= 100 × ÷ =
- Operating Income (Loss)
- The operating income for the period indicates a positive and increasing trend starting from the year ending December 30, 2023, with a value of 8,207 million US dollars. This figure rose to 9,513 million US dollars the following year and further increased to 10,920 million US dollars by the year ending December 28, 2024. This consistent growth suggests improving operational efficiency and profitability within the segment over the observed period.
- Net Revenue
- Net revenue experienced a decline from 31,773 million US dollars in the year ending December 30, 2023, to 29,258 million US dollars in the year ending December 28, 2024. However, there was a subsequent slight recovery, with net revenue increasing to 30,290 million US dollars by the end of the final period observed. Despite this partial rebound, the trend shows some volatility and a below-peak revenue level relative to the initial figure within the timeframe.
- Segment Profit Margin
- The segment profit margin demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory throughout the periods analyzed. Starting at 25.83% in the year ending December 30, 2023, it increased to 32.51% the following year and further improved to 36.05% by the year ending December 28, 2024. This rising margin indicates enhanced profitability and better cost management, reflecting stronger earnings relative to the segment’s revenue despite fluctuations in net revenue.
- Summary
- The analyzed segment shows a clear pattern of increasing profitability, as evidenced by rising operating income and profit margins, even as net revenue dips initially before a modest recovery. The improvement in profit margins implies effective management of operating expenses and an ability to generate higher returns from the segment’s revenue base.

- Net Revenue
- Net revenue declined from $16,856 million in 2022 to $12,635 million in 2023, reflecting a considerable drop in sales or service income. The revenue stabilized somewhat in 2024, registering a slight increase to $12,817 million, but it remained markedly lower than the 2022 peak.
- Segment Profit Margin
- The profit margin decreased sharply from 24.91% in 2022 to 12.82% in 2023 and continued a gradual decline to 10.44% in 2024. This downward pressure on profitability margins suggests increasing cost challenges or pricing pressures within the segment, impacting overall margin performance.
Overall, the DCAI segment has experienced a notable contraction in both revenue and profitability across the examined timeframe, coupled with margin compression. These patterns may warrant further analysis into operational efficiencies, cost structures, market conditions, or competitive dynamics affecting this segment.

1 2024 Calculation
Segment profit margin = 100 × Operating income (loss) ÷ Net revenue
= 100 × ÷ =
- Operating Income (Loss)
- The operating income exhibited a consistently negative trend over the observed periods. Starting from an unreported value in the earlier years, the segment reported an operating loss of $5,169 million in 2022. This loss further increased to $6,955 million in 2023 and substantially widened to $13,408 million by 2024. The trend reveals a deteriorating profitability, indicating rising operational challenges or increased costs without corresponding revenue growth.
- Net Revenue
- Net revenue data was not reported until 2022, when it was recorded at $27,491 million. Following this peak, revenue declined to $18,910 million in 2023 and further to $17,543 million in 2024. This downward trend in revenue highlights a shrinking sales base or reduced demand within the segment during this period.
- Segment Profit Margin
- The segment profit margin corroborates the findings from the income and revenue data. Initially unreported, the margin stood at -18.8% in 2022, signifying losses relative to revenue. It sharply declined to -36.78% in 2023 and further deteriorated to -76.43% in 2024. This significant negative margin indicates escalating inefficiencies or cost pressures, with losses deepening disproportionately compared to revenue.
- Summary
- The segment exhibits a clear pattern of financial stress marked by increasing operating losses and shrinking revenue over the last three recorded years. While revenues decreased steadily after 2022, losses in operating income and profit margin accelerated, suggesting challenges in managing operational costs or market conditions. The steep decline in profit margin particularly signals critical profitability issues that may require strategic review.
