After a significant decline to 470,702 thousand USD in March 2023, values moderately recovered, reaching 854,208 thousand USD by June 2025. This indicates fluctuations with a substantial peak followed by a correction and partial recovery.
- Accrued expenses and other current liabilities
- This category steadily increased overall, starting at 990,035 thousand USD in September 2019, peaking at around 2,068,370 thousand USD in December 2022. After a slight dip to approximately 1,970,147 thousand USD in March 2023, the amounts fluctuated but generally stayed elevated, ending at 2,394,366 thousand USD in June 2025.
- Deferred profit
- Deferred profit showed considerable growth from 406,681 thousand USD in September 2019 to a peak of 1,951,210 thousand USD in September 2022. Subsequent quarters exhibited volatility, with a trough near 1,411,781 thousand USD in September 2023, followed by growth to 2,565,540 thousand USD by June 2025. The data suggests increased deferred profit over time with intermittent reversals.
- Current portion of long-term debt and finance lease obligations
- There is notable volatility in the current portion of long-term debt, with values sharply dropping from over 600,000 thousand USD in late 2019 to around 7,000 thousand USD during much of 2021 and 2022. A substantial increase occurred from September 2023 onward, rising to around 754,311 thousand USD by June 2025, indicating shifting debt repayment structures or refinancing activities.
- Current liabilities
- Current liabilities generally increased from 2,457,682 thousand USD in September 2019, reaching a peak near 5,053,382 thousand USD in September 2022, then slightly decreasing to around 4,184,918 thousand USD in March 2023 before rising again to 6,568,425 thousand USD by June 2025. This overall upward trajectory reflects growing short-term obligations over the period.
- Long-term debt and finance lease obligations, less current portion
- Long-term debt excluding the current portion was stable near 3,788,000 thousand USD in late 2019 but spiked to about 5,043,931 thousand USD in March 2020, maintaining near 5,000,000 thousand USD until early 2023. From March 2023 onward, a steady decline occurred, dropping to approximately 3,730,194 thousand USD by June 2025, possibly reflecting principal repayments or refinancing impacts.
- Income taxes payable
- Income taxes payable showed moderate fluctuations around 800,000 to 900,000 thousand USD during most periods, peaking near 948,037 thousand USD in June 2021.

- Other long-term liabilities
- Other long-term liabilities gradually increased from 261,890 thousand USD in September 2019 to 581,610 thousand USD in June 2025, with steady incremental growth and minor fluctuations, suggesting growing non-debt-related long-term obligations.

- Additional paid-in capital
- This capital consistently grew from approximately 6,456,492 thousand USD in September 2019 to 8,697,290 thousand USD by June 2025, highlighting ongoing equity contributions or retained earnings impacts boosting shareholder equity.

- Treasury stock, represented as a negative balance, increased in absolute terms from -11,680,689 thousand USD in September 2019 to -27,763,430 thousand USD in June 2025. This persistent rise suggests ongoing stock repurchases or holdings of treasury shares, reducing net equity.
