1 US$ in millions
The financial data reveals significant trends in key profitability and revenue metrics over two decades.
- Revenues
- Revenues consistently increased from US$176 million in 2005 to US$37.9 billion in 2025, demonstrating robust and sustained growth.
- This steady upward trajectory reflects a strong expansion in business scale and market reach over time, with no years showing a revenue decline.
- The growth appears largely exponential, especially notable after 2010, as revenues jumped from US$1.3 billion to nearly US$38 billion by 2025.
- Net Income (Loss)
- Net income exhibited considerable volatility in the earlier years, including losses in 2012-2015, with the most severe loss recorded at US$-270 million in 2013.
- Following this period, net income recovered and grew sharply, reaching peaks such as US$4.1 billion in 2024 and US$6.2 billion in 2025.
- This improvement suggests effective cost management or enhanced operational efficiency alongside revenue growth in later years.
- Net Profit Margin
- The net profit margin mirrored net income trends, initially low and unstable, with several years of negative margins indicating unprofitable operations around 2012 to 2015.
- Starting around 2016, profit margins began to recover, rising to 19.16% in 2021, though fluctuations continued in subsequent years.
- Margins in 2024 and 2025 increased meaningfully to 11.87% and 16.35%, respectively, reflecting improved profitability and stronger net income relative to revenues.
Overall, the data illustrates a company transitioning from a phase of net losses and low profitability in the early 2010s to one with markedly improved earnings and margin performance alongside substantial revenue growth by the mid-2020s.
