- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The proportion of cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total assets demonstrated an overall increasing trend throughout the periods. Starting at 30.09% in March 2018, it reached a peak above 59% by June 2023. Notably, there was a significant rise beginning in early 2020, coinciding with a sharp increase observed during the second quarter of 2020, which suggests a strategic emphasis on liquidity during this period.
- Accounts Receivable, Net
- Accounts receivable as a percentage of total assets showed relative stability with minor fluctuations. Initial values near 2.2% in early 2018 decreased to a low around 1.5% by late 2020, followed by gradual incremental rises to approximately 2.1% by mid-2023. This indicates modest growth in credit sales or collections over time.
- Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
- This category exhibited variability, starting at 1.02% in early 2018 and generally trending downward until late 2020, where it reached around 0.41%. Afterward, there was a mild recovery and slight oscillation, maintaining between 0.67% and 0.91% in recent quarters. This pattern might reflect changes in operational expenses or payment cycles.
- Current Assets
- The share of current assets relative to total assets showed a clear upward trend. It rose from approximately 33.34% at the start of the dataset to above 62% by mid-2023. The most substantial increase occurred during 2020, indicating a shift toward a more liquid asset base possibly as a response to external economic uncertainties.
- Long-Term Investments
- Long-term investments maintained a small and slightly diminishing proportion, declining gently from 0.33% in early 2018 to 0.26% by the end of 2019. Data beyond this point is unavailable, suggesting either a cessation in reporting or immaterial impact.
- Deferred Income Taxes, Net
- This asset class remained marginal, consistently below 0.2% of total assets, without notable trends or volatility, reflecting a stable treatment of deferred tax assets over time.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- The proportion of property and equipment experienced modest fluctuations, generally ranging between 1.6% and 4.1%. A notable dip occurred during the first half of 2020, followed by a recovery, peaking around 4.14% in mid-2023. This could point to capital expenditure adjustments or asset disposals and acquisitions in that timeframe.
- Lease Right-of-Use Assets
- Reported shortly after 2018, these assets decreased steadily from approximately 3.16% in early 2019 to about 0.91% by mid-2023. The downward trend suggests a reduction in lease liabilities or a shift toward direct asset ownership or leasing terms.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill as a percentage of total assets dropped significantly over the period. Starting at a high of approximately 50.12% in early 2018, it declined to under 27% by mid-2023. This trend may indicate goodwill impairments, divestitures, or changes in acquisition accounting.
- Intangible Assets, Net
- Intangible assets displayed a consistent decline from over 10% in early 2018 to roughly 3.4% in 2023. The steady decrease points toward amortization or disposals, reducing the company's intangible asset base over time.
- Deferred Commission Costs, Net
- Deferred commission costs remained relatively stable, fluctuating slightly between 1.3% and 2.4%. There was a slight upward trend post-2020, rising from about 1.35% to around 1.87%, possibly reflecting increased sales activities or capitalized commission expenses.
- Deposits and Other Assets
- This item maintained a consistently low proportion, generally around 0.2% to 0.38%, with no apparent trend or significant variations.
- Income Tax Receivable
- The proportion of income tax receivable decreased significantly from about 0.42% in early 2018 to values near 0.02% in 2023, indicating reduced outstanding tax claims or settlements over time.
- Long-Term Assets
- Long-term assets as a percentage of total assets displayed a declining trend, dropping from approximately 66.66% in early 2018 to roughly 37.36% by mid-2023. This decrease correlates with the rise in current assets and appears connected to the reductions in goodwill and intangible assets, suggesting a shift in asset structure from long-term to short-term holdings.
