1 US$ in millions
- Total Debt
- The total debt data is available beginning in 2011, showing a significant increase from 1,086 million USD in 2011 to a peak of 21,893 million USD in 2015. Following this peak, total debt steadily declined through 2024, reaching 14,634 million USD. This indicates a substantial accumulation of debt over the early part of the period, with a deliberate reduction in debt levels thereafter.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders' equity exhibited a consistent upward trend from 2005 to 2014, increasing from 11,119 million USD to 39,169 million USD, which signifies a strong growth in net assets over this period. However, a sharp decline occurs in 2018 to 928 million USD, followed by some volatility and recovery from 2019 onwards, rising again to 26,274 million USD by 2024. This fluctuation indicates significant equity restructuring or impairments around 2018, with gradual restoration of equity value in subsequent years.
- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio is available from 2011 and generally confirms the observed trends in debt and equity. From 2011 to 2013, the ratio remained low and stable between 0.04 and 0.05, reflecting low leverage. This ratio escalated sharply to 17.64 in 2017, coinciding with the period of low equity. After this peak, the ratio progressively decreased, reaching 0.56 by 2024, suggesting improved leverage management and a return to more balanced capital structure.
