- Net Revenues
- Net revenues demonstrated a general upward trend from 2008 through 2021, increasing from $3,026 million in 2008 to a peak of $8,803 million in 2021. Notable growth periods include a significant jump between 2015 and 2016 and continued growth through to 2021. However, in 2022, net revenues declined sharply to $7,528 million, reversing the previous growth momentum.
- Operating Income (Loss)
- Operating income showed substantial improvement over the period, beginning with a loss of $233 million in 2008 and turning positive by 2010 with $469 million. It peaked at $3,259 million in 2021, reflecting strong operational performance. Despite year-to-year fluctuations, operating income maintained positive values from 2010 onward. In 2022, operating income contracted to $1,670 million, indicating a significant reduction from the prior year’s peak.
- Net Income (Loss)
- Net income followed a largely positive trajectory starting from a loss of $107 million in 2008, turning positive in 2009 at $113 million and steadily increasing to a high of $2,699 million in 2021. There were some variances, for example, the net income declined sharply to $273 million in 2017 after a peak of $966 million in 2016, before rising again in subsequent years. In 2022, net income dropped to $1,513 million, reflecting a decrease relative to the preceding years but remaining substantially positive.
- Overall Financial Trends
- The data indicates a company that transitioned from losses in both operating income and net income in the late 2000s to sustained profitability from 2010 through 2021. Growth in net revenues supported increased profitability, with operating efficiency and income generation improving over the period. The year 2022 marks a notable reversal, with declines in net revenues, operating income, and net income, suggesting challenges or shifts impacting financial performance after a period of consistent growth.

The financial data over the period from 2008 to 2022 reveals several notable trends in the asset structure, particularly regarding current assets and total assets.
- Current Assets
- The value of current assets remained relatively stable from 2008 through 2014, fluctuating slightly around the range of approximately 5,300 to 7,000 million US dollars. A significant decline occurred in 2015, when current assets dropped sharply to approximately 3,387 million US dollars. However, following this downturn, a strong recovery trend is observed from 2016 onward, with current assets increasing steadily each year, reaching a high of approximately 14,469 million US dollars by the end of 2022. This upward movement after 2015 suggests a strategic improvement in liquidity or short-term asset management over the recent years.
- Total Assets
- Total assets exhibit a generally upward trend over the 15-year period. Starting at 14,701 million US dollars in 2008, the total assets saw a modest decline reaching a low point around 13,277 million US dollars in 2011, followed by a gradual recovery and growth phase. From 2012 onwards, total assets increased consistently, with more marked growth observed from 2015 forward. By the end of 2022, total assets had reached approximately 27,383 million US dollars, almost doubling in value compared to the initial year in the data set. This indicates overall asset base expansion, likely driven by investments, acquisitions, or organic growth of the company's asset holdings.
The comparison between current assets and total assets over these years highlights a period of short-term liquidity contraction around 2015, followed by a sustained improvement. Concurrently, the overall asset growth suggests an expanding asset structure, reinforcing an enhanced capacity to support business activities and potential growth initiatives.

The financial data over the period analyzed reveals several key trends in the company’s liabilities and equity structure.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities displayed fluctuations throughout the years. Starting at $2,320 million in 2008, they generally remained within a range around the mid-$2,000 million level until 2016, when a notable increase to $3,663 million occurred. After a decrease to $2,411 million in 2021, current liabilities increased again to $3,555 million by 2022. This pattern indicates variability likely influenced by operational or short-term financing activities.
- Total Liabilities
- Total liabilities followed a fluctuating trend with some pronounced changes. From $3,174 million in 2008, liabilities decreased slightly until 2011, then surged significantly to reach as high as $7,390 million by 2013, before a gradual decline and another increase, ending at $8,140 million in 2022. The changes notably reflect potential debt restructuring or acquisitions impacting the balance sheet.
- Long-term Debt (net, including current portion)
- Long-term debt data is missing for the initial years but from 2014 onward shows a decreasing trend from $4,693 million in 2014 to $2,671 million in 2018, indicating repayment or refinancing efforts. From 2018 to 2022, long-term debt remains relatively stable around the $3,600 million mark, suggesting a period of maintained long-term leverage.
- Shareholders’ Equity
- Shareholders’ equity exhibited a declining trend from $11,527 million in 2008 to $6,622 million in 2013, suggesting potential losses, dividends, or share repurchases during this period. However, equity rebounded starting 2014, with consistent increases to $19,243 million by 2022. This upward trend reflects improved profitability, retained earnings, or capital contributions strengthening the company's financial position over recent years.
Overall, the data indicates that while there were periods of increased leverage and higher liabilities particularly around 2013, the company has managed to strengthen its equity base significantly since 2014. The stabilization and slight reduction of long-term debt also point to a strategic focus on managing financial risk and improving capital structure over the last several years.

