Balance Sheet: Assets
Quarterly Data
The balance sheet provides creditors, investors, and analysts with information on company resources (assets) and its sources of capital (its equity and liabilities). It normally also provides information about the future earnings capacity of a company assets as well as an indication of cash flows that may come from receivables and inventories.
Assets are resources controlled by the company as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity.

Total assets exhibit a significant upward trajectory, increasing from US$ 731.5 million in March 2018 to US$ 4.26 billion by December 2022. This growth is primarily characterized by a substantial expansion in current assets and a consistent increase in long-term capital investments, reflecting a period of rapid organizational scaling.
- Liquidity and Working Capital Trends
- Current assets grew from US$ 571.2 million in March 2018 to US$ 2.89 billion by December 2022. A primary driver of this increase is the growth in trade receivables, which rose from US$ 127.4 million to US$ 905.1 million, and inventories, which climbed from US$ 98.3 million to US$ 729.2 million. This suggests a significant increase in sales volume and production capacity, though it also indicates a higher concentration of capital tied up in operating cycles.
- Cash and cash equivalents showed volatility, peaking at US$ 1.04 billion in September 2020 and again at US$ 1.00 billion in March 2022. This pattern reflects periods of aggressive liquidity accumulation followed by deployment into operations or investments.
- Capital Investment and Fixed Assets
- Property, plant, and equipment (PP&E), net, demonstrated a consistent and steady increase throughout the period, growing from US$ 61.1 million in March 2018 to US$ 543.9 million by December 2022. This suggests a sustained commitment to expanding physical infrastructure and manufacturing capabilities.
- Operating lease right-of-use assets appeared in early 2019 and grew steadily to US$ 62.7 million by the end of 2022, indicating an increase in leased facilities or equipment to support operational growth.
- Intangible Assets and Valuation Adjustments
- Intangible assets and goodwill experienced significant fluctuations. Intangible assets peaked in mid-2019 at US$ 177.6 million before trending downward. Goodwill showed a similar pattern, peaking at US$ 140.4 million in December 2020.
- A notable contraction occurred in the final quarter of 2022, where goodwill dropped sharply from US$ 108.8 million in September to US$ 31.1 million in December, and intangible assets fell from US$ 46.2 million to US$ 19.9 million. This sharp decline suggests a substantial impairment charge or a strategic revaluation of acquired assets at the end of the period.
- Long-term Financial Assets
- Long-term marketable securities showed a marked increase starting in 2021, rising from US$ 294.8 million in March 2021 to a peak of US$ 709.5 million in June 2022, before settling at US$ 645.4 million in December 2022. This indicates a strategic shift toward diversifying the asset base into long-term interest-bearing or equity instruments.
