- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio remained very low throughout the period, starting at 0.02 in March 2020 and showing minor fluctuations around 0.05 to 0.06 from 2021 through early 2024. A slight downward trend is observable in mid-2024, reaching 0.03 before spiking sharply to 0.07 in the final quarter of the dataset. This overall low level indicates minimal reliance on debt relative to equity, with a late period increase warranting attention.
- Debt to Equity Ratio (Including Operating Lease Liability)
- This ratio is consistently higher than the basic debt to equity ratio, indicating the impact of operating lease liabilities on leverage. Values hovered around 0.10 to 0.11 from mid-2020 to early 2023, then exhibited a gradual decrease to 0.07 in early 2025 before increasing sharply to 0.10 in the last quarter. The trend suggests stable but moderately leveraged obligations under leases, with some increase in leverage risk at the end of the observed period.
- Debt to Capital Ratio
- The debt to capital ratio mirrors the trend of the debt to equity ratio, with initial values near 0.02 in early 2020, increasing to around 0.05 throughout 2022, and slightly declining to 0.03 by early 2025. The ratio again spikes to 0.06 at the dataset’s conclusion. This indicates a consistently low proportion of debt in the total capital structure, albeit with a notable increase towards the end.
- Debt to Capital Ratio (Including Operating Lease Liability)
- The broader measure including operating lease liabilities shows a similar pattern, with ratios around 0.09 to 0.10 across most periods, followed by a subtle decrease to 0.06 in early 2025, then rising again to 0.09 at the end. This reflects a steady leverage level when including lease obligations, with minor volatility at the close.
- Debt to Assets Ratio
- The debt to assets ratio remained low, between 0.01 and 0.04, indicating minimal use of debt in relation to total assets. The metric declined slightly towards early 2025, ending at 0.02 before increasing to 0.05 in the final period. This suggests stable asset financing primarily through means other than debt with a late uptick in debt usage.
- Debt to Assets Ratio (Including Operating Lease Liability)
- When factoring in operating lease liabilities, this ratio ranged between 0.05 and 0.08 in the middle periods, stabilizing around 0.07 thereafter, with a slight decline noted towards early 2025. The final quarter shows an increase back to 0.07, indicative of consistent asset leverage including lease obligations over time but some increase towards the end.
- Financial Leverage
- The financial leverage ratio remained relatively stable, starting at 1.34 in early 2020, increasing gradually to peaks around 1.43 to 1.45 during 2022–2023, and then slowly decreasing to approximately 1.38 by mid-2025. This suggests a consistent degree of reliance on debt relative to equity over the observed period without significant volatility.
- Overall Observations
- The financial leverage and various debt ratios present a stable profile characterized by low debt utilization relative to equity, capital, and assets. Minor fluctuations and a small upward trend in the final periods indicate increased borrowing or lease obligations, suggesting a potential shift in capital structure strategy or increased external financing needs. The inclusion of operating lease liabilities consistently raises the debt-related ratios, underscoring the importance of lease obligations in assessing total leverage.

- Total Debt
- Over the presented periods, total debt exhibits notable fluctuations. Initially, there is a decrease from 5,016 million USD in Q1 2020 to 4,018 million USD in Q2 2020. This is followed by a sharp increase to 13,902 million USD in Q3 2020, remaining relatively stable around 14,000 to 15,000 million USD through the end of 2022. Starting from early 2023, total debt demonstrates a gradual declining trend, reducing from 13,697 million USD to 10,886 million USD by mid-2025. However, a sudden and substantial increase occurs in Q2 2025, with total debt rising to 23,607 million USD, which marks the highest level across the entire span.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity shows a consistent upward trajectory throughout the observed timeframe. Beginning at 203,659 million USD in Q1 2020, it steadily increases each quarter without any evident declines or plateaus. By mid-2025, equity reaches 362,916 million USD, representing an approximate 78% increase from the initial value. This steady rise suggests ongoing accumulation of retained earnings or additional capital contributions over time.
- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio follows a pattern influenced by the movements in total debt and equity. Initially very low (0.02) in early 2020, it spikes to 0.07 in Q3 2020, corresponding with the surge in total debt. For the subsequent quarters through 2022, the ratio stabilizes around 0.06, reflecting a balance between moderately high debt and growing equity. Throughout 2023 and into early 2025, the ratio gradually decreases from around 0.05 to a low of 0.03, indicating reduced leverage or better equity growth relative to debt. Nevertheless, a sharp increase to 0.07 is observed again in Q2 2025, consistent with the marked rise in debt at that time.

