1 US$ in thousands
- Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Yahoo! Inc.
- The net income shows notable fluctuations over the analyzed period. It started at approximately 1.9 billion USD in 2005, then declined significantly to roughly 751 million USD in 2006, followed by a further decrease to about 660 million USD in 2007. The downward trend continued until 2008, reaching approximately 424 million USD. A recovery phase occurred between 2009 and 2010, with net income rising back to more than 1.2 billion USD. The value increased again in 2012, peaking remarkably at nearly 4 billion USD, before experiencing another peak of over 7.5 billion USD in 2014. Despite these peaks, the company reported negative net income in 2015 and 2016, with losses of approximately 4.4 billion USD and 214 million USD, respectively. This pattern indicates significant volatility in profitability with intermittent periods of strong performance and substantial losses in the latest years.
- Total Assets
- Total assets exhibited an overall upward trajectory throughout most of the evaluated timeframe. Beginning at about 10.8 billion USD in 2005, assets steadily increased year-over-year to around 14.9 billion USD by 2009. Between 2010 and 2012, total assets fluctuated slightly but remained near this level. A marked surge occurred in 2014, with total assets expanding dramatically to over 61.9 billion USD. After this peak, total assets declined in 2015 to approximately 45.2 billion USD and then slightly increased in 2016 to about 48.1 billion USD. The sharp increase in 2014 followed by a decrease suggests a significant asset restructuring or acquisition activity around that period.
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- The return on assets mirrored the net income trend to a degree but displayed substantial variation. The ROA began at 17.51% in 2005, dropping rapidly to 6.53% in 2006 and further to 5.4% in 2007. It continued declining to a low of 3.1% in 2008 before improving to 8.25% in 2010. The metric reached a notable peak of 23.07% in 2012, indicating highly efficient asset utilization. However, ROA decreased afterwards, settling at 12.14% in 2014 before dropping sharply into negative territory in 2015 (-9.64%) and marginally negative in 2016 (-0.45%). This swing from positive performance to negative indicates challenges in generating profits from assets, particularly in the latter years analyzed.
