Paramount Global, common-size consolidated balance sheet: assets
Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2019-12-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2018-12-31).
- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- There was a notable increase in cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total assets from 1.47% in 2018 to a peak of 10.69% in 2021, followed by a decrease to 4.94% in 2022. This pattern indicates a period of liquidity accumulation followed by a partial reduction.
- Receivables, net
- Receivables as a percentage of total assets exhibited a declining trend from 18.49% in 2018 to 11.91% in 2021, with a slight increase to 12.69% in 2022. This suggests improvements in collection efficiency or changes in credit policies, partially reversed in the latest period.
- Programming and Other Inventory (Current)
- This category declined steadily from 9.09% in 2018 to 2.3% in 2022, indicating either a reduction in inventory holdings or reclassification of assets over time.
- Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
- Prepaid expenses and other current assets hovered moderately, increasing from 1.83% in 2018 to a peak of 2.64% in 2020, then slightly decreasing and stabilizing near 2.24% by 2022.
- Current Assets of Discontinued Operations
- These assets appeared starting in 2020 at 1.2% and increased slightly to 1.35% by 2022, reflecting continuing residual current assets from discontinued operations.
- Current Assets (Total)
- The share of current assets showed a decline from 30.89% in 2018 to 24.04% in 2019, then marginal increases through 2021 up to 28.45%, followed by a drop to 23.52% in 2022. Overall, current assets represent a smaller portion of total assets in the most recent period compared to earlier years.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- A decline was observed from 5.53% in 2018 to 2.96% in 2021, with a slight rebound to 3.02% in 2022. This trend suggests gradual asset disposals or depreciation exceeding additions, with minor recovery most recently.
- Programming and Other Inventory (Noncurrent)
- In contrast to the current inventory, noncurrent programming and other inventory assets increased steadily from 17.76% in 2018 to 27.88% in 2022, indicating a strategic shift toward holding more long-term content assets.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill increased sharply from 22.51% in 2018 to 34.29% in 2019, then declined gradually to 28.26% by 2022. This pattern suggests significant acquisitions around 2019 followed by amortization, impairment, or revaluation adjustments subsequently.
- Intangible Assets, Net
- A consistent decrease is evident from 12.07% in 2018 to 4.61% in 2022. This decline may reflect amortization or write-downs of intangible assets over the analyzed period.
- Operating Lease Assets
- Starting at 3.92% in 2019, operating lease assets showed a downward trend to 2.38% in 2022, signalling reduced leased asset commitments or expirations of lease terms.
- Deferred Income Tax Assets, Net
- These assets rose from a minimal 0.13% in 2018 to around 2.13% by 2022, indicating increased recognition of deferred tax benefits over the years.
- Other Assets
- Other assets declined from 10.96% in 2018 to about 6.83% in 2022, displaying a steady reduction which might entail asset disposals or category reclassifications.
- Assets Held for Sale
- Assets held for sale remained minimal and decreasing, from 0.15% in 2018 to almost negligible values by 2021, with no data for 2022, suggesting divestitures or completed sales.
- Assets of Discontinued Operations
- Emerging in 2020 at 1.54% and slightly decreasing to 1.37% by 2022, these assets denote ongoing residual balances from discontinued segments.
- Noncurrent Assets (Total)
- Noncurrent assets generally represented a larger portion of total assets, rising from 69.11% in 2018 to 76.48% in 2022, after a dip in intermediate years. This proportion indicates an emphasis on long-term asset holdings.
- Total Assets
- Always accounted for 100% by definition, serving as the base for all percentage-based observations.
