The financial data reveals several noteworthy trends over the analyzed years. Net income attributable to the company demonstrated a general upward trajectory with some fluctuations. From 2005 to 2007, net income increased significantly from 308 million USD to 834 million USD. Despite a dip in 2008 to 647 million USD, the figure rebounded strongly in the subsequent years, reaching a peak of 3367 million USD in 2020. However, after this peak, net income exhibited a declining pattern, falling to 2489 million USD by 2023.

Total assets followed a consistent growth trend over the period. Starting at 6870 million USD in 2005, total assets expanded substantially almost every year, culminating in 47065 million USD by 2023. This indicates continuous asset accumulation and suggests expansion or increased investment activities. Notably, there was a slight drop observed in 2018 before assets resumed growth, which may warrant further investigation.

The return on assets (ROA) percentage showed considerable variability. It ranged from a low of 2.42% in 2016 to a high of 9.63% in 2020, indicating periods of varying efficiency in utilizing assets to generate net income. ROA generally trended upwards until 2020, which aligns with the peak in net income during that year. Following 2020, ROA declined steadily to 5.29% by 2023, reflecting reduced profitability relative to asset base.

Net Income
Exhibited substantial growth with fluctuations, peaking in 2020 before declining in recent years.
Total Assets
Consistently increased, nearly septupling over the period, indicating strong asset growth and investment.
Return on Assets (ROA)
Varied significantly, peaking in 2020, with a downward trend thereafter, signaling changing asset utilization efficiency.

In summary, the company demonstrated robust growth in assets and net income until around 2020, followed by a period of decreasing profitability metrics. The data suggests a need to examine post-2020 factors influencing the decline in returns despite continued asset expansion.
