The financial performance over the observed period is characterized by a consistent and steady increase in net income, which rose from approximately 5.99 billion US$ in 2021 to 8.52 billion US$ by 2026. This upward trajectory indicates sustained operational profitability. Total comprehensive income mirrors this general growth pattern, although its progression is less linear due to the volatility associated with non-operational financial adjustments.

Net Income Growth
A consistent year-over-year increase is observed, with net income growing from 5.99 billion US$ in 2021 to 8.52 billion US$ in 2026. This represents a stable expansion of the bottom line, maintaining a positive growth slope throughout the entire period.
Volatility in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)
Other comprehensive income exhibits significant fluctuations, primarily driven by foreign currency translation and defined benefit plan adjustments. A notable contraction occurred in 2022, where OCI fell to negative 791.03 million US$, largely due to a foreign currency translation loss of 897.56 million US$. While OCI returned to positive territory from 2023 through 2026, the values remained inconsistent.
Impact of Defined Benefit Plans and Hedges
Defined benefit plans, net of tax, showed alternating results, moving from positive gains in 2021-2023 to a loss in 2024, before increasing significantly to 358.24 million US$ in 2026. Conversely, cash flow hedges remained predominantly negative after 2021, with accelerated losses recorded in 2025 and 2026.
Comprehensive Income Attribution
Comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests remained consistently negative throughout the period, widening from negative 84.85 million US$ in 2021 to negative 155.54 million US$ in 2026. Despite these noncontrolling interest losses, the comprehensive income attributable to the parent company demonstrated strong growth, increasing from 6.05 billion US$ in 2021 to 8.46 billion US$ in 2026.
