The asset structure exhibits a significant structural shift beginning in February 2024, characterized by a massive expansion of the balance sheet. Total assets transitioned from a range of 71 billion to 81 billion US dollars between 2020 and 2023 to a new baseline exceeding 160 billion US dollars from 2024 onward, peaking at 179.1 billion US dollars by May 2026.

Acquisition-Driven Asset Growth
A substantial increase in non-current assets occurred in February 2024, where Goodwill rose from 43.6 billion US dollars to 97.5 billion US dollars, and net Intangible assets jumped from 3.8 billion US dollars to 47.1 billion US dollars. This pattern indicates a major corporate acquisition. Following this event, intangible assets have undergone steady amortization, declining to 28.3 billion US dollars by May 2026.
Working Capital and Liquidity Trends
Current assets demonstrated a marked upward trajectory, growing from 12.1 billion US dollars in February 2020 to 42.2 billion US dollars by May 2026. Cash and cash equivalents remained relatively stable for several years but showed an accelerating trend in late 2025 and 2026, reaching 19.6 billion US dollars. Trade accounts receivable exhibited an aggressive increase starting in February 2024, climbing from approximately 3.1 billion US dollars to 10.8 billion US dollars by the end of the period, suggesting an increase in credit sales or a change in revenue recognition scale.
Inventory and Operational Assets
Inventory levels remained controlled between 900 million and 2 billion US dollars for the majority of the timeline but experienced a sharp spike in 2026, reaching 4.3 billion US dollars. In contrast, Property, Plant, and Equipment (PP&E) remained remarkably stagnant, fluctuating minimally between 2.1 billion and 2.7 billion US dollars, indicating that the company's growth is driven by intellectual property and acquisitions rather than physical infrastructure expansion.
Long-Term Asset Composition
The composition of long-term assets shifted from a declining trend—dropping from 68.8 billion US dollars in 2020 to 52.0 billion US dollars in late 2023—to a massive expansion to 150.6 billion US dollars in early 2024. While Goodwill remained flat post-acquisition, the overall decline in long-term assets toward 136.9 billion US dollars by May 2026 is primarily attributed to the systematic amortization of the acquired intangible assets.
