- Net Fixed Asset Turnover
- The net fixed asset turnover ratio exhibits a generally upward trend over the analyzed periods. Starting from an initial reported value of 3.87 in January 2020, the ratio gradually increased, reaching 7.99 by July 2025. There are slight fluctuations observed throughout, such as a minor dip around April 2021 (3.87), but the overall trajectory is positive, indicating enhanced efficiency in generating sales from net fixed assets over time.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover (Including Operating Lease, Right-of-Use Asset)
- This adjusted ratio follows a similar upward trend but at a lower absolute level compared to the net fixed asset turnover excluding operating leases. Beginning at 2.96 in January 2020, the ratio increases steadily to peak around 5.82 in July 2024 before experiencing a decrease to 4.87 in July 2025. The progression suggests that incorporating right-of-use assets and operating leases affects the turnover measurement but maintains a long-term improvement in asset utilization.
- Total Asset Turnover
- The total asset turnover ratio remains relatively stable, fluctuating within a narrow band between approximately 0.42 and 0.53 throughout the period. The ratio started at 0.53 in January 2020, experienced slight decreases and recoveries, with the lowest point around April 2022 (0.42), and ends near 0.50 in July 2025. This stability suggests consistent overall asset utilization without substantial efficiency gains or losses in generating revenue from total assets.
- Equity Turnover
- The equity turnover ratio shows a declining trend over the observed timeframe. Beginning at 1.46 in January 2020, the ratio progressively decreases to around 0.98 by July 2025. This downward movement indicates a gradual reduction in revenue generation relative to shareholder equity, potentially reflecting either an increase in equity base without proportional revenue growth or reduced turnover efficiency.

- Revenue Trends
- Revenues exhibited a consistent upward trajectory over the examined quarters, increasing from US$825 million in April 2019 to US$2,348 million by July 2025. This reflects steady growth in the company's sales, with periodic incremental increases typically observed each quarter. Notably, the growth pace appears to accelerate gradually in later periods, particularly from early 2023 onwards, suggesting strengthening market demand or enhanced business operations.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- The net value of property and equipment showed some fluctuation but remained generally stable over time. Initial values around US$886 million increased modestly to a peak of approximately US$1,238 million in July 2024 before declining slightly to US$1,121 million by July 2025. This pattern indicates ongoing asset investments with occasional disposals or depreciation effects, resulting in relatively balanced asset levels throughout the period.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio
- The net fixed asset turnover ratio, starting to be available from October 2019, displayed a clear ascending trend. It rose from approximately 3.87 to 7.99 by July 2025, indicating increasing efficiency in generating revenues from fixed assets. This improvement suggests enhanced utilization of property and equipment assets, reflecting improved operational productivity or greater revenue generation relative to asset investment.
- Overall Insights
- The combination of steady revenue growth, stable asset base, and sharply improving asset turnover ratio collectively present a positive operational efficiency story. The company appears to be scaling its revenue stream effectively without proportional increases in fixed asset investment, leading to better asset utilization over time. This trend may imply successful management strategies focusing on maximizing returns from existing asset infrastructure while supporting continuous revenue expansion.

The quarterly financial data reveals several notable trends in the company's revenues, property and equipment holdings, and net fixed asset turnover ratios over the examined period.
- Revenues
- There is a consistent upward trajectory in revenues from April 2019 through July 2025, increasing steadily from 825 million US dollars to 2,348 million US dollars. This represents nearly a threefold increase over the span of six years. The growth pattern appears stable, with no significant fluctuations or declines, indicating sustained expansion and potentially effective market penetration or increased sales volume.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- The net value of property and equipment, including operating lease right-of-use assets, shows a generally fluctuating but upward trend from 1,166 million US dollars in April 2019 to 1,840 million US dollars by July 2025. There are some periods of moderate decline or stagnation, such as around mid-2022 and early 2025, but overall the balance rises, suggesting ongoing investments or acquisitions in fixed assets. The increase is less pronounced than revenue growth, indicating a potentially more efficient usage or slower growth in capital assets relative to sales.
- Net Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio
- The net fixed asset turnover ratio, representing the efficiency in using fixed assets to generate revenue, demonstrates a clear and consistent increase. Starting from approximately 2.96 in early 2020, the ratio climbs to a peak of about 5.82 by October 2024 before slightly retreating to 4.87 by January 2025. This upward movement signifies improving operational efficiency and better asset utilization over time. The peak period corresponds with the highest levels of both revenues and property and equipment, indicating effective scaling of asset use despite the growth in fixed asset base.
In summary, the data reflects sustained revenue growth accompanied by a slower but steady increase in capital assets, coupled with improving asset turnover efficiency. These trends collectively indicate that the company is expanding its business while managing to enhance the productivity of its fixed asset investments.

