Current Assets
Current assets increased significantly from 8,524 million US dollars at the end of 2020 to 11,407 million US dollars by the end of 2021, representing a notable growth. However, in 2022, current assets declined to 9,879 million US dollars, indicating a partial reversal from the previous year's increase but still maintaining a higher level than in 2020.
Total Assets
Total assets showed a gradual increase from 25,093 million US dollars at the end of 2020 to 26,172 million US dollars at the end of 2021. In 2022, total assets remained relatively stable at 26,086 million US dollars, indicating minimal change from the prior year and suggesting that the asset base has plateaued after a slight upward trend.
Overall Analysis
The data indicate a period of asset growth during 2021, particularly in current assets, which could signify improved liquidity or operational growth. However, the reduction in current assets in 2022, despite stable total assets, may point to a reallocation of resources or changes in working capital management. The total asset stability in 2022 suggests that the company maintained its asset base without significant expansion or contraction during that period.

The analysis of the financial data reveals several key trends in the company’s cash flow activities over the three-year period ending December 31, 2022.

Operating Activities
The net cash flows provided by operating activities increased from $1,692 million in 2020 to $2,237 million in 2021, indicating an improvement in operating cash generation. However, in 2022 there was a decline to $1,743 million, which, although still positive, suggests some reduction in operational cash efficiency or possibly higher operational costs or changes in working capital management compared to the preceding year.
Investing Activities
The net cash flows from investing activities displayed more volatility. There was a significant cash inflow of $1,106 million in 2020, followed by a substantial cash outflow of $692 million in 2021. This shift could suggest increased capital expenditures or investments made in 2021. In 2022, the cash flow again turned positive to $1,745 million, a notable reversal indicating possible divestitures, asset sales, or reduced investment spending driving cash inflows.
Financing Activities
Net cash flows used in financing activities exhibited a consistent increasing outflow trend over the three years, moving from -$681 million in 2020 to -$1,562 million in 2021 and further deteriorating to -$2,931 million in 2022. This pattern implies an escalating use of cash for financing purposes, such as debt repayments, dividends, or share repurchases, reflecting a significant allocation of cash resources towards meeting financing obligations or returning capital to shareholders.

Overall, the company demonstrated strong operating cash flow generation with some fluctuations, contrasted by variable investing cash flows indicating an active investment and divestiture strategy. Simultaneously, the increasing negative cash flows from financing activities highlight a growing focus on debt reduction or shareholder returns, which may be influencing the company’s liquidity and cash management strategy.

1, 2, 3 Data adjusted for splits and stock dividends.


The financial data reveals several notable trends in earnings and dividends over the three-year period ending in 2022. Basic earnings per share (EPS) experienced a decrease from $2.29 in 2020 to $1.92 in 2021, followed by a significant increase to $4.19 in 2022. This pattern indicates an initial decline in profitability per share, with a strong recovery and growth in the final year.

Diluted earnings per share similarly declined from $2.25 in 2020 to $1.87 in 2021 and then rose substantially to $4.10 in 2022. The close alignment between basic and diluted EPS across all years suggests limited dilution effects from convertible securities or stock options.

Dividend per share showed a consistent upward trend, starting at $0.28 in 2020, increasing to $0.51 in 2021, and further rising to $0.64 in 2022. This steady increase in dividends despite the dip in earnings in 2021 indicates a commitment to returning value to shareholders and possibly reflects confidence in the company's cash flow stability.

Summary of Observations
- Earnings per share declined in 2021 but more than doubled in 2022, indicating a strong rebound in profitability.
- The dilution impact on earnings per share is minimal, as seen from the comparable basic and diluted EPS figures.
- Dividends per share demonstrate consistent growth, underlining a shareholder-friendly approach even during a year of reduced earnings.
