It increased substantially from 9.64% in 2021 to a peak of 51.96% in 2023, indicating improved operational efficiency and profitability.

It then slightly recovered to 40% in 2023 before dropping to a negative figure of -16.76% in 2024. This trend suggests fluctuating overall profitability, with a critical downturn into losses by the latest year.
- Return on Equity (ROE)

- Income (loss) from operations
- The income from operations showed a significant increase from 704 million USD in 2021 to 3,780 million USD in 2022, indicating strong operational performance during this period. However, in 2023, it decreased to 3,142 million USD and turned into a loss of 803 million USD in 2024, representing a deteriorating operational profitability in the most recent year.
- Revenues
- Revenues nearly doubled from 7,301 million USD in 2021 to 14,123 million USD in 2022, signifying substantial sales growth. This was followed by a sharp decline to 6,047 million USD in 2023 and a further reduction to 4,259 million USD in 2024, reflecting a notable downward trend in revenue generation across the last two years.
- Operating profit margin
- The operating profit margin marked an upward trajectory from 9.64% in 2021 to 26.76% in 2022, and then dramatically increased to 51.96% in 2023, highlighting enhanced efficiency in converting revenues into operating profit. Nonetheless, this positive trend reversed drastically in 2024, with the margin falling to negative 18.85%, indicating an operating loss relative to revenues in that year.
- Overall Analysis
- The data reveals a strong performance peak in 2022 characterized by high revenue growth and improved profit margins. However, subsequent years show a decline in revenues and operating income, culminating in a notable operating loss in 2024. This shift suggests emerging challenges in sustaining profitability and revenue levels, potentially related to market conditions, cost management, or operational factors affecting financial health.
