- Trade accounts payable
- This liability item experienced fluctuations over the observed periods, rising from 4.15% at the end of 2018 to a peak of 8.41% in early 2022. After this peak, there was a decline back to levels near 4.48% by mid-2025, indicating a cycle of increased then reduced short-term supplier obligations relative to total liabilities and equity.
- Payroll and other benefits related liabilities
- These liabilities showed volatility, starting at 2.4% in late 2018, peaking intermittently near 3.88% around mid-2021, and generally settling between 2.25% and 3.37% in later periods. There is no clear sustained upward or downward trend, suggesting payroll obligations relative to total financing remained fairly stable with periodic spikes.
- Unearned revenues (current)
- There was a gradual decline in unearned revenues as a percentage of total liabilities and equity, dropping from 1.41% in 2018 down to around 0.38% by mid-2022, and remaining low through 2025. This decline implies a decreasing extent of revenues received but not yet earned on the balance sheet.
- Short-term debt
- The percentage of short-term debt fluctuated considerably, initially rising to nearly 8.79% in mid-2019 but then experiencing sharp decreases and subsequent rises. A notable decline occurred in late 2020, dropping close to 1.33%, followed by volatility in the 1.7% to 3% range from 2023 onward. This indicates variable reliance on short-term borrowings.
- Held for sale liabilities (current)
- These liabilities emerged only near the end of the period analyzed, representing a small fraction around 0.6% to 1.44%. Their appearance reflects new items earmarked for disposal.
- Other current liabilities
- Other current liabilities declined significantly early on, from roughly 19.95% in late 2018 to around 7-8% in subsequent years. This indicates a decrease in miscellaneous current obligations relative to total liabilities and equity.
- Current liabilities (total)
- Total current liabilities decreased notably from about 30.82% at the end of 2018 to a low near 16.26% by early 2023, then fluctuated mildly around 17% to 19% through mid-2025. This trend suggests an overall reduction in short-term obligations relative to total financing, stabilizing in recent periods.
- Unearned revenues (long-term)
- Long-term unearned revenues steadily declined from 4.15% in late 2018 to below 0.15% by 2025, signifying a marked reduction in deferred income expected to be recognized beyond one year.
- Long-term debt
- Long-term debt represented a substantial portion of total liabilities and equity, starting at around 44.93% in late 2018, increasing to nearly 47.71% mid-2020, and then trending downward to about 23.94% by mid-2025. This decline indicates a progressive reduction in long-term borrowing relative to total financing.
- Held for sale liabilities (long-term)
- Similar to the current held for sale liabilities, these appeared later in the timeline with small percentages (~0.07% to 0.27%), reflecting long-term liabilities associated with assets to be sold.
- Other liabilities (non-current)
- Other non-current liabilities fluctuated moderately, decreasing from about 14.82% in late 2019 to below 10% by mid-2025. This trend points to a moderate reduction in additional liabilities beyond current and long-term debt categories.
- Noncurrent liabilities (total)
- Noncurrent liabilities decreased significantly from nearly 58.61% at the end of 2018 to around 32.69% by early 2025, consistent with the reduction in long-term debt and other long-term obligations.
- Total liabilities
- Total liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities and equity declined steadily over the period, from approximately 89.44% in late 2018 to 49.92% by mid-2025. This reduction suggests a shift toward a stronger equity base or deleveraging of the company over time.
- Common stock and paid-in capital
- Data on common stock and paid-in capital is sporadic and low as a percentage of total liabilities and equity, remaining below 2% where reported. This indicates a relatively minor contribution of paid-in capital to total financing.
- Retained earnings
- Retained earnings exhibited a steady and strong upward trend, rising from 9.97% of total liabilities and equity in late 2018 to 49.36% by mid-2025. This notable increase reflects consistent profitability and accumulation of earnings reinvested in the company.
- Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)
- This item showed some variability but remained a small portion relative to total financing, fluctuating between roughly 0.14% and 1.06%. The lack of a strong trend indicates limited impact on overall equity changes.
- Stockholders’ equity (total)
- Stockholders' equity increased significantly from 10.56% at the end of 2018 to over 50.08% by mid-2025. This growth in equity proportion corresponds inversely with the decline in total liabilities, suggesting enhanced financial strength and reduced leverage.
- Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity
- Throughout the entire period, this total was consistently 100%, confirming the proportional relationships of liabilities and equity components within the capital structure remained intact.
