The analysis of investment activity ratios indicates a general decline in asset and equity utilization efficiency over the period from April 2022 to March 2026, followed by a phase of stabilization.

Net Fixed Asset Turnover
A consistent downward trend is observed in the net fixed asset turnover ratio. Starting at 5.07 in early 2022, the ratio peaked at 5.29 in October 2022 before entering a steady decline. By 2024, the ratio stabilized within a narrow band between 4.28 and 4.38, eventually settling at 4.14 by March 2026. This trajectory suggests a reduction in the revenue generated per unit of net fixed assets over the long term.
Total Asset Turnover
Total asset turnover exhibited moderate volatility with an overall slight downward trajectory. The ratio reached a high of 0.55 in October 2022 and experienced a low of 0.46 in December 2024. Toward the conclusion of the analyzed period, the ratio remained relatively flat, hovering between 0.47 and 0.48, reflecting a stable but lower level of overall asset efficiency compared to the 2022 baseline.
Equity Turnover
Equity turnover followed a pattern of gradual compression. After reaching a peak of 1.30 in April 2023, the ratio trended downward to a minimum of 1.14 in December 2024. A marginal recovery is noted throughout 2025 and early 2026, with the ratio ascending to 1.19 by March 2026. This indicates that while equity efficiency declined during the mid-period, a slight recovery in utilization has occurred recently.

Collectively, the synchronized decline across these three metrics suggests a broader trend of slowing asset productivity relative to revenue. The convergence of these ratios toward a stable baseline in 2025 and 2026 implies that the operational efficiency of long-term investments has reached a new, lower equilibrium.

An analysis of the investment activity ratios reveals a consistent decline in asset efficiency over the observed period from April 2022 through March 2026. The net fixed asset turnover ratio, which measures the effectiveness of property, plant, and equipment in generating revenue, transitioned from a peak of 5.29 in October 2022 to a stabilized lower range between 4.07 and 4.14 by the end of the period.

Revenue Performance
Sales to customers exhibited significant volatility. Initial strengths in 2022, with quarterly revenues reaching approximately 24 billion USD, were followed by a contraction in 2023, where values dipped to as low as 20.89 billion USD. While a recovery phase is evident through 2024 and 2025, culminating in a peak of 24.56 billion USD in December 2025, the recovery did not return the turnover ratio to its 2022 levels.
Fixed Asset Expansion
Net property, plant, and equipment showed a steady upward trajectory. Starting at 18.70 billion USD in April 2022, the asset base expanded to 23.27 billion USD by March 2026. This growth indicates a sustained increase in long-term capital investment in infrastructure and equipment.
Net Fixed Asset Turnover Trend
The turnover ratio experienced a sharp decline between October 2022 (5.29) and December 2023 (4.28). This downward movement suggests that the growth in the fixed asset base outpaced the growth in sales. Throughout 2024 and 2025, the ratio remained largely stagnant, oscillating narrowly between 4.07 and 4.38, indicating a period of diminishing marginal returns on fixed asset investments.

The overall trend points to a reduction in the productivity of fixed assets. Despite the eventual recovery in quarterly sales, the expanded asset base has resulted in a lower turnover ratio, suggesting that the company is generating less revenue per dollar of net fixed assets than it did in the 2022 fiscal period.

The total asset turnover ratio exhibits a period of moderate volatility followed by a stabilization phase, reflecting shifts in both revenue generation and the scale of the asset base. While the ratio peaked at 0.55 in October 2022, it generally trended downward or remained stagnant throughout the subsequent quarters, settling into a range between 0.46 and 0.50 by early 2026.

Revenue Performance Trends
Sales to customers remained relatively stable during 2022, averaging approximately 23.7 billion US$. A noticeable decline occurred throughout 2023, with quarterly figures dropping to a low of 20.89 billion US$ in April 2023. However, a recovery trend emerged starting in 2024, with sales climbing back toward 24.56 billion US$ by September 2025, before leveling off at 24.06 billion US$ in March 2026.
Asset Base Fluctuations
The total asset base showed significant movement, peaking at 195.97 billion US$ in April 2023 before experiencing a sharp contraction to 166.06 billion US$ by October 2023. Following this decline, the asset base entered a steady growth phase, expanding consistently from late 2023 through early 2026, eventually reaching a high of 200.89 billion US$.
Asset Turnover Analysis
The efficiency of asset utilization fluctuated in response to the divergent movements of sales and total assets. A temporary increase in the turnover ratio to 0.53 in October 2023 was driven primarily by the substantial reduction in total assets rather than an increase in sales. From late 2023 through March 2026, the ratio remained suppressed between 0.46 and 0.49. This suggests that the growth in the asset base outpaced the growth in sales during this period, resulting in a slight decline in overall asset productivity.

The analysis of the period from April 2022 to March 2026 reveals a shifting relationship between revenue generation and the equity base. While sales exhibited a period of contraction followed by recovery, shareholders' equity underwent significant expansion in the latter half of the observed timeframe, leading to a compression in the equity turnover ratio.

Revenue Trends
Sales to customers remained relatively stable throughout 2022, averaging approximately US$ 23.7 billion per quarter. A noticeable decline occurred during 2023, with quarterly figures dropping to a low of US$ 20.89 billion in April 2023. However, a consistent recovery trend emerged throughout 2024 and 2025, with sales ascending to a peak of US$ 24.56 billion by December 2025, before settling at US$ 24.06 billion in March 2026.
Shareholders' Equity Dynamics
Total shareholders' equity experienced fluctuations between 2022 and 2023, reaching a periodic low of US$ 68.77 billion by December 31, 2023. Starting in late 2024, there was a marked increase in the equity base, rising from US$ 71.49 billion in September 2024 to a high of US$ 81.54 billion in September 2025. This upward trajectory remained largely intact into the first quarter of 2026, ending at US$ 81.19 billion.
Equity Turnover Performance
The equity turnover ratio remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 1.20 and 1.30 from April 2022 through December 2024. A structural shift is observed starting December 29, 2024, where the ratio declined to a lower range of 1.14 to 1.16 during 2025. This decrease is primarily attributable to the rapid expansion of the equity base outpacing the growth in sales. A slight recovery in efficiency was noted by March 2026, with the ratio increasing to 1.19.
