FY 2025

“Net cash used in financing activities increased $3.3 billion in 2025 versus the prior year, primarily due to lower proceeds from debt and higher cash paid for repurchases of our Class A common stock and dividends, partially offset by higher repayments of debt in the prior year.”

NEW · FY 2025

“In February 2025, we issued $300 million principal amount of Floating Rate Notes due March 2028, $450 million principal amount of 4.550% notes due March 2028 and $500 million principal amount of 4.950% notes due March 2032 (collectively, the “2025 USD Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 USD Notes, after deducting the original issue discount, underwriting discount and offering expenses, were $1.242 billion.”
