The net income attributable to the company exhibits variability over the analyzed period, with notable fluctuations and an overall upward trend in recent years. After reaching a peak above 500 million USD in 2007, the net income experienced a significant decline in 2009, registering a loss exceeding 500 million USD. Subsequent years saw a recovery, with income levels generally increasing and peaking at over 3.3 billion USD in 2022. The most recent years show a slight decline but maintain income above 2.7 billion USD, indicating sustained profitability at high levels.

Total assets demonstrate steady growth throughout the period, starting at approximately 4.0 billion USD in mid-2005 and rising consistently to reach over 15.4 billion USD by mid-2024. This indicates ongoing expansion of the company’s asset base, likely reflecting investments, acquisitions, or organic growth.

The return on assets (ROA) closely mirrors the net income trend relative to total assets, displaying volatility in the early years with a sharp negative dip in 2009 corresponding to the net loss. Following this, ROA adjusted upwards, stabilizing above 10% from 2010 onwards. From 2016, ROA values remain particularly strong, consistently exceeding 13%, and peaking at over 26% in 2022. Although there is a slight decline in the last recorded year, ROA remains robust at nearly 18%, underscoring effective asset utilization in generating profits.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to the Company
High volatility with a sizable loss in 2009 followed by sustained recovery and growth, reaching record highs around 2022.
Total Assets
Consistent and significant growth over the entire period, more than tripling from 2005 to 2024, reflecting steady company expansion.
Return on Assets (ROA)
Fluctuates in early years with a notable decline during the loss year but strengthens considerably post-2010, indicating improved profitability and asset efficiency, reaching peaks above 25% in recent years.

Overall, the financial data reflects a company that has successfully recovered from a substantial loss period and improved its profitability alongside significant asset growth. The enhanced ROA figures in recent years suggest an increasingly efficient use of assets to generate earnings.
