- Net Sales
 - Net sales demonstrated a consistent upward trend from 2019 through 2022, rising from approximately $8.23 billion to $12.62 billion. However, there was a slight decline in 2023, with sales dropping marginally to around $12.55 billion.
 - Cost of Sales
 - Cost of sales increased steadily over the period from roughly $5.61 billion in 2019 to $8.59 billion in 2022. A minor decrease occurred in 2023, reducing costs slightly to approximately $8.47 billion, mirroring the trend in sales.
 - Gross Profit
 - Gross profit expanded consistently from about $2.62 billion in 2019 to $4.03 billion in 2022, with a moderate increase to approximately $4.08 billion in 2023. This suggests improved profitability at the gross level, supported by growing sales and relatively stable costs in the final year.
 - Acquisition-Related Expenses
 - Acquisition-related expenses fluctuated across the years, peaking notably in 2021 at $70.4 million, while remaining lower in other years, such as around $25.4 million in 2019 and $21.5 million in 2022. The 2023 figure increased again to $34.6 million, indicating irregular acquisition activity costs.
 - Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
 - SG&A expenses followed a gradual upward trajectory, increasing from roughly $971 million in 2019 to $1.49 billion in 2023. This rise suggests expanding operational and administrative costs aligned with overall business growth.
 - Operating Income
 - Operating income showed continuous growth from $1.62 billion in 2019 to $2.59 billion in 2022, followed by a slight decrease to about $2.56 billion in 2023. This decline in the final year reflects the modest drop in net sales and higher operating expenses.
 - Interest Expense
 - Interest expense remained relatively stable around $115 million through 2021 but increased gradually to $139.5 million by 2023, indicating potentially higher debt levels or increased borrowing costs.
 - Other Income (Expense), Net
 - Other income (expense) experienced variability, ranging from gains of $8.6 million in 2019 to a small loss of $0.4 million in 2021, before rising to $29.3 million in 2023. The 2023 increase suggests favorable non-operating or incidental gains in the latest year.
 - Income from Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes
 - This income steadily increased from $1.50 billion in 2019 to a peak of $2.47 billion in 2022, dipping slightly to $2.45 billion in 2023, paralleling the trends seen in operating income.
 - Provision for Income Taxes
 - The tax provision rose consistently from $332 million in 2019 to a high of $551 million in 2022 before decreasing to $509 million in 2023, reflecting higher earnings and possibly changes in tax rates or structures.
 - Net Income from Continuing Operations
 - Net income from continuing operations increased steadily from about $1.16 billion in 2019 to approximately $1.92 billion in 2023, with continuous growth illustrating improved profitability.
 - Net Income
 - Overall net income mirrored the continuing operations trend, rising from $1.16 billion in 2019 to $1.95 billion in 2023, inclusive of a minor impact from discontinued operations in 2021. The sustained increase demonstrates consistent financial performance improvement.
 - Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
 - Noncontrolling interests’ share of net income increased in absolute terms from $9 million in 2019 to $17.5 million in 2023, indicating growing minority interests in the company’s earnings.
 - Net Income Attributable to Amphenol Corporation
 - The net income attributable to the parent entity rose from $1.15 billion in 2019 to $1.93 billion in 2023, tracking closely with the overall net income and reflecting strong earnings attributable to shareholders.
 - Additional Insights
 - The financial data suggests the company experienced robust growth primarily up to 2022, with slight deceleration or stabilization in 2023 marked by a negligible decline in net sales and operating income. Costs increased consistently but were generally well managed, allowing for expansion of profit margins. The increase in acquisition-related expenses and interest costs in recent years may warrant further examination to assess their impact on future profitability.
