- Common equity (market value) and Total equity
- Both common equity (market value) and total equity exhibited a consistent upward trend over the five-year period. Starting at approximately $54.7 billion in 2020, equity rose steadily each year, reaching about $118.8 billion by the end of 2024. This represents more than a doubling of equity within the timeframe, indicating significant growth in the company's market valuation and shareholder equity base.
- Total equity and debt
- Total equity and debt followed a similar increasing pattern as total equity, beginning at roughly $55.3 billion in 2020 and growing to approximately $118.9 billion by 2024. The close alignment between total equity and total equity and debt values suggests that debt levels remained relatively modest compared to equity throughout the period. This stability implies a strong equity-funded capital structure.
- Enterprise value (EV)
- The enterprise value also showed substantial growth, increasing from around $48.6 billion in 2020 to about $112.8 billion in 2024. Although EV grew at a fast pace, the increase was slightly less pronounced than that of total equity and market value, potentially reflecting changes in debt levels or cash balances. Overall, the rising enterprise value mirrors the company’s expanding market capitalization and operational scale.
- Overall financial trends
- The data reflects strong growth over the five-year span in both equity and enterprise value. The consistent increase points to both enhanced investor confidence and effective capital management. The near parallel movement between total equity and total equity plus debt indicates prudent leverage control. This upward trajectory in key valuation metrics suggests favorable performance and growth prospects during the analysed period.
