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 financial position over the observed period is characterized by a significant expansion of the total liability base and a simultaneous reduction in total shareowners' equity, indicating a strategic shift toward a more leveraged capital structure.
- Liability Structure and Debt Trends
- Total liabilities grew from 45,302 million USD in March 2021 to 59,321 million USD by March 2026. This increase was primarily driven by long-term debt, excluding current maturities, which rose from 16,124 million USD to 29,010 million USD. A notable acceleration in borrowing occurred between March 2023 and September 2025, where long-term debt peaked at over 30,000 million USD.
- Current liabilities exhibited a general upward trajectory, moving from 17,950 million USD in March 2021 to 22,085 million USD in March 2026. This growth was supported by increases in accounts payable and volatile fluctuations in commercial paper and short-term borrowings, which reached a peak of 6,873 million USD in September 2025 before moderating.
- Equity and Capital Management
- Total shareowners' equity declined from 18,252 million USD in March 2021 to 14,667 million USD in March 2026. This contraction occurred despite a consistent increase in retained earnings, which grew from 40,682 million USD to 51,029 million USD over the same period.
- The primary driver of the equity reduction was an aggressive share repurchase program. Common stock held in treasury, at cost, increased from -27,975 million USD to -43,904 million USD, effectively offsetting the growth in retained earnings and reducing the total equity cushion.
- Other Liability Observations
- Asbestos-related liabilities showed a general long-term decline, falling from 1,873 million USD in March 2021 to a low of 1,243 million USD in June 2025, although data for the final quarter is absent. Deferred income taxes also trended downward, ending at 1,581 million USD in March 2026, compared to 2,309 million USD at the start of the period.
- Accrued liabilities remained relatively stable but showed a gradual increase, ending the period at 7,112 million USD, having peaked at 9,162 million USD in December 2022.
The overall trajectory demonstrates a deliberate increase in financial leverage, where the company utilized increased debt and the issuance of liabilities to fund significant treasury stock acquisitions, thereby reducing the total equity base while maintaining growth in retained earnings.
