The financial leverage and debt ratios exhibit notable patterns over the observed periods. There is a general decline in leverage-related measures when considering operating lease liabilities, indicating a gradual reduction in reliance on debt financing adjusted for lease obligations.

Debt to equity ratios
The basic debt to equity ratio shows a decrease from 0.21 in March 2020 to 0.09 by September 2020, after which data becomes unavailable. When including operating lease liabilities, the ratio decreases consistently from 0.55 in March 2020 to around 0.11-0.13 in the periods from March 2024 onwards, reflecting a steady deleveraging trend or increased equity base relative to debt and leases.
Debt to capital ratios
Basic debt to capital ratio data is only available for the first three quarters of 2020, showing a decrease from 0.18 to 0.08. Including operating lease liabilities, the ratio steadily declines from 0.35 in March 2020 down to approximately 0.10-0.11 in the last observed years, which suggests improved capital structure strength and reduced leverage risk when factoring in lease commitments.
Debt to assets ratios
The basic debt to assets ratio decreases from 0.08 in early 2020 to 0.03 by September 2020, with further data missing. Including operating lease liabilities, the ratio declines from 0.21 to about 0.05-0.06 for the recent years, pointing to a prudent asset financing approach with a diminishing portion funded by debt and lease obligations.
Financial leverage
The financial leverage ratio fluctuates somewhat, starting at 2.62 in March 2020, decreasing to around 2.06 in mid-2022, then showing a slight upward trend towards 2.21 by June 2025. Despite some variability, the leverage remains modest, suggesting stable use of debt relative to equity, with some increase in leverage seen in the most recent periods but not exceeding early 2020 levels.

Overall, the trends reveal a consistent decrease in debt and lease-related leverage ratios over the extended timeframe, indicating a strengthening financial position with less dependence on debt-like obligations. The modest increase in financial leverage in recent quarters could reflect strategic funding choices or changing market conditions but remains within a moderate range. The company appears to manage its capital structure cautiously, increasingly favoring equity financing over time while maintaining steady financial leverage.

1 Q2 2025 Calculation
Debt to equity = Total debt ÷ Stockholders’ equity
= 0 ÷ 2,695,833 = 0.00

Total Debt
The total debt decreased significantly from 143,000 thousand US dollars at March 31, 2020, to 72,000 thousand US dollars by September 30, 2020. After this period, the data shows no recorded values, indicating either full repayment or absence of reported debt thereafter.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity exhibited a consistent upward trend throughout the entire period from March 31, 2020, to June 30, 2025. Starting at approximately 674 million US dollars in March 2020, equity increased steadily each reported quarter to reach roughly 2.7 billion US dollars by mid-2025. Notably, there was a substantial rise between December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2022, where equity grew from slightly over 1 billion to more than 2.1 billion US dollars. A slight dip was observed around March 31, 2023, before continuing the upward trajectory.
Debt to Equity Ratio
The debt to equity ratio declined sharply from 0.21 at March 31, 2020, to 0.09 by September 30, 2020, aligning with the sharp reduction in total debt and growth in equity during the same period. Subsequent quarters lack reported ratio values, implying minimal or no debt relative to the equity base, reinforcing the observation of a very low leverage position post-2020.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.


The analysis of the financial data reveals several notable trends regarding the company's debt levels, equity, and leverage ratios over the observed periods.

Total debt (including operating lease liability)
The total debt showed a declining trend from March 2020 through December 2023, dropping from approximately $370 million to around $236 million. This represents a significant reduction in debt levels during this span. However, starting in March 2024, the debt exhibits an upward trajectory, increasing steadily through June 2025 to reach nearly $344 million. This inflection suggests a strategic shift towards increased borrowing or lease obligations in the most recent periods.
Stockholders’ equity
Stockholders’ equity displayed consistent growth from March 2020 to December 2023. Beginning at approximately $674 million, equity rose steadily to a peak of about $2.16 billion in December 2023, indicating enhanced net asset value and retained earnings. Following this peak, equity continued its upward movement to $2.41 billion by June 2024 and further ascended to around $2.95 billion by March 2025, though a decline was noted thereafter, settling near $2.70 billion by June 2025. This overall upward trend reflects strong capitalization and possibly profitable operations or equity infusions.
Debt to equity ratio (including operating lease liability)
The debt to equity ratio consistently decreased from 0.55 in March 2020 to a low of approximately 0.11 between March 2024 and March 2025, implying a reduction in leverage and an improvement in solvency during that period. This ratio remained remarkably stable at around 0.11 for multiple quarters, indicative of maintained financial discipline. However, by June 2025, the ratio rose slightly to 0.12 and then to 0.13, coinciding with the observed increase in total debt and recent equity fluctuations. This slight uptick in leverage may suggest a moderate shift in financial strategy or response to market conditions.

