1 US$ in millions


The long-term debt, including the current portion, exhibits significant fluctuations over the observed period. Initially, it decreased from 2,058 million USD in 2005 to 1,497 million USD in 2006, followed by a sharp increase reaching a peak of 3,721 million USD in 2012. Subsequent years saw a decline until 2014, after which the debt rose again, culminating in a substantial increase to 6,932 million USD in 2021. The last two years recorded a reduction, ending at 4,835 million USD in 2023.

Equity has generally demonstrated an upward trend throughout the years. It rose steadily from 2,217 million USD in 2005 to 12,119 million USD in 2019, with intermittent periods of more accelerated growth, particularly between 2010 and 2014. After a slight downturn in 2020, equity surged dramatically in 2021 to 22,837 million USD and remained relatively stable thereafter, closing at 23,171 million USD in 2023.

The debt to equity ratio shows a declining trend over the period, indicating an overall reduction in leverage relative to equity. Starting at 0.93 in 2005, the ratio fell considerably to below 0.5 by 2006 and maintained a general downward trajectory, reaching as low as 0.19 in 2018 and 2019. Despite some minor fluctuations, the ratio remained below 0.3 in recent years, suggesting a more conservative capital structure.

Key observations:
The company’s debt levels experienced notable volatility, with peaks around 2012 and 2021, likely reflecting strategic financing or investment activities during those periods.
Equity growth has been robust overall, especially with a significant increase from 2020 to 2021, which may be attributed to capital raising or improved retained earnings.
The declining debt to equity ratio over time signifies strengthening financial stability and reduced reliance on debt financing relative to equity, contributing to a stronger balance sheet position.
