The analysis of the quarterly data reveals clear trends in turnover ratios over the reported periods.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover
- The net fixed asset turnover ratio shows a general upward trend from the inception of the data at 2.47 to a peak around 3.56. This suggests improved efficiency in utilizing fixed assets to generate sales over time. However, from the peak, there is a noticeable gradual decline towards the end of the period down to approximately 2.58, indicating a possible reduction in asset utilization efficiency or increased capital expenditure without proportional sales growth.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover (Including Operating Lease, Right-of-Use Asset)
- This adjusted ratio follows a similar but slightly lower trend compared to the net fixed asset turnover without leases. It rises steadily from 2.2 to about 3.16 before declining to 2.26 by the last period. The consistently lower values reflect the inclusion of lease assets, suggesting their impact dilutes the turnover ratio, possibly due to capitalizing leased assets increasing the asset base.
- Total Asset Turnover
- The total asset turnover ratio demonstrates continuous growth from 0.6 to about 1.04, indicating enhanced overall efficiency in generating revenue from the entire asset base. After reaching its peak, there is a gradual decrease to around 0.77, implying that asset growth outpaced revenue growth in the latter periods or operational challenges affecting asset utilization.
- Equity Turnover
- The equity turnover ratio rises initially from 1.42 to approximately 1.88, pointing to better utilization of shareholders' equity in generating sales. A steady decline follows, ending near 1.28. This downward movement potentially indicates slower revenue growth relative to equity expansion or changes in capital structure affecting performance.
Overall, the data indicate that all turnover ratios increased steadily in the earlier periods, reflecting improved operational efficiency and asset utilization. In later periods, a common pattern of decline across these ratios emerges, which may warrant further examination into asset management practices, capital expenditure, sales trends, and financial strategies to understand the underlying factors contributing to this shift.

The financial data presents several key trends in revenues, property, plant and equipment (net), and net fixed asset turnover over multiple quarters.
- Revenues
- Revenues show a general upward trend from March 2020 through December 2024, moving from approximately 5,985 million US dollars to peaks exceeding 25,000 million US dollars in multiple quarters. The data reveals periods of fluctuation, with some quarters exhibiting slight declines following peaks, such as the drop from 25,707 million in December 2024 to 19,335 million in March 2025. Despite these occasional dips, the overall trajectory indicates significant growth over the span analyzed.
- Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
- The net value of property, plant, and equipment steadily increases across all periods, starting at 10,638 million US dollars in March 2020 and reaching approximately 37,088 million US dollars by December 2024. The data does show a minor contraction between December 2024 (36,116 million) and March 2025 (35,836 million), but the broader pattern is one of robust expansion, highlighting substantial investment in fixed assets.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover
- This ratio, which measures revenue generated per unit of fixed asset, demonstrates an initial rising trend from 2.47 in September 2020 to a peak of 3.56 in June 2023. Subsequently, the ratio declines gradually, falling to 2.58 by March 2025. This suggests that after reaching a period of operational efficiency in leveraging fixed assets to generate sales, there has been a reduced turnover rate in recent quarters, potentially indicative of increasing capital investment that has not yet fully translated into proportional revenue increases.
In summary, the reviewed periods show substantial growth in both revenues and fixed asset base, underpinned by heavy capital expenditures. The peak and subsequent decline in net fixed asset turnover suggest a phase of capital expansion wherein asset growth outpaces revenue growth temporarily. This could imply ongoing efforts to scale operations, with efficiency gains yet to stabilize in the most recent periods.