1 Q2 2025 Calculation
Debt to equity (including operating lease liability) = Total debt (including operating lease liability) ÷ Stockholders’ equity
= 35,559 ÷ 362,916 = 0.10
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total Debt (including operating lease liability)
- The total debt fluctuates over the observed quarters, starting at 15,492 million USD in March 2020 and reaching a peak of 35,559 million USD by June 2025. Initially, the total debt rose sharply from mid-2020 to the end of 2020, surpassing 24,000 million USD. After this increase, debt levels mostly stabilized and experienced minor fluctuations around the 25,000 to 27,000 million USD range from 2021 through early 2024. Starting in mid-2024, a notable rise occurred again, culminating in a significant jump by mid-2025.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity consistently increased throughout the entire period, demonstrating a strong upward trend. Beginning at 203,659 million USD in March 2020, equity rose steadily each quarter, reaching 362,916 million USD by June 2025. This persistent growth indicates accumulation of retained earnings and capital appreciation, with no periods of decline or plateau observed.
- Debt to Equity Ratio (including operating lease liability)
- The debt to equity ratio exhibits a pattern closely related to the movements in total debt and equity. Starting at 0.08 in March 2020, the ratio jumped to 0.12 by September 2020 during the initial increase in debt levels. Afterward, it fluctuated between 0.07 and 0.11 through 2021 and 2022, reflecting relatively stable debt relative to steadily increasing equity. From 2023 to early 2025, the ratio gradually declined, reaching a low of 0.07, indicative of stronger equity relative to debt. However, by June 2025, the ratio rose sharply to 0.10, corresponding with the significant increase in total debt observed in the same period.
- Summary of Financial Position Trends
- The company exhibits overall financial strengthening with steadily rising equity, which enhances its capital base over time. Total debt shows periods of significant increase, particularly in late 2020 and mid-2025, suggesting strategic leveraging possibly for expansion or investment purposes. Despite these debt spikes, the debt to equity ratio remains relatively low throughout most of the period, highlighting a conservative leverage position. The recent sharp increase in debt and corresponding rise in the debt to equity ratio warrants monitoring to assess impact on financial risk.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total Debt
- The total debt exhibited a general rise from early 2020 through the end of 2021, increasing from approximately 5 billion to roughly 14.8 billion USD. Following this peak, debt levels remained relatively stable through 2022 and 2023 with minor fluctuations around 13.5 to 14 billion USD. Starting in early 2024, there was a notable reduction in debt, dropping to approximately 10.9 billion USD by mid-2025. However, the last data point indicates a sharp and significant increase, reaching 23.6 billion USD.
- Total Capital
- Total capital showed a steady upward trend across the entire period. Starting from about 209 billion USD in the first quarter of 2020, the figure grew consistently each quarter, exceeding 386 billion USD by mid-2025. This demonstrates a strong capital base growth over time, reflecting either accumulation of equity, retained earnings, or additional capital investments, and suggests overall financial expansion.
- Debt to Capital Ratio
- The debt to capital ratio remained low throughout the period, initially around 0.02 in early 2020. It increased to approximately 0.06 by late 2020 and stayed around this level through 2021 and early 2022. Subsequently, this ratio gradually declined, reaching around 0.03 by mid-2025, indicating a reduction in leverage relative to capital. Notably, the final datapoint shows a return to 0.06, corresponding with the sharp increase in total debt at that time.
- Summary
- Overall, the company maintained a low level of leverage with a debt to capital ratio mostly below 0.06, indicative of a conservative capital structure. The consistent growth in total capital underscores financial robustness and likely capacity for further investment. The initial rise in debt followed by a period of stability and then debt reduction suggests active management of liabilities, possibly to optimize cost of capital or respond to funding needs. The abrupt spike in debt in the last quarter may indicate a new financing event or strategic initiative requiring substantial borrowing.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The analysis of the debt and capital structure over the reported periods reveals several key trends and changes. Total debt, including operating lease liabilities, exhibited significant fluctuations, especially noticeable in the increase from mid-2025. Throughout most quarters, total debt hovered around the 25,000 to 27,000 million US$ range, with a peak reaching over 35,000 million US$ by the end of June 2025, indicating a substantial rise in liabilities during this last period.
Total capital, which also includes operating lease liabilities, demonstrated a consistent upward trend across the entire timeframe. Starting from about 219,151 million US$ in early 2020, the capital base steadily grew almost every quarter, reaching nearly 398,475 million US$ by mid-2025. This steady increase reflects progressive expansion in overall financing and resources over the period studied.
The debt to capital ratio, which measures the proportion of debt relative to total capital, has generally remained low, fluctuating between 0.06 and 0.10. This indicates a relatively conservative leverage position for the entity, with debt constituting between 6% to 10% of total capital most of the time. Notably, there was a dip in this ratio in the years following 2021, reaching lows around 0.06, suggesting improving capital structure or controlled debt levels during those quarters.
However, a reversal is observed in the last reported quarter (June 2025), where the debt to capital ratio rises back to 0.09, corresponding to the sharp increase in total debt during the same period. This could imply a strategic decision to increase leverage or a temporary accumulation of debt relative to capital.
- Total debt (including operating lease liability)
- Fluctuated modestly from early 2020 until early 2025, mostly staying in the 25,000 to 27,000 million US$ range, with a significant surge to over 35,000 million US$ in mid-2025.
