Two-Component Disaggregation of ROE
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-03-31).
The financial data across multiple quarters reveals notable patterns and shifts in key performance indicators, specifically Return on Assets (ROA), Financial Leverage, and Return on Equity (ROE).
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- The ROA demonstrates an initial upward trend starting from the first available data in March 31, 2020, with a value of 7.4%. Over time, ROA generally increased, reaching a peak around December 31, 2023, at 9.2%. However, after this peak, the trend shows a gradual decline, lowering to approximately 7.57% by March 31, 2025. This pattern suggests that while asset efficiency improved significantly through the middle of the observed period, challenges in maintaining this efficiency appeared in later quarters.
- Financial Leverage
- Financial Leverage exhibits an overall increasing trend throughout the period. Starting at 3.25 in March 31, 2020, the leverage ratio rose steadily with minor fluctuations, reaching above 4.3 by the end of the period in March 31, 2025. This continued increase indicates a growing reliance on debt relative to equity financing, which may enhance returns but also increase financial risk. Variations in between show some quarter-to-quarter adjustments but the general directional movement is upward.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- ROE data follows a somewhat volatile yet generally positive trajectory. From 27.23% in March 31, 2020, ROE climbed to a high of 35.68% in December 31, 2023. Following this peak, a decline occurred, with figures falling to around 32.59% by March 31, 2025. The fluctuations in ROE suggest changing profitability or efficiency in using shareholder equity, with the peak coinciding approximately with maximum ROA and a notable increase in financial leverage. This indicates that enhanced leverage may have contributed to higher equity returns initially, with diminishing effects later in the period.
In summary, the data points to a period of improving profitability and asset efficiency accompanied by increasing financial leverage until late 2023. Post-peak, a reduction in ROA and ROE suggests some challenges in sustaining these improved returns despite continuing to increase leverage, which may indicate rising costs or risks associated with this financial strategy.
Three-Component Disaggregation of ROE
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-03-31).
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin shows a generally stable pattern with slight fluctuations over the observed periods. Starting at 14.64% in March 2021, it experienced minor declines and increases, peaking near 16.11% in the first quarter of 2022. Following this peak, the margin trended slightly downward, with values mainly oscillating between approximately 14.5% and 15.5%. The margin at the end of the period measured 14.51%, indicating a marginal overall decline compared to the initial recorded value.
- Asset Turnover
- Asset turnover exhibited a progressive improvement from 0.51 in March 2021 to a peak of about 0.60 in early 2023, indicating enhanced efficiency in asset utilization during that period. Post this peak, a gradual decline occurred, with the ratio dropping back to around the initial level (0.52) by March 2025. This pattern suggests cyclical operational changes affecting how effectively assets are used to generate revenue.
- Financial Leverage
- Financial leverage generally increased over the analyzed periods. Beginning at 3.25 in the earliest available data (March 2020), it maintained a moderate level around 3.5 through 2021, before rising steadily to reach over 4.3 by March 2025. This upward trend indicates a growing reliance on debt or other liabilities to finance the company’s assets, which may impact risk and return profiles.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- Return on equity displayed strong performance with some variability. From an initial value of 27.23% in March 2021, ROE dipped slightly in mid-2021 but then showed consistent growth, peaking at 35.68% in the first quarter of 2024. After this peak, a modest decline followed, settling near 32.59% by March 2025. The overall trend reveals increasing profitability relative to equity, supported by the patterns observed in profit margin, asset turnover, and financial leverage.
Five-Component Disaggregation of ROE
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-03-31).
The analysis of the quarterly financial ratios reveals several noteworthy patterns and trends over the observed periods.
- Tax Burden
- The tax burden ratio, available from the first quarter of 2021 onwards, remains relatively stable throughout the period, fluctuating slightly around 0.76 to 0.80. This stability suggests a consistent effective tax rate with minimal variation quarter to quarter.
- Interest Burden
- The interest burden shows a gradual but steady decline from 0.94 in early 2021 to 0.86 by the first quarter of 2025. This downward trend indicates a progressive reduction in the company's interest expenses relative to earnings before interest and taxes, signaling improved interest cost management or favorable debt conditions over time.
- EBIT Margin
- The EBIT margin exhibits resilience and moderate growth through the analyzed intervals. Starting from approximately 19.1% to mid-2021, the margin peaks above 21% multiple times thereafter, reaching as high as 21.92% in the third quarter of 2024. This upward trend reflects enhanced operational efficiency or strong pricing power over the years.
- Asset Turnover
- Asset turnover ratios show moderate fluctuations, beginning around 0.51 in early 2021, rising to a peak of approximately 0.60 during the late 2022 and early 2023 period, then declining to about 0.51 by the third quarter of 2024. This pattern suggests variable efficiency in generating sales from assets, with a period of improved turnover followed by a slight reduction in asset utilization effectiveness towards the end of the timeline.
- Financial Leverage
- The financial leverage ratio, monitored from the beginning of 2020, demonstrates a generally increasing trend, moving from 3.25 up to around 4.31 by the first quarter of 2025. This indicates a growing use of debt or equity amplification, which may enhance return but also introduces higher financial risk.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- ROE displays significant positive momentum through the quarters, rising from roughly 25.71% in the second quarter of 2021 to a peak of 35.68% in the fourth quarter of 2023. Although there is a slight decline in 2024, the levels remain robust, above 30%, highlighting strong profitability and effective management of equity capital.
