The total asset turnover ratio exhibits two distinct operational phases between 2005 and 2021, characterized by a period of relative stability followed by a significant structural shift in the asset base.
- Operational Stability Period (2005–2018)
- During this interval, the total asset turnover ratio generally fluctuated between 0.49 and 0.73. A notable volatility occurred in 2007, where the ratio dropped to 0.33 corresponding with a sharp increase in total assets from 6,208 million to 11,846 million. Following this event, the ratio stabilized, maintaining a consistent range between 0.50 and 0.57 from 2009 through 2017. This suggests a proportional relationship between revenue growth and asset accumulation during this timeframe.
- Structural Asset Expansion (2019–2021)
- A fundamental change in the financial structure is observed in 2019, marked by a substantial increase in total assets from 11,262 million in 2018 to 77,539 million in 2019. Although revenue grew significantly from 5,823 million to 10,187 million in the same year, the growth in the asset base far outpaced revenue gains. This resulted in a sharp decline in the total asset turnover ratio to its lowest point of 0.13.
- Recent Efficiency Trends (2020–2021)
- Following the asset surge of 2019, a gradual recovery in asset utilization efficiency is evident. The total asset turnover ratio rose from 0.13 in 2019 to 0.20 in 2020 and further to 0.21 by 2021. This upward trend is driven by continued revenue expansion, reaching 16,226 million by December 31, 2021, while the total asset base remained relatively constant around 76,000 million.
