Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
The net operating profit after taxes exhibited substantial fluctuations over the periods analyzed. Initially, there was a notable increase from approximately 180 million in 2017 to about 429 million in 2018, followed by a continued rise to nearly 696 million in 2019. In 2020, the NOPAT declined significantly to approximately 455 million but showed a slight recovery in 2021 to nearly 489 million. The most pronounced change occurred in 2022, with NOPAT surging dramatically to over 1.62 billion.
Invested Capital
Invested capital demonstrated a downward trend after 2017. Starting at about 6.1 billion in 2017, it decreased to approximately 5.1 billion in 2018, then sharply increased to around 14.7 billion in 2019. Following this peak, there was a gradual decline each year, falling to roughly 13.7 billion in 2020, 12.6 billion in 2021, and 11.9 billion in 2022.
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
ROIC presented considerable variability throughout the timeframe. Beginning at a low of approximately 2.97% in 2017, it improved significantly to 8.33% in 2018, then declined to 4.73% in 2019 and further to 3.32% in 2020. A slight rebound to 3.87% was observed in 2021, followed by a substantial increase to 13.54% in 2022, representing the highest return in the period analyzed.
Summary of Trends and Insights
The data reveals a pattern of volatility, particularly in profitability and capital efficiency metrics. The dramatic increase in NOPAT in 2022, combined with a decreasing trend in invested capital, contributed to a significant improvement in ROIC, indicating enhanced capital productivity in the most recent period. The earlier rise and fall in both NOPAT and invested capital suggest periods of expansion followed by optimization or divestment. The ROIC fluctuations underscore challenges in consistently generating returns from invested capital, with notable efficiency gains apparent only in the latest year.

Operating Profit Margin (OPM)
The operating profit margin experienced significant variability over the analyzed periods. It began at 8.19% in 2017, saw a marked increase to 23.14% in 2018, before declining to lower values around 12-13% in 2019 through 2021. In 2022, the margin surged again to 26.87%, indicating improved operational efficiency or profitability in the latest year.
Turnover of Capital (TO)
Capital turnover exhibited fluctuations without a clear linear trend. Starting at 0.56 in 2017, it increased to 0.77 in 2018, then dropped significantly to 0.36 and 0.38 in 2019 and 2020, respectively. Minor recovery occurred in the subsequent years, reaching 0.43 in 2021 and 0.58 in 2022. This suggests variability in how effectively the company utilized its capital over time.
1 – Effective Cash Tax Rate (CTR)
This metric showed considerable oscillations, reflecting changes in effective tax management or taxable income. The value was 64.73% in 2017, decreased to 46.54% in 2018, then sharply increased to 97.53% in 2019. It decreased again to around 70% in both 2020 and 2021 and rose to 86.89% in 2022. These shifts suggest fluctuating tax burdens or effective tax planning strategies.
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
ROIC followed a pattern somewhat similar to OPM, beginning at a low 2.97% in 2017, improving to 8.33% in 2018, then declining between 2019 and 2021 to values ranging from 3.32% to 3.87%. In 2022, ROIC increased significantly to 13.54%, indicating improved returns on the company's invested capital most recently.

Net Operating Profit Before Taxes (NOPBT)
The net operating profit before taxes demonstrates significant fluctuations over the observed period. Starting at approximately 279 million in 2017, it experiences a sharp increase to over 921 million in 2018. This is followed by a decline in the subsequent two years, with values around 713 million in 2019 and 631 million in 2020. The profit then slightly recovers to 694 million in 2021 before reaching the highest value in the period at about 1.86 billion in 2022. This pattern indicates episodic growth with notable cyclical dips.
Adjusted Net Sales
Adjusted net sales reveal a consistent upward trend across the six-year span. Beginning with roughly 3.41 billion in 2017, sales increase progressively each year, reaching about 6.94 billion in 2022. Despite minor stagnation from 2019 to 2020, the overall trajectory points to steady expansion in sales revenue.
Operating Profit Margin (OPM)
The operating profit margin displays pronounced volatility. Initial margins begin modestly at 8.19% in 2017 and surge dramatically to over 23% in 2018. This is followed by a substantial decline over the next two years, with margins dropping to approximately 13.34% in 2019 and 11.96% in 2020. A moderate recovery occurs in 2021, increasing to 12.76%, before a sharp rise to the highest identified margin of 26.87% in 2022. This trend suggests fluctuating operational efficiency with improved profitability in recent periods.
Overall Interpretation
The data reveals a company experiencing growth in sales accompanied by volatile profitability metrics. The notable spikes in net operating profit and operating margin in 2018 and again in 2022 could indicate periods of enhanced operational performance, cost control, or favorable market conditions. Meanwhile, the dips in 2019 and 2020 suggest temporary challenges or increased expenses. The upward trend in adjusted net sales alongside the improving profitability margins in the latter years points to strengthened financial health and operational efficiency in the most recent periods.