The quarterly financial data reveals several notable trends regarding revenues, property, plant and equipment, and net fixed asset turnover over the analyzed periods.
- Revenues
-
Revenues display significant variability throughout the periods. Initially, revenues showed a steady increase from approximately 5,985 million USD in March 2020 to a peak of 17,719 million USD in December 2021. However, starting in 2022, revenues experienced more pronounced fluctuations, reaching highs in the range of approximately 25,000 million USD during various quarters in 2023 and early 2024, followed by a noticeable decline to 19,335 million USD in March 2025. This pattern suggests periods of robust sales growth interrupted by notable declines towards the latest periods reported.
- Property, Plant and Equipment (Net, including Operating Lease, Right-of-Use Asset)
-
This asset category shows a consistent upward trajectory over the full period. Starting at 11,835 million USD in March 2020, it increased steadily to 42,418 million USD by March 2025. The growth is gradual and continuous, indicating ongoing capital investment and expansion of physical assets over time without any periods of decline or significant stagnation. This steady growth reflects a systematic enhancement of the company's production or operational capabilities.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover (including Operating Lease, Right-of-Use Asset)
-
The net fixed asset turnover ratio, available from September 2020 onwards, initially increased from 2.2 to a peak of 3.16 in June 2023, demonstrating improved efficiency in generating revenues relative to the fixed asset base. Subsequently, this ratio exhibited a declining trend, decreasing to 2.26 by March 2025. This decline suggests that while the company has invested heavily in assets, its ability to convert those assets into revenue has diminished in the later periods, signaling a possible reduction in operational efficiency or changing market conditions impacting revenue generation relative to asset size.
In summary, the financial data reflects a robust expansion of asset base coupled with fluctuating revenues, culminating in a peak and subsequent decline in net fixed asset turnover. This points to a stage of heavy investment accompanied by recent challenges in maintaining proportional revenue growth given the asset scale.

The financial data reveals several notable trends in the quarterly performance and asset utilization over the observed periods.
- Revenues
- Revenues display a generally increasing trajectory from the first quarter of 2020 through the last quarter of 2024, albeit with fluctuations. Starting at $5,985 million in March 2020, revenues rose steadily to peak at $25,707 million in December 2024. However, intermittent declines are observed, for example, in June 2022 and September 2023, where revenues dipped relative to the previous quarters. The data for the first quarter of 2025 shows a marked decrease, dropping to $19,335 million.
- Total Assets
- The company's total assets consistently increased over the entire period, reflecting expanding asset base and potentially ongoing capital investments or acquisitions. Beginning at $37,250 million in March 2020, total assets escalated to reach $125,111 million by the first quarter of 2025. The growth appears steady with no significant contractions or plateaus, indicating sustained asset accumulation.
- Total Asset Turnover Ratio
- The total asset turnover ratio demonstrates improvement from 0.60 in September 2020, indicating rising efficiency in utilizing assets to generate revenue. It rises progressively to peak close to 1.04 in September 2023, suggesting optimal asset use during this time. However, post this peak, there is a noticeable decline in the ratio, dropping to 0.77 by March 2025. This downturn implies a reduction in efficiency or a deceleration in revenue growth in relation to asset expansion during the most recent periods.
In summary, although the company has consistently grown its asset base and generated increasing revenues over the long term, the recent decline in the total asset turnover ratio coupled with a revenue drop in early 2025 may indicate emerging challenges in asset productivity or market demand. Close monitoring and further analysis are recommended to understand the factors influencing this changing efficiency and revenue pattern.

The financial data reveals several notable trends over the observed periods. Revenues demonstrate a generally upward trajectory from March 2020 to December 2024, with some fluctuations. Starting at approximately $5,985 million in March 2020, revenues grew substantially, peaking multiple times notably around December 2021 ($17,719 million), December 2022 ($24,318 million), and December 2024 ($25,707 million). However, there is a decline observed in the final reported period, March 2025, where revenues fall to $19,335 million, signaling a significant drop after previous highs.
Stockholders’ equity has shown consistent and strong growth throughout the entire timeline. Beginning at $9,173 million in March 2020, it steadily increased each quarter, reaching $74,653 million in March 2025. This continuous rise indicates effective capital accumulation, reinvestment, or retained earnings contributing to the company's expanding equity base.
The equity turnover ratio, which measures the efficiency of asset use to generate sales, exhibits a rise from 1.42 in September 2020 to a peak in December 2022 at 1.88. Post this peak, the ratio gradually declines to 1.28 by March 2025. This trend implies the company initially improved in effectively generating revenues from equity but faced reduced efficiency or possibly more equity accumulation relative to sales in the later periods.
- Revenues
- Generally increasing with seasonal or periodic peaks at year-end quarters, followed by intermittent declines; notable drop in the final quarter observed.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Steady and uninterrupted increase over all quarters, indicating strong equity growth and possibly retained earnings reinvestment.
- Equity Turnover Ratio
- Improving from 2020 with a peak in late 2022, followed by a progressive decline, suggesting decreasing sales generation efficiency per unit of equity in later periods.
