The data reveals fluctuating financial performance over the observed period, with notable variations in net earnings, total assets, and return on assets (ROA).

Net Earnings (US$ in millions)
Net earnings demonstrated an overall upward trend from 2005 to 2010, rising from 2,398 million to a peak of 8,761 million in 2010. This was followed by a decline in 2011 to 7,074 million and a significant loss in 2012, registering a negative value of -12,650 million. From 2013 onwards, net earnings recovered but remained volatile, fluctuating between approximately 2,496 million and 5,327 million through 2018.
Total Assets (US$ in millions)
Total assets generally increased from 77,317 million in 2005 to a high of 129,517 million in 2011. After 2011, a steep decline is observed in 2012 to 108,768 million, continuing down to 29,010 million in 2016. Post-2016, total assets show a gradual recovery, rising moderately to 34,622 million by 2018.
Return on Assets (ROA %)
ROA closely follows the trend in net earnings, increasing from 3.1% in 2005 to a high of 8.19% in 2007, then remaining relatively stable around 6-7% until 2010. A sharp decline to -11.63% in 2012 coincides with the net earnings loss and asset reduction. Thereafter, ROA improves significantly, achieving the highest value of 15.39% in 2018, indicating enhanced asset efficiency in generating profits.

In summary, the company experienced growth in profitability and asset base through 2010, followed by a period of sharp contraction and negative earnings in 2012. Subsequent years reflect a recovery phase with more efficient use of assets, as evidenced by improving ROA despite lower asset levels compared to the peak in 2011.
