Revenue consistently increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6%, rising from $41.37 billion in 2023 to $48.83 billion in 2025. This growth was accompanied by significant margin expansion, with the gross margin improving by 22.7 percentage points to 44.3%, and the operating margin increasing by 7.8 percentage points to 16.0%. The net margin also saw a notable rise of 5.6 percentage points, reaching 12.9% by 2025. Earnings per share (EPS) surged at an impressive CAGR of 46.4%, from $12.79 to $27.43, further amplified by a slight reduction in share count. The company's cash generation capabilities strengthened, with both operating and free cash flow growing at a 17.3% CAGR, reaching $10.61 billion by 2025, and the free cash flow margin expanding to 21.7%. Despite an increase in net debt from $7.53 billion to $8.43 billion, the company's financial health remains strong, evidenced by a high interest coverage ratio of 19.3x. Working capital efficiency improved, as indicated by a reduction in the cash conversion cycle from 132 days to 75 days. However, the cash conversion ratio declined to 1.69, suggesting a slight deterioration in earnings quality. Overall, the company has effectively leveraged its revenue growth to enhance profitability and cash flow, while maintaining solid liquidity and coverage metrics.
