The annual financial data demonstrates several notable trends in profitability and revenue generation over the analyzed period.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income exhibited significant volatility throughout the years. The company reported a net loss in 2008, followed by a substantial turnaround with positive net income starting in 2009. Income peaked variously in 2011 and 2021, with values exceeding one billion US dollars on several occasions. However, there were notable dips in net income in 2017 and in 2022, the latter showing a decrease from the previous peak in 2021. This fluctuation suggests variability in profitability drivers during these years.

Net Revenues

Revenue trends indicate a generally upward trajectory from 2008 through 2021, with some intermittent decreases. Early years showed steady growth from less than 3.1 billion US dollars in 2008 to peak revenues around 8.8 billion in 2021. In 2017, revenues reached a milestone exceeding 7 billion US dollars. However, there were declines noted in 2019 and more markedly in 2022, where revenues fell from their prior high. This suggests periods of both expansion and contraction in sales volumes or pricing power.

Net Profit Margin

The net profit margin reflected the profitability efficiency relative to revenues, showing significant improvements over the period. Starting with a negative margin in 2008, margins improved sharply by 2010, reaching over 20% in several years, including peaks around 30.66% in 2021. Despite a generally positive trend, some years like 2017 displayed a marked contraction to under 4%, indicating either increased costs or pricing pressures. The margin declined again in 2022 but remained positive, at approximately 20.1%.

Overall, the data illustrates a pattern of increasing profitability and revenue growth up to the early 2020s, followed by a softening in recent years. Significant earnings volatility points to changing market conditions or operational factors impacting net income and margins. The trend toward higher profit margins in the mature years suggests improved cost management or product mix, tempered by occasional declines possibly tied to external or internal challenges.
