1 2024 Calculation
Area profit margin = 100 × Operating income (loss) ÷ Net revenues
= 100 × 6,938 ÷ 15,357 = 45.18%


Operating Income (Loss)
The operating income shows a fluctuating trend over the observed periods. Starting from a value of 6,409 million USD in 2021, there is a decline to 5,776 million USD in 2022. However, the figure recovers in the subsequent years, rising to 6,169 million USD in 2023 and further to 6,938 million USD in 2024, indicating a positive trajectory towards the end of the series.
Net Revenues
Net revenues exhibit a general upward trend. Beginning at 13,155 million USD in 2021, there is a slight decrease to 12,972 million USD in 2022. Following this, revenues increase significantly to 14,231 million USD in 2023 and continue to grow to 15,357 million USD in 2024. This progression suggests expanding sales or improved pricing power in the later years.
Area Profit Margin
The area profit margin starts high at 48.72% in 2021 but experiences a consistent decline over the next two years, falling to 44.53% in 2022 and further to 43.35% in 2023. There is a slight recovery in 2024, with the margin increasing to 45.18%. Although not reaching the initial level, this indicates some improvement in profitability efficiency at the end of the period.
Summary of Trends
Overall, the financial data reflects an initial dip in both operating income and net revenues in 2022, followed by a strong recovery and growth in 2023 and 2024. The profit margin trend somewhat contrasts this pattern, showing a decreasing profitability ratio through 2022 and 2023, with a modest rebound in 2024. These patterns suggest challenges that were managed effectively in the latter years, leading to improved financial performance and operational efficiency in the most recent period.

1 2024 Calculation
Area profit margin = 100 × Operating income (loss) ÷ Net revenues
= 100 × 3,429 ÷ 11,261 = 30.45%


The financial data for the region encompassing South and Southeast Asia, the Commonwealth of Independent States, the Middle East, and Africa demonstrate several notable trends over the period from 2021 to 2024.

Net Revenues
Net revenues show a consistent upward trend across the reported years. Starting at approximately US$9,858 million in 2021, revenues increased to US$10,467 million in 2022. This growth continued more modestly to US$10,629 million in 2023 and again to US$11,261 million by the end of 2024. The steady increase in net revenues suggests a strengthening market presence or improved sales performance in this geographic area.
Operating Income (Loss)
Operating income figures exhibit more fluctuation. Beginning at US$3,295 million in 2021, operating income rose to a peak of US$3,864 million in 2022 but then declined to US$3,136 million in 2023. In 2024, operating income rebounded slightly to US$3,429 million. The variations imply that while revenue growth was steady, operational profitability faced challenges possibly related to cost pressures or margin compression during the mid-period.
Area Profit Margin
The area profit margin followed a declining pattern after peaking in 2022. At 33.42% in 2021, the margin increased further to 36.92% in 2022, reflecting strong profitability relative to revenue. However, it then decreased sharply to 29.5% in 2023 and improved marginally to 30.45% in 2024. The reduction in profit margin despite rising revenues points to increased costs or other operational inefficiencies affecting profitability.

Overall, the region experienced revenue growth coupled with volatile profitability. The highest operating income and profit margin occurred in 2022, indicating particularly favorable conditions that year. Subsequent declines in profitability metrics suggest emerging challenges in cost management or market conditions, though a partial recovery was noted by the end of 2024.

1 2024 Calculation
Area profit margin = 100 × Operating income (loss) ÷ Net revenues
= 100 × 2,878 ÷ 6,393 = 45.02%


The financial performance of the East Asia, Australia, and PMI Duty Free Region (EA, AU & PMI DF) over the analyzed period demonstrates notable fluctuations and recent improvement across several key metrics.

Operating Income (Loss)
The operating income shows variability over the years from 2021 to 2024. It decreased from 2,836 million US dollars in 2021 to 2,424 million in 2022, indicating a decline in profitability during that period. However, a recovery trend is visible afterward, with operating income increasing to 2,539 million in 2023 and further rising to 2,878 million in 2024, surpassing the 2021 level.
Net Revenues
Net revenues in the region experienced a downward trend initially, falling from 6,448 million US dollars in 2021 to 5,936 million in 2022. Following this decline, revenues began to recover gradually, reaching 6,201 million in 2023 and nearly returning to the 2021 figure at 6,393 million in 2024. This suggests a period of contraction followed by a steady rebound in sales activity within the region.
Area Profit Margin
The area profit margin percentage exhibits a similar pattern to the other financial indicators. It declined from 43.98% in 2021 to 40.84% in 2022, reflecting decreased profitability efficiency. Subsequently, this margin slightly increased to 40.95% in 2023, followed by a more substantial improvement to 45.02% in 2024. The margin in 2024 not only recovered but exceeded the margin level reported in 2021, indicating enhanced profitability and operational effectiveness in the region.

