Balance Sheet: Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
Quarterly Data
The balance sheet provides creditors, investors, and analysts with information on company resources (assets) and its sources of capital (its equity and liabilities). It normally also provides information about the future earnings capacity of a company assets as well as an indication of cash flows that may come from receivables and inventories.
Liabilities represents obligations of a company arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow of economic benefits from the entity.

- Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
- The balance generally increased over the analyzed period, rising from approximately 8.4 billion in early 2019 to over 11.2 billion by the end of 2023. This indicates a gradual growth in short-term obligations related to supplier accounts and accrued expenses.
- Current portion of long-term debt
- This figure showed volatility across periods, with notable peaks above 4.5 billion in early 2020 and again in early 2022, but otherwise mostly fluctuated between 1 and 3 billion. This irregular pattern suggests timing differences in debt maturities coming due within one year.
- Current liabilities
- Current liabilities increased from just under 12 billion in Q1 2019 to above 13 billion by the end of 2023. The data shows some quarter-to-quarter fluctuation, with a decrease in mid-2020 followed by a steady rise, indicating variability in short-term debts and obligations.
- Long-term debt, less current portion
- The long-term debt balance rose consistently over the five-year period, from about 70.6 billion to approximately 95.8 billion. This steady increase points to growing leverage or ongoing financing activities through long-term borrowings.
- Deferred income taxes
- Deferred income tax liabilities remained relatively stable, hovering around 17.4 to 19 billion throughout the period. Minor increments signal some tax timing differences but overall this liability remained stable in size relative to the company’s scale.
- Other long-term liabilities
- Other long-term liabilities moved modestly upward from around 3.6 billion to about 4.5 billion, with some fluctuations in between. This suggests incremental non-debt long-term obligations possibly related to pensions, leases, or other accruals.
- Long-term liabilities (total)
- Overall long-term liabilities increased steadily from approximately 91.7 billion to around 119.3 billion, reflecting the combined growth in long-term debt, deferred taxes, and other long-term accruals.
- Total liabilities
- Total liabilities rose from approximately 103.6 billion in early 2019 to about 132.5 billion by the end of 2023, representing a clear upward trend in the company’s total obligations over the five years.
- Additional paid-in capital
- Additional paid-in capital experienced some fluctuations with a general decline from about 33.6 billion in early 2019 to around 23.3 billion by late 2023, reflecting potential share repurchases or equity transactions reducing this component.
- Retained earnings (accumulated deficit)
- Retained earnings showed significant volatility and overall deterioration, starting at positive 3 billion in early 2019 and declining sharply to a negative range nearing -12 billion by late 2023. This suggests ongoing net losses or significant distributions exceeding earnings during this period.
- Treasury stock at cost
- Treasury stock increased in absolute terms (more negative values), indicating ongoing share repurchases. The value moved from -940 million in early 2019 to roughly -2 billion by the end of 2023, reflecting the company’s buyback activities.
- Accumulated other comprehensive loss
- This item remained negligible, showing a very small loss of 2 million in early periods and no further material movement, indicating limited effects from foreign currency translation, hedging, or other comprehensive income/loss adjustments.
- Total Charter shareholders’ equity
- Shareholders' equity declined substantially from about 35.7 billion in Q1 2019 to around 11 billion at the end of 2023, suggesting the combined effect of net losses, distributions, and share repurchases reducing equity over time.
- Noncontrolling interests
- Noncontrolling interests decreased from roughly 7.9 billion in early 2019 to about 3.6 billion by late 2023. The steady reduction suggests either buyouts of minority shareholders or lower valuations of those interests.
- Total shareholders’ equity
- The total shareholders’ equity, including both controlling and noncontrolling interests, experienced a marked decline from approximately 43.6 billion to about 14.7 billion, indicating overall erosion in the company’s net worth despite some stabilization after mid-2022.
- Total liabilities and shareholders’ equity
- The aggregate sum of liabilities and equity remained relatively stable, hovering around 146-147 billion throughout the period, showing consistent total assets size with shifts between liabilities and equity components.
