Revenue Composition
The proportion of product revenues to total revenues exhibited a rising trend from 74.25% in 2019 to a peak of 79.83% in 2023, before declining to 76.26% in 2024. Conversely, service revenues decreased steadily from 25.75% in 2019 to 20.17% in 2023, with a moderate rebound to 23.74% in 2024. This suggests a cyclical shift favoring products over services during the period, with a slight recovery in services in the final year.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin
Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues remained relatively stable, fluctuating mildly around the 40% level, with the lowest point at 39.00% in 2022 and minor increases in other years. Consequently, the gross margin mirrored this trend, improving from 59.08% in 2019 to a peak of 61.00% in 2022, before slightly declining to 59.97% in 2024. The stability in cost control contributed to maintaining gross margin levels near 60%.
Operating Expenses
Research and development expenses as a percentage of revenues showed a consistent decline from 15.56% in 2019 to a low of 12.00% in 2022, indicating improved cost efficiency or strategic allocation, before increasing slightly to 13.03% in 2024. Selling, general and administrative expenses followed a similar downward trajectory, from 13.11% in 2019 to 9.34% in 2022, with a marginal uptick to 9.88% in 2024, demonstrating enhanced operational leverage over time.
Impairment Charges
Significant impairments of goodwill and intangible assets materialized in 2020 and 2024, registering -4.42% and -2.95% respectively as percentages of revenues. These non-recurring charges negatively impacted profitability in those years and highlight periodic asset write-downs affecting financial performance.
Income from Operations
Operating income showed notable volatility across the period. Starting at 30.41% of revenues in 2019, it declined to 25.87% in 2020, rebounded sharply to a peak of 39.67% in 2022, then moderated to 34.10% in 2024. The fluctuations partially reflect the influence of impairment charges and the changing cost structures described above.
Net Interest and Other Income/Expenses
Interest expense as a percentage of revenues generally decreased from 2.73% in 2019 to 1.74% in 2022, before increasing to 3.17% in 2024, indicating varying debt costs or financing structure changes. Interest income remained low but increased notably in 2024 to 1.64%. Foreign exchange impacts and gains or losses on investment sales were minimal and volatile without a clear trend. Other income was relatively insignificant, except for increases in 2023 and 2024, which contributed positively to the bottom line.
Income Before Taxes and Net Income
Income before income taxes followed the general pattern of operating income, decreasing to 22.68% in 2020, increasing to 37.88% in 2022, and declining thereafter to 32.51% in 2024. Provision for income taxes fluctuated inconsistently, with rates between -1.75% and -4.36%, influencing net earnings. Net income attributable to the company experienced an initial decline from 25.73% in 2019 to 20.96% in 2020, then increased substantially to 36.06% in 2022, before decreasing to 28.15% in 2024, indicating earnings volatility influenced by operational performance and tax provisions.
