- Gross Profit Margin
- The gross profit margin shows a generally positive trend from March 2020 onwards, starting at 72.31% in March 2020 and rising steadily to a peak of 79.62% in June 2022. After this peak, a gradual decline is observed, with the margin decreasing to 70.29% by September 2025. This indicates that while the company maintained strong production efficiency and pricing power through mid-2022, there has been a weakening in these aspects in the subsequent periods.
- Operating Profit Margin
- The operating profit margin experienced substantial fluctuations. Initially, it was negative, falling as low as -21.6% in December 2020 and improving gradually to a peak of 19.04% in December 2022. After this improvement, the margin again declined sharply into negative territory, reaching -14.05% by September 2024. Subsequently, it recovered to reach 16.7% by June 2025. This volatility suggests periods of operational challenges followed by recovery phases, reflecting possible swings in operating expenses or core business profitability.
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin demonstrated a pattern broadly similar to the operating margin. It began with significant negative values in 2020, improving to positive margins peaking at 18.44% in December 2023. However, the margin again declined sharply to negative levels by September 2024, before experiencing a recovery to 10.58% by June 2025. The oscillation in net profitability indicates that after initial losses, the company achieved profitability, but faced renewed pressures before stabilizing again.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- Return on equity displayed high volatility and considerable swings. It was deeply negative through 2020, improving dramatically to a peak of 28.57% in December 2023, indicating strong shareholder returns during this period. Subsequently, ROE plummeted to severely negative values by June 2025, then rebounded to positive figures by June 2025. These fluctuations suggest significant changes in net income or equity base, reflecting varying levels of profitability and possibly capital structure adjustments.
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- Return on assets followed a largely consistent pattern with other profitability metrics. Initially negative in 2020 and early 2021, it turned positive in the middle periods, peaking at 9.08% in December 2023. This was followed by a downturn back into negative territory by September 2024, then a recovery to 5.33% by June 2025. The ROA trend aligns with net and operating margins, suggesting fluctuating asset efficiency and profitability over the periods analyzed.

The gross margin figures, expressed in millions of US dollars, exhibit a generally fluctuating but sustained level over the observed periods. Starting at 7,119 in March 2020, the gross margin rises notably through the year 2020, peaking near 9,629 by December 2021. Subsequently, it demonstrates a fluctuating trend with a noticeable dip around March 2025 at 7,530, before recovering again to 8,897 by June 2025. This pattern indicates variability in cost management or sales dynamics impacting gross profitability.
Revenues, also detailed in millions of US dollars, follow a broadly upward trajectory with some periods of decline or stagnation. Initial revenue in March 2020 was reported at 10,781 million USD. Despite some fluctuations over the quarters, a general increase is visible, culminating at 12,269 million USD by June 2025. Some quarters demonstrate slight drops, for example near March 2025; however, the overall trend suggests growth in top-line sales over the multi-year span.
The gross profit margin percentage, with data available from March 2021 onwards, shows an initial improvement from 72.31% to a peak of approximately 79.62% by June 2022. Thereafter, a gradual decline occurs through the subsequent quarters, reaching around 70.29% by June 2025. This decline in gross profit margin percentage despite increasing revenues could imply rising costs or pricing pressures affecting profitability ratios.
In summary, the data reveals a company experiencing solid revenue growth over the long term with gross margins in absolute terms remaining generally strong but somewhat volatile. The gross profit margin percentage trend indicates some erosion of profitability which may warrant further investigation into cost structures or market conditions. The recent slight recovery in gross margin amount concurrent with increasing revenues suggests potential operational or pricing adjustments responding to prior margin contraction.

