- Net Earnings
- Net earnings exhibited considerable fluctuation over the analyzed period. Beginning at approximately $944 million in 2018, earnings nearly doubled to about $1.77 billion in 2019. However, there was a notable decline to roughly $950 million in 2020, followed by a moderate increase to approximately $1.15 billion in 2021. The most significant change occurred in 2022, when net earnings surged sharply to approximately $4.54 billion, representing the highest value in the time series by a wide margin. This pattern indicates substantial volatility, with a pronounced financial performance improvement in the latest year.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT showed a relatively more stable trajectory compared to net earnings. Starting at about $1.15 billion in 2018, NOPAT increased substantially to nearly $2.0 billion in 2019. After this peak, it declined to roughly $1.25 billion in 2020 but experienced a slight recovery in 2021 with a value of approximately $1.34 billion. In 2022, NOPAT decreased marginally to about $1.28 billion. Despite some fluctuations, the variations in NOPAT were less extreme, suggesting consistent operating profitability even during periods of net earnings volatility.
- Comparative Insights
- When comparing net earnings and NOPAT trends, it is evident that while both metrics showed increases in 2019, net earnings were subject to greater volatility in the subsequent years. The sharp rise in net earnings in 2022 was not paralleled to the same extent by NOPAT, which remained relatively stable. This may indicate that extraordinary or non-operational factors significantly influenced net earnings in that year. Overall, operating profitability remained relatively steady throughout the period, despite fluctuations in reported net income.
Cash Operating Taxes
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2019-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2018-12-31).
- Income Tax Expense
- The income tax expense shows a notable increase from 254,000 thousand US dollars in 2018 to a peak of 459,500 thousand US dollars in 2019. Following this peak, there is a sharp decline to 259,600 thousand US dollars in 2020, indicating a significant fluctuation. The values then exhibit a gradual increase in the subsequent years, rising to 288,400 thousand US dollars in 2021 and slightly further to 296,400 thousand US dollars in 2022. Overall, the tax expense demonstrates volatility over the five-year period while maintaining a level in the upper 200,000s to near 300,000 thousand US dollars range in the latest years.
- Cash Operating Taxes
- Cash operating taxes also exhibit a fluctuating pattern. Starting at 356,809 thousand US dollars in 2018, the figure grows substantially to 590,630 thousand US dollars in 2019, nearly a 65% increase. This is followed by a considerable reduction to 364,900 thousand US dollars in 2020. Subsequently, the cash operating taxes decline slightly in 2021 to 332,378 thousand US dollars, before escalating again sharply in 2022 to 511,065 thousand US dollars. Despite the fluctuations, the overall trend indicates significant variability with the cash operating taxes generally remaining above 300,000 thousand US dollars except for the exceptional peak and trough years.
- Comparison and Insights
- Both income tax expense and cash operating taxes experience their highest values in 2019, succeeded by a sharp decrease in 2020. The income tax expense shows more stability from 2020 onwards relative to cash operating taxes, which remains more volatile, especially with the substantial increase in 2022. This variance between income tax expense and cash operating taxes could suggest changes in tax payment timings or strategies impacting cash flow versus accounting recognition. The patterns imply that while accounting tax expenses are somewhat steady post-2020, actual cash tax payments are subject to larger swings.

6 Removal of accumulated other comprehensive income.
- Total Reported Debt & Leases
- The total reported debt and leases increased significantly from 2018 to 2020, rising from approximately $5.19 billion to $9.85 billion. However, in the following years, debt decreased, falling to about $8.15 billion in 2021 and further to $6.87 billion by the end of 2022. This trend indicates an initial period of increased leverage followed by a reduction in debt obligations over the last two years of the period analyzed.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity showed consistent growth throughout the entire time frame. Starting at around $7.74 billion in 2018, equity increased steadily each year, reaching approximately $16.04 billion by the end of 2022. The growth became more pronounced from 2021 to 2022, suggesting a strong strengthening of the company's capital base during the most recent year.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital mirrored the trends observed in equity and debt, rising from about $14.79 billion in 2018 to a peak of $23 billion in 2020. A slight decrease occurred in 2021 to roughly $22.5 billion, followed by a rebound to approximately $26.2 billion in 2022. This reflects overall growth in the capital deployed by the company with some variability corresponding to changes in debt and equity levels.
