Sales to external customers
The sales to external customers in the Singapore geographic area exhibit a consistent upward trend over the analyzed periods. Starting at $1,096 million in 2020, sales increased to $1,389 million in 2021, showing moderate growth. Sales in 2022 remained relatively flat at $1,380 million, indicating a slight contraction compared to the previous year. However, a significant recovery and expansion occurred in 2023, with sales rising sharply to $2,231 million. This growth accelerated further in 2024, reaching $3,614 million, reflecting a strong positive trajectory in revenue generation from this geographic region.
Property and equipment, net
The net value of property and equipment in Singapore reveals an initial stable and low level from 2020 to 2021, increasing modestly from $32 million to $35 million. Thereafter, a notable escalation occurred in 2022 to $132 million, nearly quadrupling the previous year's value. This heightened investment in property and equipment was maintained with a slight increase to $144 million in 2023, followed by a marginal decrease to $140 million in 2024. The sharp increase starting in 2022 suggests a strategic expansion or upgrading of physical assets in the area.
Area asset turnover
The area asset turnover ratio, representing sales generated per unit of property and equipment, displays a declining trend from 2020 through 2022. It began at a high level of 34.25 in 2020, rising to a peak of 39.69 in 2021, indicating highly efficient utilization of assets. However, this ratio fell sharply in 2022 to 10.45, suggesting a significant reduction in asset efficiency, possibly due to the large increase in property and equipment during that year without a proportional increase in sales. Although some recovery is observed in 2023 and 2024, with ratios rising to 15.49 and 25.81 respectively, the asset turnover remains below the high efficiency levels of 2020 and 2021, indicating ongoing room for improved asset utilization.

The data for the "Other countries" geographic area reveals significant fluctuations across multiple financial metrics over the five-year period examined.

Sales to External Customers
Sales demonstrated a strong upward trajectory initially, rising sharply from $4,044 million in 2020 to a peak of $9,195 million in 2023. However, this was followed by a notable decline in 2024, falling to $7,247 million. The initial growth phase indicates increasing market penetration or demand in this geographic area, while the downturn in the final year could reflect market saturation, competitive pressures, or broader economic factors impacting sales.
Property and Equipment, Net
The net value of property and equipment showed a consistent increase over the period, starting at $154 million in 2020 and reaching $312 million by 2024. This steady investment in assets suggests a strategic effort to enhance infrastructure or capacity in the region, possibly to support expanding operations or technological upgrades in line with the sales growth observed in earlier years.
Area Asset Turnover
The area asset turnover ratio, which measures sales generated per unit of net property and equipment, exhibited considerable variability. It peaked sharply at 43.1 in 2021, indicating highly efficient use of assets that year. Subsequently, the ratio declined in the following years, from 37.83 in 2022 to 35.37 in 2023, and dropped substantially to 23.23 in 2024. This downward trend suggests a decreasing efficiency in utilizing assets to generate sales, particularly in the most recent year, possibly due to increased asset base outpacing sales growth or operational inefficiencies.

Overall, the analysis reveals an initial phase of robust sales growth accompanied by steady asset accumulation and high asset turnover efficiency. In the later years, sales experienced a decline while asset growth continued, leading to reduced asset turnover. This pattern points to potential challenges in maintaining sales momentum and optimizing asset utilization in the "Other countries" segment.
