3 2023 Calculation
Common equity (market value) = Share price × No. shares of common stock outstanding
= 14.79 × 654,756,816


The financial trajectory from 2019 to 2023 reveals a significant shift in the capital structure and overall valuation of the entity. A general trend of declining market equity is juxtaposed against a substantial increase and subsequent partial reduction in total debt and equity obligations.

Market Equity Trends
A consistent downward trend is observed in the market value of common equity, which decreased from 12,070 million US$ in 2019 to 9,684 million US$ by the end of 2023. This represents a steady erosion of shareholder value over the five-year period, with the most notable declines occurring between 2021 and 2023.
Total Capitalization and Debt Dynamics
Total equity and debt experienced a sharp increase during the first half of the observed period, rising from 36,385 million US$ in 2019 to a peak of 49,375 million US$ in 2021. Following this peak, a gradual deleveraging process is evident, as the total figure declined to 42,586 million US$ by December 31, 2023. The divergence between the falling equity and the rising total capitalization between 2019 and 2021 indicates a substantial increase in debt levels during that window.
Enterprise Value (EV) Analysis
Enterprise value exhibited an initial increase, rising from 32,401 million US$ in 2019 to 36,628 million US$ in 2020. While the market value of equity declined, the EV remained elevated due to the expanded debt load. From 2021 onwards, the EV entered a period of gradual contraction, ending at 34,098 million US$ in 2023. This movement suggests that the reduction in total debt and the continued decline in equity market value have collectively exerted downward pressure on the total enterprise valuation since 2020.
