Over the five-year period, FMC Corporation’s revenue grew from USD 4.64 billion in 2020 to a peak of USD 5.80 billion in 2022 before declining in subsequent years to USD 4.25 billion in 2024. Gross profit followed a similar trajectory, rising from USD 2.05 billion in 2020 to USD 2.33 billion in 2022, then dropping to USD 1.65 billion in 2024. Operating income also increased from USD 902 million in 2020 to USD 1.14 billion in 2022, but experienced a sharp decline to USD 506 million by 2024—a more than 55 percent decrease from its 2022 value. Notably, while net income initially increased from USD 551 million in 2020 to a high of USD 737 million in 2021 and remained there in 2022, it nearly doubled to USD 1.32 billion in 2023 before plummeting to USD 341 million in 2024. These swings, particularly the >20 percent year-over-year changes in operating income and net income during the 2023-2024 period, are significant and suggest underlying operational or financial restructurings. The fluctuations over this period may reflect shifts in market conditions or changes in cost structures, pricing power, and operational efficiency which are common in FMC’s industry, known for its cyclical demand and rigorous cost management requirements. The marked revenue and margin declines in the later years could indicate increased competitive pressures or adjustments in strategic initiatives. Overall, while the company demonstrated revenue growth in the earlier part of the period, the pronounced deterioration in operating income and the volatile net income trajectory raise concerns about operational sustainability. For stakeholders, the data suggests that while FMC has the potential for profitability, it must address the factors driving the recent declines to maintain long-term financial health.
