= ×


Common Equity (Market Value)

The common equity market value increased from 108,654 million USD in 2019 to a peak of 117,703 million USD in 2020, indicating a growth phase during that period. However, from 2020 onward, there was a consistent decline, falling to 101,999 million USD in 2021, then more sharply to 60,207 million USD in 2022, and further down to 46,357 million USD in 2023. This downward trend suggests deteriorating market valuation or investor confidence over the last three years.

Total Equity

Total equity showed similar trends to common equity. It rose from 116,020 million USD in 2019 to 124,179 million USD in 2020, indicating an increase in net assets or retained earnings. After 2020, total equity decreased substantially to 106,105 million USD in 2021, followed by a steep decline to 63,637 million USD in 2022 and further to 49,989 million USD in 2023. This suggests decreased shareholder value and/or asset write-downs over these years.

Total Equity and Debt

This aggregate measure, representing the total capital structure, showed an increase from 195,098 million USD in 2019 to 206,931 million USD in 2020. Subsequently, it declined gradually to 197,666 million USD in 2021 before a marked drop to 161,240 million USD in 2022 and further to 147,766 million USD in 2023. The declining trend from 2020 onward reflects a reduction in the company's combined financed capital, possibly through debt repayments, asset sales, or reduced borrowing capacity.

Enterprise Value (EV)

Enterprise value mirrored the behavior of total equity and debt, increasing from 191,615 million USD in 2019 to 205,933 million USD in 2020. Subsequently, EV decreased to 197,065 million USD in 2021 and further decreased significantly to 160,595 million USD in 2022, reaching 147,057 million USD in 2023. The consistent decline post-2020 indicates a reduction in firm valuation, reflecting lower market capitalization, reduced debt, or a combination of both.

Overall Trends

Across all financial metrics analyzed, there is a clear pattern of growth or stability through 2020, followed by a persistent and significant decline through 2023. The peak values in 2020 suggest a strong financial position during that year, whereas the subsequent downward trajectory points to challenges such as decreased market confidence, asset devaluations, or strategic shifts reducing overall capitalization and debt. The data indicates a contraction in the company's financial scale and valuation over the last three years.
