The financial data reveals notable trends in key profitability and comprehensive income metrics over the five-year period ending December 31, 2016.

Net income
There is an overall upward trend in net income, starting at $1,272 million in 2012 and increasing substantially to $6,073 million in 2016. After a rise to $1,718 million in 2013, net income dipped to $1,470 million in 2014 before sharply rising to $3,253 million in 2015 and nearly doubling again in 2016.
Retirement benefits, net of tax
The retirement benefits component shows considerable volatility. It increased from $65 million in 2012 to a peak of $248 million in 2013, dropped significantly to a negative value of -$277 million in 2014, rebounded to $50 million in 2015, and slightly declined to -$11 million in 2016. This indicates inconsistent impacts from retirement benefit adjustments.
Long-term investments, net of tax
Values in long-term investments fluctuate at low absolute levels, decreasing from $7 million in 2012 to $2 million in 2014, with missing data for 2015, and then rising to $14 million in 2016. This suggests limited and inconsistent investment activity over the years.
Hedging instruments, net of tax
Hedging instruments remained relatively stable around zero between 2012 and 2015, with values close to 1 million, except for a small negative value in 2012 (-$14 million). In 2016, the figure increased to $11 million, indicating a more positive impact from hedging activities in the latest year.
Cumulative translation adjustment and other, net of tax
This item demonstrates variability with initial positive values ($13 million in 2012 and $1 million in 2013), followed by negative values in 2014 and 2015 (-$34 million and -$25 million respectively), before recovering to $10 million in 2016. This reflects fluctuations in foreign currency translation effects and other adjustments.
Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax
Other comprehensive income shows pronounced volatility, ranging from a positive $71 million in 2012 to a high of $255 million in 2013, then sharply declining to a negative $308 million in 2014. It returns to modest positive values in 2015 ($26 million) and 2016 ($24 million), indicating significant variability in non-net income comprehensive gains and losses.
Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income follows a similar pattern to net income, increasing from $1,343 million in 2012 to $6,097 million in 2016. Despite fluctuations in other comprehensive income components, the strong growth in net income drives comprehensive income upward, with a dip in 2014 correlating with lower net and other comprehensive income in the same year.
