The asset composition of the company exhibits significant structural shifts between 2011 and 2016, characterized by a transition from stable operational asset ratios to a period of high volatility associated with strategic corporate restructuring.

Liquidity and Current Asset Trends
Cash and equivalents demonstrate a volatile trend, fluctuating between a low of 7.28% and peaks of 25.22% in June 2013 and 22.26% in June 2015. Accounts receivable show a gradual long-term decline, moving from approximately 13-14% of total assets in 2011 to a range of 8-11% by 2016. A notable contraction in inventories is observed starting in late 2015, where the ratio dropped from a historical average of 13-14% to a low of 7.65% in December 2015, before partially recovering to 9.95% by June 2016.
Fixed and Intangible Asset Evolution
Property, plant and equipment, net, remained relatively stable at approximately 30% of total assets until 2015, at which point it experienced a sharp decline to 20.91% in December 2015, followed by a recovery to 27.09% by mid-2016. Concurrently, there is a steady upward trend in intangible assets. Goodwill increased from 11.83% in March 2011 to 16.63% by June 2016, while other intangible assets grew from 2.87% to 7.85% over the same period, indicating an increase in the proportion of non-physical assets relative to the total balance sheet.
Impact of Strategic Investments
A significant distortion in the common-size balance sheet occurs in late 2015 due to the investment in Baxalta common stock. This item appeared as 20.60% of total assets in September 2015 and peaked at 24.54% in December 2015, before declining to 7.10% in March 2016 and disappearing by June 2016. This event explains the temporary surge in total current assets, which peaked at 56.24% in December 2015.
Overall Asset Allocation
The balance between current and non-current assets shifted from a relatively stable distribution in 2011-2012 to a more dynamic state. Non-current assets generally trended upward from 55.43% in March 2011 to peak at 62.98% in June 2014, before the volatility induced by the Baxalta investment and subsequent realignment brought the ratio to 57.31% by June 2016.
