Balance Sheet: Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
Quarterly Data
The balance sheet provides creditors, investors, and analysts with information on company resources (assets) and its sources of capital (its equity and liabilities). 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.
Liabilities represents obligations of a company arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow of economic benefits from the entity.

The balance sheet of ON Semiconductor Corp. exhibits a significant expansion in total capital structure, with total liabilities and stockholders' equity increasing from 7.56 billion USD in March 2019 to 13.48 billion USD by March 2024. This growth is primarily driven by a substantial increase in equity rather than a corresponding rise in long-term debt, suggesting a strengthening of the company's solvency position over the five-year period.
- Liability Trends and Debt Management
- Total liabilities have remained relatively stable compared to equity growth, fluctuating between a low of 4.79 billion USD in July 2021 and a peak of 6.27 billion USD in July 2020. Long-term debt, excluding the current portion, showed a peak of 4.04 billion USD in early 2020 before stabilizing and trending downward to approximately 2.54 billion USD by March 2024. The current portion of long-term debt has exhibited high volatility, with notable spikes in September 2019 and March 2023, indicating periodic refinancing cycles or scheduled debt maturities.
- Current Liability Dynamics
- Current liabilities experienced a general upward trend, rising from 1.32 billion USD in March 2019 to 2.14 billion USD in March 2024. Accounts payable peaked at 976.2 million USD in December 2022 before declining to 665.8 million USD. Similarly, accrued expenses and other current liabilities reached a peak of 1.05 billion USD in December 2022, reflecting potential cyclical swings in operational obligations or year-end accrual adjustments.
- Equity Growth and Retention
- Total stockholders' equity has grown aggressively, increasing from 3.22 billion USD in March 2019 to 8.14 billion USD in March 2024. This expansion is predominantly attributed to the growth of accumulated earnings, which rose from 1.09 billion USD to 7.00 billion USD over the period, signaling strong retained profitability. Additional paid-in capital also saw a steady increase, reflecting further capital infusions or stock-based compensation adjustments.
- Treasury Stock and Capital Return
- A consistent increase in treasury stock at cost is observed, moving from -1.58 billion USD in March 2019 to -4.08 billion USD in March 2024. This trend indicates a sustained and aggressive share repurchase program, through which the company has returned significant value to shareholders, effectively offsetting some of the growth in total stockholders' equity.
- Overall Financial Structure
- The ratio of total liabilities to total stockholders' equity has declined markedly. In March 2019, liabilities were approximately 1.35 times the value of equity; by March 2024, this ratio decreased to approximately 0.66. This shift indicates a transition toward a more equity-heavy capital structure, reducing financial leverage and enhancing the company's long-term financial stability.
