Total financing lease liabilities exhibited a period of rapid expansion between 2019 and 2022, followed by a substantial contraction in 2023. The carrying amount increased from US$ 39 million in 2019 to a peak of US$ 1,073 million in 2022, representing a significant scaling of lease-based obligations over a four-year window.

Growth Phase and Peak Valuation
A steep upward trajectory is observed from 2019 through 2022. The most aggressive increase occurred between 2020 and 2021, where liabilities rose from US$ 134 million to US$ 764 million. This expansion culminated in December 2022, with total carrying amounts reaching their maximum at US$ 1,073 million.
Composition of Lease Obligations
The debt load is heavily concentrated in non-current financing lease liabilities. Non-current obligations rose from US$ 39 million in 2019 to US$ 912 million in 2022. In contrast, current lease liabilities remained relatively low, peaking at US$ 165 million in 2021 and US$ 161 million in 2022, before no balance was recorded for the 2023 period.
2023 Reduction Trend
A significant reversal in the liability trend occurred in 2023. Total financing lease liabilities decreased to US$ 575 million, reflecting a reduction of approximately 46% from the 2022 peak. This decline is driven entirely by the reduction in non-current liabilities, which fell from US$ 912 million to US$ 575 million.
