The analysis of the liquidity ratios over the observed periods reveals several notable trends and fluctuations. The current ratio shows an overall decreasing trajectory from the beginning of the period, starting at 5.82 and declining to 3.33 by the end of the final quarter. Despite intermittent recoveries, the general movement suggests a reduction in the company's short-term liquidity position over time.

Similarly, the quick ratio follows a comparable downward trend, beginning at 5.22 and descending to 2.58 by the final period. This decrease, though marked by occasional slight increases, indicates a consistent reduction in the company's ability to meet short-term obligations with its most liquid assets, excluding inventory.

The cash ratio, which measures the most immediate liquidity from cash and cash equivalents, also declines notably from an initial value of 4.6 to 2.18 in the last quarter examined. The decline here is somewhat steady, with minor fluctuations but an evident downward slope, indicating a decrease in cash reserves relative to current liabilities.

Current Ratio
Starts high at 5.82, decreases steadily with some fluctuations, reaching a low of 3.33 by the last recorded quarter.
Quick Ratio
Begins at 5.22 and similarly trends downward to 2.58, indicating reduced availability of liquid assets excluding inventory for short-term liabilities.
Cash Ratio
Decreases from 4.6 to 2.18, reflecting a significant fall in cash and cash equivalents relative to current liabilities over the period.

Overall, these trends suggest a decreasing liquidity buffer across all measured ratios, pointing towards a more constrained short-term financial position. However, despite the declines, the ratios remain above 1 in all periods, indicating that the company still maintains a margin of liquidity to cover current liabilities, though this margin has narrowed notably over time.

The analysis of the quarterly financial data reveals several notable trends in the company's liquidity and working capital management over the observed periods.

Current Assets
Current assets exhibited a generally upward trend from March 31, 2020, through June 30, 2025. Starting at approximately $3.34 billion, current assets steadily increased over time, reaching about $13.50 billion by mid-2025. This consistent growth suggests an increase in liquid or near-liquid resources available for meeting short-term obligations.
Current Liabilities
Current liabilities also increased over the same period but with more fluctuations. Beginning around $573 million in early 2020, liabilities rose continuously to exceed $4 billion by mid-2025. While the growth in liabilities is significant, the rise appears to be less linear and shows periods of more pronounced increase, particularly from late 2024 onward.
Current Ratio
The current ratio, representing the company's short-term liquidity, demonstrated a declining trend from 5.82 in March 2020 to 3.33 by June 2025. Despite some short-term fluctuations, the overall movement reflects a decrease in the company's ability to cover current liabilities with current assets. The ratio remained well above 1.0 throughout, indicating that the company maintained liquidity; however, the decline may warrant attention as it suggests a tightening liquidity position over time.

In summary, although current assets grew substantially over the analyzed periods, current liabilities increased at a relatively faster pace, leading to a gradual decrease in the current ratio. The company appears to have expanded its asset base significantly, but the proportionate increase in liabilities has reduced the margin of short-term financial safety. Monitoring this trend is advisable to ensure that liquidity remains sufficient to meet operational and financial demands.

1 Q2 2025 Calculation
Quick ratio = Total quick assets ÷ Current liabilities
= 10,468,000 ÷ 4,051,400 = 2.58

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.


The financial data reveals a dynamic trend over the observed periods in key liquidity metrics. Total quick assets demonstrate a generally increasing trajectory from March 2020 through the end of the forecast in June 2025, with some variability observed in mid-2022. The values start at approximately $2.99 billion and steadily climb, reaching over $10.46 billion by the middle of 2025. This trend indicates growing liquid assets available to cover short-term obligations, suggesting improved or sustained financial strength in terms of asset liquidity.

Current liabilities also show an upward trend, rising from around $573 million in March 2020 to a forecasted $4.05 billion by June 2025. While current liabilities increase substantially, the growth in total quick assets remains proportionally higher, which is a sign that the company is maintaining liquidity growth at a pace that exceeds the increase in short-term obligations.

The quick ratio, which is a measure of short-term liquidity calculated as quick assets divided by current liabilities, reflects the interplay between these two components. The quick ratio declines from a very strong 5.22 in early 2020 to a lower point near 2.58 by mid-2025. Despite this decline, a quick ratio above 1 indicates that the company continues to have more quick assets than current liabilities, implying it is not in immediate risk of liquidity issues.

Across the timeline, the quick ratio shows some volatility. After an initial decrease from 5.22 to around 3.54 by the end of 2021, it further drops below 3.00 in early 2022. Thereafter, it fluctuates between approximately 2.58 and 3.67 through the forecast period. This volatility suggests periods where current liabilities grow at a faster rate relative to liquid assets, followed by partial recoveries in the ratio, indicating some potential management of liquidity pressures or changes in operational needs.

Total Quick Assets
Exhibit a strong upward trend from $2.99 billion in March 2020 to an estimated $10.46 billion by June 2025, signifying increased liquid asset availability over the period.
Current Liabilities
Increase significantly from $573 million to $4.05 billion in the same timeframe. While liabilities escalate, their growth is proportionally less aggressive compared to quick assets.
Quick Ratio
Declines from an exceptionally high 5.22 early in the period to around 2.58 by mid-2025, indicating that although liquidity is strong, it is relatively lower compared to earlier periods. Fluctuations in this ratio point to varying pressures on liquidity at different quarters.

In summary, the company's liquidity position remains robust throughout the period, with a solid buffer of quick assets relative to current liabilities. Despite the declining trend in the quick ratio, the levels remain above common liquidity risk thresholds. This suggests a relatively strong capacity to meet short-term obligations, though the observed declines and volatility warrant attention to ensure ongoing liquidity management aligns with the growing scale of current liabilities.

Total Cash Assets
The total cash assets exhibit a general upward trend from March 31, 2020, through June 30, 2025. Initially, cash assets increased steadily from approximately $2.64 billion in early 2020 to a peak of around $3.41 billion at the end of 2021. A decline followed in 2022, dropping to about $2.9 billion mid-year, before recovering and continuing to rise sharply from early 2023 onwards. By mid-2025, cash assets reached approximately $8.84 billion. This pattern indicates periods of cash accumulation, a temporary drawdown in 2022, and a robust growth phase in the subsequent years.
Current Liabilities
Current liabilities have steadily increased over the period, starting at approximately $573 million in March 2020 and rising consistently to about $4.05 billion by June 2025. Notable increments are observed particularly from late 2021 onwards, where current liabilities increased significantly—nearly quadrupling over the span of four years. This sustained increase suggests growing short-term obligations or operational scale expansion.
Cash Ratio
The cash ratio, reflecting liquidity by comparing cash assets to current liabilities, generally declined from a high of 4.6 in March 2020 to a low near 2.1 by March 2023. This decrease points to the company's cash growing at a slower pace than its current liabilities during this period. After this trough, the ratio improved moderately, fluctuating between 2.18 and 3.06 from mid-2023 through mid-2025, indicating a partial recovery in liquidity relative to short-term obligations but not reaching initial levels. The ratio's downward trend followed by stabilization reflects evolving liquidity management amid increasing liabilities.
