The analysis of the financial data over the six-year period reveals notable fluctuations and trends in the equity, debt, and enterprise value metrics.

Common Equity (Market Value) and Total Equity
Both metrics show identical values across all periods, indicating a consistent measurement approach. Starting from approximately $25.8 billion in early 2017, these values increased steadily to peak at about $42.9 billion in early 2021, followed by a decline to around $33.5 billion by early 2022. This trend suggests a general growth in the company's equity base up to 2021, with a subsequent contraction in the following year.
Total Equity and Debt
This figure consistently exceeds total equity alone, reflecting the inclusion of debt. The amount rose from approximately $26.2 billion in early 2017 to a high of around $45.4 billion in early 2021, then decreased to about $36.0 billion in early 2022. This pattern indicates an overall increase in the company's capital structure size, with heightened leverage or debt levels peaking around 2021 before retracting somewhat thereafter.
Enterprise Value (EV)
The enterprise value started at roughly $25.1 billion in early 2017 and showed growth through early 2021 when it reached a maximum near $40.6 billion. However, it subsequently contracted to about $31.1 billion by early 2022. This pattern parallels the behavior of both equity and total capital, reflecting market capitalization, debt levels, and possibly shifts in investor valuation or market conditions.

Overall, the financial data demonstrates a growth phase culminating in early 2021 across equity and capital structure metrics, followed by a notable decline in all categories in the subsequent year. This may reflect changing market dynamics, adjustments in capital strategy, or impacts from external factors influencing the company’s valuation and financing.
