Revenue Composition
The proportion of product revenues generally increased over the period, rising from about 75.85% in September 2018 to a peak around 82.56% in December 2022 before fluctuating downward to approximately 78.15% in March 2025. Service revenues followed an inverse pattern, decreasing from roughly 24.15% in September 2018 to a low of 17.44% in December 2022, then recovering somewhat to about 21.85% by March 2025.
Costs and Gross Margin
The cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues rose sharply from -34.89% in September 2018 to a peak near -47.1% in June 2019, indicating increased cost pressures during that period. Subsequently, costs declined and stabilized around the -39% to -40% range from 2020 onward, with a slight upward spike back toward -42.12% in December 2023. Correspondingly, the gross margin saw a pronounced drop to approximately 52.9% in June 2019 but rebounded and remained relatively stable, averaging around 60% in the later years, despite a slight dip in late 2023.
Research and Development Expenses
R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues exhibited a downward trend over the time series. Starting at around -14.04% in September 2018, they decreased steadily to near -11% from 2022 onward, reflecting a relative reduction in R&D spending intensity as a share of revenues.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses showed a marked improvement over time, decreasing from approximately -10.47% in September 2018 to levels near -8% by the end of the series. There were fluctuations, including a peak near -16.6% in March 2019, but the overall trend was toward reduced SG&A burden relative to revenues.
Impairment Charges
Notable one-time impairment charges impacted the financials in selected quarters as a percentage of revenues: a significant charge of -18.02% in the March 2020 quarter, followed by smaller impairments of -8.81% and -2.99% in late 2023, and another charge of -7.77% in March 2025. These charges indicate occasional asset write-downs affecting profitability in those periods.
Income from Operations
Operating income exhibited volatility with a sharp dip during early 2020 due to increased costs and impairments, reaching a low of 12.36% in March 2020. After that, operating income recovered strongly, maintaining a range mostly between 35% and 42%, with some fluctuations reflecting the underlying cost and revenue dynamics and occasional impairments.
Interest Expense and Debt-Related Charges
Interest expense remained relatively stable, generally ranging from -1.6% to -3.4% of revenues. There was a slight downward trend in the latter part of the period, but spikes near -3.4% occurred as well. There were also isolated loss on extinguishment of debt charges noted in the first quarter of 2020 (-1.58%) and late 2022 (-0.49%), reflecting debt restructuring activities impacting financial costs.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income and expense items fluctuated but generally contributed positive amounts to pre-tax income in most quarters, except for some negative periods in 2020 and 2021. The trend demonstrated improved other income effects in recent quarters, with amounts up to nearly 2% of revenues, providing a modest boost to earnings.
Income Before Income Taxes
Pre-tax income followed a pattern similar to operating income, with a trough in early 2020 and recovery thereafter. Values ranged from lows near 8% in March 2020 to peaks exceeding 40% in late 2024 and early 2025, indicating strong profitability after accounting for interest and other items.
Income Tax Provision
The tax provision as a percentage of revenues was generally negative, reflecting tax expenses ranging from around -1% to -5%. Some exceptional quarters showed unusual tax benefits or higher charges, such as a substantial tax benefit (approximately 14.5%) in September 2021 and more pronounced tax expenses in related quarters. These fluctuations suggest variability in tax rate impacts and one-time tax effects.
Net Income
Net income trends largely mirrored pre-tax income and tax effects. Net income as a percentage of revenues fluctuated significantly, with a notable dip to around 5.48% in March 2020 coinciding with impairment and cost spikes, followed by recovery to levels around 30% or more in most recent quarters. The exceptional net income magnitude of about 51.27% in September 2021 reflects an unusual positive event, likely tax or impairment-related, boosting net profitability substantially in that period.
Attribution of Net Income
The net income attributable to the parent company closely tracked overall net income, with only marginal differences due to non-controlling interests, which were negligible throughout the period.
