Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2019-12-31).
The financial data over the five-year period indicates a pronounced positive trend in the company's profitability and operational earnings, with some fluctuations in the earliest years followed by strong upward momentum.
- Net Earnings (Losses) Attributable
- The net earnings showed a significant turnaround starting from a loss of -$1,293 million in 2019 to consistent profitability thereafter. In 2020, net earnings rose sharply to $4,467 million, although they dipped to $2,475 million in 2021. From 2021 onwards, net earnings resumed a positive trajectory, increasing to $5,764 million in 2022 and reaching the highest value of $8,130 million in 2023. This recovery and growth reflect steadily improving net profitability.
- Earnings Before Tax (EBT)
- EBT followed a similar pattern to net earnings with initial variability. From $766 million in 2019, EBT surged to $6,890 million in 2020 before declining to $3,824 million in 2021. Subsequent years showed robust growth again, with $7,389 million in 2022 and $10,928 million in 2023, marking an overall strong increase in earnings before tax and indicating improved operational performance before tax considerations.
- Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT)
- EBIT values demonstrated substantial growth over the period. Starting at $2,088 million in 2019, EBIT increased notably to $8,113 million in 2020, declined moderately to $5,012 million in 2021, and then enhanced steadily to $8,517 million in 2022 and $12,077 million in 2023. The fluctuations in 2020 and 2021 suggest some operational challenges or market conditions, but the overall trend is positive, reflecting efficient management of core operations.
- Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
- EBITDA, as a measure of operational cash flow, closely paralleled EBIT trends but at higher absolute values. From $2,314 million in 2019, EBITDA surged to $8,370 million in 2020, declined to $5,256 million in 2021, and then grew steadily to $8,743 million in 2022 and $12,349 million in 2023. The consistency between EBITDA and EBIT trends indicates stable depreciation and amortization expenses relative to earnings and emphasizes operational strength.
Overall, the company exhibited considerable recovery from a loss-making position in 2019 to strong earnings growth through 2023. Despite a noticeable dip in 2021 across all earnings metrics, the subsequent years demonstrated resilience and robust financial improvement. This pattern suggests effective strategic initiatives and operational enhancements driving profitability and cash flow generation.

- Enterprise Value (EV) Trend
- The enterprise value displayed a fluctuating pattern over the five-year period. It began at approximately $104,984 million in 2019, slightly increased in 2020 to $105,651 million, and then rose more significantly in 2021 to $117,052 million. However, from 2021 onwards, it declined consistently, reaching $105,800 million in 2022 and further decreasing to $94,723 million by the end of 2023. This indicates a reduction in overall valuation after peaking in 2021.
- EBITDA Development
- The EBITDA figures showed notable volatility but an overall upward trajectory across the five years. Starting at $2,314 million in 2019, EBITDA surged sharply to $8,370 million in 2020. This was followed by a decline to $5,256 million in 2021. Subsequently, EBITDA increased again to $8,743 million in 2022 and continued its upward trend to reach $12,349 million in 2023. The data suggests significant operational improvements or favorable conditions influencing earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization, especially in the last two years of the period evaluated.
- EV/EBITDA Ratio Analysis
- The EV/EBITDA ratio, which represents valuation relative to earnings, underwent considerable changes. It started at a very high level of 45.37 in 2019, indicating the enterprise value was substantially higher than EBITDA. This ratio dropped drastically to 12.62 in 2020, reflecting the sharp rise in EBITDA. In 2021, it increased again to 22.27, correlating with the drop in EBITDA. The ratio then declined steadily to 12.1 in 2022 and further to 7.67 in 2023, corresponding with rising EBITDA and decreasing enterprise value. This trend suggests that the company became more efficiently valued against its earnings over the period, with a particularly attractive valuation in recent years.
- Overall Insights
- The interplay between enterprise value and EBITDA shows that while the enterprise value peaked in 2021 before contracting, EBITDA experienced significant growth with minor setbacks. The decline in EV combined with strong EBITDA growth in recent years has led to a markedly lower EV/EBITDA ratio, which might imply improved operational performance and a potentially more favorable market valuation. The company appears to have improved earnings efficiency, and its valuation relative to earnings has become more conservative or justified by underlying performance.