The financial data reveals a consistent upward trend in revenues over the analyzed periods, indicating sustained growth in the company’s top-line performance. Beginning at US$825 million in April 2019, revenues progressively increased each quarter, reaching US$2,348 million by July 2025. This steady rise suggests effective market expansion or increased market demand for the company's offerings.
Total assets also exhibit growth but with more fluctuations compared to revenues. From US$5,824 million in April 2019, total assets rose to a peak of US$13,250 million by July 2022, followed by a slight dip and subsequent fluctuations around the US$13,000–16,000 million range until January 2025. Afterward, total assets increase again towards US$17,961 million by July 2025. These variations may reflect changes in investment strategies, capital expenditures, or asset revaluation activities during the period.
The total asset turnover ratio remains relatively stable throughout the timeline, generally oscillating between 0.42 and 0.53. The ratio indicates how efficiently the company utilizes its assets to generate revenues. While there was a gradual decline from around 0.53 in early quarters to a low near 0.42 in July 2022, the ratio recovered subsequently to around 0.50 in the latest periods. This pattern suggests periods of lower asset utilization efficiency followed by improvements in operational efficiency or asset management.
- Revenues
- Consistently increased every quarter from US$825 million to US$2,348 million over the period.
- Indicates strong and sustained business growth.
- Total Assets
- Demonstrated overall growth with notable fluctuations and a peak around mid-2022.
- Fluctuations may be related to strategic asset management or capital allocation decisions.
- Total Asset Turnover
- Maintained a stable range between 0.42 and 0.53.
- Lower values in mid-period suggest temporary decline in asset utilization efficiency, followed by recovery in later quarters.
Overall, the data shows the company's expanding revenue base supported by increasing asset investments, with fluctuating but generally stable efficiency in asset usage. These trends depict a growing enterprise maintaining operational efficiency despite changes in asset structure.

The financial data reveals a consistent upward trajectory in revenues over the analyzed quarters. Starting at 825 million US dollars in April 2019, revenues steadily increased each quarter, reaching 2,348 million US dollars by July 2025. This indicates sustained growth without any evident periods of decline, suggesting effective revenue-generating strategies or expanding market reach over the period.
Stockholders’ equity also shows a persistent growth pattern, beginning at 2,045 million US dollars in April 2019 and climbing to 9,172 million US dollars by July 2025. There are no abrupt drops in equity, which implies continuous retention of earnings or successful issuance of equity capital. The growth in equity outpaces that of revenues in relative terms, reflecting possibly high reinvestment rates or accumulation of reserves.
The equity turnover ratio, available from January 2020 onwards, exhibits a declining trend. It starts at approximately 1.46 in January 2020 and gradually decreases to around 0.98 by July 2025. This reduction suggests that revenues are growing at a slower pace relative to the equity base over time, indicating potential changes in asset utilization efficiency. A decreasing equity turnover may imply that the company is holding proportionally more equity compared to its revenue generation capability, which could be a result of strategic investment, capital accumulation, or changes in the asset structure.
- Revenues
- Steady quarter-over-quarter growth from 825 million USD to 2,348 million USD over six years.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Strong upward trend from 2,045 million USD to 9,172 million USD, indicating equity base expansion without major fluctuations.
- Equity Turnover Ratio
- Gradual decline from 1.46 to 0.98, reflecting decreasing revenue generation relative to equity over time.
Overall, the data points toward a growth-focused financial profile characterized by increasing revenues and expanding equity. Meanwhile, the declining equity turnover ratio may warrant attention to operational efficiency or capital allocation to maintain balanced financial performance.
