1 US$ in millions
- Total Debt
- The total debt shows a fluctuating trend over the observed period. Initially, it increased gradually from 415 million USD in 2013 to a peak of 1173 million USD in 2017. Following this peak, total debt declined significantly, reaching a low of 662 million USD in 2018. Thereafter, it exhibited variability with a notable rise to 1640 million USD in 2020, before steadily decreasing and stabilizing around 1488-1489 million USD from 2022 onwards.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders' equity demonstrates a consistent upward trend throughout the period. Starting at 243 million USD in 2012, it increased steadily almost every year, with notable acceleration after 2016. This upward momentum continued, culminating in a substantial rise to 9609 million USD by 2024, indicating growing net asset value and retained earnings or capital infusions.
- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio displays significant variability and an overall declining pattern. After peaking around 2.01 in 2017, corresponding with the highest debt level and relatively moderate equity, the ratio sharply decreased in subsequent years. By 2019, the ratio was down to 0.33, indicating a lower reliance on debt relative to equity. The downward trend continued, reaching a low of 0.15 in 2024, reflecting an increasingly conservative capital structure with equity growing faster than debt obligations.
- Overall Analysis
- The financial data indicate that the entity has strengthened its equity base substantially over the years while managing debt levels with some strategic fluctuations. The sharp rise and fall in total debt could imply periods of increased financing activity followed by deleveraging or refinancing. The steadily decreasing debt to equity ratio suggests enhanced financial stability and possibly a lower risk profile, as equity capital is growing at a faster rate than debt. This pattern may also reflect improved creditworthiness or a strategic shift toward funding growth through equity rather than debt.
