The financial data reflects notable developments in the market valuation and invested capital over the five-year period.
- Market (fair) value
- The market value showed a consistent upward trend overall, beginning at approximately $27.65 billion in 2018 and increasing to $53.73 billion by the end of 2022. There was a slight decrease noticed in 2020 compared to 2019, but the value rebounded strongly in the subsequent years, reaching the highest point in 2022. This indicates growing investor confidence and potentially favorable market conditions.
- Invested capital
- Invested capital experienced a gradual increase from about $6.55 billion in 2018 to nearly $8.76 billion in 2022. The growth appears steady without any significant fluctuations, suggesting stable capital investment over the period. The most notable increase occurred between 2020 and 2021, showing accelerated investment activity during these years.
- Market value added (MVA)
- Market value added, representing the difference between market value and invested capital, followed a pattern similar to market value. Starting at roughly $21.10 billion in 2018, MVA increased steadily, aside from a dip in 2020, ultimately reaching approximately $44.97 billion in 2022. This increase signifies improved wealth creation for shareholders, as the market values have risen faster than the capital invested.
Overall, the data indicates robust growth in market valuation, supported by steady investment increases, culminating in substantial value creation over the five years analyzed. The temporary decline in 2020 may reflect external market factors impacting valuation but was followed by a strong recovery.
