Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
The net cash provided by operating activities displayed a fluctuating trend over the six-year period. Starting at 555,102 thousand US dollars in February 2018, there was a significant decline to 300,556 thousand US dollars in February 2019. This was followed by a moderate increase to 339,188 thousand US dollars in February 2020 and a substantial rise to 500,770 thousand US dollars in January 2021. The peak value was observed in January 2022 at 662,114 thousand US dollars before declining to 403,687 thousand US dollars in January 2023. Considering the entire period, the operating cash flow demonstrated volatility with a general recovery trend after the initial drop, although the latest figure indicates a downturn.
Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE)
The free cash flow to equity exhibited high variability with notable peaks and troughs. Beginning with a strong figure of 745,623 thousand US dollars in February 2018, the FCFE experienced a sharp decrease to 146,170 thousand US dollars in February 2019. It rebounded to 250,499 thousand US dollars in February 2020 but then fell again to 139,701 thousand US dollars in January 2021. A dramatic surge occurred in January 2022 with FCFE reaching 2,072,484 thousand US dollars, more than eight times the previous year's value. However, this was followed by a significant drop to 488,008 thousand US dollars in January 2023. The data suggest considerable fluctuations in free cash flow capacity, with the unusually high value in 2022 potentially due to exceptional events or transactions.

The analysis of financial data reveals several notable trends and fluctuations over the examined periods.

Share Price
The share price experienced a general upward trajectory from 95.28 US$ in early 2018 to a peak of 600 US$ in early 2020. After reaching this high point, there was a sharp drop to 334.28 US$ in early 2021, followed by a decline to 245.71 US$ by early 2023. Despite the declines after 2020, the share price remained significantly higher than the initial levels observed in 2018 and 2019.
Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) per Share
FCFE per share showed considerable volatility over the periods. It started at 34.65 US$ in 2018, dropped significantly to 7.14 US$ in 2019, and then rose again to 13.02 US$ in 2020. However, it declined to 6.65 US$ in 2021 before surging dramatically to 95.47 US$ in 2022, followed by a decrease to 22.14 US$ in 2023. This pattern indicates fluctuating cash flow generation capabilities. The peak in 2022 stands out as an outlier compared to other years.
Price to Free Cash Flow to Equity (P/FCFE) Ratio
The P/FCFE ratio exhibited substantial variation. It started relatively low at 2.75 in 2018, spiked to 14.42 in 2019, decreased to 9.06 in 2020, then soared to an exceptionally high level of 90.18 in 2021. This was followed by a sharp reduction to 3.5 in 2022 and a rise again to 11.1 in 2023. The fluctuations in this ratio, particularly the spike in 2021, suggest significant changes in the market valuation relative to the cash flow generated.

Overall, the data reflects pronounced volatility both in market valuation and in underlying free cash flow performance. The extreme variations in FCFE per share and the P/FCFE ratio, especially during 2021 and 2022, highlight periods of heightened uncertainty or exceptional operational performance that merit further investigation to understand the driving factors. The decline in share price after the 2020 peak combined with the divergent cash flow metrics suggests a market reassessment of the company's value and cash flow prospects in recent years.
