- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- The net operating profit after taxes exhibited a fluctuating trend over the three-year period. It decreased from $2,367 million in 2020 to $1,932 million in 2021, representing a decline. However, it then sharply increased to $3,800 million in 2022, surpassing the 2020 value significantly.
- Cost of Capital
- The cost of capital showed a steady upward trend, rising from 12.65% in 2020 to 13.44% in 2021, and further to 13.98% in 2022. This indicates an increasing cost associated with financing the invested capital over the period.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital remained relatively stable between 2020 and 2021, decreasing slightly from $19,032 million to $18,835 million. However, it increased in 2022 to $19,880 million, marking a growth in the capital invested during this period.
- Economic Profit
- The economic profit showed a negative trend initially, with a slight loss of $40 million in 2020 worsening substantially to a $600 million loss in 2021. In 2022, however, there was a marked turnaround resulting in a positive economic profit of $1,022 million, indicating improved value creation and efficient capital use.

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.

- 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.

The financial data reveals significant changes in key performance indicators over the three-year period.
- Economic Profit
- The economic profit showed a substantial improvement over the analyzed period. It started with a negative value of -40 million US dollars in 2020, deteriorated sharply to -600 million US dollars in 2021, and then reversed to a positive 1,022 million US dollars by the end of 2022. This indicates a strong recovery and profitability enhancement in the latest year.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital exhibited a relatively stable trend, with a slight decrease from 19,032 million US dollars in 2020 to 18,835 million US dollars in 2021, followed by an increase to 19,880 million US dollars in 2022. The changes suggest modest adjustments in capital investments but generally consistent capital allocation over the period.
- Economic Spread Ratio
- The economic spread ratio experienced notable fluctuations. It was negative at -0.21% in 2020, worsened considerably to -3.19% in 2021, and then improved drastically to a positive 5.14% in 2022. This pattern highlights a period of economic inefficiency followed by a significant turnaround, indicating better returns on invested capital relative to its cost.
Overall, the data reflects an initial period of economic challenge and negative profitability, followed by recovery efforts resulting in a strong positive economic profit and spread by the end of 2022. The relatively stable invested capital base, combined with improvements in economic profit and spread, suggests enhanced operational efficiency and value creation in the most recent fiscal year.

The financial data indicates significant changes in economic profit and related metrics over the three-year period ending December 31, 2022.
- Economic Profit
- There was a considerable shift from negative economic profit in the first two years to a positive figure in the final year. Specifically, economic profit decreased from -40 million US dollars in 2020 to -600 million US dollars in 2021, indicating a worsening economic performance. However, in 2022, economic profit sharply improved to 1,022 million US dollars, reflecting a strong turnaround.
- Net Sales
- Net sales demonstrated growth from 2020 to 2021, increasing from 17,456 million US dollars to 20,613 million US dollars. In 2022, net sales slightly declined to 20,421 million US dollars, showing a marginal decrease but remaining near the peak of the previous year.
- Economic Profit Margin
- The economic profit margin followed a pattern consistent with economic profit. It declined from -0.23% in 2020 to -2.91% in 2021, highlighting deteriorated profitability during that period. In 2022, the margin significantly improved to 5%, indicating a positive shift in profitability relative to sales.
Overall, the data reveals that despite growth in net sales peaking in 2021, the company experienced a decline in economic profitability that year. The subsequent recovery in 2022, with a substantial positive economic profit and margin, suggests effective management actions or market conditions contributing to enhanced profitability despite a slight reduction in sales volume.
