- Cash Provided by Operating Activities
- The cash generated from operating activities exhibited considerable fluctuations over the analyzed period. Starting at 5,097 million USD in 2020, it experienced a significant increase to 10,135 million USD by 2021, nearly doubling the previous year's figure. However, following this peak, the cash flow showed a downward trend, declining consistently from 9,832 million USD in 2022 to 7,036 million USD in 2025. This suggests a reduction in cash generation efficiency or operational challenges in recent years, despite the strong performance in 2021.
- Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE)
- The free cash flow to equity shows variability but with less volatility compared to operating cash flow. It started at 3,237 million USD in 2020, dropped sharply to 2,145 million USD in 2021, recovered moderately to 2,908 million USD in 2022, then experienced a gradual decrease and fluctuation thereafter, closing at 2,824 million USD in 2025. This pattern indicates a somewhat unstable distribution of cash available to equity holders, with potential impacts from capital expenditures, debt repayments, or working capital changes.
- Overall Trends and Insights
- The data reveals a peak in cash from operating activities in 2021, followed by a gradual decline, which may reflect market or operational conditions affecting cash generation ability. Meanwhile, free cash flow to equity is less correlated with the operating cash, suggesting that investments, financing activities, or other cash flows influence the cash available to shareholders. The declining operating cash might pose concerns for sustained free cash flows unless managed by other financial activities. Monitoring the factors driving these cash flows could provide insights into operational efficiency and capital management strategies.

The data presents financial metrics over a six-year period, with a focus on share price, free cash flow to equity (FCFE) per share, and the price to FCFE ratio (P/FCFE).
- Share Price
- The share price exhibited significant fluctuations throughout the period. Starting at $164.13 in 2020, it experienced a notable increase in 2021, reaching $294.82. This was followed by a decline to $217.98 in 2022. Subsequently, the share price increased again in 2023 and 2024, peaking at $305.02 in 2024 before dropping to $225.73 in 2025. Overall, the share price showed volatility with two major peaks during 2021 and 2024.
- Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) per Share
- The FCFE per share displayed moderate variability. It began at $12.36 in 2020 and declined to its lowest point of $8.02 in 2021. Afterward, it increased to $11.19 in 2022 but slightly decreased to $10.04 in 2023. The metric then rose again to $12.23 in 2024 and marginally declined to $11.97 in 2025. This pattern suggests some instability in free cash flow generation per share, although the values generally returned close to the initial level by the end of the period.
- Price to FCFE Ratio (P/FCFE)
- The P/FCFE ratio exhibited notable fluctuations and generally reflected the inverse movement of FCFE relative to the share price. Starting at 13.28 in 2020, it surged to a high of 36.75 in 2021, coinciding with the lowest FCFE and the highest share price during that year, indicating a relatively expensive valuation on a cash flow basis. The ratio then decreased to 19.48 in 2022, increased again to 25.37 in 2023, remained stable at 24.93 in 2024, and finally declined to 18.86 in 2025. This trend suggests fluctuating investor sentiment and valuation multiples relative to free cash flow over the analyzed years.
