The return on assets (ROA) exhibited significant volatility over the analyzed period, spanning from 2005 to 2025. Initial years demonstrated positive, albeit modest, returns, followed by substantial negative returns, and then a period of fluctuating performance culminating in a recent upward trend.

Early Period (2005-2009)
From 2005 to 2009, the ROA began at 2.27% and experienced a sharp decline, reaching -40.36% in 2008. This period included a loss in 2006 and a substantial loss in 2007, contributing to the negative ROA values. A recovery was observed in 2009, with the ROA reaching 3.35%, indicating a potential stabilization.
Fluctuating Performance (2010-2016)
The years 2010 through 2016 were characterized by inconsistent ROA values. A peak of 9.91% was achieved in 2011, followed by a dramatic drop to -29.58% in 2012. Subsequent years showed continued negative returns, bottoming out at -21.23% in 2015, before a slight improvement to -14.97% in 2016. This period suggests operational challenges and difficulty in consistently generating profits from the asset base.
Improvement and Peak (2017-2021)
Beginning in 2017, the ROA demonstrated a clear upward trend. It rose from 1.21% to 7.40% in 2017 and 2018 respectively, and continued to increase, reaching a high of 27.78% in 2020. This improvement coincided with a significant increase in net income and total assets. The ROA remained high in 2021 at 25.46%, indicating a period of strong profitability and efficient asset utilization.
Recent Performance (2022-2025)
Following the peak in 2020 and 2021, the ROA decreased to 1.95% in 2022. It experienced a modest recovery in 2023 and 2024, reaching 2.37% and 5.64% respectively. This suggests a potential stabilization after the substantial gains observed in the prior years, but also a return to more moderate profitability levels. The increase in ROA in 2024 indicates a positive trend, but further monitoring is needed to confirm its sustainability.

Overall, the ROA trajectory reveals a company that has navigated periods of significant financial distress and subsequently achieved substantial improvements in profitability and asset utilization. The recent trend suggests a move towards more stable, though less dramatic, returns.
