The balance sheet exhibits a significant expansion over the analyzed period, with total liabilities and stockholders' equity increasing from 327.1 billion USD in March 2021 to 922.0 billion USD by June 2026. This growth reflects a substantial increase in both the company's obligations and its accumulated equity base.

Current Liabilities Trends
Current liabilities more than doubled, rising from 55.5 billion USD in March 2021 to 126.1 billion USD by June 2026. The most prominent driver of this increase was accrued expenses and other current liabilities, which grew from 32.6 billion USD to 73.0 billion USD. Accounts payable also experienced a sharp upward trajectory, increasing from 4.8 billion USD to 20.3 billion USD. Accrued compensation and benefits displayed a consistent seasonal pattern, typically peaking in the fourth quarter of each year before declining in the first quarter.
Long-Term Obligations and Debt Escalation
Long-term liabilities remained relatively stable between March 2021 and December 2024, fluctuating between 35.3 billion USD and 43.4 billion USD. However, a period of rapid expansion began in 2025. Long-term debt, excluding the current portion, surged from 10.9 billion USD in December 2024 to 98.2 billion USD by June 2026. This acceleration resulted in total long-term liabilities increasing from 41.6 billion USD at the start of the period to 155.4 billion USD by the end of the analyzed timeframe.
Stockholders' Equity and Retained Earnings
Stockholders' equity demonstrated strong and consistent growth, increasing from 230.0 billion USD in March 2021 to 640.5 billion USD in June 2026. This expansion was primarily fueled by a massive accumulation of retained earnings, which grew from 170.6 billion USD to 493.4 billion USD, indicating high profitability and a strategy of reinvesting earnings back into the company. Additionally, paid-in capital for Class A, B, and C stocks increased from 59.4 billion USD to 131.4 billion USD.
Overall Capital Structure and Solvency
Despite the aggressive increase in long-term debt and current liabilities during 2025 and 2026, the company maintained a strong solvency position due to the concurrent growth in equity. Total liabilities increased from 97.1 billion USD to 281.5 billion USD, while stockholders' equity grew from 230.0 billion USD to 640.5 billion USD. The relative balance between liabilities and equity remained stable, as the growth in retained earnings effectively offset the increased leverage taken on in the later periods.
