Inventory has been pretty consistent. Check if it's rising together with net earnings. If it is, that means the rising inventory is to keep with sales at the appropriate levels. What you don't want to see if wild variation in inventory levels, which would indicate boom & bust cycles.
Company's without competitive advantage have an ever increasing amount of PPE, which is going also be accompanied by increasing Depreciation expenses. This is a bad because it eats into the profits of the company and indicates that the company likely needs to continuously reinvent their products. This could indicate they are facing fierce competition and a lack of a competitive advantage. It’s particularly worse if the increases in PPE investments are done using debt, rather than internal sources so check debt growth.
Goodwill is relatively consistent. If Goodwill stays the same year after year, it’s because it’s paying under book value for companies it’s purchasing or because it’s not purchasing other companies.
