- Liquidity and Cash Position
- Cash and cash equivalents exhibit significant volatility over the reported periods, with values ranging from a low of 6,638 million USD at the end of 2018 to a peak of 80,452 million USD at the end of 2023. Notably, cash levels surged dramatically at the end of 2023 before sharply declining again in subsequent quarters. Short-term investments display a generally declining trend after peaking around 125,916 million USD in early 2020, gradually decreasing to approximately 50,790 million USD by the first quarter of 2025. Combined cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments reflect a somewhat stable but slightly decreasing pattern overall, impacted primarily by the fluctuations in cash and short-term investments.
- Current Assets and Receivables
- Current assets show minor fluctuations but remain relatively stable, with values between roughly 147,000 million and 207,000 million USD throughout the timeline. Accounts receivable demonstrates a pattern of fluctuation without a clear upward or downward trend but exhibits strong seasonal and quarterly variability, peaking above 48,000 million USD on several occasions, reflecting possibly increased sales or extended credit terms at specific points.
- Inventory Levels
- Inventory values remain relatively low and volatile by comparison to other assets, generally fluctuating between approximately 900 million and 4,300 million USD. A noticeable declining trend is seen after mid-2020, reaching its lowest point near the end of the data series, suggesting possible inventory management improvements or shifts in demand.
- Property, Plant, and Equipment
- Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, show a steady and consistent growth trend from roughly 31,430 million USD in late 2018 to 183,939 million USD by early 2025. This reflects ongoing investments in tangible assets and infrastructure expansion over the period.
- Lease and Investment Assets
- Operating lease right-of-use assets steadily increase throughout the timeline, moving from approximately 6,734 million USD to 24,475 million USD. Equity and other investments grow moderately but steadily, approximately doubling over the period from around 2,034 million USD to 16,035 million USD, indicating a strategic expansion in investment holdings.
- Goodwill and Intangible Assets
- Goodwill remains relatively stable until the end of 2021, after which there is a substantial increase to almost 119,329 million USD, suggesting significant acquisitions or revaluations. Intangible assets display a decreasing trend from around 7,579 million USD to approximately 23,968 million USD, except for a pronounced spike at the end of 2021, possibly related to asset reclassifications or large acquisitions.
- Long-Term Assets and Total Assets
- Long-term assets steadily increase over the period, rising from about 93,424 million USD to more than 405,980 million USD, indicating substantial capital investments and growth in non-current asset holdings. Total assets reflect a similar upward trajectory, increasing from approximately 257,619 million USD to 562,624 million USD, highlighting overall expansion and strengthening of the asset base.