In summary, the data reflects a challenging year in 2022 marked by declines in both revenue and profitability metrics. Nevertheless, the subsequent years show a positive recovery trend, culminating in 2024 with operating income and profit margins that surpass previous peak values, accompanied by a near return to earlier revenue levels. This suggests effective management responses and potential market recovery or growth within the East Asia, Australia, and PMI Duty Free Region.

1 2024 Calculation
Area profit margin = 100 × Operating income (loss) ÷ Net revenues
= 100 × 548 ÷ 4,534 = 12.09%


The financial data for the Americas Region demonstrate notable trends across the annual periods from 2020 through 2024. The analysis reveals several key insights into the performance metrics of operating income, net revenues, and area profit margin.

Operating Income (Loss)
Operating income displayed growth from 487 million USD in 2021 to a peak of 582 million USD in 2023. However, this was followed by a decline to 548 million USD in 2024, indicating some volatility in operating profitability after an initial upward trend. The missing value for 2020 limits the ability to analyze the full trend from the start of the dataset.
Net Revenues
Net revenues show a strong upward trajectory throughout the period. From 1843 million USD in 2021, revenues increased to 2116 million USD in 2022 and surged significantly to 3807 million USD in 2023, continuing to rise sharply to 4534 million USD in 2024. This consistent and accelerated growth in revenues contrasts with the less steady trend observed in operating income.
Area Profit Margin
The area profit margin experienced a continuous decline over the period covered. Starting from 26.42% in 2021, it dropped to 20.79% in 2022, then further decreased to 15.29% in 2023, and declined even more significantly to 12.09% in 2024. This downward trend indicates diminishing profitability relative to revenues despite the increase in net revenues, suggesting rising costs or reduced operational efficiency impacting margins.

In summary, while net revenues in the Americas Region have exhibited strong growth throughout the observed period, operating income has shown variability with a slight decrease in the latest year. More strikingly, the area profit margin has steadily deteriorated, signaling potential challenges in managing costs or achieving margin improvements despite the expanding top-line revenue. These patterns indicate a need for focused attention on cost control and margin management to sustain profitability amid increasing revenue levels.

1 2024 Calculation
Area profit margin = 100 × Operating income (loss) ÷ Net revenues
= 100 × -391 ÷ 333 = -117.42%


Net Revenues
Net revenues in the Wellness and Healthcare segment have exhibited a consistent upward trend from 2021 through 2024. Starting at 101 million USD in 2021, revenues increased to 271 million USD in 2022, then rose further to 306 million USD in 2023, and reached 333 million USD in 2024. This steady growth indicates an expanding market presence or increased sales within this geographic area.
Operating Income (Loss)
Operating income has demonstrated a persistent negative performance throughout the period with significant deterioration in 2023. In 2021, the area reported a loss of 52 million USD, which worsened to a 258 million USD loss in 2022. The loss expanded sharply to 870 million USD in 2023, followed by a partial recovery to a 391 million USD loss in 2024. Despite the recent reduction in losses, the segment continues to operate at a substantial deficit.
Area Profit Margin
The area profit margin has mirrored the pattern of operating income losses, remaining deeply negative over all years reported. The margin was -51.49% in 2021, declined further to -95.2% in 2022, and worsened significantly to -284.31% in 2023. In 2024, the margin improved but remained negative at -117.42%. This deep negative margin indicates high costs or inefficiencies relative to revenues.
Overall Insights
While net revenues have shown consistent growth, operating losses and profit margins indicate ongoing challenges in managing costs or achieving profitability in the Wellness and Healthcare segment. The substantial loss peak in 2023 suggests a period of heightened expenses or one-time charges. Although there was some improvement in 2024, profitability remains elusive. The data highlights a need for strategic focus on cost control and operational efficiency to convert revenue growth into sustainable profitability.

The geographic area Return on Assets (ROA) data reveals varying performance trends across different regions over the period from December 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024, with some regions demonstrating significant fluctuations.

