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.

- Current Liabilities Analysis
- Over the periods analyzed, current liabilities exhibited some volatility but showed a general upward trend, increasing from 27.6 billion US dollars in early 2020 to a peak of about 40.2 billion by the end of 2023, followed by fluctuations through 2025 with a slight decline in later quarters. Accounts payable and accrued expenses demonstrated a steady increase until early 2022, then fluctuated moderately without a clear upward or downward trajectory. Deferred revenue increased significantly from approximately 2.6 billion in March 2020 to over 4.2 billion by the first quarter of 2025, signaling growth in advance payments or unearned income. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities fluctuated without a consistent trend but experienced temporary spikes in certain quarters, notably mid-2023.
- Debt Composition Trends
- The current portion of debt showed notable fluctuations with a peak near 6.8 billion in the second quarter of 2025 after a low of around 694 million in late 2021. The noncurrent portion of debt remained relatively stable, generally hovering around 90-100 billion, though it showed a slight declining trend from mid-2021 through early 2025, followed by mild increases toward the latest quarters. The presence of collateralized obligations appeared sporadically but remained roughly constant at about 5.2 billion.
- Noncurrent Liabilities
- Noncurrent liabilities showed a gradual decline from 150.8 billion in March 2020 to about 138.1 billion by mid-2025, with some intermittent increases at various points. Other noncurrent liabilities remained mostly steady, fluctuating narrowly around the 20 billion mark.
- Total Liabilities Overview
- Total liabilities fluctuated within a moderate range of 173.9 billion to 183.9 billion throughout the reviewed period. There was a slight upward movement from 2020 until early 2021, after which liabilities generally trended downward before rising briefly around 2024 and stabilizing near 175 billion by mid-2025.
- Shareholders’ Equity and Related Items
- Total shareholders’ equity experienced a general rising trend from approximately 81.5 billion in March 2020 to a peak near 97 billion by mid-2025. Retained earnings particularly increased steadily until early 2022, then dipped sharply before recovering and surpassing previous highs. Additional paid-in capital decreased gradually over the period, while treasury stock holdings remained constant. Accumulated other comprehensive income displayed significant volatility, showing large swings between positive and negative positions, indicating variability in unrealized gains or losses.
- Capital Structure and Stock
- Common stock par value slightly declined over time, likely reflecting share repurchases or retirements. Redeemable noncontrolling interests generally decreased, signifying a possible reduction in minority shareholder claims. No preferred stock issuance was recorded during the timeline.
- Overall Observations
- The company maintained a relatively stable capital structure with controlled fluctuations in liabilities and equity levels. The modest increase in deferred revenue and steady retained earnings growth suggest sustained operational cash inflows and customer engagement. The variability in current liabilities and accumulated other comprehensive income indicates exposure to market conditions and operational adjustments. The declining trend in noncurrent liabilities hints at a gradual debt repayment strategy, while consistent equity growth reflects retained profitability and shareholder value enhancement.
