The analysis reveals significant growth in the market (fair) value over the examined periods, with the value increasing from approximately 43.47 billion USD in mid-2016 to 93.19 billion USD by mid-2021. This denotes a strong upward trajectory, reflecting positive investor perception and potential market confidence in the company's prospects.
Invested capital shows a relatively stable trend with minor fluctuations. Starting at around 7.92 billion USD in mid-2016, it slightly decreased over the next two years before increasing again, reaching approximately 10.15 billion USD by mid-2021. This indicates moderate growth in capital investment, suggesting controlled capital expenditures or reinvestment strategies.
The market value added (MVA) metric mirrors the upward trend of the market value, increasing from roughly 35.55 billion USD to 83.04 billion USD across the same period. Although the MVA experienced a decline in 2020, corresponding to a dip in market value, it rebounded strongly in 2021. This pattern underscores an overall enhancement in shareholder value, with temporary setbacks potentially linked to broader market or economic conditions.

The financial data reveals significant variations and overall growth patterns in market value added (MVA), invested capital, and MVA spread ratio over the analyzed period.
- Market Value Added (MVA)
- The market value added consistently increased from 35,546,487 thousand US dollars in mid-2016 to 65,925,332 thousand US dollars by mid-2019, indicating strong value creation during these years. This upward trajectory was interrupted in 2020, with a notable decline to 50,939,138 thousand US dollars, likely reflecting adverse conditions in that year. However, a robust recovery followed in 2021, with MVA reaching a peak of 83,035,278 thousand US dollars, the highest in the period studied.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital exhibited a more gradual and less volatile trend. It declined slightly from 7,921,908 thousand US dollars in 2016 to 7,289,794 thousand US dollars in 2018, suggesting possible efficiency improvements or divestments. A substantial increase occurred starting in 2019, with invested capital rising to 9,463,158 thousand US dollars, maintaining growth through 2021 to 10,152,600 thousand US dollars. This upward movement indicates increased asset base or reinvestment activities during the latter years.
- MVA Spread Ratio
- The MVA spread ratio, which measures value creation relative to invested capital, followed an upward trend from 448.71% in 2016 to a peak of 740.57% in 2018, reflecting heightened efficiency in generating market value from the capital invested. Despite a slight dip to 696.65% in 2019 and a more pronounced decrease to 531.71% in 2020, the ratio rebounded strongly to 817.87% in 2021, marking the highest efficiency level in the observed timeframe.
Overall, the data points to sustained value creation capability, with some volatility coinciding with the external environment around 2020. The increase in invested capital in recent years appears to support enhanced market value generation, as demonstrated by the rising MVA and improved MVA spread ratio. This pattern suggests effective capital allocation and resilience in the face of temporary setbacks.

The financial data reveals several noteworthy trends over the examined six-year period.
- Market Value Added (MVA)
- The Market Value Added shows an overall upward trajectory, increasing from approximately 35.5 billion US dollars in 2016 to roughly 83 billion US dollars in 2021. This indicates a strong growth in the company's value creation over time. Despite a decline in 2020, where the MVA decreased to about 50.9 billion US dollars from the previous year’s 65.9 billion, the following year showed a significant rebound, reaching the highest value in the series.
- Adjusted Revenues
- Adjusted Revenues demonstrated consistent growth across the period, increasing steadily from nearly 11.7 billion US dollars in 2016 to almost 15 billion US dollars in 2021. The growth rate, although steady, appears moderate compared to the fluctuations seen in Market Value Added, indicating revenue growth is stable but market valuation shows more dynamic changes.
- MVA Margin
- The MVA margin, expressed as a percentage, reflects the relationship between Market Value Added and Adjusted Revenues. Over the six years, the margin generally increased from 304.06% in 2016 to a peak of 553.99% in 2021. There was a noticeable dip in 2020 to 350.03% after a rising trend that peaked at 466.85% in 2019. This suggests that the company’s value creation relative to its revenues improved considerably by 2021 despite the temporary decline in 2020.
Overall, the data suggests solid long-term growth in market valuation and revenues, with enhanced efficiency or market perception reflected in the rising MVA margin, despite short-term volatility around 2020, possibly linked to external macroeconomic factors.
