Trade Payables
Trade payables exhibited fluctuations with a general upward trend from $145 million in early 2019 to peaks above $360 million by 2024–2025, indicating increasing vendor credit or purchases on account over the period.
Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities
This category showed a consistent upward trajectory from about $1.17 billion in early 2019 to approximately $2.3 billion by mid-2025, reflecting rising short-term obligations or accrued costs linked to operations.
Current Portion of Debt
Current debt showed a spike in mid-2019 with values around $3.1 billion, followed by periods with missing data suggesting variable reporting or debt refinancing. Later values resume at around $500 million and rise to approximately $1.5 billion by 2025, implying changes in short-term debt obligations.
Deferred Revenue (Current)
Current deferred revenue increased steadily from about $3.1 billion to nearly $6.4 billion by early 2025, indicating growing amounts of customer payments received in advance of revenue recognition, likely connected to subscription or licensing models.
Income Taxes Payable
Income taxes payable fluctuated throughout the period with notable volatility; after modest levels near $20 million in early 2019, spikes occurred reaching up to $857 million in late 2022, followed by a return to lower values. This suggests changes in tax obligations due to profitability or tax planning.
Current Operating Lease Liabilities
Current operating lease liabilities appeared starting in late 2019 at approximately $84 million, remained relatively steady around $70–$90 million thereafter, reflecting stable lease obligations under accounting standards for operating leases.
Total Current Liabilities
Current liabilities increased overall from about $5.3 billion in 2019 to peaks exceeding $10.5 billion by late 2024, indicating expansion of short-term financial obligations in line with business growth.
Debt, Excluding Current Portion
Long-term debt showed considerable variation, with a low near $988 million in 2019, peaking over $6 billion in 2025 periods. The fluctuations likely reflect debt issuance, repayments, and refinancing activities.
Non-Current Deferred Revenue
Non-current deferred revenue remained relatively stable, fluctuating slightly between $108 million and $151 million, suggesting consistent long-term advance revenue recognition balance.
Income Taxes Payable (Non-Current)
Long-term income taxes payable exhibited modest decline from about $655 million to levels near $477 million, indicating decreasing deferred tax liabilities or settlements over time.
Long-Term Operating Lease Liabilities
Long-term operating lease liabilities decreased gradually from $514 million in mid-2020 to values near $323 million by mid-2025, reflecting lease amortization or contract terminations.
Other Liabilities
Other liabilities fluctuated without a clear trend, generally staying within the $233 million to $540 million range, indicating relatively stable miscellaneous obligations.
Total Long-Term Liabilities
Total long-term liabilities rose from about $4.3 billion in early 2019 to a peak near $7.7 billion by late 2025, evidencing increased leverage or long-term obligations over the period.
Total Liabilities
Total liabilities gradually increased from approximately $9.6 billion to over $16.9 billion by 2025, paralleling business expansion and increased financial commitments.
Preferred Stock and Common Stock
There were no reported issuances of preferred stock, and common stock par values remained at zero, suggesting no changes in share capital structure on this basis.
Additional Paid-In Capital
Additional paid-in capital steadily increased from $5.9 billion to nearly $15 billion, indicating ongoing equity financing or stock issuance activities supporting growth.
Retained Earnings
Retained earnings rose consistently from about $12.6 billion to over $43.5 billion, reflecting sustained profitability and reinvestment of earnings over time.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
This account showed fluctuating but generally increasing losses, deepening from approximately -$150 million to about -$340 million, implying ongoing adverse valuation adjustments or currency impacts.
Treasury Stock
Treasury stock balance grew significantly from -$8.4 billion to nearly -$46.4 billion, demonstrating substantial share repurchases over the period, contributing to equity reduction.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity was somewhat volatile, increasing from roughly $9.9 billion to a peak exceeding $16.5 billion in 2023 before declining to about $11.8 billion by mid-2025, influenced by treasury stock repurchases and other comprehensive loss impacts despite growth in retained earnings and paid-in capital.
Total Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
The combined total rose from about $19.5 billion in early 2019 to a peak of nearly $30.3 billion by late 2024, with a slight drop thereafter, reflecting overall growth in the company’s asset base funded by a mix of liabilities and equity.