In summary, the company has maintained strong profitability with increasing EBIT margins and ROE throughout the period despite declining interest burden and fluctuating asset turnover. The increasing financial leverage suggests a strategy of utilizing higher debt levels that, combined with operational improvements, has enhanced shareholder returns. The stable tax burden complements these trends, contributing to predictability in net earnings. However, the recent slight decline in asset turnover and ROE signals areas warranting ongoing monitoring to sustain performance levels.

The analysis of the financial ratios over the reported periods reveals distinct trends in profitability, efficiency in asset utilization, and overall return on assets.
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin shows a general upward trend from the first reported quarter in March 2021, starting at 14.64%, and peaking at approximately 16.11% in March 2022. After this peak, there is a moderate decline with fluctuations, settling around 14.51% by March 2025. The data suggests the company enhanced its profitability margin initially, but it faced some pressure or stabilization thereafter, maintaining a margin generally between 14% and 16% over the years.
- Asset Turnover
- The asset turnover ratio begins at 0.51 in March 2021, rising steadily to a high of 0.60 by June 2023, indicating improving efficiency in generating sales from assets during this period. Post-peak, a gradual decrease is observable, dropping back to 0.51 by March 2025. This pattern suggests that asset utilization efficiency improved significantly and then receded to initial levels, likely reflecting changes in operational scale or asset base management.
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- Return on assets follows a similar pattern to net profit margin and asset turnover, starting at 7.4% in March 2021 and increasing to a peak around 9.2% in March 2024. Following the peak, ROA declines steadily to about 7.57% by March 2025. This indicates that the company managed to enhance overall asset efficiency and profitability for an extended period before experiencing a reduction in effectiveness in generating returns from assets.
Overall, the data reflects a phase of improvement in profitability and asset usage between 2021 and early 2024, followed by a slight regression in these financial performance indicators toward early 2025. The cyclical nature of the asset turnover alongside profit margin fluctuations appears to drive the movements in return on assets, emphasizing the interconnectedness of operational efficiency and profit generation.

Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-03-31).
- Tax Burden
- The tax burden ratio remained consistently stable over the periods analyzed, fluctuating narrowly around 0.76 to 0.81. This indicates a steady proportion of earnings retained after taxes, without significant volatility or sudden changes.
- Interest Burden
- The interest burden ratio showed a gradual declining trend from approximately 0.94 down to 0.86 during the examined quarters. This suggests a slight increase in interest expenses relative to earnings before interest and taxes, which may indicate rising debt servicing costs or changes in the company’s financing structure over time.
- EBIT Margin
- The EBIT margin demonstrated an overall upward trend, starting near 19.1% and gradually increasing to above 21% in the latest periods. This reflects improving operating profitability, with the company managing to generate higher earnings from its operations relative to sales, despite some minor fluctuations.
- Asset Turnover
- The asset turnover ratio showed an initial improvement from approximately 0.51 to 0.60, indicating better utilization of assets in generating sales. However, in later periods, there was a gradual decline back toward 0.52. This pattern suggests that the efficiency in using assets to produce revenue improved initially but then slightly weakened toward the end of the timeframe.
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- The ROA exhibited a positive trend, increasing from about 7.28% to a peak of around 9.2%, followed by a moderate decline to near 7.57% by the latest reported quarter. This indicates that the company’s overall profitability in relation to its asset base improved significantly before experiencing a slight reduction, signaling some potential challenges in maintaining peak asset performance.
Disaggregation of Net Profit Margin
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-03-31).
Analysis of the financial ratios over the reported periods reveals several key trends and insights.
- Tax Burden
- The tax burden ratio, available from the first quarter of 2021 onward, remains relatively stable, fluctuating slightly around 0.76 to 0.80. This steadiness suggests consistent tax expenses relative to pre-tax earnings over the observed period, indicating no significant changes in tax structure or extraordinary tax events impacting profitability.
- Interest Burden
- The interest burden ratio exhibits a gradual decline over time, dropping from approximately 0.94 in early 2021 to 0.86 by the first quarter of 2025. This downward trend indicates increasing interest expenses relative to earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), potentially reflecting rising debt costs or higher leverage, which could exert pressure on net profitability if not offset by operational gains.
- EBIT Margin
- The EBIT margin demonstrates some variability but generally maintains a positive trajectory. Starting at around 19.26% in the first quarter of 2021, it rises with some fluctuations to reach a peak of approximately 21.92% in the third quarter of 2024 before slightly decreasing toward the end of the period. This pattern suggests improving operational efficiency or pricing power, amplifying earnings before interest and taxes notwithstanding some short-term fluctuations.
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin shows moderate volatility but trends upward initially, moving from around 14.64% in early 2021 to a peak near 16.11% in the first quarter of 2022. Subsequently, it experiences some decline and oscillations, settling between approximately 14.5% and 15.5% in later periods. The fluctuations may imply varying impacts from interest and tax expenses, and possibly other non-operating factors, influencing the translation of operating profitability into net earnings.
In summary, the operational profitability as reflected by the EBIT margin has generally improved over the reported quarters, while the interest burden has increased, putting some downward pressure on net margins. The tax burden remains steady, indicating consistent tax-related influences. The net profit margin reflects these combined effects, showing moderate fluctuation but no drastic deviations. Overall, the data suggests strengthening operational performance tempered by higher financing costs.
