1 US$ in millions
- Net Income Trend Analysis
- The net income attributable to the company displayed considerable variability over the 20-year period. Starting at 4,786 million US dollars in 2005, the figure showed a general upward trend until 2010, peaking at 19,864 million US dollars. Following this peak, net income experienced substantial fluctuations, with notable dips in 2011 (3,944 million US dollars) and again in 2014 (6,224 million US dollars). Post-2014, net income rose substantially, reaching a high of 29,450 million US dollars in 2017. However, there were periods of decline thereafter, including a negative figure in 2020 (-5,176 million US dollars), before recovery in the subsequent years. The most recent figures of 14,400 million in 2023 and 10,948 million in 2024 reflect some stabilization at a moderately high level compared to earlier years.
- Stockholders’ Equity Trend Analysis
- Stockholders’ equity exhibited a general growth trend from 2005 to 2018, increasing from 54,690 million US dollars to a maximum of 184,221 million US dollars. After 2018, equity levels declined sharply over the next four years, bottoming out at 97,500 million US dollars in 2022. A slight recovery was noted in the subsequent two years, ending at 104,372 million US dollars in 2024. This pattern highlights a period of expansion in shareholder equity followed by a significant contraction, with partial restoration toward the end of the observed timeframe.
- Return on Equity (ROE) Analysis
- The return on equity (ROE) percentage demonstrated marked volatility. Initially, ROE began at 8.75% in 2005, declining to a low of 3.74% in 2011. From 2011 to 2017, ROE generally recovered, peaking at 20.91% in 2017. Following this peak, ROE again decreased, notably entering negative territory in 2020 at -3.2%. ROE rebounded post-2020 to 13.94% in 2023 and slightly declined to 10.49% by 2024. The fluctuations in ROE correlate with the volatility seen in net income and stockholders’ equity, reflecting varying profitability relative to equity over the period.
- Overall Insights
- The data reveal a company experiencing significant financial fluctuations over two decades. Net income growth was generally robust in the first decade, followed by periods of volatility and recovery. Stockholders’ equity growth until 2018 implies substantial accumulation of retained earnings and possibly other equity elements, but the sharp decline thereafter indicates notable equity reduction events or losses. The ROE movements reflect this overall financial variability, underscoring periods of strong profitability and intermittent losses. Together, these trends indicate a dynamic financial profile with phases of expansion, contraction, and recovery.
