Asset turnover ratios across the reported geographic areas demonstrate varying performance trends between 2021 and 2025. Generally, the ratios indicate the efficiency with which assets are utilized to generate sales within each region. Significant fluctuations are observed, suggesting differing economic conditions and operational strategies impacting each area.

North America
The asset turnover ratio for North America increased from 3.26 in 2021 to 4.11 in 2022 and peaked at 4.58 in 2023. A subsequent decline to 3.70 in 2024 and a slight recovery to 3.72 in 2025 is noted. This suggests initial improvements in asset utilization followed by a potential stabilization or minor decrease in efficiency.
Latin America
Latin America exhibited a consistent increase in its asset turnover ratio from 5.14 in 2021 to 6.20 in 2022, remaining at 6.20 in 2023, and further increasing to 6.44 in 2024. A notable decrease to 4.60 is observed in 2025. This indicates a period of strong asset utilization followed by a substantial reduction, potentially due to economic shifts or changes in operational scale.
Europe & Africa
The asset turnover ratio for Europe & Africa showed a steady upward trend, increasing from 3.42 in 2021 to 4.32 in 2022, 4.94 in 2023, and peaking at 5.62 in 2024.

Analysis of North American operations reveals a generally positive trend in revenue alongside increasing fixed asset investment between 2021 and 2025. However, the area asset turnover ratio exhibits fluctuations over the period, indicating varying levels of efficiency in asset utilization.

Revenue
Revenue from North American operations demonstrated consistent growth from US$4,466 million in 2021 to US$7,515 million in 2025. Growth was particularly strong between 2021 and 2022, increasing by 34.2%. While revenue continued to increase in 2023, the rate of growth slowed. A slight decrease was observed in 2024 before resuming growth in 2025.
Fixed Assets less accumulated depreciation
The value of fixed assets less accumulated depreciation increased steadily from US$1,368 million in 2021 to US$2,020 million in 2025. The largest single-year increase occurred between 2023 and 2024, with an addition of US$336 million in fixed assets. This suggests ongoing investment in the region’s infrastructure and capacity.
Area Asset Turnover
The area asset turnover ratio, a measure of how efficiently assets are used to generate revenue, increased from 3.26 in 2021 to 4.58 in 2023. This indicates improving asset utilization during this period. However, the ratio decreased to 3.70 in 2024 and remained relatively stable at 3.72 in 2025. The decline from 2023 suggests that revenue growth did not keep pace with the increase in fixed assets during those years, potentially due to factors such as project ramp-up times or underutilized capacity. Despite the recent decline, the ratio remains above the 2021 level.

In summary, while North American revenue has grown consistently, the asset turnover ratio indicates that the efficiency of asset utilization has fluctuated. The recent stabilization of the ratio, coupled with continued investment in fixed assets, warrants further investigation to determine the optimal level of asset deployment and potential areas for improved operational efficiency.

The Latin America area demonstrates a generally positive trend in asset utilization from 2021 to 2024, followed by a decline in the most recent year. Revenue increased consistently during this period, while fixed assets also grew, though at a slower pace initially. This resulted in improving efficiency in asset use before a reversal in 2025.

Revenue
Revenue in Latin America exhibited consistent growth from US$4,459 million in 2021 to US$6,719 million in 2024. However, a decrease to US$6,152 million was observed in 2025, representing a contraction in sales within the region.
Fixed Assets less accumulated depreciation
The value of fixed assets less accumulated depreciation increased from US$868 million in 2021 to US$1,071 million in 2023. Growth slowed in 2024, reaching US$1,044 million, and then increased more substantially to US$1,338 million in 2025. This suggests increased investment in fixed assets within the region in the latest period.
Area asset turnover
The area asset turnover ratio increased from 5.14 in 2021 to 6.20 in both 2022 and 2023, indicating improved efficiency in generating revenue from fixed assets. Further improvement was seen in 2024, with the ratio reaching 6.44. However, a notable decline to 4.60 was recorded in 2025. This decrease suggests a less efficient utilization of assets in the most recent year, potentially due to the combination of decreasing revenue and increasing fixed asset investment.

The decline in area asset turnover in 2025 warrants further investigation. While revenue decreased, the more significant increase in fixed assets appears to be the primary driver of the reduced ratio. This could indicate over-investment in assets relative to sales, or a lag effect where new assets have not yet translated into increased revenue.
