The financial profile exhibits a significant divergence between reported net income and net cash provided by operating activities. While net income demonstrates a strong upward trajectory, growing from 111.8 million USD in 2021 to 2.23 billion USD in 2026, the operational cash flow is characterized by extreme volatility, alternating between positive and negative territory.

Operating Cash Flow and Working Capital Dynamics: Operational cash flows are heavily impacted by substantial swings in working capital. A notable pattern of aggressive inventory accumulation and receivables growth is observed, particularly in 2024 and 2026. In 2026, the cash drain from inventories reached 8.88 billion USD and accounts receivable reached 3.92 billion USD, which offset the record net income and resulted in a net operating cash outflow of 6.81 billion USD.; Non-cash adjustments show a marked increase in stock-based compensation, rising from 28.5 million USD in 2021 to 412.1 million USD in 2026. Additionally, inventory valuation write-downs became a significant factor starting in 2024, peaking at 232.1 million USD in 2025.
Investing Activities and Capital Expenditure: Investing activities show a consistent net outflow, primarily driven by the purchase of property, plant, and equipment. Capital expenditures have steadily increased from 58.0 million USD in 2021 to 161.9 million USD in 2026, indicating a continuous investment in physical infrastructure to support growth.
Financing Activities and Capital Structure: The company has relied heavily on external financing to fund its operational expansions and inventory builds. Financing activities shifted from a net outflow of 44.4 million USD in 2021 to massive inflows, peaking at 9.48 billion USD in 2026. This was achieved through a combination of convertible notes, public offerings, and a significant issuance of Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock totaling 4.23 billion USD in 2026.; The use of convertible notes (2028, 2029, and 2030 series) indicates a strategic preference for hybrid debt instruments to maintain liquidity during periods of negative operating cash flow.
Liquidity and Cash Position: Despite the volatility in operating cash flows, the overall liquidity position has strengthened dramatically due to aggressive financing. The cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance at the end of the year grew from 233.4 million USD in 2021 to 7.63 billion USD by June 30, 2026.
