Balance Sheet: Assets
Quarterly Data
The balance sheet provides creditors, investors, and analysts with information on company resources (assets) and its sources of capital (its equity and liabilities). It normally also provides information about the future earnings capacity of a company assets as well as an indication of cash flows that may come from receivables and inventories.
Assets are resources controlled by the company as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity.

Total assets exhibited substantial growth over the analyzed period, increasing from $1.78 billion in March 2018 to $6.32 billion by September 2023. This expansion was driven by a combination of steady growth in operational current assets and a significant structural increase in noncurrent assets beginning in early 2020.
- Liquidity and Working Capital Trends
- Current assets grew from $1.17 billion in March 2018 to $2.70 billion in September 2023. A primary driver of this growth was the consistent increase in net accounts receivable, which rose from $361.5 million to $904.2 million. Inventory levels showed a marked escalation, increasing from $35.9 million in March 2018 to a peak of $338.8 million in December 2022, before settling at $296.2 million by September 2023. Cash and cash equivalents remained volatile but generally trended upward, ending the period at $1.24 billion, the highest level recorded in the dataset.
- Noncurrent Asset Evolution
- Noncurrent assets experienced a dramatic increase, rising from $614.0 million in March 2018 to $3.62 billion in September 2023. A pivotal shift occurred in March 2020, where deferred tax assets surged from $64.1 million in the previous quarter to $1.55 billion, remaining a dominant asset component through September 2023. Additionally, net property, plant, and equipment showed a steady upward trajectory, growing from $400.5 million to $1.27 billion, indicating sustained investment in physical infrastructure.
- Intangibles and Strategic Assets
- The composition of the balance sheet shifted in December 2020 with the introduction of goodwill and net intangible assets, valued at $444.8 million and $130.1 million respectively. These assets remained relatively stable through 2023, with goodwill fluctuating slightly around the $400 million mark. Operating lease right-of-use assets also saw a gradual increase, rising from $56.4 million in March 2019 to $119.0 million by September 2023.
- Asset Composition Analysis
- In the early stages of the period (2018-2019), current assets represented the majority of the total asset base. However, following the surge in deferred tax assets and the addition of goodwill in 2020, the balance sheet transitioned toward a heavier weighting of noncurrent assets. By September 2023, noncurrent assets comprised approximately 57% of the total asset value, compared to approximately 34% in March 2018.
