Between 2019 and 2023, the financial metrics indicate a period of significant volatility in market value creation, characterized by a sharp peak in 2021 followed by a correction and subsequent stabilization.

Market Value Added (MVA)
MVA demonstrated a strong upward trend in the early part of the period, increasing from 7,336 million US$ in 2019 to a peak of 17,504 million US$ in 2021. This growth was followed by a notable decline to 12,106 million US$ in 2022, before recovering slightly to 12,785 million US$ by the end of 2023.
Invested Capital
A general reduction in invested capital was observed from 2019 to 2021, falling from 35,495 million US$ to 29,074 million US$. Following this decline, the capital base stabilized, recording 30,859 million US$ in 2022 and 30,476 million US$ in 2023.
MVA Spread Ratio
The MVA spread ratio experienced a dramatic expansion, rising from 20.67% in 2019 to a peak of 60.20% in 2021. This suggests a substantial increase in the market's valuation of the company relative to the capital invested. A sharp contraction occurred in 2022, with the ratio dropping to 39.23%, and it remained relatively stable at 41.95% in 2023.

The correlation between the decreasing invested capital and the increasing MVA through 2021 contributed to the rapid acceleration of the MVA spread ratio. The subsequent stabilization of both invested capital and MVA from 2022 to 2023 has resulted in a spread ratio that has settled significantly higher than the 2019 baseline.

The financial trajectory between 2019 and 2023 reveals a complex relationship between market value creation and operational recovery. While absolute market value added experienced growth during the initial period of operational instability, the efficiency of this value relative to revenue shifted significantly as operations normalized.

Market Value Added (MVA)
An upward trajectory is observed from 2019 to 2021, with MVA increasing from 7,336 million US$ to a peak of 17,504 million US$. A subsequent contraction occurred in 2022, where the value declined to 12,106 million US$, followed by a marginal recovery to 12,785 million US$ by the end of 2023.
Operating Revenues
Operating revenues exhibited a severe contraction in 2020, falling to 17,337 million US$ from 45,768 million US$ in 2019. A consistent recovery period followed, with revenues climbing to 29,882 million US$ in 2021 and surpassing 2019 levels by 2022 and 2023, ultimately reaching 52,788 million US$.
MVA Margin
The MVA margin showed extreme volatility, peaking at 74.61% in 2020. This surge was mathematically driven by the precipitous decline in operating revenues occurring simultaneously with an increase in MVA. As revenues recovered, the margin underwent a steady normalization, decreasing to 58.58% in 2021 and stabilizing at 24.72% in 2022 and 24.22% in 2023.
