- Current Assets
- Current assets exhibited a consistent upward trend over the analyzed periods. Starting at approximately $2.26 billion at the end of 2020, the figure increased steadily each year, reaching nearly $5.93 billion by the end of 2024. This growth indicates enhanced liquidity and greater availability of short-term resources over time.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities showed some fluctuation during the period but generally increased. The value rose from roughly $604 million at the end of 2020 to nearly $1 billion by the end of 2024. While there was a decline observed in 2022, liabilities increased again in 2023 and 2024, suggesting a growing obligation base, albeit at a slower rate compared to assets.
- Current Ratio
- The current ratio improved consistently across the years, starting at 3.74 in 2020 and increasing steadily to 5.96 by the end of 2024. This indicates strengthening short-term financial stability, as assets increasingly cover liabilities by a larger margin. The rising current ratio also reflects a conservative liquidity position, giving the company greater buffer to meet its short-term obligations.
