1 US$ in millions


Long-term debt, including current maturities, net
The long-term debt exhibited significant fluctuations over the four-year period. From 2021 to 2022, there was a notable increase from 2,278 million US dollars to 3,093 million US dollars, indicating a 35.9% rise. However, in 2023, the debt decreased substantially to 2,028 million US dollars, representing a reduction of approximately 34.5% compared to the previous year. In contrast, 2024 saw a marked increase in long-term debt to 5,680 million US dollars, more than doubling the amount from 2023. This suggests a possible strategic decision to increase leverage or finance expansion during the last reported year.
Stockholders’ equity
Stockholders’ equity demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory throughout the period. Beginning at 5,671 million US dollars in 2021, equity rose sharply to 9,124 million US dollars in 2022, an increase of approximately 60.9%. This upward trend continued in 2023 with equity reaching 10,729 million US dollars, representing a growth of around 17.6% from the prior year. The most pronounced increase occurred in 2024, with equity rising to 17,565 million US dollars, a substantial 63.7% increase over 2023. The steady growth in equity indicates strengthening financial stability and retained earnings accumulation.
Debt to equity ratio
The debt to equity ratio showed a general decline from 0.40 in 2021 to 0.19 in 2023, reflecting a reduction in relative leverage and an improvement in capital structure efficiency. This downward trend suggests enhanced solvency and a decreased reliance on debt financing relative to equity during this period. However, in 2024, the ratio increased to 0.32, indicating a moderate rise in leverage in relation to the expansion in equity. Despite this increase, the ratio remained below the initial 2021 level, suggesting that the company maintains a more conservative capital structure relative to the beginning of the period.
