Balance Sheet: Assets
Quarterly Data

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.

Total assets have exhibited substantial growth over the analyzed period, increasing from approximately 7.56 billion USD in March 2019 to 13.48 billion USD by March 2024. This expansion is driven by simultaneous increases in both current and non-current asset categories, reflecting a significant scaling of the corporate balance sheet.
- Current Asset Analysis
- Current assets grew from 3.05 billion USD to 6.15 billion USD. A primary driver was the increase in cash and cash equivalents, which rose from 939.6 million USD in early 2019 to 2.61 billion USD by March 2024, despite periodic volatility. Inventories demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory, rising from 1.23 billion USD to 2.15 billion USD, suggesting a strategic accumulation of stock or an expansion in production volume.
- Capital Investment and Fixed Assets
- Property, plant, and equipment (PP&E), net, showed a marked acceleration in growth starting in late 2021. The value increased from 2.59 billion USD in March 2019 to 4.38 billion USD in March 2024. The sharp increase beginning in 2022 indicates a period of aggressive capital expenditure and infrastructure expansion.
- Intangible Assets and Goodwill
- Intangible assets, net, experienced a steady decline from 539.5 million USD to 289.4 million USD, consistent with systematic amortization. Goodwill increased significantly in 2019, peaked near 1.94 billion USD in late 2021, and subsequently stabilized at 1.58 billion USD for the remainder of the period.
- Other Non-Current Asset Trends
- Deferred tax assets showed a general upward trend, particularly accelerating after 2022 to reach 648.4 million USD. Other assets peaked in mid-2022 at 649.9 million USD before normalizing to 392.5 million USD by March 2024.
The overall asset structure has shifted toward a heavier weighting of fixed assets and liquidity. The simultaneous growth in cash reserves and PP&E suggests a strategy of maintaining high liquidity while aggressively investing in long-term productive capacity.
