The analysis of the financial data over the three reported years reveals notable fluctuations in key profitability metrics, specifically net income attributable to common shareowners and net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT).
- Net income attributable to common shareowners
- This measure shows a decrease from 1982 million US dollars in 2020 to 1664 million US dollars in 2021, indicating a reduction of approximately 16%. However, in 2022, there is a significant recovery and growth, with net income rising sharply to 3534 million US dollars. This represents more than a doubling from the prior year and an overall increase compared to 2020. The pattern suggests that while 2021 experienced a dip in profitability, 2022 saw a robust improvement and strong earnings performance.
- Net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT)
- Like net income, NOPAT declined from 2367 million US dollars in 2020 to 1932 million US dollars in 2021, reflecting a decrease of approximately 18%. In 2022, NOPAT rebounded substantially to 3800 million US dollars, surpassing both previous years. This improvement in NOPAT illustrates enhanced operational efficiency and a stronger bottom-line operating profit after accounting for taxes during the most recent year.
Overall, the data presents a trend of initial earnings contraction in 2021, potentially due to external or internal challenges affecting profitability, followed by a marked recovery and growth in 2022. The increase in both net income and NOPAT in 2022 underscores a positive shift in financial performance and operational results. This recovery phase suggests successful strategic or operational adjustments leading to substantial value creation for shareholders.

The financial data for the periods ending December 31, 2020, 2021, and 2022 reveal the following trends in tax-related expenses.
- Income Tax Expense
- The income tax expense shows a decline from US$ 849 million in 2020 to US$ 699 million in 2021, representing a significant decrease. However, in 2022, income tax expense exhibited a slight increase to US$ 708 million. Overall, the expense decreased year-over-year from 2020 to 2022, but the change from 2021 to 2022 indicates a modest upward adjustment.
- Cash Operating Taxes
- The cash operating taxes consistently increased over the three years. Starting from US$ 820 million in 2020, it rose to US$ 844 million in 2021, and further increased to US$ 900 million in 2022. This steady upward trend may indicate higher cash tax obligations or changes in operating taxable income over the observed period.
In summary, while reported income tax expenses decreased initially and then slightly increased, cash taxes paid showed a consistent rise. This divergence may suggest timing differences between recognized tax expense and actual cash tax payments, or changes in tax planning, credits, or provisions affecting the income tax expense recognition.

5 Addition of product warranty provisions.
6 Addition of restructuring reserve.
7 Addition of equity equivalents to equity attributable to common shareowners.
8 Removal of accumulated other comprehensive income.
- Total reported debt & leases
- There is a clear downward trend in total reported debt and leases over the three-year period. The value decreased from $11,030 million at the end of 2020 to $10,353 million in 2021, and further declined to $9,503 million by the end of 2022. This indicates a consistent reduction in the company's leverage or obligations related to debt and leases.
- Equity attributable to common shareowners
- Equity attributable to common shareowners shows a steady increase each year. Starting at $6,252 million in 2020, it rose to $6,767 million in 2021 and further increased to $7,758 million in 2022. This growth suggests improvements in the company's net worth and possibly retained earnings or capital infusion over the period.
- Invested capital
- Invested capital remained relatively stable in 2020 and 2021, with a slight decrease from $19,032 million to $18,835 million. However, there was a notable increase to $19,880 million in 2022. This indicates a modest growth in the total capital deployed in the company’s operations by the end of the third year.

- Economic Profit
- The economic profit exhibited significant volatility over the three-year period. It started with a slight negative value of -4 million US dollars in 2020, dramatically declined to -561 million in 2021, and then sharply increased to a positive 1065 million in 2022. This indicates a considerable improvement in the company's ability to generate profit beyond its cost of capital by the end of 2022 after a substantial downturn in 2021.
- Invested Capital
- The invested capital showed relative stability with modest fluctuations. It was 19,032 million US dollars in 2020, slightly decreased to 18,835 million in 2021, and then rose to 19,880 million in 2022. This suggests a small contraction in the asset base or invested capital during 2021 followed by a moderate expansion in 2022, possibly aligning with the resurgence in economic profit.
- Economic Spread Ratio
- The economic spread ratio mirrored the pattern seen in economic profit, moving from a slight negative margin of -0.02% in 2020 to a more pronounced negative of -2.98% in 2021, before rebounding to a positive 5.36% in 2022. The significant improvement in 2022 reflects enhanced efficiency in generating returns over the company's cost of capital after experiencing a decline in the previous year.
