Net Income Trend
Net income shows a generally strong upward trend over the period analyzed, starting from 1,335 million USD in 2005 and reaching a peak of 99,803 million USD in 2022. Notable growth occurred especially between 2009 and 2012, with net income increasing from 5,704 million USD to 41,733 million USD. After a slight decline in 2013 and 2016, there was a substantial increase from 2020 to 2022. However, the most recent years indicate a mild decrease, with net income falling to 93,736 million USD in 2024.
Net Sales Trend
Net sales have shown a consistent upward trajectory, beginning at 13,931 million USD in 2005 and rising to 391,035 million USD in 2024. The most significant increases took place between 2009 and 2012, where net sales escalated from 36,537 million USD to 156,508 million USD. After some fluctuations around 2015 and 2016, sales steadily increased again, peaking in 2022 at 394,328 million USD. Despite a slight dip in 2023, net sales rose again by 2024, indicating resilience in revenue generation.
Net Profit Margin Analysis
The net profit margin exhibited a positive trend overall, beginning at 9.58% in 2005 and rising to a high of approximately 26.67% in 2012. After this peak, the margin experienced a moderate decline, stabilizing between 21% and 23% for much of the subsequent years. Notably, the margin increased again to around 25.88% in 2021 before slightly decreasing to 23.97% in 2024. This suggests effective cost control and profitability management, despite some fluctuations.
Summary of Financial Performance
The company demonstrated strong growth in both net income and net sales over the analyzed years, with net income growing at a faster pace relative to sales, contributing to improving profit margins for most of the period. The fluctuations observed in profit margin and net income around 2013-2016 could indicate periods of strategic investment or market challenges, but overall profitability has been maintained at robust levels. The slight decline in recent years may warrant attention to maintain momentum in earnings growth.
