The financial data analysis reveals several significant trends related to net income, equity, and return on equity (ROE) over the examined periods.

Net Income
Net income attributable to the company shows considerable variability throughout the years. From an initial value of 980 million USD, net income increased steadily and reached a peak of 1,807 million USD in 2013. However, a sharp decline followed, dropping to 632 million USD in 2014. After this low point, the net income gradually recovered, peaking again at 1,488 million USD in 2021, before trending downward to 951 million USD by the end of 2023. This pattern indicates periods of significant volatility with occasional strong performance interspersed with notable declines.
Total Equity
Total equity reflects a fluctuating but generally upward trend over the examined timeframe. Starting at 2,284 million USD, equity decreased in several instances, such as in 2006 and 2008, with a notable dip to 1,448 million USD in 2008. Despite these setbacks, equity rose sharply reaching a high of 3,941 million USD in 2022 before dropping back to 3,175 million USD in 2023. The fluctuating equity levels suggest the company experienced capital adjustments or changes in retained earnings, alongside possible market valuation impacts.
Return on Equity (ROE)
ROE shows an overall high level of profitability in terms of equity returns but with pronounced volatility. The trend started strongly at 42.93%, reaching an outstanding peak of 79.28% in 2008. Following this peak, a marked decline occurred, with ROE dropping to 22.66% in 2014, reflecting diminished profitability relative to equity. Subsequently, ROE improved again to around 57.37% in 2017, before declining gradually to 29.95% in 2023. These fluctuations in ROE correspond to the changes observed in net income and equity, indicating shifting efficiency in generating earnings from shareholder investment.

Overall, the data presents a pattern of cyclical financial performance with periods of strong profitability and equity growth alternating with phases of decline. The most notable features include the high peak of ROE in 2008 coincident with a low equity base and volatile net income, as well as a recovery phase in the late 2010s before a recent downward trend in profitability and equity levels toward 2023. This analysis suggests the company has faced challenges in maintaining consistent growth but has demonstrated resilience in recovering from downturns.
