Area asset turnover = Net revenue ÷ Long-lived assets
= ÷ =


Net Revenue
The net revenue exhibit a fluctuating trend over the analyzed period. Starting at 1,871 million USD in 2019, revenue decreased to 1,619 million USD in 2020, which could indicate some challenges or market conditions impacting sales. However, from 2020 onwards, there was a strong recovery and growth, rising to 2,038 million USD in 2021, followed by a significant increase to 3,104 million USD in 2022 and peaking at 4,006 million USD in 2023. The most recent data in 2024 shows a slight decline to 3,818 million USD, suggesting a possible moderation in growth or market saturation after several years of expansion.
Long-lived Assets
The value of long-lived assets demonstrates a consistent upward trajectory throughout the period. Beginning at 1,539 million USD in 2019, assets steadily increased year over year to reach 3,759 million USD in 2024. This near continuous rise suggests ongoing investment in fixed assets or property, plant, and equipment, likely supporting operational expansion or capacity enhancement.
Area Asset Turnover
Area asset turnover ratio reflects the efficiency in utilizing assets to generate revenue within this geographic area. The ratio began at 1.22 in 2019 but declined to 0.99 in 2020, mirroring the drop in revenue seen in the same period. Subsequently, the turnover showed a moderate improvement, rising to 1.04 in 2021 and further increasing to 1.24 in 2023. However, by 2024, the ratio decreased again to 1.02. This fluctuation indicates variability in asset utilization effectiveness; periods of growth in asset turnover correspond with revenue increases, while declines may reflect the lag effect of asset investments or operational efficiency challenges.
Overall Insights
The data suggests a strategic focus on asset growth accompanied by attempts to enhance revenue generation capacity. Despite some volatility in revenue and asset turnover, the general pattern is one of expansion, with long-term asset buildup signaling commitment to growth in the United States market. The variations in asset turnover imply that while asset investments are substantial, the efficiency of those assets in producing revenue has not been consistently stable, indicating potential areas for operational improvement.

= ÷ =


Net Revenue
Net revenue in the China geographic area exhibited a consistent upward trend over the analyzed period. Starting at $4,277 million in 2019, revenue increased significantly to $10,117 million by 2024, more than doubling within five years. The most pronounced growth occurred between 2023 and 2024, with an increase of approximately 39.7%. Slight fluctuations were observed in 2022 and 2023, where revenue slightly decreased from $7,535 million in 2021 to $7,254 million in 2022 and remained nearly flat at $7,247 million in 2023 before the strong leap in 2024.
Long-Lived Assets
The long-lived assets allocated to this region demonstrated a steady decline throughout the period. Starting from $20 million in 2019, there was a consistent decrease each year, reaching only $3 million by 2024. This represents an 85% reduction over the six-year span, indicating a significant reduction in the fixed asset base within the area.
Area Asset Turnover Ratio
The area asset turnover ratio exhibited a remarkable upward trajectory, reflecting increased efficiency in utilizing assets to generate revenue. From 213.85 in 2019, the ratio surged annually to reach an exceptional 3,372.33 in 2024. This progressive growth signifies a dramatic improvement in revenue generated per unit of asset, correlating with both the decline in long-lived assets and the rise in net revenue. The accelerative increase in asset turnover suggests strategic optimization or disposals of assets alongside robust revenue growth.
Summary
The overall trends indicate a strategic shift in asset management combined with robust revenue growth in the China geographical area. The steady decline in long-lived assets paired with substantial increases in net revenue and asset turnover ratio suggests improved operational efficiency and asset utilization. This pattern may reflect increased reliance on intangible assets, outsourcing, or other operational changes reducing capital intensity. The notable revenue expansion in 2024 coupled with a further reduced asset base highlights a successful scaling of operations within this region.

The data for the Korea geographic area over the six-year period presents several notable trends in net revenue, long-lived assets, and area asset turnover ratios.