In summary, the financial data shows a phase of deleveraging from early 2020 to the end of 2023, with declining debt and robust equity growth, improving the company’s capital structure. Starting in 2024, total debt increased alongside equity, causing a modest rise in leverage ratios, indicating a potential increase in financial risk or strategic investment funding. Monitoring subsequent periods will be important to assess whether this trend continues or stabilizes.

The analysis of the quarterly financial data reveals several important trends related to the company's capital structure and debt levels over the period presented.

Total Debt
The total debt exhibits a declining trend in the initial periods, from $143,000 thousand on March 31, 2020 to $72,000 thousand on September 30, 2020. After this point, no further data is available, making it difficult to assess the trend beyond the third quarter of 2020. The reduction in total debt during this timeframe suggests an early effort to deleverage or reduce liabilities.
Total Capital
Total capital shows a consistent upward trend across all periods from March 31, 2020 to June 30, 2025. Starting at approximately $817 million, the figure grows steadily, reaching around $2.7 billion by mid-2025. This continuous growth indicates a strengthening capital base, possibly driven by retained earnings, equity issuance, or other financing activities. However, there is a small downturn observed from December 31, 2024 to June 30, 2025, where capital decreased from roughly $2.95 billion to $2.70 billion, suggesting a minor contraction or capital adjustment during that timeframe.
Debt to Capital Ratio
Debt to capital ratios are only reported for the initial three quarters of 2020. During this brief period, the ratio declines from 0.18 to 0.08, reflecting the decrease in debt relative to total capital. The low and decreasing debt-to-capital ratio suggests reduced financial leverage and potentially lower risk in the capital structure during this early phase. The absence of data beyond this period prevents further evaluation of leverage trends in subsequent years.

Overall, the data indicates a strategic move towards capital growth accompanied by debt reduction in early periods, culminating in a stronger equity or capital-funded position. The lack of continued debt and leverage data beyond 2020 limits comprehensive capital structure analysis for later periods, though total capital’s growth trajectory signifies expanding business scale or capitalization.

Total debt (including operating lease liability)
The total debt level experienced a fluctuating trend from March 31, 2020, through June 30, 2024. Initially, debt stood at approximately $370.2 million, increasing slightly to a peak near $378.9 million by mid-2020. Subsequently, it showed a consistent decline until the end of 2021, reaching around $235.9 million. Following this, debt gradually increased again, reaching approximately $343.5 million by mid-2025. Overall, the debt pattern shows periods of reduction followed by increases, with the lowest point occurring in late 2021 and a rising trend in the most recent quarters.
Total capital (including operating lease liability)
Total capital demonstrated a steady and generally increasing trajectory over the entire timeframe. Starting from about $1.04 billion in early 2020, total capital increased consistently across the years, peaking near $3.26 billion by early 2025. Notable acceleration is seen from early 2021 onwards, with several quarters showing substantial growth, indicating increasing capitalization or equity financing over the observed period. A modest decline can be observed after early 2025, though capital levels remain significantly higher than at the beginning of the period.
Debt to capital ratio (including operating lease liability)
The debt to capital ratio exhibited a marked downward trend during the initial periods, dropping from 0.35 in March 2020 to approximately 0.10 by the end of 2021. This decrease indicates a reduction in leverage relative to total capital. From early 2022 through mid-2025, this ratio stabilized around the 0.10 to 0.11 range, suggesting a sustained lower leverage position in recent years. The decline in the debt to capital ratio primarily reflects the significant growth in total capital relative to the more moderate variations in total debt, indicating improved balance sheet strength and potentially reduced financial risk.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.


