- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- The net operating profit after taxes experienced fluctuations over the periods analyzed. Initially, there was a decline from approximately 168 million to 133 million from 2019 to 2020. This was followed by a notable increase, reaching around 256 million in 2021 and peaking at approximately 576 million in 2022. A slight decrease was observed in 2023, with NOPAT amounting to about 522 million. Overall, the trend indicates recovery and considerable growth after 2020, with a peak in 2022 ahead of a moderate contraction in the subsequent year.
- Cost of Capital
- The cost of capital showed a gradual downward trend, starting at 19.4% in 2019 and declining marginally each year to 18.66% by 2023. The rate remained relatively stable around the high 18s to low 19% range throughout the period, suggesting consistent capital costs with slight improvements in efficiency or risk perceptions.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital displayed significant variability. There was a substantial increase from approximately 529 million in 2019 to about 951 million in 2020, followed by a decrease to around 779 million in 2021. Subsequently, invested capital markedly increased again to nearly 1.29 billion in 2022 and slightly further to about 1.30 billion in 2023. This pattern reflects considerable capital expansion with minor retractions within the intermediate period, indicating ongoing investments in assets or operations.
- Economic Profit
- Economic profit exhibited pronounced volatility. Starting positively at roughly 66 million in 2019, it turned negative in 2020 with a loss of about 47 million. The measure recovered strongly in 2021 to approximately 110 million and surged significantly to nearly 334 million in 2022. A decline occurred in 2023, with economic profit reducing to about 279 million. These trends mirror NOPAT developments adjusted for the cost of capital applied to invested capital, highlighting periods of value destruction and substantial creation over the years reviewed.

The annual financial data reveals significant trends in both net income and net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) over the five-year period ending December 31, 2023.
- Net Income
- Net income experienced a decline from 2019 to 2020, decreasing from $161,148 thousand to $133,995 thousand. This was followed by a moderate recovery in 2021, with net income rising to $145,449 thousand. A substantial increase occurred in 2022, where net income nearly tripled compared to the previous year, reaching $397,362 thousand. The upward trend continued into 2023, with net income rising further to $438,936 thousand.
- Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT)
- NOPAT showed a similar pattern to net income but with more pronounced fluctuations. It decreased slightly from $168,136 thousand in 2019 to $132,831 thousand in 2020. In 2021, NOPAT nearly doubled to $255,560 thousand, indicating a strong improvement in operating profitability. A significant surge occurred in 2022, with NOPAT reaching $575,824 thousand, which more than doubled the previous year’s figure. However, in 2023, there was a notable decrease to $521,640 thousand, representing a decline compared to 2022 but still substantially above values from earlier years.
- Overall Trends and Insights
- Both net income and NOPAT reflect a recovery and growth trajectory after an initial dip in 2020, suggesting that the company improved profitability after the economic challenges that year. The dramatic increases in 2022 indicate a period of exceptional operational performance. The slight decline in NOPAT in 2023, despite continuing growth in net income, might indicate changes in operational efficiency or expense structure that merit further examination. The general upward trend for both metrics over the five years suggests strengthening financial health and enhanced value generation.

- Income Taxes Provision for (Benefit From)
- The income taxes provision exhibited a volatile trend over the five-year period. It started with a negative value of -$71,034 thousand in 2019, indicating a tax benefit or credit situation. This negative provision decreased substantially to -$14,585 thousand in 2020 and further to -$24,521 thousand in 2021, showing fluctuations in tax benefits during these years. However, in 2022, there was a significant reversal, with the provision turning positive to $54,686 thousand, indicating a tax expense. This upward trend continued in 2023, reaching $74,203 thousand, which suggests increasing tax liabilities or reduced tax benefits in these latter years.
- Cash Operating Taxes
- Cash operating taxes demonstrated a steady and strong upward trajectory throughout the analyzed period. Beginning at $3,653 thousand in 2019, the amount nearly doubled to $6,809 thousand in 2020, more than doubled again to $16,301 thousand in 2021, and saw a dramatic rise to $54,271 thousand in 2022. The growth culminated at $108,957 thousand in 2023, representing an approximately 30-fold increase from the 2019 figure. This continuous increase suggests substantially higher cash tax outflows, potentially reflecting improved profitability, changes in tax regulations, or reduced tax incentives.

