- Net Earnings
- The net earnings demonstrate a fluctuating trend over the reported periods. Initially, there is a decrease from 6,833 million USD in 2020 to 6,315 million USD in 2021, followed by a further decline to 5,732 million USD in 2022. However, a recovery is observed in 2023 with net earnings rising to 6,920 million USD. In 2024, the net earnings again decline to 5,336 million USD. Overall, the net earnings exhibit volatility with no consistent upward or downward pattern.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- The NOPAT values mirror the pattern seen in net earnings, suggesting a close relationship between operating profitability and net results. It starts at 7,202 million USD in 2020 and decreases steadily to 6,442 million USD in 2021 and 5,745 million USD in 2022. Similar to net earnings, NOPAT increases in 2023 to 6,983 million USD, then declines in 2024 to 5,464 million USD. This pattern indicates variations in operational efficiency and profitability impacting after-tax operating profit.

- Federal and foreign income tax expense
- The federal and foreign income tax expense shows a fluctuating downward trend over the five-year period. Starting at 1,347 million US dollars in 2020, it decreased to 1,235 million in 2021 and further declined to 948 million in 2022. There was a slight recovery to 1,178 million in 2023, followed by another decline to 884 million in 2024. Overall, the tax expense decreased notably from 2020 to 2024, indicating potential changes in income levels, tax rates, or tax planning strategies.
- Cash operating taxes
- The cash operating taxes exhibit a clear upward trend for the initial three years, increasing from 1,424 million US dollars in 2020 to a peak of 1,910 million in 2022. Post-2022, there is a declining trend with amounts falling to 1,825 million in 2023 and further to 1,662 million in 2024. Despite the recent decreases, the overall level of cash operating taxes in 2024 remains higher than in 2020, suggesting higher operational tax outflows over the medium term, possibly due to increased taxable income or changes in tax payment schedules.

- Total Reported Debt & Leases
-
The total reported debt and leases demonstrate a consistent upward trend over the analyzed period. Starting at 13,284 million USD in 2020, the amount slightly decreased to 13,076 million USD in 2021 but then increased significantly to 16,764 million USD in 2022. This growth continued in subsequent years, reaching 18,636 million USD in 2023 and further rising to 21,418 million USD by the end of 2024. This pattern indicates an increasing reliance on debt and leases as a component of the company’s financial structure.
- Stockholders’ Equity
-
Stockholders’ equity showed volatility during the reviewed timeframe. The value grew substantially from 6,015 million USD in 2020 to a peak of 10,959 million USD in 2021. However, a decline followed, dropping to 9,266 million USD in 2022. The downward trend persisted in 2023 and 2024, with equity decreasing further to 6,835 million USD and 6,333 million USD respectively. The decrease after 2021 suggests potential challenges in retained earnings or other equity components, affecting the company’s net worth from the shareholders’ perspective.
- Invested Capital
-
Invested capital fluctuated over the period under consideration. It started at 28,054 million USD in 2020, marginally increasing to 28,620 million USD in 2021. This was followed by a decline to 26,603 million USD in 2022, then a modest recovery to 27,427 million USD in 2023 and a subsequent increase to 28,784 million USD in 2024. The invested capital trend overall appears relatively stable with minor fluctuations, indicating ongoing capital investment activities that align with the company’s operational and strategic initiatives.
- Summary Observations
-
Overall, the financial data reveals a notable increase in leverage, with debt and leases rising considerably over the five years, potentially increasing financial risk. Meanwhile, stockholders’ equity exhibited significant growth initially but suffered a steady decline after 2021, which may signal profitability or capital structure concerns. Invested capital remained comparatively stable, suggesting consistent reinvestment in the company’s asset base despite the observed fluctuations. These patterns might reflect strategic decisions affecting financial policy, capital structure, and risk management.