Net Revenue
Net revenue demonstrates a generally increasing trend from 2019 to 2024, with a significant surge between 2019 and 2021. Starting at 1,929 million US dollars in 2019, revenue nearly doubled to 3,031 million in 2020 and then increased sharply to 5,012 million in 2021. Following this peak, revenue declines modestly in 2022 to 4,395 million, before experiencing slight growth in 2023 to 4,609 million. In 2024, revenue shows a minor decrease to 4,493 million. Overall, despite some fluctuations after 2021, net revenue levels remain substantially higher than in 2019.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets exhibit a consistent downward trend throughout the period. Beginning at 24 million US dollars in 2019, the asset base steadily decreases year over year, reaching only 9 million by 2024. This decline suggests reduced investment in or disposal of long-term assets in this geographic area over the analyzed period.
Area Asset Turnover
The area asset turnover ratio shows a pronounced upward trajectory. Starting at 80.38 in 2019, the ratio nearly doubles in 2020 to 144.33 and then more than doubles again to 313.25 in 2021. It remains relatively stable in 2022 at 313.93 before accelerating further to 419.00 in 2023 and reaching 499.22 in 2024. The increasing ratio indicates enhanced efficiency in generating revenue from assets in this region, reflecting either improved operational performance or the impact of the declining asset base combined with robust revenue.

In summary, the financial indicators for the Korea segment reveal strong revenue growth up to 2021 with a slight decline afterward, accompanied by a steady reduction in long-lived assets. The rising area asset turnover ratio underscores increasing operational efficiency or asset utilization over the six-year period.

1 2024 Calculation
Area asset turnover = Net revenue ÷ Long-lived assets
= ÷ =


Net Revenue
The net revenue from the Taiwan geographic area demonstrated a general increasing trend from fiscal year 2019 through 2022, rising from 2,965 million US dollars to a peak of 6,262 million US dollars. This represents more than a twofold increase over this period. However, in the subsequent years, 2023 and 2024, net revenue experienced a notable decline, dropping to 5,670 million US dollars in 2023 and further to 4,010 million US dollars in 2024. Despite this decrease, the revenue in 2024 still remains higher than the levels observed in 2019 and 2020.
Long-lived Assets
The value of long-lived assets in the Taiwan area remained relatively stable over the entire period analyzed. Starting at 56 million US dollars in 2019, the assets increased slightly to 62 million US dollars by 2021 and 2022, and then marginally decreased back to 59 million US dollars in both 2023 and 2024. This indicates that the company's investment in long-term assets in this region did not undergo significant fluctuations during the period.
Area Asset Turnover Ratio
The area asset turnover ratio showed an upward trend from 2019, increasing from 52.95 to a peak of 101 in 2022. This suggests a rising efficiency in generating revenue from assets in the Taiwan area during this timeframe. After 2022, the ratio declined, reaching 96.1 in 2023 and decreasing further to 67.97 in 2024. Although the ratio diminished in the last two years, the 2024 figure still exceeds the turnovers recorded in 2019 and 2020, implying a still relatively efficient use of assets compared to the earlier years.

1 2024 Calculation
Area asset turnover = Net revenue ÷ Long-lived assets
= ÷ =


Net revenue
The net revenue shows a fluctuating pattern over the observed periods. It decreased from 2198 million USD in 2019 to 1996 million USD in 2020, and further slightly declined to 1962 million USD in 2021. Subsequently, net revenue started recovering with increases in 2022, 2023, and 2024, reaching 2154 million USD, close to the initial 2019 level. This indicates a temporary reduction followed by a gradual recovery in net sales within the geographic area.
Long-lived assets
The value of long-lived assets declined sharply from 16 million USD in 2019 and 2020 to 9 million USD in 2021, and further down to 7 million USD from 2022 onward, maintaining this level through 2024. This significant reduction suggests divestment or depreciation leading to a lower asset base over the period.
Area asset turnover
Area asset turnover ratio experienced a notable upward trend through the years. Starting at 137.38 in 2019, it decreased slightly in 2020 to 124.75, but then surged impressively to 218 in 2021. The ratio continued increasing substantially in subsequent years, reaching 307.71 by 2024. This reflects an improving efficiency in utilizing assets to generate revenue, likely connected to the reduction in long-lived assets combined with relatively stable revenues.