Total Debt
The total debt figures are only available for the first three quarters ending March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020. During this period, the total debt showed a significant decrease from 143,000 thousand USD to 72,000 thousand USD, indicating a reduction in leverage or repayment of debt obligations. Data for total debt in subsequent quarters is not provided, limiting further debt trend analysis.
Total Assets
The total assets exhibit a consistent upward trend from March 31, 2020, through June 30, 2025. Starting at approximately 1.77 billion USD in early 2020, total assets increase steadily over the periods, reaching around 5.96 billion USD by June 30, 2025. This growth represents a nearly 3.4-fold increase over five years, which may reflect expansion, acquisitions, or strong operational performance contributing to asset accumulation.
Debt to Assets Ratio
The debt to assets ratio is reported only for the first three quarters of 2020, with values declining from 0.08 to 0.03. This decrease aligns with the reduction in total debt while assets increased slightly during the same period. The low and declining ratio suggests a strong equity position relative to debt at the start of the dataset. However, no further data on this ratio is available to assess later changes in the company's capital structure.
Overall Insights
The data highlights a strategic decrease in debt levels early on, paired with a significant and continuous increase in total assets over multiple years. The absence of debt data after September 2020 limits the ability to fully assess leverage dynamics through the later periods. Nonetheless, the substantial asset growth suggests expanding business scale and possibly improved financial stability. The company appears to focus on asset growth while potentially maintaining a conservative debt posture during the period with available debt information.

The financial data reveals several important trends regarding debt levels, total assets, and leverage ratios over multiple consecutive quarters.

Total debt (including operating lease liability)

The total debt initially shows a peak of approximately 378.9 million USD in mid-2020, after which there is a steady decline through to early 2024, reaching a minimum around 235.9 million USD. From mid-2024 onward, the total debt starts to increase again, rising notably to about 343.5 million USD by mid-2025. This pattern suggests an initial deleveraging phase, followed by renewed borrowing or increased liabilities in the most recent quarters.

Total assets

Total assets exhibit a consistent upward trajectory throughout the entire period. Starting from approximately 1.77 billion USD at the beginning of 2020, assets increase steadily, with some acceleration during mid-2021 to early 2025, ultimately reaching nearly 6 billion USD by mid-2025. This indicates substantial asset growth, likely reflecting business expansion, investments, or acquisition activities over the reporting periods.

Debt to assets ratio (including operating lease liability)

The debt to assets ratio shows a clear downward trend from early 2020, beginning at 0.21 and decreasing steadily to around 0.05 by early 2024, which signals improved leverage and a reduction in debt burden relative to asset base during that timeframe. Afterward, the ratio stabilizes near 0.05 to 0.06, suggesting that despite the recent increase in total debt, the company maintains a relatively low leverage position compared to its asset size.

Overall, the data indicates a period marked by disciplined debt reduction paired with steady asset growth, improving the company's financial stability and leverage profile. The recent uptick in debt levels warrants attention; however, due to the continued growth in assets, leverage remains at historically low levels, reflecting a strong and growing balance sheet.

The financial data exhibits distinct trends in total assets, stockholders’ equity, and financial leverage over the reported periods.

Total Assets
Total assets show a general upward trajectory from March 31, 2020, through June 30, 2025, indicating growth in the company’s asset base. Starting at approximately 1.77 billion US dollars at the beginning of 2020, assets increased steadily to around 6.12 billion by December 31, 2024. A slight decline is observed at the end of the period to approximately 5.71 billion in March 31, 2025, followed by a modest recovery to about 5.96 billion by June 30, 2025. The growth suggests continuing investment or acquisition of assets over time, supporting expansion or operational scaling.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity also demonstrates consistent growth from early 2020 through the analyzed periods, starting at 674 million US dollars and rising to a peak of nearly 2.95 billion by March 31, 2025. Notably, equity climbed steadily with some fluctuations towards the end of the term where it slightly decreased from 2.95 billion in March 2025 to 2.72 billion by June 30, 2025. Despite this slight decline, equity remains substantially higher than initial levels, reflecting accumulation of retained earnings or capital injections, contributing to strengthened financial foundation.
Financial Leverage
The financial leverage ratio, which measures the proportion of total assets financed by equity, shows a trend of decrease from 2.62 in March 31, 2020 to a low around 2.05-2.07 during 2022, indicating a reduction in relative debt or an increase in equity proportion during this timeframe. The ratio then fluctuates slightly, rising to about 2.26 by the end of 2023, followed by a gradual decline to around 2.07 by March 31, 2025. By June 30, 2025, there is a moderate increase to 2.21. These movements suggest periods of changing financing structure, with phases of increased leverage followed by opportunities of deleveraging, reflecting dynamic capital management.

Overall, the data reveals growth in the company’s asset base and equity, along with moderate but stable financial leverage. The increase in equity relative to assets suggests an improving capital structure, while the consistency in leverage around 2.0 to 2.3 indicates the company maintains a balanced approach to financing through debt and equity over the period.
