1 US$ in millions
The analysis of the financial data reveals several noteworthy trends over the examined period.
- Net Income (Loss)
- The net income demonstrates significant fluctuations. It reached a peak of 329 million US dollars in 2006, followed by a general decline until 2010, when it dropped sharply to 58 million US dollars. The subsequent years saw volatility with negative net income recorded for three consecutive years from 2015 to 2017, marking losses up to -582 million US dollars. Afterwards, net income recovered strongly, culminating in a substantial increase to 1,208 million US dollars in 2021. Although it decreased after this peak, the net income remained positive and increased again reaching 906 million US dollars in 2024.
- Total Assets
- Total assets exhibited a consistent upward trend throughout the period. Starting from 1,142 million US dollars in 2005, assets nearly doubled by 2014 to 4,914 million US dollars and further continued to rise, reaching 9,912 million US dollars by 2024. Despite some minor fluctuations around 2016 and 2018, the overall asset base demonstrated strong growth, indicating expansion and accumulation of resources over time.
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- ROA showed a parallel path to net income with noteworthy volatility. The ratio peaked early in the period at 24.17% in 2006, then declined steadily with some minor improvements until negative levels were reached from 2015 to 2017. The lowest ROA was -13.78% in 2018, reflecting the period of net losses. Following this, the ROA rebounded positively to 16.6% in 2021 but tapered slightly in subsequent years while remaining above 5%, showing better asset utilization and profitability in recent years.
In summary, the company underwent a challenging period roughly between 2014 and 2018, experiencing losses and negative returns on assets, accompanied by a temporary dip in asset base growth. Subsequent years exhibited marked recovery in profitability and asset efficiency, alongside continued expansion of total assets. The overall trend suggests a phase of restructuring or strategic shift during the loss-making years, followed by a period of regained financial health and operational effectiveness.
