The analysis of the financial data reveals several trends in profitability, equity, and return on equity (ROE) over the observed periods.
- Net Income
 - Net income generally showed an upward trend from 2005 through 2019, peaking notably at 1,714,300 thousand USD in 2018. However, a sharp decline occurred in 2019, resulting in a significant net loss of 1,590,800 thousand USD. Following this loss, the company recovered with positive net income figures in 2020, 2021, and 2022, stabilizing around 1,340,000 to 1,320,000 thousand USD.
 - Shareholders’ Equity
 - Shareholders’ equity exhibited fluctuations but an overall increasing trajectory across the period. Starting at approximately 1,164,212 thousand USD in 2005, equity grew with some volatility, reaching a notable peak beyond 7,700,000 thousand USD by 2022. A significant jump was observed between 2014 and 2016, where equity increased sharply from around 1,785,000 thousand USD to 4,406,900 thousand USD, suggesting substantial capital strengthening or retained earnings accumulation.
 - Return on Equity (ROE)
 - ROE displayed variability in alignment with net income trends. Starting at 15.48% in 2005, ROE generally increased, with peaks around 50.97% in 2013 and another high at 23.87% in 2018. The notable negative net income in 2019 corresponded with a negative ROE of -28.19%. Post-2019, ROE recovered to moderate levels between approximately 13% and 18%, indicating recovering profitability relative to equity.
 - Insight and Pattern Summary
 - The data reflects a company with growing equity base and overall improving profitability until 2018, interrupted by a severe net loss in 2019 that dramatically affected ROE. The recovery in subsequent years suggests resilience and effective management of financial performance post-2019 downturn. The sharp increase in equity around the mid-2010s potentially indicates strategic investments or capital actions that supported future earnings growth.
