- Current ratio
- The current ratio displays an initial significant increase from 1.03 in April 2019 to a peak of 2.94 in July 2019, indicating a strong improvement in short-term liquidity during this period. Following this peak, the ratio exhibits a general declining trend, fluctuating slightly but predominantly decreasing from 2.53 to 1.73 between October 2019 and January 2023. From January 2023 onwards, the ratio stabilizes somewhat within a narrower range, oscillating between 1.76 and 1.90 through April 2025, suggesting a more consistent but lower level of short-term liquidity compared to the earlier peak period.
- Quick ratio
- The quick ratio follows a trend closely mirroring the current ratio, beginning with a marked increase from 0.87 in April 2019 to 2.76 in July 2019. After this surge, it experiences a downward trend, declining to around 1.58 by January 2023. Similar to the current ratio, it maintains relative stability between 1.58 and 1.72 in the periods following January 2023 through to April 2025. The pattern suggests consistent liquidity from more liquid assets excluding inventories, showing a reduction from the initial peak yet maintaining a reasonable buffer above 1, which indicates sufficient short-term financial health.
- Cash ratio
- The cash ratio also rises substantially from 0.58 in April 2019 to 2.42 in July 2019, reflecting a strong cash position early in the timeline. Subsequently, it declines steadily to a lower range around 1.25 to 1.48 from January 2023 to April 2025. This ratio remains the lowest among the three liquidity measures but stays above 1 in most periods after mid-2020, signifying that the company retains a cash and cash-equivalent balance sufficient to cover its current liabilities. The somewhat declining yet stable profile in recent periods indicates a cautious approach to liquidity management.
- Overall liquidity analysis
- Across all three ratios, there is a consistent pattern of a pronounced rise in liquidity measures between April and July 2019, followed by a gradual decline over subsequent quarters up to early 2023. After this decline, liquidity ratios stabilize and maintain moderately strong levels through to April 2025. This suggests initial aggressive liquidity management or accumulation of liquid assets, followed by a normalization phase where the company operates with balanced levels of current assets relative to liabilities. The maintenance of ratios generally above 1 in all three measures in recent periods indicates satisfactory short-term financial stability and a prudent liquidity management strategy.

The analysis of the quarterly financial data reveals notable trends in the liquidity position of the company over the examined periods.
- Current Assets
- Current assets show an overall increasing trend from April 2019 through April 2025. Starting from approximately 311 million US dollars, the figure rises significantly to exceed 6 billion US dollars by early 2025. Some quarters demonstrate particularly strong increases, such as between January 2020 and January 2021, where current assets nearly doubled, and a further substantial rise is observed around 2023 and early 2024.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities also increase steadily over the same timeframe but at a comparatively slower pace than current assets. Beginning at roughly 303 million US dollars in April 2019, they rise to about 3.3 billion US dollars by early 2025. The increase is fairly consistent, with expected periodic increments that keep pace with the company’s growing operations or obligations.
- Current Ratio
- The current ratio exhibits marked fluctuation during the initial periods, peaking at nearly 3.0 in mid-2019, which indicates strong short-term liquidity at that time. Following this peak, the ratio declines sharply to around 1.7-1.9 levels, demonstrating a normalization of liquidity ratios as both assets and liabilities expand. From 2020 onward, the ratio remains mostly stable between 1.7 and 1.9, suggesting a maintained balance between current assets and current liabilities without significant liquidity risk. Minor oscillations occur but the trend reflects stable working capital management.
In summary, the company has expanded its current assets substantially over the reviewed periods while managing to keep current liabilities increasing at a controlled pace. The relative stability of the current ratio after an early peak suggests an adjustment from an initially very strong liquidity position to a steady state that balances asset availability with short-term obligations appropriately.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The analysis of the quarterly financial data reveals significant trends in the company's liquidity and short-term financial position over multiple periods.
- Total Quick Assets
- The total quick assets demonstrate a clear upward trajectory throughout the periods presented. Starting at approximately $262 million in April 2019, the figure increased substantially, showing notable growth especially from January 2021 onwards. By April 2025, total quick assets had reached approximately $5.42 billion, reflecting a strong and consistent increase in highly liquid assets available to the company for meeting short-term obligations.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities also increased over the same period but at a rate somewhat proportional to quick assets. Beginning near $303 million in April 2019, current liabilities rose steadily to over $3.28 billion by April 2025. There are occasional periods where liabilities increased more sharply, notably between late 2021 and early 2023. Despite this rise, the growth in current liabilities remained below the rate of growth of quick assets, contributing to the overall liquidity stability.
- Quick Ratio
- The quick ratio started below 1.0 in April 2019, indicating limited coverage of current liabilities by quick assets initially. However, it increased sharply to values above 2.0 by mid-2019, showing improved liquidity, before gradually declining to moderate levels around 1.6-1.7 across recent periods. Although there has been some fluctuation, the ratio consistently remained above 1.5 from early 2021 onwards, reflecting a generally healthy liquidity position. The tendency towards stabilization near values between 1.6 and 1.7 suggests effective management of liquid assets relative to short-term liabilities.
Overall, the financial data indicate strengthened liquidity over time with substantial increases in quick assets outpacing current liabilities, resulting in a sustainable quick ratio that signals the company’s capacity to meet its short-term obligations without reliance on inventory or other less liquid assets.

1 Q1 2026 Calculation
Cash ratio = Total cash assets ÷ Current liabilities
= 4,614,153 ÷ 3,282,534 = 1.41
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The financial data reveals significant trends in cash assets, current liabilities, and the cash ratio over the periods presented.
- Total Cash Assets
- Total cash assets showed a substantial increase from April 2019 to January 2025. Beginning at approximately 175 million US dollars in April 2019, cash assets escalated markedly, reaching peaks above 4.6 billion US dollars by April 2025. This growth trajectory was steady with occasional surges, particularly notable between January 2020 and January 2021, and again post-January 2023, suggesting strong cash accumulation and liquidity management over time.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities also increased over the observed periods, rising from approximately 303 million US dollars in April 2019 to over 3.2 billion US dollars by April 2025. The increase appears relatively steady, with some fluctuations such as a minor decline between April 2023 and April 2025. This pattern indicates that while liabilities expanded, there might have been efforts to control or reduce short-term obligations in the later stages of the timeline.
- Cash Ratio
- The cash ratio, which measures the company's ability to cover current liabilities with cash or cash equivalents, started at 0.58 in April 2019, implying less than adequate immediate liquidity at that time. It rose sharply to above 2.4 by July 2019, demonstrating a strong improvement in short-term liquidity. Subsequently, the ratio stabilized around values between 1.2 and 1.5 from approximately mid-2020 onward, reflecting consistent liquidity management where cash assets were maintained at levels exceeding current liabilities, albeit with somewhat lower buffers compared to 2019’s mid-year peak.
Overall, the data suggests that the company significantly increased its cash holdings while also experiencing an increase in current liabilities, yet maintained a healthy liquidity position as evidenced by the cash ratio remaining consistently above 1 for the majority of the periods after mid-2019. This balance of increasing cash alongside elevated liabilities could reflect strategic financial management aimed at supporting growth while ensuring sufficient liquidity to manage short-term obligations.
