Common Equity (Market Value)
The market value of common equity showed significant fluctuations over the five-year period. It started at 18,887 million USD in 2018, slightly decreased to 17,976 million USD in 2019, then surged dramatically to 40,646 million USD in 2020. Following this peak, it declined substantially to 23,343 million USD in 2021 and further decreased to 15,287 million USD by the end of 2022. This indicates a strong market valuation spike in 2020, followed by a notable downward trend over the subsequent two years.
Total Equity
Total equity closely tracked the pattern of common equity, beginning at 18,887 million USD in 2018 and increasing marginally to 18,058 million USD in 2019. In 2020, it reached a high of 41,331 million USD, mirroring the sharp rise in market value equity. However, it declined sharply thereafter, falling to 23,911 million USD in 2021 and moderating further to 15,857 million USD in 2022. This trend suggests that the company’s net asset base expanded significantly in 2020 before contracting in subsequent years.
Total Equity and Debt
The combined total of equity and debt showed a growth trajectory from 29,039 million USD in 2018 to a peak of 61,064 million USD in 2020. This represents a more than doubling over the two-year span. Subsequently, it decreased to 41,620 million USD in 2021 and further narrowed to 31,703 million USD in 2022. The data reflects increased leverage or capital structure expansion in 2020, followed by deleveraging or asset reduction in the following years.
Enterprise Value (EV)
Enterprise value closely followed the trends observed in total equity and debt. Starting from 28,717 million USD in 2018, it rose steadily to 36,145 million USD in 2019 and peaked at 58,080 million USD in 2020. After the peak, EV sharply declined to 35,353 million USD in 2021 and further declined to 28,818 million USD in 2022. This pattern signifies a peak valuation in 2020, followed by a significant contraction in enterprise valuation by nearly 50% over two years.
Summary of Trends
The financial data reveals a pronounced peak across all key measures during the year 2020. Market value of common equity, total equity, total equity and debt, and enterprise value all approximately doubled or more compared to previous years. However, this peak was not sustained, with sharp declines in 2021 and 2022 leading most metrics back toward or below earlier levels reported in 2018 and 2019. This suggests a period of rapid expansion or revaluation in 2020 followed by material contraction or market correction. Overall, the trends imply significant volatility in valuation and capital structure across the observed timeframe.
