The net profit margin exhibited considerable fluctuation over the period examined, though generally remained within a relatively defined range. Initial values demonstrated a strong profitability, followed by periods of decline and subsequent recovery. A clear upward trend is not consistently present, but the metric demonstrates an overall increase in recent years.
- Early Growth & Initial Volatility (2005-2009)
- From 2005 to 2009, the net profit margin began at 23.87% and peaked at 29.02% in 2006. A subsequent decline was observed in 2007 and 2008, reaching 19.39% in the latter year. The metric then recovered significantly in 2009, reaching 27.57%, indicating a strong rebound in profitability despite the economic climate.
- Period of Stability & Moderate Decline (2010-2016)
- The years 2010 through 2016 saw a period of relative stability, with the net profit margin fluctuating between approximately 21.58% and 29.01%. A noticeable decrease occurred in 2017, falling to 11.42%, representing the lowest value in the observed period. This suggests a significant impact on profitability during that year.
- Recent Improvement & Peak Performance (2018-2025)
- Following the dip in 2017, the net profit margin experienced a substantial recovery, reaching 22.46% in 2018. Continued growth was observed through 2025, culminating in a peak of 32.81%. This indicates a strengthening of profitability and efficient cost management in recent years. The increase from 2020 to 2025 is particularly noteworthy, with the margin nearly doubling.
- Overall Trend
- While volatility is apparent throughout the period, a general upward trend in net profit margin is discernible, particularly when considering the latter half of the observation window. The company demonstrated an ability to recover from periods of lower profitability and achieve increasingly higher margins in more recent years. The most recent values suggest a strong and improving financial performance.