- Operating Activities
- The net cash provided by operating activities shows a generally increasing trend over the period from 2008 to 2022, with some fluctuations. The value increased notably from $379 million in 2008 to a peak of $2,414 million in 2021, before slightly declining to $2,220 million in 2022. This upward trend indicates improving operational cash generation capabilities, reflecting potentially stronger revenue streams or efficient working capital management over time. However, some years, such as 2011 and 2015, saw a relative decrease compared to adjacent years, suggesting periodic operational challenges or increased operational expenditures.
- Investing Activities
- The cash flow from investing activities demonstrates significant volatility across the analyzed years. Early in the period, cash flows fluctuated between positive and negative values, with notable cash inflows of $1,101 million in 2008 followed by large outflows, including a sharp negative of $-3,716 million in 2015 and an extreme outflow of $-4,994 million in 2022. Such large cash outflows in recent years suggest substantial investments, possibly in acquisitions, capital expenditures, or other long-term assets. The inconsistency indicates a dynamic investment strategy with shifts in capital allocation priorities over time.
- Financing Activities
- Cash flows from financing activities reflect considerable instability and variability from positive inflows to significant outflows during the period. The company experienced strong positive cash flow in 2008 at $1,488 million but subsequently faced multiple years of negative cash flow, such as $-1,223 million in 2013 and $-2,020 million in 2018. The fluctuations in financing cash flows may correspond to periods of debt issuance or repayment, issuance or repurchase of equity, or dividend payments. The overall trend does not indicate a consistent pattern but rather fluctuates according to changing financing needs and strategies.

1, 2, 3 Data adjusted for splits and stock dividends.
The financial data for the company over the period from 2008 to 2022 reveals several notable trends in earnings per share (EPS) and dividends per share.
- Basic Earnings Per Share (EPS)
- The basic EPS showed a marked improvement overall, recovering from a negative value of -0.11 US$ in 2008 to positive figures starting in 2009. There was a consistent upward trend from 2009 to 2010 and continuing until 2013, with EPS increasing from 0.09 US$ to 0.96 US$. A slight increase was seen in 2014 and 2015, peaking at 1.30 US$ in 2016. However, 2017 experienced a steep decline to 0.36 US$, which may indicate a significant event impacting earnings. Following that, the EPS rebounded and increased steadily, reaching a peak of 3.47 US$ in 2021 before decreasing to 1.94 US$ in 2022. Overall, the trend suggests periods of growth interrupted by volatility.
- Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS)
- The diluted EPS follows a similar pattern to the basic EPS, with negative values initially and then improving consistently from 2009 onward. The values are slightly lower than basic EPS throughout, showing usual dilution effects. The trend mirrors the basic EPS in terms of growth phases, decline in 2017, recovery, peak in 2021 (3.44 US$), and a drop in 2022 (1.92 US$). This alignment confirms consistency in earnings quality and dilution impact over the period.
- Dividend Per Share
- Dividend per share data begins in 2010 with an initial value of 0.15 US$. Since then, dividends have increased steadily every year without interruption, rising from 0.15 US$ in 2010 to 0.47 US$ by 2021 and maintaining at 0.47 US$ in 2022. This steady increase suggests a focus on returning value to shareholders and possibly reflects confidence in sustainable earnings and cash flow generation.
In summary, the company experienced growth in earnings per share with some volatility, particularly noticeable in 2017 and 2022. The stability and consistent increase in dividend payments reflect a commitment to shareholder returns despite fluctuations in earnings. The peak earnings in 2021, followed by a decline in 2022, merit further investigation to understand underlying causes. Overall, the financial data suggests a generally positive long-term earnings trajectory accompanied by a stable dividend policy.
