- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The proportion of cash and cash equivalents relative to total assets exhibits fluctuations over the observed periods. Beginning at 5.23% in March 2015, it experienced a general decline through 2017, reaching a low point near 1.09% in December 2018. A notable spike occurs in March 2020 at 5.19%, indicating a significant increase in liquidity, followed by a subsequent decline to 2.86% in June 2020.
- Trade Receivables, Net of Allowances
- This asset category remained relatively stable but low in proportion, generally ranging between roughly 0.7% and 2.25%. An increasing trend is evident from early 2018, rising from 0.86% in March 2018 to a peak at 2.23% in March 2020, suggesting an expansion in amounts owed to the company by customers.
- Sold Receivables
- Data for sold receivables is incomplete, but available figures from late 2015 to mid-2018 show minor proportions ranging from 0.03% to 0.65%, reflecting occasional use of receivables sales as a financing mechanism. Their reduced presence after mid-2018 may suggest a strategic shift away from this practice.
- Inventories
- Inventory holdings as a percentage of total assets range moderately between about 2.1% and 3.4%. The trend shows relative stability with minor fluctuations, peaking above 3% in early 2019 and mid-2017, and slightly lower levels in late 2019 and 2020, indicating consistent inventory management with no dramatic changes.
- Prepaid Expenses
- Reported only from early 2019 onward, prepaid expenses appear consistently stable, between 0.37% and 0.48% of total assets, representing a small but steady component of current assets.
- Other Current Assets
- Other current assets exhibit variability, generally falling within 0.5% to 1.45%. Peaks above 1% appear intermittently, particularly during 2017 and 2019, while a decline is observed toward mid-2020, possibly reflecting shifts in short-term assets composition.
- Assets Held for Sale
- Limited data from 2018 onward indicates a minor portion of assets classified as held for sale, with percentages around 0.03% to 1.33%, suggesting occasional divestiture activities or asset disposals during this period.
- Current Assets
- Current assets as a segment declined noticeably from around 12.3% in early 2015 to as low as 5.95% in mid-2017, indicating a reduction of short-term asset holdings. Subsequently, a recovery trend occurred, with current assets rising again to approximately 11.25% in March 2020 before a fall back to around 8.93% by mid-2020.
- Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
- This category remains relatively stable, generally oscillating between 5.2% and 6.9% of total assets. Slight upward movements are observed in late 2018 and through 2019, possibly indicating ongoing investments or revaluation increases in fixed assets.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill comprises a significant and substantial portion of total assets, initially exceeding 40% in early 2015. A gradual declining trend follows, descending to about 33.69% by March 2020, possibly reflecting impairments or asset write-downs related to acquisitions.
- Intangible Assets, Net
- Intangible assets maintain a large share of total assets, often near or above 46%. Values rose sharply between 2015 and 2016, peaking above 50%, then showed a declining trend into 2020. This could reflect amortization charges or asset disposals, maintaining a strong intangible asset base overall.
- Other Non-current Assets
- The percentage of other non-current assets showed a decreasing trend initially from 6% in early 2015 to just above 1% later that year, followed by relative stability and slight increases up to about 2.3% by mid-2020. This expansion suggests either asset reclassification or incremental additions in this category.
- Non-current Assets
- Non-current assets consistently form the majority of total assets, remaining above 87% at all times and frequently approaching or exceeding 90%. There is a mild fluctuation but no sharp trend, indicating a stable asset composition dominated by long-term holdings.
- Total Assets
- Total assets equal 100% by definition throughout all periods, serving as the base for all relative percentage calculations and demonstrating stable overall asset structure with predominant allocation to non-current assets.
