Common Equity (Market Value)
The common equity market value exhibited an overall upward trend from 2018 to 2021, increasing from 57,474 million USD in 2018 to a peak of 66,799 million USD in 2020. However, in 2022, there was a noticeable decline to 60,427 million USD, reversing the previous growth trend.
Total Equity
Total equity followed a similar pattern as the common equity market value, rising steadily from 57,773 million USD in 2018 to a peak of 67,157 million USD in 2020. Afterward, it slightly decreased in 2021 to 66,887 million USD and saw a more pronounced reduction to 60,832 million USD in 2022.
Total Equity and Debt
Total equity and debt increased consistently from 64,139 million USD in 2018 to a high of 74,758 million USD in 2020. This was followed by a slight drop to 74,132 million USD in 2021 and a more significant decrease to 69,598 million USD in 2022, indicating a reduction in the overall capital base.
Enterprise Value (EV)
The enterprise value mirrored the trend observed in total equity and debt, rising from 63,413 million USD in 2018 to 73,870 million USD in 2020. It then marginally declined to 73,300 million USD in 2021 and further declined to 68,823 million USD in 2022. This suggests a contraction in the market's valuation of the company in the most recent year.
General Observations
Across all financial metrics, the period from 2018 to 2020 was characterized by growth, reaching peak values in 2020. Beginning in 2021 and continuing in 2022, a consistent downward trend is evident in equity, debt, and valuation figures, indicating potential challenges or market corrections affecting the company. The decline in enterprise value and equity measures suggests a reduction in investor confidence or possible external factors impacting financial performance during this latter period.
