Based on: 10-K (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2019-09-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2018-09-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2017-09-30), 10-K (reporting date: 2016-09-30).
- Materials
-
The value of materials showed a moderate upward trend over the six-year period. Starting at 316 million USD in 2016, there was a slight decline in 2017 to 313 million USD, followed by a substantial increase in 2018 to 510 million USD. From 2018 onwards, materials consistently increased, reaching 641 million USD by 2021. This indicates a growing investment in raw materials, which could suggest expansion or increased production levels.
- Work in Process
-
Work in process inventory remained relatively stable between 2016 and 2017, with values of 274 million USD and 271 million USD respectively. From 2018 to 2021, there was a steady increase, rising from 297 million USD to 402 million USD. This gradual growth may reflect increasing production complexity or longer manufacturing cycles.
- Finished Products
-
Finished products inventory exhibited a significant upward trajectory throughout the period. It increased from 1,129 million USD in 2016 to 1,234 million USD in 2017, followed by a notable jump to 1,644 million USD in 2018. The upward trend continued steadily, reaching 1,823 million USD by 2021. This consistent growth suggests either an accumulation of finished goods in anticipation of demand or a build-up due to slower sales.
- Inventories (Total)
-
Total inventories showed a pronounced increase year over year, starting at 1,719 million USD in 2016 and rising steadily to 2,866 million USD in 2021. The inventory growth closely mirrors the trends of its components, particularly the finished products, which make up the largest portion. This overall upward inventory trend indicates a strengthening asset position but also points to potential risks such as overstocking or changes in demand patterns that may require monitoring.
