The balance sheet exhibits a sustained expansion in total liabilities and equity, growing from 91,224 million US dollars in March 2021 to 112,189 million US dollars by June 2026. This growth is primarily driven by an increase in total liabilities, which rose from 77,171 million US dollars to 89,919 million US dollars over the same period, indicating a heavier reliance on external financing and obligations to support operations.

Liability Structure and Debt Trends
Current liabilities demonstrate a clear upward trajectory, increasing from 22,693 million US dollars in March 2021 to 35,106 million US dollars in June 2026. A significant contributor to this rise is short-term debt obligations, which experienced substantial volatility and an overall increase, starting at 4,674 million US dollars and ending at 10,602 million US dollars. Accounts payable and other current liabilities also trended upward, moving from 18,019 million US dollars to 24,504 million US dollars, suggesting an increase in short-term operational credit usage.
Noncurrent liabilities showed a more gradual increase, ending at 54,813 million US dollars in June 2026 compared to 54,478 million US dollars in March 2021. Long-term debt obligations, excluding current maturities, fluctuated throughout the period but ultimately grew from 38,991 million US dollars to 42,612 million US dollars, reflecting a strategic increase in long-term borrowing.
Equity and Shareholder Value
Total equity experienced steady growth, rising from 14,053 million US dollars in March 2021 to 22,270 million US dollars in June 2026. This growth was largely underpinned by a consistent increase in retained earnings, which climbed from 63,740 million US dollars to 74,116 million US dollars, signaling strong cumulative profitability.
A simultaneous trend of aggressive share repurchases is evident, as repurchased common stock in excess of par value increased from negative 38,370 million US dollars to negative 42,145 million US dollars. This indicates a consistent corporate strategy to return capital to shareholders, which partially offsets the growth in total equity.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss remained a significant contra-equity account, fluctuating between negative 14,342 million US dollars and negative 17,612 million US dollars, reflecting the impact of unrealized gains or losses from foreign currency translations or derivative instruments.
Financial Leverage and Risk Observations
The ratio of total liabilities to total equity remains high, indicating a highly leveraged capital structure. While total equity has grown, the absolute increase in total liabilities has been more pronounced, particularly within the current liability category.
The doubling of short-term debt obligations from 2021 to 2026 suggests a shift toward more immediate financing needs or a strategy of utilizing shorter-term instruments, which may increase the company's sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations and refinancing requirements.