- Operating Income (Loss) Trends
- The operating income exhibited significant volatility throughout the observed periods. Initially, values remained positive from March 2020 through September 2020, ranging between 859 million and 1342 million US dollars. However, in December 2020, there was a dramatic decline to a loss of 12,277 million US dollars. Following this sharp loss, operating income recovered to positive territory for the next three years, albeit with fluctuations. Peaks were noted in March 2021 (1828 million), December 2021 (2251 million), and March 2023 (2357 million). Notably, in December 2023, another substantial loss occurred (-11,435 million), followed by a return to positive income. The operating income saw a moderate rise towards mid-2025, ending at 2266 million US dollars. Overall, the data reveals two severe dips interrupting generally positive operating income levels.
- Revenue Patterns
- Revenues exhibited relative stability with moderate fluctuations over the entire period. The figures ranged roughly between 10,129 million and 12,342 million US dollars. A slight growth trend is observable, progressing from 10,781 million in March 2020 to a peak of 12,342 million in December 2024. Despite minor decreases, such as the dip to 10,966 million in September 2023, revenues largely maintained a consistent level without drastic shifts, indicating stable sales performance.
- Operating Profit Margin Analysis
- Operating profit margins were sporadically reported but demonstrate clear oscillations corresponding with fluctuations in operating income. The margin plunged to negative values in December 2020 (-21.6%) and remained negative through the first half of 2021, indicating earnings challenges during that period. From September 2021 onwards, margins improved, shifting into positive territory and maintaining within approximately 15% to 19% through most of 2022 and early 2023. Another drop to negative margins occurred in late 2023 and 2024, aligning with the observed operating losses. Subsequently, margins recovered to positive values by mid-2025, reflecting normalization of profitability. This pattern underscores cyclical operational challenges with intermittent periods of substantial losses followed by recovery phases.
- Summary of Financial Performance
- The financial data depicts a company facing significant episodic operating losses interspersed with periods of profitability. Despite stable and moderately increasing revenues, profitability, as expressed by operating income and profit margins, is volatile, with conspicuous large losses impacting overall performance. This may suggest exposure to non-recurring charges or operational disruptions in specific quarters. The frequent return to positive operating income and healthy profit margins during several periods highlights an underlying capacity for sustained earnings under normal conditions.

The financial data reveals significant volatility in net earnings attributable to the company over the analyzed periods. Initially, the company recorded a substantial net loss of $775 million in the first quarter of 2020, followed by fluctuations including a notable peak of $1,872 million in the third quarter of 2020 and a sharp loss of $10,027 million in the fourth quarter of the same year. From the first quarter of 2021 to the fourth quarter of 2023, net earnings mostly showed positive values fluctuating between $1,278 million and $2,373 million, indicating an overall recovery and growth phase. However, a marked drop to a loss of $11,911 million occurred in the first quarter of 2024, after which earnings resumed positive values but at generally lower levels compared to the previous years. Earnings toward mid-2025 show a mixed pattern with moderate positive values and some decline, signaling continued volatility in profitability.
Revenues experienced moderate fluctuations throughout the observed quarters but maintained a relatively stable range, generally between approximately $10.1 billion and $12.3 billion. Beginning at $10,781 million in Q1 2020, revenues experienced minor oscillations but showed a gradual increasing trend peaking at $12,342 million in the first quarter of 2025. The revenue figures indicate consistent sales performance despite the earnings volatility, suggesting that fluctuations in net earnings might be influenced by costs, expenses, or extraordinary items rather than top-line sales alone.
The net profit margin percentages were absent for several early quarters but when available, they reflect considerable instability. Negative margins appeared notably in the fourth quarter of 2020 and several quarters in 2021, with values as low as -21.2%, suggesting periods of significant loss relative to revenue. From late 2021 through 2023, margins were predominantly positive and improved, at times exceeding 18%, reflecting improved profitability. However, margins declined sharply into negative territory again in early 2024, correlating with the large losses registered in net earnings. The subsequent quarters into 2025 show a recovery back to positive margins but at lower levels than the mid-2022 to 2023 period, indicative of ongoing challenges in sustaining profitability.
In summary, the analysis points to a company experiencing cyclic earnings performance with episodes of significant losses offset by periods of strong profitability. Revenue has remained relatively stable with a mild upward trajectory, implying that profitability fluctuations are likely tied to factors beyond sales volume alone. The net profit margin trend corroborates the pattern of earnings variability, highlighting phases of high profitability interspersed with episodes of negative margin and sizable losses. The overall financial trajectory suggests the necessity for close monitoring of cost management and operational efficiencies to stabilize earnings and profit margins in the forthcoming periods.

