1 US$ in millions
The analysis covers the financial performance over a 17-year period, focusing on net income, revenues, and net profit margin of the company.
- Net Income
- Net income displays a generally upward trend from 722 million USD in 2005 to 2092 million USD by 2021. There are certain fluctuations, with a peak at 1318 million USD in 2010 followed by a slight decline up to 2012. A significant drop is observed in 2015 at 695 million USD which partly recovers in subsequent years. Although the figure dips in some years, notably 2018 and 2020, it reaches a record-high in 2021, indicating an overall growth trajectory despite intermittent setbacks.
- Revenues
- Revenues follow a strong upward trend throughout the period, growing from 5415 million USD in 2005 to 20248 million USD in 2021. The growth is relatively steady with no dramatic declines, signifying consistent expansion in sales or service volumes. There is a noticeable acceleration in revenue growth starting around 2013, with revenues nearly doubling from 2014 to 2021, highlighting an improved scale and market reach.
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin shows variability over the years, beginning at 13.34% in 2005 and increasing to a peak of 17.87% in 2010. Post-2010, the margin generally declines, reaching a low of 1.95% in 2018. After this trough, margins partially recover to 10.33% in 2021 but do not return to earlier peak levels. This fluctuation suggests changes in cost structure, pricing power, or other operational factors affecting profitability despite growing revenues.
Overall, while revenues have shown robust and consistent growth, net income has experienced more volatility with periodic declines but an overall upward path. The significant variation in net profit margin suggests that profitability management has faced challenges, especially mid-period, but showed improvement towards the end of the period evaluated. The data indicates a company expanding in scale with evolving profit efficiencies that may warrant further analysis on cost control and revenue quality.