The financial data over the five-year period reveals key trends in the company's capital structure and financial positioning.
- Total Reported Debt & Leases
- The total reported debt and leases exhibit a significant increase from 2019 to 2020, more than tripling from approximately $118.3 million to $350.6 million. This upward trajectory accelerates further in 2021 when debt nearly triples again to over $1.05 billion. In 2022, the total debt continues to rise but at a moderated pace, reaching approximately $1.31 billion, and remains relatively stable through 2023.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity shows growth overall, with a notable increase from $272.2 million in 2019 to nearly $484 million in 2020. However, in 2021 there is a decline to about $430.2 million. Following this dip, equity increases substantially in 2022 to $825.6 million and reaches $983.6 million by 2023, nearly doubling from the previous year and demonstrating a strengthening equity base in recent periods.
- Invested Capital
- Invested capital fluctuates over the period with an initial sharp increase from $528.9 million in 2019 to $951.5 million in 2020. It then decreases to $779.2 million in 2021 before sharply rising again in 2022 to $1.29 billion and remaining relatively stable through 2023 at about $1.30 billion. This pattern suggests periods of investment expansion followed by some consolidation before significant capital deployment resumes.
Overall, the data indicates a trend of increasing leverage over the five years, especially between 2019 and 2021, followed by stabilization in debt levels. Equity has grown robustly after a slight setback in 2021, supporting a stronger capital base by 2023. Invested capital reflects these financing changes, showing corresponding increases that suggest strategic growth initiatives or acquisitions that require elevated capital investment. The stabilization in debt alongside rising equity towards the end suggests an effort to balance the capital structure for sustained financial health.

The annual financial data reveals significant fluctuations and growth in various key metrics. The economic profit demonstrates a volatile trend with an initial positive value followed by a negative result in one period, and then a substantial recovery and growth thereafter. Specifically, after recording a profit of 65.5 million US dollars in 2019, the company experienced a loss of approximately 47.2 million US dollars in 2020. Subsequently, economic profit rebounded strongly to 110.3 million US dollars in 2021, surging further to 333.7 million US dollars in 2022 before slightly declining to 278.6 million US dollars in 2023.
Invested capital has generally trended upward throughout the period under review, starting at around 529 million US dollars at the end of 2019 and nearly doubling to over 951 million US dollars by the end of 2020. Although there was a decrease in 2021 to roughly 779 million US dollars, invested capital then increased significantly in the following years, reaching approximately 1.29 billion US dollars in 2022 and 1.30 billion US dollars in 2023. This indicates a substantial expansion in the capital base used by the company over the analyzed time frame.
The economic spread ratio, which reflects the return on invested capital relative to its cost, also shows notable volatility. Starting at a positive 12.39% in 2019, it turned negative in 2020 with a rate of -4.96%, mirroring the decline in economic profit for that year. The ratio recovered strongly in 2021 to 14.15%, and improved further to a peak of 25.96% in 2022, before experiencing a slight reduction to 21.39% in 2023. This pattern suggests a period of renewed operational efficiency and value creation after the downturn in 2020.
Overall, the data indicates that while the company faced challenges in 2020 reflected by negative economic profit and spread, it subsequently achieved significant recovery and growth in economic profit and invested capital. The improvements in the economic spread ratio post-2020 suggest enhanced profitability and effective capital utilization.

- Adjusted Net Revenues
- The adjusted net revenues demonstrated a consistent and significant growth over the analyzed period, increasing from approximately 696 million USD in 2019 to about 2.4 billion USD in 2023. Notably, the growth rate accelerated sharply between 2020 and 2022, suggesting a period of rapid expansion before marginally declining in 2023.
- Economic Profit
- The economic profit showed considerable volatility. It started positively in 2019 at around 65.5 million USD but declined to a negative value of approximately -47.2 million USD in 2020. This was followed by a robust recovery and growth, peaking at over 333 million USD in 2022 before slightly decreasing to about 279 million USD in 2023. The overall trend indicates a recovery and solid improvement after the dip in 2020.
- Economic Profit Margin
- The economic profit margin mirrored the economic profit's fluctuations. It was positive at 9.41% in 2019, turned negative to -6.17% in 2020, then rebounded to 7.56% in 2021. This upward trajectory continued, reaching a peak of 13.6% in 2022, before decreasing modestly to 11.58% in 2023. This pattern suggests improved profitability relative to revenues after the 2020 downturn.
- Summary
- Despite a challenging year in 2020, both the economic profit and its margin showed strong recoveries and growth in subsequent years, aligning with significant increases in adjusted net revenues. The peak in 2022 across economic profit and margin suggests a period of optimal financial performance, followed by a slight reduction in 2023, indicating possible stabilization or early signs of margin compression.