- Net Earnings (Loss) Attributable to BMS
- The net earnings exhibit significant volatility over the observed periods. Initial quarters in 2020 show a considerable loss (-775 million US$ in March and -10,027 million US$ in December), followed by a notable recovery with profits peaking in December 2021 at 2,372 million US$. Earnings remain positive through 2022 and most of 2023, fluctuating between 1,278 million US$ and 2,262 million US$. However, a sharp loss is evident again in March 2024 at -11,911 million US$. Following this loss, earnings oscillate, showing a modest rebound and maintaining positive values, yet with a lower amplitude compared to the peak periods, ending with 1,310 million US$ in June 2025.
- Total BMS Shareholders’ Equity
- The shareholders’ equity decreased substantially from early 2020 (49,911 million US$ in March) to late 2021 (35,946 million US$ in December), indicating potential write-downs or losses. The equity further declined in 2022 and 2023, reaching a low of 16,490 million US$ in March 2024, which aligns with the significant net loss during the same quarter. Despite this, the equity stabilizes and slightly increases from mid-2024 onwards, ending at 17,435 million US$ in June 2025. The general trend indicates erosion of equity capital over the five-year span with some partial recovery in the final periods.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- ROE values portray a turbulent pattern, heavily influenced by large losses in certain quarters. The metrics range from negative extremes such as -54.78% in December 2024 to positive peaks above 28% in late 2023. The negative ROE periods correspond with the quarters recording substantial net losses, affirming the impact of deteriorating profitability on shareholder returns. Conversely, when net earnings are positive and equity is relatively stable, ROE improves markedly, often exceeding 20%. However, the recurring substantial losses cause a pattern of sharp declines in ROE, highlighting overall financial instability during the dataset timeframe.
- Summary of Trends and Insights
- Overall, the data suggests the company experiences episodic heavy losses, which significantly affect the shareholder equity base and returns to equity holders. There are intermittent periods of strong financial performance with positive net earnings and robust ROE, indicating potential for recovery and profitability. Nevertheless, the pattern points to high earnings volatility and challenges in maintaining consistent profitability and equity growth. The equity base has been substantially diminished over the period but shows signs of partial stabilization toward the end.

The analysis of the quarterly financial data reveals notable fluctuations in the company's net earnings, total assets, and return on assets (ROA) over the observed periods.
- Net Earnings (Loss) Attributable to BMS
- The net earnings demonstrate substantial volatility from March 2020 through June 2025. Early in the period, the company recorded a significant loss of -7,775 million USD in December 2020, contrasting sharply with positive earnings in other quarters such as 2,372 million USD in December 2021 and 2,262 million USD in March 2023. Notable negative spikes reoccur in March 2024 with a loss of -11,911 million USD. Between these drastic losses, earnings mostly remain positive, though varying, with values generally remaining above 1,200 million USD in recent years, suggesting recovery phases following the losses.
- Total Assets
- Total assets show a general downward trend from approximately 129,285 million USD in March 2020 to a low near 92,427 million USD in March 2025. There are some recoveries, notably an increase to 99,031 million USD in June 2024, but the overall trajectory indicates a steady reduction in asset base over the five-year span. This decline may indicate asset divestitures, depreciation, or other balance sheet adjustments.
- Return on Assets (ROA)
- ROA exhibits significant inconsistency, with multiple periods of negative returns. There are pronounced negative ROA figures from -7.61% to -9.66% between December 2020 and December 2024, corresponding with quarters of net losses which impact asset efficiency. Positive ROA values appear in other quarters, with a peak near 9.08% in September 2023 and remaining mostly positive in the later periods, indicating improved profitability in relation to asset use during those times. However, the alternating pattern suggests fluctuating operational performance and challenges in sustaining asset profitability consistently.
In summary, the financial data indicate the company experienced intermittent but severe financial setbacks within the analysis period, reflected in dramatic net losses and negative ROA values. Simultaneously, total assets decreased steadily, which could point toward structural changes or strategic asset management. Despite these challenges, there are periods of recovery highlighted by positive earnings and improving ROA, signaling partial restoration of financial health at various points.
