The asset structure of the organization is characterized by a consistent prevalence of long-term assets over current assets, although a notable shift toward higher liquidity is observed toward the end of the analyzed period. Total current assets have fluctuated between approximately 28% and 39% of total assets, while long-term assets generally remained between 60% and 72%.

Liquidity and Short-Term Asset Trends
Cash and cash equivalents exhibit significant volatility, ranging from a low of 4.36% in early 2017 to peaks of 15.75% in March 2018 and 14.79% in September 2022. Marketable securities within current assets followed a similar fluctuating pattern, generally staying between 4% and 10% of total assets. Accounts receivable remained relatively stable throughout the period, typically oscillating between 6% and 8%, suggesting a consistent efficiency in credit management relative to the total asset base.
Inventory levels showed a gradual decline from 4.35% in 2017 to a low of 2.74% in September 2019, before trending upward to 5.53% by September 2022, indicating a possible increase in stock requirements or changes in production cycles.
Non-Current Asset Composition
A significant structural shift is evident in the intangible asset and goodwill accounts. Intangible assets, net, experienced a steady long-term decline from 19.36% in March 2017 to 8.08% by September 2022, likely reflecting the systemic amortization of these assets. Conversely, goodwill demonstrated a consistent upward trend, rising from 17.04% to a peak of 24.38% in March 2022, before stabilizing around 23.10%. This inverse relationship suggests that growth in non-physical assets has been driven more by acquisitions than by the creation or purchase of specific identifiable intangible assets.
Property, plant, and equipment, net, remained relatively stable, generally fluctuating within the 11% to 14% range, indicating that capital expenditures in physical infrastructure have kept pace with the overall growth of the balance sheet.
Other Asset Observations
Deferred tax assets showed a period of expansion, peaking at 11.95% in September 2019, followed by a steady contraction to 4.73% by September 2022. Investments and other assets also showed volatility, with a notable spike to 11.78% in December 2020 before retreating to 6.49% by the end of the period.

Overall, the data indicates a strategic transition in the asset mix. The organization has moved from a higher reliance on amortizable intangible assets toward a higher concentration of goodwill and a strengthened cash position by the end of the third quarter of 2022.
