The financial data over the five-year period displays several notable trends across various asset categories. A detailed examination reveals shifts in liquidity, asset composition, and the valuation of intangible assets.
- Liquidity and Current Assets
- Cash and cash equivalents exhibit a declining trend, decreasing from 998 million US dollars in 2020 to 459 million by the end of 2024, indicating a reduction in readily available cash resources. In contrast, accounts receivable show a consistent increase from 2201 million to 3097 million, suggesting growth in credit sales or billing volumes. Prepaid expenses and other current assets fluctuate but overall show an upward movement towards the end of the period, increasing notably in 2024 to 677 million from a low of 386 million in 2021. Current assets collectively show a slight increase from 3906 million in 2020 to 4233 million in 2024, reflecting moderate growth in short-term asset holdings.
- Investment in Property and Equipment
- Property, plant, and equipment (net) reflect steady growth throughout the period, increasing from 34357 million US dollars in 2020 to 42913 million in 2024. This trend suggests ongoing capital expenditures and investment in physical infrastructure.
- Intangible Assets
- Customer relationships, net of amortization or impairment, demonstrate a marked decline from 5615 million in 2020 to 975 million in 2024, indicating significant amortization or asset impairment over the years. Franchises are relatively stable, showing slight incremental growth from 67322 million to 67462 million, implying limited change in franchise valuations. Goodwill values remain mostly constant, with a modest increase from 29554 million in 2020 to 29674 million in 2024, suggesting stability in acquisitions or no major write-downs.
- Investment in Cable Properties and Other Noncurrent Assets
- Investment in cable properties, net, remains the largest asset category and shows a steady upward trajectory from 136848 million in 2020 to 141024 million in 2024, indicating incremental additions or capital appreciation. Other noncurrent assets increase moderately from 3449 million to 4763 million over the period, reflecting growth in miscellaneous long-term assets.
- Overall Asset Base
- Noncurrent assets collectively show a gradual increase, rising from 140300 million to 145787 million, supporting the overall trend of asset base expansion. Consequently, total assets also increase from 144206 million in 2020 to 150020 million in 2024, indicating a consistent growth in the company's total resources over the period.