Europe Region
The ROA in the Europe Region experienced an increase from 130.32% in 2021 to a peak of 111.53% in 2022, followed by a slight decline to 108.29% in 2023. However, the value rose again to 125.23% in 2024, indicating a relatively strong but somewhat volatile performance with a notable rebound at the end of the period.
South and Southeast Asia, Commonwealth of Independent States, Middle East and Africa Region (SSEA, CIS & MEA)
This region demonstrated a pronounced degree of volatility. The ROA increased sharply from 151.08% in 2021 to 188.76% in 2022 but then dropped to 142.74% in 2023 before recovering to 158.75% in 2024. The fluctuations suggest a dynamic market environment with significant changes in asset profitability over the years.
East Asia, Australia, and PMI Duty Free Region (EA, AU & PMI DF)
The ROA trend in this region showed consistent and steep growth, starting from 382.21% in 2021 and slightly decreasing to 359.11% in 2022. This was followed by a marked increase to 527.86% in 2023 and continued upward to a robust 761.38% in 2024. This pattern indicates substantial improvement in asset efficiency and profitability in this geographic division, markedly outperforming other regions.
Americas Region
The Americas Region displayed a declining ROA trend overall. Having an ROA of 73.12% in 2021, it fell sharply to 34.32% in 2022, improved marginally to 44.43% in 2023 but then decreased again to 35.15% in 2024. This pattern highlights challenges in maintaining asset profitability in the Americas over the observed period.
Wellness and Healthcare
There is no available data for this category across all periods, indicating either a lack of reporting or absence of measurable ROA figures for this segment.

In summary, the East Asia, Australia, and PMI Duty Free Region exhibited the strongest and most consistent growth in ROA, suggesting a significant enhancement in operational efficiency or asset utilization.

= 100 × 6,938 ÷ 5,540 = 125.23%


Operating Income (Loss)
The operating income in the Europe Region experienced fluctuations between 2021 and 2024. Starting from 6,409 million US dollars in 2021, it decreased to 5,776 million in 2022, followed by a recovery to 6,169 million in 2023, and further increased to 6,938 million in 2024. This indicates an overall upward trend after an initial decline, suggesting improving operational performance in the latter years.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets showed steady growth from 4,918 million US dollars in 2021 to 5,179 million in 2022 and further to 5,697 million in 2023, indicating ongoing investment or acquisition of long-term assets. However, there was a slight decline to 5,540 million in 2024, which may reflect asset disposals, depreciation, or revaluation adjustments.
Area Return on Assets (ROA)
The Area ROA began at a high level of 130.32% in 2021, then declined to 111.53% in 2022 and further to 108.29% in 2023, indicating a decrease in efficiency or profitability relative to the asset base during these years. However, in 2024, ROA increased significantly to 125.23%, suggesting enhanced utilization of assets or improved profit margins in the most recent period.

The financial data for the East Asia, Australia, and PMI Duty Free Region demonstrates notable trends over the period from 2020 to 2024. The analysis focuses on operating income, long-lived assets, and area return on assets (ROA).

Operating Income (Loss)
Operating income has exhibited fluctuations across the observed years. Starting from a missing value in 2020, it rose to 2,836 million US dollars in 2021, then decreased to 2,424 million US dollars in 2022. Subsequently, operating income increased again to 2,539 million US dollars in 2023 and reached 2,878 million US dollars by 2024. This pattern indicates some volatility, with a general trend toward recovery and growth after the dip in 2022.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets have shown a consistent downward trend throughout the period. From 742 million US dollars in 2021, there was a decline to 675 million in 2022, followed by a sharper decrease to 481 million in 2023 and further down to 378 million in 2024. This significant reduction suggests possible divestitures, asset disposals, or depreciation outpacing asset additions in the region.
Area Return on Assets (ROA)
Area ROA experienced substantial growth, moving from 382.21% in 2021 to 359.11% in 2022, which is a slight decline, and then increasing sharply to 527.86% in 2023, followed by an even more pronounced increase to 761.38% in 2024. The rising ROA indicates improved efficiency and profitability relative to the asset base, reflecting enhanced operational performance despite the declining asset base.

In summary, the region has seen a mixed performance in operating income with a temporary decline but eventual growth by 2024. Meanwhile, the asset base has contracted notably, and this asset reduction correlates with significantly improved return on assets ratios, demonstrating more effective asset utilization and stronger profitability over time.

The financial data for the Americas Region from 2020 through 2024 reveals several noteworthy trends across key metrics.

