1 US$ in millions
- Total Debt
- The total debt exhibited a generally increasing trend over the analyzed period, starting at 715 million US dollars in mid-2005 and rising substantially to 8,114 million US dollars by mid-2023. There were notable increases around 2015 to 2017 and again from 2019 onward, with a significant jump occurring in 2020. Between 2005 and 2010, debt fluctuated but remained under 1,500 million US dollars, then escalated significantly in the subsequent years.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity demonstrated a fluctuating yet overall upward pattern from 1,693 million US dollars in mid-2005 to a peak of 6,057 million US dollars in 2021, before slightly declining to approximately 5,585 million US dollars by mid-2023. The equity values showed growth particularly pronounced during the periods 2009 to 2014 and 2015 to 2018, indicating periods of capital accumulation or retained earnings expansion. Some contractions are visible post-2018.
- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio showed considerable variability over this timeframe. Initially, it started at a moderate 0.42 in 2005, dropping to a low of 0.32 in 2006, followed by a sharp increase to as high as 0.91 in 2007. For much of the period up to 2014, the ratio remained below 0.5, indicating more conservative leverage. However, from 2015 onward, the ratio increased notably, peaking at 1.56 in 2020, reflecting a surge in leverage relative to equity. The ratio remained elevated, above 0.9, through to 2023, suggesting a strategic shift toward higher debt reliance on the company’s capital structure in recent years.
- Overall Analysis
- The company has increased its leverage over the years, with total debt growing more rapidly than stockholders’ equity, especially in the period following 2015. The elevated debt-to-equity ratio in recent years signals a more aggressive capital structure approach, potentially to finance growth, acquisitions, or other strategic initiatives. Despite fluctuations, equity has generally trended upward, supporting the company's asset base and providing some buffer against financial risk. The trends indicate a balancing act between capital expansion and debt management, with current levels of leverage higher than in the earlier years of the dataset.
