1 US$ in millions
The financial data reveals distinct trends in net income, shareholders’ equity, and return on equity (ROE) over the 21-year period.
- Net Income
- Net income generally increased from 2005 through 2017, rising from $1,212 million to a peak of $4,240 million, indicating steady growth in profitability. However, in 2018, there was a substantial decline to $1,933 million, followed by a recovery and further increase to $5,727 million in 2021. After peaking, net income experienced volatility with decreases in subsequent years, notably dropping to $3,219 million in 2025. This pattern suggests periods of significant financial disruption and recovery.
- Shareholders’ Equity
- Shareholders’ equity exhibited continuous growth from $5,644 million in 2005 to a peak of $15,281 million in 2022. Despite this long-term upward trajectory, there were intermittent declines, especially between 2013 and 2018, where equity fell from $11,156 million to $9,812 million, and again from 2022 onwards, decreasing to $13,213 million in 2025. These fluctuations may reflect changes in retained earnings, share repurchases, or other equity-related activities impacting the company's capital base.
- Return on Equity (ROE)
- ROE remained relatively stable and high from 2005 to 2017, fluctuating mostly between 20% and 34%, peaking at 34.17% in 2017. In 2018, ROE dropped sharply to 19.7%, coinciding with the decline in net income and shareholders’ equity observed the same year. Subsequently, ROE experienced strong rebounds, reaching a high of 44.86% in 2021, indicating increased efficiency in generating profits from equity. However, it showed a downward trend in the most recent years to 24.36% in 2025, suggesting reduced profitability relative to equity at that time.
Overall, the data indicates a pattern of long-term growth in key financial metrics, punctuated by notable volatility beginning in 2018. The fluctuations in net income and ROE particularly highlight periods of operational or market challenges followed by recovery phases. The shareholders’ equity growth reflects an expanding capital base with some contractions aligned with profitability declines and broader financial dynamics.