Operating Income
Operating income shows fluctuations throughout the five-year period. It increased from 487 million USD in 2021 to 582 million USD in 2023, indicating a positive growth trajectory during these years. However, there was a slight decline to 548 million USD in 2024, suggesting a modest downturn after the peak in 2023. The absence of data for 2020 limits the ability to assess the initial trend prior to 2021.
Long-Lived Assets
The value of long-lived assets demonstrates a strong upward trend over the period. After an initial value of 666 million USD in 2021, the assets nearly doubled to 1282 million USD in 2022 and continued to increase steadily to reach 1559 million USD by 2024. This growth reflects ongoing capital investments or asset acquisitions, which could support the company's operational capacity or strategic initiatives in the Americas region.
Area Return on Assets (ROA)
The Area ROA exhibits significant variability. Following a high of 73.12% in 2021, it decreased sharply to 34.32% in 2022. A partial recovery occurred in 2023, with ROA increasing to 44.43%, before declining again to 35.15% in 2024. This volatility may reflect fluctuating profitability relative to asset base changes and operational efficiency within the region.

Overall, the region experienced growth in asset holdings with mixed results in profitability and efficiency measures. The increase in long-lived assets suggests strategic investment, yet the inconsistent ROA and slight decline in operating income in the latter years point to challenges in fully capitalizing on these assets to enhance financial returns consistently.

The financial data for the East Asia, Australia, and PMI Duty Free Region over the recent five-year period indicates several notable trends regarding net revenues, long-lived assets, and area asset turnover.

Net Revenues
Net revenues have demonstrated a fluctuating but overall moderately positive trend starting at 6,448 million US dollars in 2021, declining to 5,936 million in 2022, and subsequently recovering to 6,201 million in 2023 and further increasing to 6,393 million in 2024. This pattern suggests a temporary decline in revenue followed by a recovery phase, nearing but not exceeding the 2021 figure by the end of the period.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets have consistently decreased throughout the period, starting at 742 million US dollars in 2021 and dropping year-over-year to 378 million by 2024. This steady decline may indicate asset disposals, reduced capital investment, or revaluation adjustments, impacting the asset base substantially over the timeframe.
Area Asset Turnover
The area asset turnover ratio reveals a significant upward trend, rising from 8.69 in 2021 to 16.91 in 2024. This sharp increase suggests improved efficiency in utilizing the asset base to generate revenues. Given the simultaneous reduction in long-lived assets, the rising turnover ratio indicates enhanced operational productivity or leaner asset management contributing to generating higher revenues per unit of asset value.

In summary, the region experienced a dip and subsequent recovery in net revenues, a notable reduction in the asset base, and significant gains in asset utilization efficiency. The combination of declining asset values and increasing asset turnover points to strategic adjustments in asset management, potentially optimizing resource allocation to sustain revenue growth despite a smaller asset footprint.

This suggests ongoing investment in durable operational resources.
Area Asset Turnover Ratio
The area asset turnover ratio, which measures revenue generated per unit of asset value, shows some variability. It declined from 2.77 in 2021 to 1.65 in 2022, indicating lower efficiency in asset utilization during that year despite asset growth. However, in 2023 the ratio rebounded significantly to 2.91 and remained stable at that level in 2024. This improvement suggests enhanced operational efficiency and better revenue generation relative to assets in recent years.
Overall Insights
Collectively, these metrics reveal a strong expansion in net revenues coupled with sustained investment in long-lived assets within the Americas region. The initial dip in asset turnover in 2022 may reflect a period of capital investment or restructuring, which was followed by a recovery in efficiency by 2023. The stabilization of asset turnover at a higher level in 2023 and 2024 indicates successful integration of new assets into productive operations. This overall positive trend signals strengthening financial performance and efficient asset management in the region.

1 2024 Calculation
Area capital expenditures to depreciation = Capital expenditures ÷ Depreciation and amortization expense
= 22 ÷ 173 = 0.13


The capital expenditures for the geographic area exhibited variability over the analyzed periods. Starting from 36 million US dollars in 2021, the expenditures decreased to 25 million in 2022, rose again to 38 million in 2023, and declined to 22 million in 2024. This pattern suggests fluctuations in investment levels with no consistent upward or downward trend.

