    Total Revenue

    Approximately +497% increase from Q4 2023’s 660,133 thousand USD to roughly 3,900,000–3,950,000 thousand USD (~$3.92B)

    Dramatic revenue growth is driven by a massive expansion in the business scale, likely from strategic acquisitions and market consolidation that expanded the revenue base manyfold compared to the previous period.

    Operating Income

    Increased from 68,489 thousand USD in Q4 2023 to approximately 290,000–295,000 thousand USD in Q4 2024

    The substantial improvement in operating income reflects the benefits of revenue synergies and improved cost management as the company reaped the advantages of its expanded scale versus the prior quarter’s lower figure.

    Capital Expenditures (CapEx)

    Reported at roughly 380,000–385,000 thousand USD in Q4 2024; while a direct YoY percentage isn’t stated, it signals heavy reinvestment

    The significant reinvestment in CapEx indicates that the company is funding its growth and expansion through major asset investments. This level of spending supports future capacity improvements compared to prior, smaller investment levels.

    Cash and Cash Equivalents

    Positioned at about 800,000–820,000 thousand USD in Q4 2024

    The strong liquidity position demonstrates enhanced cash generation and improved working capital management, supporting further investments and operational resilience compared to earlier periods where lower cash might have been a limitation.

    Depreciation & Amortization (D&A)

    Recorded at approximately 405,000–409,000 thousand USD in Q4 2024

    The increased D&A expense reflects the larger asset base acquired over the period—stemming from elevated CapEx and acquisition activity—which naturally raises the annual depreciation and amortization charges relative to the previous period.

    Interest Expense

    Recorded at about 205,000–209,000 thousand USD in Q4 2024

    The notable interest expense suggests increased leverage to finance the expansion and CapEx investments. Higher debt levels and possibly rising borrowing costs have contributed to interest charges that are substantially higher than in previous periods.
