The quarterly financial data exhibits several notable trends and fluctuations in the company's liabilities, equity, and related financial metrics over the period from March 2018 through June 2023.
- Accounts Payable
- This liability category shows variability without a clear upward or downward trend, fluctuating between approximately 158 million US$ and 324 million US$ over the reported periods. Peaks are observable late in 2020 and 2022, indicating potential changes in supplier credit terms or short-term payment strategies.
- Deferred Revenues
- Deferred revenues present a cyclical pattern, with quarters typically displaying fluctuations that possibly correspond to seasonality in the company’s revenue recognition. Values range broadly from around 695 million US$ to over 2 billion US$, with notable spikes at year-end quarters, especially December 2022. This suggests an increase in prepayments or contract liabilities towards these periods.
- Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities
- This line item exhibits periodic rises and falls, generally staying within a range of approximately 700 million US$ to 1.5 billion US$. Changes may be associated with operational costs or variable accrual policies across quarters.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities fluctuate substantially, corresponding partly with changes in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and deferred revenues. The range moves from around 1.6 billion US$ to over 3.5 billion US$, with pronounced peaks occurring at year-ends, indicating seasonal or operational cyclical effects on short-term obligations.
- Long-term Debt, Net
- Long-term debt remains mostly stable across the periods with a significant increase occurring between June 2020 and September 2020, rising from approximately 2.7 billion US$ to 3.6 billion US$. Post this rise, the amount remains constant around 3.6 billion US$. This increase reflects a significant debt issuance or refinancing during 2020.
- Deferred Income Taxes, Net
- Deferred income taxes exhibit a considerable jump in late 2018 to early 2019, from low double-digit millions to over 500 million US$, and maintain fluctuating levels thereafter. The elevated balance in this period might indicate changes in tax timing differences or tax regulation impacts.
- Other Liabilities
- This category trends downward slightly from approximately 1.2 billion US$ to under 800 million US$, indicating a slow reduction or reclassification of other liabilities over time.
- Non-current Liabilities
- Non-current liabilities remain relatively stable with minor fluctuations, mostly within the range of 3.8 billion US$ to 5 billion US$. These variations are consistent with the changes seen in long-term debt and deferred tax liabilities.
- Total Liabilities
- Total liabilities exhibit volatility corresponding to movements in both current and non-current liabilities. The range is from about 5.5 billion US$ to over 8 billion US$, with peaks occurring typically at December quarters of 2020 and 2022, aligning with elevated deferred revenues and accrued expenses.
- Additional Paid-in Capital
- This equity component shows a steady, gradual increase from about 10.8 billion US$ to nearly 12.5 billion US$, indicating consistent capital contributions or share issuances over time.
- Treasury Stock, at Cost
- The treasury stock balance remains constant at approximately -5.6 billion US$, indicating no substantial repurchase or reissuance of shares during the period.
- Retained Earnings
- Retained earnings reflect continuous growth from roughly 5.2 billion US$ to nearly 14.5 billion US$, pointing to accumulated profits being retained in the business over the periods analyzed.
- Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
- This item remains fairly stable with slight fluctuations around -600 million US$. There are no significant movements, suggesting relatively steady comprehensive income components such as foreign currency adjustments or unrealized losses/gains.
- Shareholders’ Equity
- Shareholders’ equity increases consistently from approximately 9.8 billion US$ to over 20.7 billion US$, supported mainly by increases in retained earnings and additional paid-in capital. This trend indicates overall growth in the company's net worth during the reporting period.
- Total Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity
- The aggregate of liabilities and equity steadily rises from about 18.4 billion US$ to nearly 28.5 billion US$, reflecting overall expansion of the company's asset base funded through a combination of liabilities and shareholders’ equity.
