3 2026 Calculation
Common equity (market value) = Share price × No. shares of common stock outstanding
= 118.78 × 452,855,589


The information presents a fluctuating pattern in key financial metrics over a six-year period. Enterprise value (EV) demonstrates a general decline from 2021 to the projected figures for 2026, although with intermediate increases. Common equity (market value) and total equity mirror each other, exhibiting a similar trajectory of initial growth followed by a substantial decrease. Total equity and debt shows a more moderate fluctuation, with a peak in 2022 and a subsequent decline.

Enterprise Value Trend
Enterprise value increased from US$93.212 billion in 2021 to US$107.691 billion in 2022, representing a growth of approximately 15.5%. A subsequent decrease to US$89.184 billion was observed in 2023, remaining relatively stable in 2024 at US$89.183 billion. Projections indicate a further decline to US$60.052 billion in 2025 and US$64.758 billion in 2026. This suggests a diminishing overall valuation as perceived by the market.
Equity and Debt Composition
Total equity and debt increased from US$101.723 billion in 2021 to US$113.602 billion in 2022, then decreased to US$91.413 billion in 2023 and US$92.988 billion in 2024. Projected values indicate a continued decline to US$64.814 billion in 2025 and US$70.246 billion in 2026. The consistent alignment between common equity (market value) and total equity suggests that market valuation closely reflects the book value of equity.
Equity Value Decline
Common equity (market value) and total equity experienced a significant reduction from US$89.043 billion and US$89.043 billion respectively in 2021 to US$48.874 billion and US$48.874 billion in 2025. A slight recovery to US$53.790 billion is projected for 2026. This substantial decrease in equity value is a prominent feature of the observed trends and warrants further investigation into the underlying causes.

The observed trends suggest a period of initial expansion followed by a contraction in valuation and equity. The projected figures for 2025 and 2026 indicate a continuation of this contraction, although with a potential stabilization in 2026. The relationship between enterprise value and the components of total equity and debt should be further analyzed to understand the drivers behind these changes.
