Common equity (market value) = Share price × No. shares of common stock outstanding
= 342.01 × 110,026,430


Equity Market Value and Total Equity
The common equity, measured in market value terms, exhibited consistent growth over the observed five-year period. Beginning at approximately $12.2 billion in 2018, it increased steadily each year to reach about $37.6 billion in 2022. This more than threefold increase indicates a strong appreciation in the company's equity valuation.
Interestingly, the total equity value matched the market value of common equity exactly each year, suggesting no preferred shares or other components affecting total equity distinct from common equity.
Total Equity and Debt
The sum of total equity and debt also showed a steady year-over-year increase from roughly $12.3 billion in 2018 to nearly $37.7 billion in 2022. This trend mirrors the increase in total equity and reflects a proportional expansion in the company's capital structure, possibly in response to growth or investments.
Enterprise Value (EV)
Enterprise value displayed a consistent upward trajectory over the five years, starting from approximately $12.1 billion in 2018 to $37.5 billion in 2022. The rise in EV aligns closely with the increases observed in equity values and total equity and debt, indicating that the market's valuation of the firm, including debt and equity components, has consistently improved.
Overall Trends and Insights
The financial data reveals a robust growth pattern in the capital base and market valuation of the company from 2018 through 2022. The steady increase in equity market value suggests positive market sentiment and potentially enhanced profitability or operational performance.
The parallel growth in total equity and total equity plus debt indicates a balanced use of financial leverage, maintaining growth in both equity and liabilities. The enterprise value's alignment with these trends supports the conclusion that the overall valuation and financial size of the company have expanded significantly, reflecting strategic financial management and market confidence.