Area asset turnover = Net revenue ÷ Long-lived assets
= ÷ =


The analysis of the Europe geographic area data over the six-year period reveals several notable trends across net revenue, long-lived assets, and area asset turnover.

Net Revenue
Net revenue exhibited significant growth from 2019 to 2023, increasing from US$820 million in 2019 to a peak of US$2,152 million in 2023. This represents a substantial upward trajectory, more than doubling over this period. However, in the most recent fiscal year ending 2024, net revenue declined notably to US$1,443 million, suggesting a potential slowdown or market adjustment after the previous growth phase.
Long-Lived Assets
The value of long-lived assets showed a fluctuating pattern with a marked increase in recent years. Starting at US$28 million in 2019, there was a decline to US$12 million by 2021, followed by a sharp rise to US$110 million in 2023, and a slight increase to US$113 million in 2024. This pattern indicates a period of reduced asset holdings or perhaps asset disposals, succeeded by a significant reinvestment or acquisition phase that bolstered the asset base.
Area Asset Turnover
Area asset turnover, which measures revenue generated per unit of assets, was highly volatile. An initial increase from 29.29 in 2019 to a peak of 91.42 in 2021 was observed, indicating very efficient use of assets during this time. Following this peak, area asset turnover declined sharply to 12.77 by 2024. This drop aligns with the rise in long-lived assets, suggesting that the increase in asset base outpaced revenue growth in recent years, thereby reducing turnover efficiency.

In summary, the Europe geographic area experienced strong revenue growth through 2023, supported by an increasing investment in long-lived assets starting in 2022. The initial improvement in asset turnover efficiency peaked in 2021 but subsequently declined as asset growth outstripped revenue expansion, raising considerations about asset utilization effectiveness moving forward. The revenue decline in 2024 also signals potential challenges in maintaining prior growth momentum.

Area asset turnover = Net revenue ÷ Long-lived assets
= ÷ =


Net Revenue
Net revenue for the geographic area exhibits notable fluctuations over the examined periods. Starting from 548 million USD in 2019, there is a decline to 411 million USD in 2020, followed by an increase to 677 million USD in 2021. A significant surge occurs in 2022, reaching 1,084 million USD. This is followed by a decrease to 758 million USD in 2023 and another substantial rise to 1,141 million USD in 2024. Overall, the net revenue trend shows volatility with marked peaks in 2022 and 2024.
Long-lived Assets
The value of long-lived assets demonstrates a consistent downward trend throughout the periods. Beginning at 23 million USD in 2019, this figure gradually decreases each year, reaching a low of 5 million USD by 2024. The decline suggests a reduction in fixed or long-term asset holdings in this geographic area over time.
Area Asset Turnover
The area asset turnover ratio shows a significant upward trajectory across the analyzed years. Initially, the ratio slightly declines from 23.83 in 2019 to 22.83 in 2020. Subsequently, it experiences a sharp increase to 52.08 in 2021, then more than doubles to 135.5 in 2022. After a slight decrease to 126.33 in 2023, it reaches its highest point at 228.2 in 2024. This trend indicates increasingly efficient use of assets to generate revenue within the area.
Summary Insight
The data reflect an overall strategy or condition where asset base is steadily reduced while revenue generation shows strong growth with significant volatility. The pronounced increase in asset turnover ratio suggests improved operational efficiency or greater intensity of asset utilization. The divergence between declining long-lived assets and rising net revenue indicates possible shifts in asset management, such as greater reliance on intangible assets, outsourcing, or more efficient deployment of physical resources.