- Total capital (including operating lease liability)
- Displayed a continuous growth trajectory from 219,151 million US$ in early 2020 to nearly 398,475 million US$ by mid-2025, signifying strong accumulation of resources or financing.
- Debt to capital ratio
- Remained low and stable between 0.06 and 0.10 throughout most quarters, indicating prudent leverage management. Noteworthy is the ratio's decline post-2021, reaching lows near 0.06, before increasing to 0.09 in mid-2025 due to the recent debt rise.
In summary, the entity maintained a robust capital base while managing debt at relatively low levels for the majority of the periods. The sudden increase in debt towards mid-2025 and the associated uptick in the leverage ratio may warrant further investigation to understand the causes and implications of this shift.

Initially, it decreased from 5,016 million USD at the end of March 2020 to 4,018 million USD in June 2020, followed by a significant increase reaching a peak of 14,932 million USD at the end of December 2020. Subsequently, total debt remained relatively stable around the 14,000 to 15,000 million USD range through 2021 and the first part of 2022. From the second half of 2022 onwards, a gradual downward trend is observable, with total debt decreasing steadily to approximately 10,886 million USD by June 2025. An exceptional spike occurs at the last data point, rising sharply to 23,607 million USD in June 2025.
- Total Assets
- Total assets demonstrated a consistent upward trend throughout the entire period. Starting at 273,403 million USD in March 2020, assets increased steadily each quarter, reaching 319,616 million USD by December 2020. This growth trajectory continued unabated, surpassing 400,000 million USD by the end of 2023 and culminating near 502,053 million USD by June 2025. There are no noticeable periods of decline or stagnation in asset growth, indicating a strong expansion in the company’s asset base.
- Debt to Assets Ratio
- The debt to assets ratio fluctuated within a narrow band during most quarters. It started at 0.02 in March 2020, decreased briefly to 0.01 in June 2020, then increased to 0.05 by September 2020 before stabilizing around 0.03 to 0.04 for the following quarters up to early 2024. Post that period, the ratio showed a slight decline reaching 0.02 in mid-2025, reflecting a relative reduction in leverage compared to asset growth. However, the ratio surged abruptly to 0.05 in the last recorded quarter, coinciding with the sharp rise in total debt.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total debt (including operating lease liability)
- Over the observed periods, the total debt shows a generally stable pattern with values fluctuating around the 25,000 to 27,000 million US dollars mark between March 2020 and June 2025. There is a notable peak at the end of the period in June 2025, where debt jumps significantly to approximately 35,559 million US dollars, marking a considerable increase compared to previous quarters.
- Total assets
- Total assets exhibit a clear and consistent upward trend throughout the entire timeline. Starting from approximately 273,403 million US dollars in March 2020, assets increase steadily each quarter, reaching over 500,000 million US dollars by June 2025. This continuous growth suggests expanding asset base and possibly increased investment or accumulation of resources over time.
- Debt to assets ratio (including operating lease liability)
- The debt to assets ratio remains relatively low and stable across the majority of the periods analyzed, consistently staying within a narrow range of 0.05 to 0.08. This indicates that debt forms a small proportion of total assets, reflecting a conservative leverage position. However, towards the end of the period, particularly in June 2025, the ratio increases to 0.07, likely linked to the significant rise in total debt observed in the same quarter. Prior to this, the ratio exhibits a slight decline towards 0.05 in early 2025, implying improved asset coverage relative to debt before the sudden shift.

1 Q2 2025 Calculation
Financial leverage = Total assets ÷ Stockholders’ equity
= 502,053 ÷ 362,916 = 1.38
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The financial data over the observed periods reveals notable trends in total assets, stockholders’ equity, and financial leverage.
- Total assets
- Total assets demonstrate a consistent upward trend, increasing steadily from US$273,403 million at the end of March 2020 to US$502,053 million by the end of June 2025. This reflects a near doubling over the five-year timeframe, indicating ongoing expansion in the company's asset base. The growth appears fairly smooth with no significant interruptions or declines, suggesting stability and sustained investment or accumulation of assets over time.
- Stockholders’ equity
- Stockholders’ equity also shows a continuous increase, rising from US$203,659 million to US$362,916 million during the same period. The increase is steady and consistent, pointing to accumulated retained earnings or new equity contributions over time. The equity growth trend is in line with total assets growth, indicative of a balanced expansion of the company’s capital base.
- Financial leverage
- The financial leverage ratio remains relatively stable within a tight band, fluctuating between 1.34 and 1.45 in the earlier periods and gradually trending downward to about 1.38 by the end of the observed periods. This moderate leverage level suggests a conservative approach to debt usage relative to equity, maintaining a stable capital structure without significant increases in financial risk. The slight decrease in leverage in the later years indicates strengthening equity relative to total assets, which enhances financial stability.
Overall, the data reflects consistent asset and equity growth alongside steady financial leverage, which collectively suggest sound financial health with controlled risk exposure throughout the periods analyzed.
