The current ratio exhibited a declining trend from 2021 to 2023, followed by a partial recovery in 2024. This indicates a shifting pattern in the company’s short-term liquidity position over the observed period.

Current Ratio Trend
In 2021, the current ratio stood at 5.05, representing a strong ability to cover short-term obligations with short-term assets. A substantial decrease was observed in 2022, with the ratio falling to 3.35. This decline continued into 2023, reaching a low of 1.71. The ratio then increased to 2.19 in 2024, suggesting some improvement in short-term liquidity, but remaining below the levels seen in 2021 and 2022.
Underlying Components
Current assets decreased from US$3,235,064 thousand in 2021 to US$1,939,083 thousand in 2022, and further to US$1,616,163 thousand in 2023. A subsequent increase to US$2,312,190 thousand was noted in 2024. Current liabilities also experienced fluctuations, decreasing from US$640,097 thousand in 2021 to US$578,958 thousand in 2022, then increasing to US$944,122 thousand in 2023, and finally reaching US$1,057,472 thousand in 2024. The combined effect of these changes in both current assets and current liabilities drove the observed trend in the current ratio.

The decrease in the current ratio from 2021 to 2023 suggests a potential weakening in the company’s capacity to meet its immediate financial obligations. The partial recovery in 2024 is a positive sign, but continued monitoring of this ratio is warranted to assess the sustainability of this improvement.
