The statement of comprehensive income reveals significant fluctuations across the five-year period. Net income demonstrates a notable recovery following a decline in 2022, culminating in substantial growth by 2025. However, other comprehensive income exhibits considerable volatility, impacting the overall comprehensive income trend.
- Net Income
- Net income decreased from US$76,033 million in 2021 to US$59,972 million in 2022, representing a substantial decline. A recovery began in 2023, with net income reaching US$73,795 million, and accelerated through 2024 (US$100,118 million) and 2025 (US$132,170 million). This indicates a strong upward trajectory in profitability in the latter part of the period.
- Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
- The foreign currency translation adjustment experienced negative impacts in 2021, 2022, and 2024, with losses of US$-1,442 million, US$-1,836 million, and US$-1,673 million respectively. However, positive adjustments were observed in 2023 (US$735 million) and 2025 (US$2,522 million), suggesting fluctuating impacts from currency exchange rates.
- Unrealized Gains (Losses)
- Changes in net unrealized gains and losses were inconsistent. Significant losses were recorded in 2022 (US$-4,720 million), followed by gains in 2023 (US$1,344 million). Further fluctuations occurred in 2024 (US$-116 million) and 2025 (US$1,146 million). The reclassification adjustments for these gains and losses also varied, contributing to the overall volatility in other comprehensive income.
- Available-for-Sale Investments
- Net changes in available-for-sale investments mirrored the pattern of unrealized gains and losses, with substantial losses in 2022 (US$-3,713 million) and gains in 2023 (US$2,512 million). More moderate changes were observed in 2024 (US$666 million) and 2025 (US$977 million).
- Cash Flow Hedges
- The net change in cash flow hedges demonstrated variability. A positive impact was seen in 2021 (US$562 million), followed by negative impacts in 2022 (US$-431 million), 2023 (US$-46 million), and 2025 (US$-615 million). A positive impact was observed in 2024 (US$609 million).
- Other Comprehensive Income
- Other comprehensive income was highly volatile. Significant losses were recorded in 2022 (US$-5,980 million) and a smaller loss in 2024 (US$-398 million). Gains were observed in 2023 (US$3,201 million) and 2025 (US$2,884 million). This volatility is driven by the fluctuations in the individual components of other comprehensive income.
- Comprehensive Income
- Comprehensive income followed a similar pattern to net income, declining in 2022 (US$53,992 million) before recovering and increasing substantially in 2024 (US$99,720 million) and 2025 (US$135,054 million). The influence of other comprehensive income dampened the overall growth compared to net income alone, particularly in 2022 and 2024.
In summary, while net income demonstrates a strong positive trend, the overall comprehensive income is significantly affected by fluctuations in other comprehensive income components, particularly those related to foreign currency translation and unrealized gains/losses on investments. The period concludes with substantial growth in both net income and comprehensive income.
