- Cash and cash equivalents
- The cash and cash equivalents balance exhibits significant volatility across the periods. It peaked notably at the end of September 2016 at approximately 7.55 billion US dollars, followed by a sharp decline in subsequent quarters. After fluctuating, it reached a low of around 788.5 million US dollars in March 2019 before experiencing an increase to about 2.5 billion US dollars by December 2019, then falling back to just under 1 billion by March 2020.
- Marketable securities
- This item demonstrates a substantial spike in the second quarter of 2016, with a peak of nearly 19.8 billion US dollars, after which it declines sharply and fluctuates around lower levels. By the end of the observed period, the value remains lower than earlier peak levels but shows some variability quarter to quarter.
- Accounts receivable, net
- Accounts receivable presents a degree of fluctuation but remains within a relatively stable range from around 2.4 billion to 3.2 billion US dollars. A slight upward trend can be observed towards the end of the period, reaching approximately 3.19 billion in the fourth quarter of 2019 before a decrease to 2.8 billion in the first quarter of 2020.
- Inventories
- Inventory values decrease significantly from early 2015 to late 2016, dropping from over 3.1 billion to around 700 million US dollars. Following this, inventories show a steady increase, reaching nearly 1.2 billion US dollars by March 2020, indicating a recovery or build-up of stock.
- Current assets held for sale
- This category shows some large values in 2015 and 2016, with peaks exceeding 4 billion US dollars, followed by missing data in many quarters thereafter. Toward the end of the period, smaller amounts below 50 million US dollars are reported, indicating a reduction or completion of asset disposals.
- Prepaid expenses and other current assets
- Prepaid expenses and other current assets show fluctuations around the 700 million to 1.3 billion US dollars range, with a notable peak in June 2019 at over 2.5 billion US dollars, followed by a return to lower values. This pattern suggests irregular timing or recognition of such expenses within certain quarters.
- Deferred tax assets (current)
- Current deferred tax assets display values in early 2015 but are largely absent in subsequent quarters, indicating possible reclassification or realization.
- Current assets
- Current assets overall peak at 31.7 billion US dollars in September 2016, driven largely by the marked increase in marketable securities and current assets held for sale. Post this peak, there is a decline followed by stabilization around 6 to 11 billion US dollars towards the end of the period.
- Property, plant and equipment, net
- There is a slight upward trend in the net value of property, plant, and equipment, increasing from approximately 2.8 billion US dollars at the start to nearly 1.9 billion US dollars, showing modest growth and investment over time. The data reflects stability without significant fluctuation.
- Right of use asset, operating leases
- This asset category appears only in the last periods from March 2019 onward, starting around 455 million US dollars and growing gradually to 490 million, reflecting the adoption and capitalization of lease liabilities under new accounting standards.
- Investments and other assets
- The values remain mostly steady around 250 to 300 million US dollars for most periods until a substantial increase to about 1.97 billion US dollars in late 2018, then dropping and fluctuating again around 300 to 400 million by early 2020. This suggests intermittent large asset recognition or reclassification events.
- Non current assets held for sale
- These assets show very high values, over 10 billion US dollars, around 2015 and early 2016 but drastically decline afterward to tens or hundreds of millions, indicating major disposals. From mid-2017 to early 2020 the values remain low and stable, consistent with completion of sales or reclassification.
- Deferred tax assets (non-current)
- Non-current deferred tax assets fluctuate, peaking at over 1 million US dollars in early 2018 and then declining significantly by the end of the period, indicating varying tax attribute valuations or changes in deferred tax calculations.
- Product rights and other intangibles
- This category shows a clear decreasing trend over the entire period, falling from about 74.2 billion US dollars in early 2015 to approximately 36.3 billion US dollars by March 2020. This sustained decline may be due to amortization, impairment, or asset sales.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill remains relatively stable with minor fluctuations, starting around 50.8 billion US dollars in early 2015 and gradually declining to about 41.2 billion by March 2020. This downward trend likely reflects annual impairment assessments or disposals.
- Non current assets
- Non-current assets decrease steadily from around 128.4 billion US dollars in early 2015 to about 80.9 billion US dollars by the end of the observed period, indicating asset disposals, amortizations, or impairments across various categories.
- Total assets
- Total assets fluctuate, reaching a peak of approximately 143.6 billion US dollars in September 2016, largely influenced by spikes in current assets held for sale and marketable securities. Following this peak, total assets decline steadily to about 88.4 billion US dollars by March 2020, reflecting overall reduction in asset base.
