The financial data reveals a dynamic trajectory in profitability and revenue generation over the analyzed periods.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Stockholders
This metric demonstrated consistent losses from 2010 through 2019, with fluctuations in the magnitude of net losses. A notable peak loss occurred in 2017 with a deficit of approximately $1,961 million. Following 2019, there was a significant reversal in fortunes, with net income turning positive in 2020 at $721 million. The upward trend accelerated sharply through 2021 and 2022, reaching a peak of $14,997 million in 2023 before slightly declining in 2024 to $7,091 million. This suggests a shift toward sustained profitability in recent years.
Revenues
Revenues exhibited robust and continuous growth across the entire span. The company grew revenues from a modest $117 million in 2010 to a substantial $97,690 million by 2024. Most notably, the revenue increase intensified from 2014 onward, with several years showing doubled or near-doubled annual revenue. This consistent expansion implies strong market demand and effective scaling of operations.
Net Profit Margin
Net profit margin values correspond closely with net income trends. From 2010 to 2019, margins were predominantly negative, reflecting ongoing unprofitability, although the severity of negative margins improved somewhat over time, from as low as approximately -132% in 2010 to smaller negative values around -3.5% in 2019. Beginning in 2020, the margin turned positive, improving substantially to a peak of approximately 15.5% in 2023, before moderating to around 7.3% in 2024. This pattern indicates not only a return to profitability but also an enhancement in operational efficiency and profitability relative to revenues.

Overall, the data portrays a company transitioning from consistent losses in the earlier years to strong and sustained profitability in recent years, underpinned by significant revenue growth. The improvement in net profit margin aligns with this trend, signaling heightened financial health and efficiency gains over time.