The financial data reveals notable fluctuations across several key metrics over the observed periods.

Adjusted Net Sales
There is a generally increasing trend in adjusted net sales over the years. Sales rose from approximately 3.41 billion USD in 2017 to around 6.94 billion USD in 2022. The growth was relatively steady, with a significant jump between 2018 and 2019 followed by a slight dip in 2020. The upward movement resumed in 2021 and continued into 2022, indicating a strong overall expansion in revenue generation.
Invested Capital
Invested capital showed considerable volatility during the period. Starting at about 6.09 billion USD in 2017, it decreased to roughly 5.15 billion USD in 2018, then experienced a sharp increase to approximately 14.72 billion USD in 2019. Following this peak, there was a consistent decline each year, settling around 11.96 billion USD by 2022. This pattern suggests changes in asset allocation or investment strategy, with a significant contraction after 2019.
Turnover of Capital (TO)
The turnover of capital ratio displays variability aligned with the changes in invested capital and sales. It increased from 0.56 in 2017 to 0.77 in 2018, reflecting improved efficiency in using capital to generate sales during that period. However, it dropped sharply to 0.36 in 2019 and remained relatively low in 2020 at 0.38. Gradual improvement occurred thereafter, increasing to 0.43 in 2021 and 0.58 in 2022, suggesting a recovering efficiency after a period of lower capital turnover.

In summary, adjusted net sales demonstrated robust growth, whereas invested capital experienced significant fluctuations and a downward revision after a peak in 2019. The turnover of capital echoed these changes, showing efficiency gains followed by a decline and subsequent recovery. The dynamics between sales growth and the management of invested capital imply shifting operational or investment priorities over the examined timeframe.

Cash Operating Taxes
The cash operating taxes exhibit notable volatility across the periods. Starting at approximately 98.4 million USD in 2017, there is a significant spike in 2018 reaching about 492.5 million USD, followed by a sharp decline to roughly 17.6 million USD in 2019. Subsequently, the taxes increase steadily in 2020 through 2022, rising from 175.3 million USD to 244.4 million USD by 2022. This pattern indicates fluctuations likely influenced by changes in taxable income or tax policies, with a pronounced peak in 2018 and a recovery trend in recent years.
Net Operating Profit Before Taxes (NOPBT)
The net operating profit before taxes shows overall growth from 2017 to 2022, though with varying rates. Beginning at 279.0 million USD in 2017, it surges dramatically to over 921.3 million USD in 2018, then declines to 713.4 million USD in 2019 and further to 630.7 million USD in 2020. From 2021 onwards, a strong recovery is evident, with NOPBT rising to 694.0 million USD in 2021 and peaking at approximately 1.86 billion USD in 2022. This upward trajectory in recent years suggests improving operational profitability or favorable market conditions.
Effective Cash Tax Rate (CTR)
The effective cash tax rate displays significant fluctuations over the observed periods. It starts at 35.27% in 2017, climbs to a high of 53.46% in 2018, before plunging to a minimal 2.47% in 2019. Subsequently, it stabilizes somewhat, varying between 27.79% and 29.56% in 2020 and 2021 respectively, before decreasing to 13.11% in 2022. These changes suggest variability in tax strategies, tax incentives, or adjustments between accounting profits and taxable income, with a particularly low rate in 2019 and a notable reduction in 2022.
Overall Insights
The financial data reflect notable volatility in taxation and profitability over the six-year span. The substantial NOPBT growth, especially the sharp increase in 2022, contrasts with fluctuating tax expenses and effective tax rates, which may point to strategic tax planning or regulatory impacts. The lower effective tax rates in 2019 and 2022 coincide with relatively lower cash tax outflows, indicating potential tax efficiencies or changes in taxation environment. Continuous monitoring of these trends is important to understand the sustainability of profitability and tax obligations.
