Balance Sheet: Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
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.

- Accounts Payable
- There was a consistent increase in accounts payable from 2019 through 2022, peaking at 443,338 thousand USD. This was followed by a decline in 2023 and 2024, reaching 359,487 thousand USD, indicating improved payment management or reduced short-term obligations.
- Deferred Revenue
- Deferred system revenue showed fluctuations with an initial decrease in 2021, then a sharp increase through 2024, reaching its highest point at 985,856 thousand USD. Deferred service revenue displayed a steady upward trend from 2019 through 2024, suggesting growing future service commitments or prepaid income.
- Debt Obligations
- Short-term debt was minimal and irregular, only appearing in 2021. The current portion of long-term debt was absent for most years, then surged to 749,936 thousand USD in 2024. Long-term debt excluding the current portion increased substantially in 2022, peaking that year before slightly declining over the next two years yet remaining significantly higher than previous years, which could reflect refinancing or increased borrowing for strategic investments.
- Customer Deposits
- Customer deposits appeared only from 2022 onwards, showing a sharp rise in current liabilities in 2023, then a reduction in 2024. Non-current customer deposits decreased steadily from 2022 to 2024.
- Compensation and Benefits
- This expense showed a continual increase from 2019 to 2024, evidencing growth in payroll or staff-related expenses consistent with company expansion or inflationary pressures.
- Executive Deferred Savings Plan
- The balance fluctuated but generally trended upward from 2019 to 2024, indicating increases in deferred compensation related to executives.
- Income Taxes Payable
- Current income taxes payable exhibited significant volatility, peaking in 2023 at 383,012 thousand USD and then sharply decreasing in 2024. Non-current income taxes payable decreased consistently from 2019 to 2024, reflecting possible changes in tax liabilities or timing of payments.
- Interest Payable
- Interest payable rose consistently over the period, markedly increasing after 2021, likely due to higher debt levels and associated interest expenses.

- Both current and non-current operating lease liabilities increased steadily from 2020 onward, indicating either new lease commitments or reclassification of liabilities in accordance with accounting standards.

This indicates a large-scale expansion in financial obligations, possibly related to growth, acquisitions, or capital investments.
- Stockholders’ Equity

Capital in excess of par value generally rose, except for a pronounced drop in 2022, followed by recovery.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss was negative throughout and increased in magnitude in recent years.
