Current borrowings
Current borrowings as a percentage of total liabilities and equity fluctuated over the period, starting at 0.27% in 2013, reaching a peak of 1.96% in 2018. There was a notable increase from 2017 to 2018, indicating a rise in short-term debt relative to total liabilities and equity.
Accrued expenses
Accrued expenses data is only available from 2016 onward, where it shows a slight decreasing trend from 5.12% in 2016 to 4.53% in 2018, suggesting a reduction in obligations recorded but not yet paid.
Accounts payable
Accounts payable increased gradually from 0.56% in 2016 to 0.82% in 2018. This indicates a modest rise in the company's short-term obligations to suppliers.
Other current liabilities
Other current liabilities experienced a sharp decline from 8.7% in 2013 to 0.68% in 2018, with a significant drop between 2015 and 2016. This reflects a substantial reduction in miscellaneous short-term obligations.
Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities (combined)
Combined current liabilities other than borrowings declined from 8.7% in 2013 to 6.03% in 2018 after reaching a peak in 2015. The trend indicates a general decrease in these operational liabilities over time.
Participations, residuals and royalties payable
These payables remained relatively stable, fluctuating narrowly around 3.25% to 3.46% of total liabilities and equity across the period, showing consistent obligations in this category.
Program rights payable
Program rights payable showed some variability, starting at 2.99% in 2013, dipping to 2% in 2015, and then rising slightly to 2.54% in 2018. The fluctuations suggest periodic changes in content-related liabilities.
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue remained relatively stable, with a slight increase from 0.9% in 2015 to 1.53% in 2018, indicating growing advance payments or obligations to deliver goods or services in the future.
Current liabilities (total)
The total current liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities and equity showed a slight overall decrease from 16.56% in 2013 to 15.31% in 2018, with some fluctuations in between, reflecting a relatively stable short-term liability position.
Non-current borrowings
Non-current borrowings increased from 32.04% in 2013 to a peak of 39.9% in 2016, then decreased to 34.31% by 2018. This indicates considerable reliance on long-term debt, with an overall upward trend until mid-period followed by a moderate reduction.

Deferred income taxes
Deferred income taxes exhibited variability, climbing from 4.16% in 2015 to 5.97% in 2016, then declining sharply to 3.51% in 2018. This indicates significant changes in tax liabilities or timing differences over the years.
Non-current liabilities (total)
Non-current liabilities increased steadily from 42.92% in 2013 to a peak of 53.48% in 2016 before declining to 44.63% in 2018. This trend suggests growing long-term obligations initially, followed by a notable reduction.
Total liabilities
Total liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities and equity rose from 59.48% in 2013 to a peak of 68.09% in 2016, then decreased to 59.95% in 2018. This pattern indicates increasing leverage up to 2016, with partial deleveraging thereafter.

Retained earnings
Retained earnings increased significantly from 2.85% in 2013 to 16.6% in 2018, with some fluctuations. This reflects accumulated profits being retained in the company, contributing increasingly to equity.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss
This loss deepened from near zero in 2014 (-0.06%) to around -3.72% in 2018, indicating growing negative comprehensive income components affecting equity.

Equity attributable to the parent company varied, declining from 33.37% in 2013 to a low of 28.25% in 2016, before rising again to 36.34% in 2018. The pattern suggests some equity erosion followed by recovery.
