1 US$ in millions
The net income attributable to the company exhibits significant fluctuations over the observed period. Beginning with a positive net income of $2,533 million in 2005, there is a general upward trend reaching a peak of $12,598 million in 2018. However, this performance is interrupted in 2020 by a notable net loss of $2,864 million, likely signaling an adverse event or extraordinary circumstance. Following this downturn, the company returns to profitability, with net income recovering to $4,972 million by 2024, though it remains below earlier peak levels.
Total shareholder’s equity shows a consistent growth pattern throughout the period. Starting at $26,210 million in 2005, there is a steady increase with minor fluctuations until 2019, when equity surges sharply to $88,877 million. This elevated level is mostly sustained, maintaining values above $83,000 million through 2024, indicating solid capital base expansion.
The return on equity (ROE) reflects variability corresponding with net income trends. Initially, ROE rises gradually from 9.66% in 2005 to a high of 25.83% in 2018, signaling increasing efficiency in generating profits from equity. The index experiences a significant decline in 2020 to -3.43%, coinciding with the net loss in that year. Subsequent years show modest recovery in ROE, reaching 4.94% by 2024, although still below historical highs, indicating some persistent challenges in profitability relative to equity.
Overall, the company demonstrates strong growth in equity and profitability up to 2018, followed by a sharp downturn in 2020 with a recovery trend seen thereafter. The fluctuations in net income and ROE suggest sensitivity to external or operational disruptions, while the sustained increase in shareholder equity indicates ongoing capital strengthening.
