Short-term borrowings
The short-term borrowings significantly decreased from US$34 million in 2020 to US$14 million in 2021, and further declined sharply to US$1 million in 2022. No data is reported for 2023 and 2024, suggesting either a negligible balance or unreported figures for these years.
Current portion of long-term debt and finance lease obligations
This component exhibited volatility across the period. It increased from US$8,468 million in 2020 to a peak of US$12,481 million in 2021, followed by a considerable drop to US$4,135 million in 2022. Subsequently, it rose again to US$7,191 million in 2023 and slightly decreased to US$6,804 million in 2024. This pattern indicates fluctuating short-term debt obligations within the long-term debt structure.
Long-term debt and finance lease obligations, excluding current portion
There is a notable declining trend in the long-term debt balance excluding the current portion, which decreased from US$77,554 million in 2020 to US$64,189 million in 2021, US$59,135 million in 2022, and further down to US$52,194 million in 2023. However, an increase to US$60,340 million in 2024 interrupts this downward trend, signaling possible new long-term borrowings or refinancing activities in the most recent year.
Total debt and finance lease obligations (carrying amount)
The total debt and finance lease obligations mirrored the movements in individual debt components, initially declining from US$86,056 million in 2020 to US$76,684 million in 2021, and further falling to US$63,271 million in 2022. A continued decline to US$59,385 million is observed in 2023, followed by an upward movement to US$67,144 million in 2024. This reflects an overall reduction in indebtedness over the earlier years, with increased borrowing or reduced repayments in the last reported period.