Depreciation and amortization expenses showed relative stability with minor fluctuations. The expense slightly decreased from 168 million in 2021 to 167 million in 2022, followed by a more pronounced reduction to 144 million in 2023. However, it increased again to 173 million in 2024, surpassing the 2021 level. This indicates periodic variations in asset depreciation, possibly related to changes in asset base or accounting estimates.

The ratio of area capital expenditures to depreciation also fluctuated over the period. Beginning at 0.21 in 2021, it declined to 0.15 in 2022, rose significantly to 0.26 in 2023, and then fell again to 0.13 in 2024. These changes indicate that investment in capital assets relative to the depreciation expense was inconsistent, with the highest reinvestment relative to depreciation occurring in 2023 and the lowest in 2024.

Overall, the data reveal variability in capital spending and depreciation trends over the five-year span, with no clear long-term directional pattern but short-term fluctuations that may reflect operational or strategic adjustments within the geographic area.

1 2024 Calculation
Area capital expenditures to depreciation = Capital expenditures ÷ Depreciation and amortization expense
= 280 ÷ 748 = 0.37


The analysis of the financial data for the Americas region reveals several noteworthy trends over the five-year period from 2020 to 2024. The data focuses on capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization expense, and the ratio between area capital expenditures to depreciation.

Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures exhibit a fluctuating pattern. Starting from an unreported value in 2020, there is a moderate increase from 54 million USD in 2021 to 92 million USD in 2022. This is followed by a decline to 57 million USD in 2023, and a significant rise to 280 million USD in 2024. The surge in 2024 suggests a substantial investment or expansion effort in the Americas region during this period.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
This expense shows a consistent and sharp upward trend. Beginning at 71 million USD in 2021, it increases steadily to 97 million USD in 2022, then experiences large incremental jumps to 387 million USD in 2023 and further to 748 million USD in 2024. The marked increase in depreciation and amortization expenses in the last two years likely reflects higher asset base capitalization or revaluation.
Area Capital Expenditures to Depreciation Ratio
The ratio of capital expenditures to depreciation indicates how capital investments compare relative to the asset depreciation over time. This ratio declines substantially from 0.76 in 2021 to 0.15 in 2023, before slightly recovering to 0.37 in 2024. The initial descent suggests that depreciation is growing faster than capital expenditures, indicating that asset consumption or write-off rates outpace investments. However, the slight increase in 2024 ratio corresponds with the significant hike in capital expenditures, suggesting an attempt to balance or replenish the asset base against depreciation trends.

Overall, the data portrays a dynamic investment environment with a substantial increase in both capital expenditures and depreciation in recent years. The drastic rise in depreciation expenses relative to capital expenditures in the earlier part of the period flags higher asset aging or adoption of new accounting standards, while the sharp capital expenditure in 2024 indicates renewed investment activity aimed at countering this depreciation acceleration.

1 2024 Calculation
Area capital expenditures to depreciation = Capital expenditures ÷ Depreciation and amortization expense
= 53 ÷ 70 = 0.76


Capital Expenditures
The capital expenditures show an overall increasing trend over the observed period. Starting at 28 million US dollars in 2021, capital expenditures rose to 45 million in 2022, subsequently decreased to 34 million in 2023, and then increased again significantly to 53 million in 2024. This fluctuation suggests varying investment levels in this segment, with a notable recovery in investment in the latest period.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased sharply from 34 million US dollars in 2021 to a peak of 85 million in 2022. This level was largely maintained in 2023, with a slight decrease to 84 million, followed by a more pronounced decline to 70 million in 2024. This pattern indicates an initial spike in asset consumption or amortization, followed by gradual reductions, which may correspond to changes in asset base or amortization schedules.
Area Capital Expenditures to Depreciation Ratio
The ratio of capital expenditures to depreciation experienced a decline from 0.82 in 2021 to 0.53 in 2022, further dropping to a low of 0.4 in 2023. This indicates that, relative to depreciation and amortization, new investments were becoming less aggressive in these years. However, in 2024, the ratio rebounded substantially to 0.76, signaling renewed investment intensity relative to asset depreciation in that year.
Overall Insights
The data reveals a cyclical investment pattern in the wellness and healthcare area. After an initial increase in both capital expenditures and depreciation/amortization, the company reduced investments relative to asset depreciation in 2022 and 2023. The subsequent increase in capital expenditures and ratio in 2024 may reflect strategic renewed commitment to asset growth or modernization. Meanwhile, the reduction in depreciation expenses towards 2024 suggests a possible completion or write-down of earlier investments or changes in asset utilization.
