Balance Sheet: Assets
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.
Assets are resources controlled by the company as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity.

- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The cash and cash equivalents exhibit notable fluctuations over the periods analyzed. Initially, the balance declined between late 2018 and mid-2019, reaching a low around July 2019. Subsequently, a recovery follows through to late 2020. From early 2021 until mid-2023, there is a general decline with intermittent rises. The last few quarters up to April 2025 show an increasing trend, indicating improving liquidity.
- Short-term Investments
- Short-term investments increased from late 2018 through early 2019, then experienced a decline into early 2020. Subsequently, these investments have fluctuated with a downward trajectory in the most recent periods through early 2025, suggesting a possible liquidation of short-term assets or reallocation of funds.
- Accounts Receivable, Net
- The accounts receivable demonstrate an upward trend, with several peaks notably in mid-2020 and mid-2022. Early 2023 and mid-2024 also indicate considerable increases, followed by some decreases. The overall direction suggests growing sales or credit extensions, accompanied by variable collection effectiveness.
- Short-term Financing Receivables, Net
- Data for short-term financing receivables appear only starting in early 2023, illustrating a progressive increase up to early 2025. This growth indicates an expansion of financing activities within the short-term scope.
- Short-term Deferred Contract Costs
- Beginning in early 2021, short-term deferred contract costs steadily increased through to early 2025, reflecting ongoing contract-related expenses or capitalizations increasing over time.
- Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
- These assets exhibit growth from late 2018 to mid-2020, followed by fluctuations and a pronounced rise in mid-2023. The variability may relate to operational factors or changes in working capital policies.
- Current Assets
- Current assets show general growth, with pronounced increases during mid-2020 and several peaks through 2024. Despite some variability, the overall trend is upward, supporting enhanced short-term financial flexibility.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- Property and equipment remain relatively stable over time, with minor fluctuations around a consistent level. No significant capital expenditures or disposals are apparent.
- Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets
- From early 2020, this asset category decreases gradually until 2022, followed by a marked increase beginning in early 2023. This pattern may reflect changes in lease arrangements or accounting practices.
- Long-term Investments
- Long-term investment balances show volatility with a substantial upward trend starting in late 2021 through early 2025, indicating increased allocation to long-term financial assets.
- Long-term Financing Receivables, Net
- Only available starting early 2023, these receivables demonstrate a steady increase through early 2025, indicating growth in long-term financing provisions.
- Long-term Deferred Contract Costs
- This metric is generally stable with slight fluctuations, showing a modest increase after 2022, reflecting consistent contract-related asset recognition.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill increases significantly between 2018 and 2021, reaching a plateau with moderate rises through early 2023. A notable jump is observed in early 2024, stabilizing thereafter. This pattern suggests acquisition activities during these periods.
- Intangible Assets, Net
- Intangible assets rise steadily until early 2021, followed by a long-term decline through late 2023. A substantial increase occurs in early 2024, before a slight decrease towards mid-2025, consistent with amortization and acquisition cycles.
- Deferred Tax Assets
- Reported from early 2023 onward, deferred tax assets show a steady increase over the periods available, which may reflect growing temporary differences or recognition of tax benefits.
- Other Assets
- Other assets fluctuate over the entire period with multiple peaks and troughs and a pronounced decline in mid-2023, followed by a moderate recovery, indicating variable non-current asset components.
- Long-term Assets
- Long-term assets demonstrate a clear upward trend throughout the period, with particularly steep growth starting from late 2021, consistent with significant asset additions, acquisitions, or reclassifications.
- Total Assets
- Total assets increased steadily from 2018 through 2025, with occasional fluctuations but an overall growth trajectory, notably accelerated after 2021, signifying expansion in asset base and possible business growth.
