3 2022 Calculation
Common equity (market value) = Share price × No. shares of common stock outstanding
= 31.67 × 2,062,605,434


The financial trajectory from 2018 to 2022 is characterized by a period of sustained expansion in valuation and capital structure through 2021, followed by a notable contraction in 2022.

Market Value of Common Equity
Common equity experienced consistent year-over-year growth from 2018 through 2021, rising from 55,544 million US$ to a peak of 77,142 million US$. This represents a total increase of approximately 39% over the four-year growth period. However, a reversal occurred in 2022, with the market value decreasing to 65,323 million US$, reflecting a decline of approximately 15.3% from the previous year's high.
Enterprise Value (EV)
The enterprise value followed a similar growth pattern, escalating from 69,207 million US$ in 2018 to 91,202 million US$ by the end of 2021. This upward trend indicates a steady increase in the total perceived value of the business operations. In 2022, the enterprise value corrected to 81,293 million US$, aligning with the downward movement observed in equity market valuations.
Capital Structure and Debt Integration
Total equity and debt values closely mirrored the movements of the enterprise value, peaking at 93,518 million US$ in 2021 before falling to 83,380 million US$ in 2022. The minimal variance between total equity and the market value of common equity suggests that common stock is the primary component of the equity base. Furthermore, the consistent gap between total equity and debt versus the total enterprise value indicates that cash and cash equivalents remained a significant factor in the EV calculation throughout the period.
