The asset composition of the entity demonstrates notable shifts over the analyzed period, spanning from March 31, 2021, to December 31, 2025. Overall, total assets exhibited a general upward trajectory, although with some fluctuations, increasing from approximately $11.54 billion to $20.46 billion. A significant portion of this growth is attributable to changes within current and long-term asset categories.
- Liquidity and Current Assets
- Current assets initially remained relatively stable between March 2021 and September 2021, fluctuating around $6.0 billion. A substantial increase began in March 2022, peaking at $9.78 billion by December 2025. This growth was primarily driven by increases in accounts receivable, inventory, and notably, cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents experienced a significant surge in the period from March 2023 to June 2023, reaching $3.44 billion, before decreasing to $3.37 billion by December 2025. Accounts receivable also showed consistent growth, nearly doubling from $654.3 million to $1.53 billion over the period. Inventory levels also increased substantially, rising from $576.8 million to $1.84 billion. Prepaids and other current assets showed moderate growth, with some quarterly volatility.
- Long-Term Investments and Fixed Assets
- Long-term assets also increased overall, but with more pronounced fluctuations. Long-term investments peaked in September 2021 at $4.13 billion, then decreased to $3.099 billion by December 2025. Property, plant, and equipment, net, demonstrated a consistent upward trend, increasing from $1.59 billion to $5.34 billion. Deferred tax assets also showed a steady increase, rising from $336.6 million to $1.02 billion. Intangible and other assets remained relatively stable, with a slight increase over the period, while goodwill remained consistent at approximately $348 million.
- Overall Asset Composition
- The proportion of current assets to total assets increased over the period. In March 2021, current assets represented approximately 52.4% of total assets, while by December 2025, this figure had risen to approximately 58.4%. This suggests a growing reliance on short-term assets relative to long-term investments. The increase in long-term assets, particularly property, plant, and equipment, indicates potential investment in operational capacity. The fluctuations in long-term investments suggest active portfolio management or changes in investment strategy.
In summary, the entity experienced significant asset growth, driven by increases in both current and long-term assets. The composition of assets shifted towards a greater proportion of current assets, while investments in fixed assets also increased substantially. These trends suggest a period of expansion and potentially increased liquidity.
