The analysis of the annual financial data reveals several notable trends in the liquidity position over the assessed periods.
- Current Assets
- The value of current assets exhibited fluctuations throughout the periods. Initially, current assets rose from approximately 2.1 billion US dollars in early 2005 to exceed 4 billion by 2012. After reaching this peak, a general downward trend is observed, with current assets declining to approximately 2.36 billion US dollars by early 2022. This indicates that the company's liquid assets have decreased notably in recent years from their previous highs.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities generally increased over time, starting at around 0.87 billion US dollars in 2005 and rising to a peak near 2.46 billion US dollars by 2020. After 2020, current liabilities showed a slight decline, ending the period at approximately 2.07 billion US dollars in 2022. The increasing current liabilities through most years suggest growing short-term obligations, which may affect the liquidity burden.
- Current Ratio
- The current ratio, a measure of short-term financial health, demonstrated a declining trend across the periods. Beginning with a strong ratio of 2.4 in 2005, the ratio experienced fluctuations but maintained values above 2 until 2015. Post-2015, a steady decline is evident, with the current ratio falling to 1.14 by 2022. The decrease below the critical benchmark of 1.5 suggests a weakening ability to cover short-term liabilities with current assets, signaling increased liquidity risk.
Overall, the data indicates that despite periods of strong liquidity evidenced by high current assets and stable current ratios, there has been a diminishing liquidity trend over the most recent years. This decline is characterized by reduced current assets, persistent high current liabilities, and a current ratio approaching the threshold that may raise concern regarding the company’s capacity to meet its short-term obligations independently.
