1 US$ in millions

The financial data indicates significant fluctuations and growth trends over the analyzed period in key financial metrics including net income, revenue, and net profit margin.

Net Income (Loss)
Net income exhibited considerable variability in the earlier years, with losses recorded in 2009 and 2010 (-30 million and -68 million US$ respectively) following consistent net income growth from 100 million US$ in 2005 to 798 million US$ in 2008. Starting from 2011, the company returned to profitability and showed a robust growth trajectory, hitting 16,666 million US$ in 2017 and surging dramatically to 72,880 million US$ by 2025. This overall pattern demonstrates increasing profitability with some volatility early in the timeline, and a marked acceleration in net income in recent years.
Revenue
Revenue increased steadily from 2,010 million US$ in 2005 to 4,098 million US$ in 2008, followed by a slight dip in 2009 and 2010 years. From 2011 onward, revenue growth resumed strongly, with occasional modest fluctuations but a clear upward trend overall. The revenue figures doubled from approximately 10,918 million US$ in 2020 to 26,974 million US$ in 2023, and then nearly doubled again to reach 130,497 million US$ in 2025. These figures indicate consistent expansion of the company's sales base and successful scaling of its business operations over time.
Net Profit Margin
The net profit margin mirrored the net income trend with early years showing volatile and occasionally negative values (-0.88% in 2009 and -2.04% in 2010). Following the return to positive net profit margins in 2011, the margin steadily improved, reaching a peak of 35.34% in 2019. After some fluctuations, the margin achieved outstanding levels in the last years, with a very high net profit margin of 55.85% in 2025. This demonstrates an increasingly efficient profitable operation and strong cost management, allowing the company to convert a higher proportion of its revenue into profit over time.

In summary, the company experienced initial instability with losses in 2009-2010 but demonstrated a strong recovery and long-term growth across all key financial metrics. Both revenue and net income grew substantially, particularly in the last few years, alongside a marked improvement in net profitability margins, reflecting enhanced operational efficiency and scalable profitability.
