1 US$ in millions
The analysis of the annual financial data reveals notable fluctuations and trends in liquidity measures over the period under review.
- Current Assets
- Current assets exhibit variability across the years, starting at 6,796 million US dollars in 2005 and experiencing a decline in subsequent years to a low of 5,193 million in 2008. From this point, there is a general upward trend reaching a peak of 16,676 million in 2021, followed by a decrease to 13,734 million in 2022. This suggests growth in liquid and near-liquid resources over the long term, despite short-term fluctuations.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities demonstrate a decline from 5,379 million in 2005 to 3,560 million in 2015, indicating a reduction in short-term obligations. However, from 2015 onwards, liabilities increase sharply, peaking at 11,191 million in 2022. This upward movement in recent years signals rising short-term financial commitments that should be carefully managed.
- Current Ratio
- The current ratio, an indicator of short-term liquidity, starts at 1.26 in 2005 and shows marked improvement in 2006 at 1.85. The ratio then fluctuates between approximately 1.08 and 1.66 over the years, exhibiting some volatility but generally reflecting a healthy liquidity position above 1.0, which means current assets exceed current liabilities. A notable decrease occurs in 2022, with the ratio dropping to 1.23 from higher levels in preceding years, corresponding to the increase in current liabilities relative to assets. This decline highlights a potential reduction in liquidity cushion.
Overall, the data indicate an organization that has experienced growth in both current assets and liabilities over time, with liquidity generally maintained above critical thresholds. However, the recent increase in current liabilities and the associated decrease in the current ratio warrant attention for managing short-term financial stability.
