Net earnings (loss): Net earnings display significant volatility across the observed quarters, ranging from a peak of 552,400 thousand USD in September 2022 to a trough of -25,900 thousand USD in March 2020. The pattern shows recurring strong positive results interspersed with sharp declines, particularly evident during 2020, coinciding with broader economic disruptions.
Discontinued operations, net of tax: Discontinued operations fluctuate without a clear trend, showing occasional significant negative impacts such as in December 2018 and September 2019. The most notable positive impact is 78,700 thousand USD in March 2020, followed by smaller values in subsequent periods, reflecting sporadic disposal activities.
Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization expenses remain relatively stable over the periods, hovering around 70,000 to 105,000 thousand USD. There is a slight upward tendency in later years, indicative of ongoing capital investment and asset base expansion.
Pension and other postretirement benefits: Starting from the data available in September 2020, pension and related benefits remain within a narrow band (about 10,100 to 25,000 thousand USD), without a discernible upward or downward trend, suggesting consistent obligations over time.
Stock settled share-based compensation: Beginning in September 2019, this compensation fluctuates between 10,000 and 29,000 thousand USD, with spikes in March 2021 (24,700 thousand USD) and December 2021 (21,400 thousand USD), potentially reflecting variable management incentives or accounting adjustments.
Adjustments for non-cash transactions: These adjustments closely mirror depreciation and amortization figures but show an increase from 2019 onward, peaking at 121,100 thousand USD in March 2020, suggesting intensified non-cash accounting entries during certain periods, possibly due to asset write-downs or impairments.
Changes in assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions: This metric exhibits substantial fluctuations, swinging from large negative values (e.g., -400,500 thousand USD in March 2019) to significant positive changes such as 426,800 thousand USD in September 2020. Such volatility indicates irregular timing or magnitude of working capital movements impacting cash flows.
Other non-cash items, net: There is no consistent pattern, with values oscillating between gains and losses. A pronounced negative effect appears in December 2018 (-202,600 thousand USD), while other quarters show moderate fluctuations, indicating sporadic non-cash accounting activities.
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities: Operating cash flows are highly volatile, with extremely strong inflows recorded in quarters like December 2019 (866,500 thousand USD) and September 2020 (953,700 thousand USD), but also sharp outflows such as March 2020 (-129,300 thousand USD). The overall trend suggests variable operational performance coupled with working capital adjustments.
Capital expenditures: Capital expenditures exhibit moderate volatility but generally remain within the range of approximately 25,000 to 114,400 thousand USD per quarter. There is a slight upward movement noticeable in late 2021 and early 2022, potentially indicating increased investment activity.
Acquisitions of businesses, net of cash acquired: Acquisition activity is irregular, characterized by significant outflows such as -1,455,600 thousand USD in June 2019. Several quarters show little or no activity, reflecting episodic strategic acquisition investments.
Deconsolidation of certain entities under Chapter 11: Data is limited, with a noted activity of -10,800 thousand USD in June 2020, indicating a discrete event linked to restructuring or bankruptcy proceedings impacting the financial structure.
Other investing activities, net: These activities vary widely, with both positive and negative values, indicating a mix of ancillary investing cash flows such as asset sales or purchases. Notable negative outflows in early 2021 and late 2022 suggest occasional increased investing spend or reduced cash inflows from disposals.
Net cash used in investing activities: The pattern reflects substantial cash outflows overall, notably magnified during mid-2019 due to acquisition spending and sustained capital investments. Periods of reduced outflows, such as early 2018 and 2023, suggest fluctuating investment intensity.
Short-term payments, net: This item is sporadic and uneven, with large positive inflows early in the timeline (247,900 thousand USD in March 2018) and significant negative outflows in other quarters, showing irregular short-term financing or repayment activities.
Proceeds from long-term debt: Long-term debt proceeds occur in isolated, large amounts, especially in March 2019 (1,497,900 thousand USD) and March 2023 (699,100 thousand USD), reflecting occasional debt financing to support liquidity or strategic initiatives.
Payments of long-term debt: Debt repayments are also irregular, with large sums repaid in various quarters, including March 2018 (-1,115,400 thousand USD) and December 2020 (-300,000 thousand USD), indicating active debt management and deleveraging at times.
Net proceeds from (payments of) debt: Net debt financing shows considerable variability, with significant positive spikes (e.g., March 2019) and negative outflows at others, consistent with an active approach to balancing debt levels.
Debt issuance costs: Costs related to debt issuance remain low but fluctuate across periods, generally under 10,000 thousand USD, with no clear trend, consistent with sporadic issuance activity.
Dividends paid to ordinary shareholders: Dividends are stable and consistently paid each quarter, ranging between approximately 110,000 and 170,000 thousand USD, with a slight upward trend over time, reflecting steady shareholder return policies.
Dividends paid to noncontrolling interests: Payments to noncontrolling interests are irregular and generally lower in magnitude, showing occasional fluctuations likely linked to ownership stakes in subsidiary entities.
Proceeds (payments) from shares issued under incentive plans, net: Starting in late 2019, share-related cash flows show positive net proceeds in several quarters, reaching as high as 43,100 thousand USD in September 2021, indicating active equity-based compensation arrangements.
Repurchase of ordinary shares: Share repurchases are substantial and recurrent, with significant outflows observed almost every quarter, notably the largest being over 500,000 thousand USD in December 2021, signaling an aggressive share buyback strategy.
Receipt of (settlement related to) special cash payment: There is a notable inflow of 1,900,000 thousand USD in December 2019, and smaller irregular payments in subsequent periods, indicating a one-time or exceptional event significantly influencing cash flow.
Other financing activities, net: These activities show moderate variability, occasionally resulting in net outflows or inflows of a few thousand USD, reflecting ancillary financing cash flows without a consistent pattern.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities: Financing cash flows are characterized by volatility, including significant inflows in select quarters (e.g., Q1 2019) and large outflows in others, consistent with the pattern of substantial debt movements and share repurchases.
Net cash used in discontinued operating activities: Discontinued operations show negative cash flows throughout, particularly striking in the March 2020 quarter (-198,300 thousand USD) and March 2022 (-184,300 thousand USD), indicating sustained cash consumption from these segments.
Net cash used in discontinued investing activities: This category shows minor cash outflows in select quarters, suggesting limited ongoing investments related to discontinued operations.
Net cash used in discontinued activities: Combined discontinued activities exhibit negative cash flows, with significant outflows in early 2020 and 2022, corroborating continued financial impacts from operations/assets no longer part of core business segments.
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents: The impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations is inconsistent, with both positive and negative effects, including a peak negative effect of -47,700 thousand USD in September 2022 and a positive effect of 56,900 thousand USD in December 2020, indicating exposure to currency risk.
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents: Overall cash levels are highly unstable, with large positive inflows such as 1,369,100 thousand USD in March 2020 juxtaposed against significant decreases like -810,800 thousand USD in March 2022. This fluctuation reflects the cumulative effect of operations, investing, and financing activities combined with foreign exchange influences.
