1 US$ in millions


The financial data reveals a significant improvement in net income attributable to shareholders over the examined period. Initially, from 2010 through 2015, net income was consistently negative, with losses peaking in 2011 and 2015 at -369 million and -271 million US dollars respectively. However, starting in 2016, there is a notable turnaround, with net income abruptly shifting to positive figures, reaching a substantial peak of 9,895 million US dollars in 2017. After this peak, net income showed some volatility but remained positive through 2023, with values ranging between 1,230 million and 5,055 million US dollars, indicating sustained profitability.

Total assets demonstrated considerable growth over the period. The asset base remained relatively stable from 2010 to 2013, fluctuating around 15,600 to 17,300 million US dollars. A steep increase is visible beginning in 2014, nearly doubling in 2015 to over 39,000 million. The most significant jump occurred between 2015 and 2016, with assets surpassing 149,000 million US dollars and then stabilizing around that level through 2023, suggesting major investments or acquisitions during this period that expanded the company’s asset base dramatically.

Return on assets (ROA) trends closely mirror the changes observed in net income. ROA was negative in the initial years, from -1.51% in 2010 to -0.69% in 2015, reflecting the overall losses. Starting in 2016, ROA shifts to positive territory with a marked increase to 2.36%, peaking at 6.75% in 2017, corresponding with the sharp rise in net income. Subsequent years show a decline from the 2017 high but maintain positive ROA levels above 0.8%, indicating improved asset utilization and operational efficiency despite some fluctuations.

Summary of Key Trends
The transition from consistent losses to sustained profitability beginning in 2016 represents a pivotal change in financial performance.
Total assets exhibit rapid expansion primarily between 2014 and 2016, suggesting significant strategic initiatives that increased the asset base substantially.
The correlation between ROA improvements and increasing net income after 2015 highlights enhanced efficiency in asset usage and overall financial health.
From 2017 onwards, net income and ROA show variability but remain positive, reflecting a stable though variable profit environment.
