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.

The balance sheet reflects a substantial expansion in total capitalization, which grew from $5.90 billion in March 2021 to $20.58 billion by September 2026. This growth is characterized by a consistent increase in both short-term obligations and total stockholders' equity, punctuated by a strategic shift in the long-term liability structure during the second quarter of 2025.
- Current Liability Trends
- Current liabilities exhibited a steady upward trajectory, increasing from $1.09 billion in March 2021 to $6.39 billion by September 2026. The primary driver of this growth was accrued expenses and other current liabilities, which rose from $1.00 billion to $5.95 billion over the period. Accounts payable also showed growth, increasing from $75 million to $333 million, though they remained a smaller component of the current liability profile compared to accrued expenses.
- Non-Current Liability and Debt Structure
- Non-current liabilities remained relatively stable, fluctuating between $253 million and $697 million from March 2021 through March 2025. A significant structural change occurred on June 30, 2025, with the introduction of convertible notes totaling $2.72 billion. This issuance caused non-current liabilities to jump to $3.33 billion, a level that remained consistent through September 2026. Operating lease liabilities, both current and non-current, grew modestly over the period, reflecting a gradual increase in leased assets.
- Stockholders' Equity and Capitalization
- Stockholders' equity increased from $4.56 billion to $10.72 billion. This growth was largely fueled by additional paid-in capital, which rose from $6.28 billion in March 2021 to $15.14 billion by September 2026. The accumulated deficit expanded from $1.72 billion in March 2021 to a peak of $5.40 billion in September 2022. However, a reversal trend began in 2024, with the deficit narrowing to $4.52 billion by September 2026, suggesting a movement toward improved earnings retention in the later periods of the analysis.
- Total Liability and Equity Composition
- The composition of the balance sheet shifted toward a higher reliance on both equity and long-term debt in the latter half of the analyzed period. While total liabilities grew from $1.35 billion to $9.85 billion, the simultaneous increase in stockholders' equity helped maintain a balanced capital structure. The sudden increase in total liabilities in mid-2025 was specifically tied to the convertible note issuance rather than a surge in operational current liabilities.
