- Held for Sale Liabilities
- These liabilities appear intermittently with small percentages recorded in 2022 and 2023, suggesting occasional recognition of assets/liabilities held for sale within those years.
- Customer Incentives and Other Customer-Related Liabilities
- A gradual decline was noted from 4.84% in 2020 to 3.57% in 2023, with a rebound to 4.5% in 2024 and a slight decrease again in 2025.

- Current Liabilities (Overall)
- Current liabilities as a whole decreased substantially from 24.36% in 2020 to 18.24% in 2025, indicating a shift in the liability structure towards longer-term obligations or equity.
- Unearned Revenues (Noncurrent)
- A similar declining pattern to current unearned revenues was observed, through a decrease from 2.14% in 2020 to 0.14% in 2025.
- Long-term Debt
- There was a clear downward trend in long-term debt from 42.78% in 2020 to 24.06% in 2024, with a moderate rise to 29.54% in 2025, implying a reduction in reliance on long-term borrowing over the period.

- Noncurrent liabilities decreased significantly from 58.56% in 2020 to 33.32% in 2024, then increased again to 39.47% by 2025, indicating shifts in the company’s long-term financial commitments.
- Total Liabilities
- Total liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities and stockholders’ equity showed a notable decrease from 82.93% in 2020 to a low of 52.36% in 2024, before rising to 57.71% in 2025. This trend suggests an overall reduction in leverage, with a slight reversal in the last reported year.
- Stockholders’ Equity Components
- Equity exhibited strong growth, climbing from 17.07% in 2020 to 47.64% in 2024, before a decline to 42.29% in 2025. Retained earnings were the primary contributor to this increase, rising from 14.85% in 2020 to a peak of 46.57% in 2024, followed by a slight decrease. Accumulated other comprehensive income fluctuated at low levels, experiencing small positive shifts in recent years.
- Overall Capital Structure
- The data reflects a strategic reduction in liabilities relative to equity over most of the observed period, reaching a peak equity ratio by 2024. The slight uptick in liabilities and decrease in equity in 2025 may indicate a change in financing or operational conditions.
