- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The proportion of cash and cash equivalents relative to total assets increased from 5.1% in 2020 to a peak of 10.66% in 2022, followed by a slight decline to 8.83% in 2024. This indicates a notable accumulation of liquid assets particularly in 2022, with a moderate reduction in subsequent years.
- Short-term and Other Investments
- There was a marked decrease in short-term and other investments as a percentage of total assets from 11.73% in 2020 to 1.9% in 2022. However, this category rebounded to 7.98% by 2024, suggesting a strategic reallocation or recovery in investment holdings after a significant decline.
- Accounts Receivable, Net
- The percentage of accounts receivable relative to total assets exhibited minor fluctuations, rising from 1.29% in 2020 to 1.93% in 2023, before decreasing slightly to 1.68% in 2024. This overall stability implies consistent credit sales or collection practices over the period.
- Unbilled Receivables, Net
- Unbilled receivables remained relatively steady, increasing marginally from 5.26% in 2020 to 6.3% in 2022, then declining gradually to 5.35% in 2024. This suggests stable project billing cycles and revenue recognition patterns.
- Current Portion of Financing Receivables, Net
- This item showed marginal variation, maintaining a low proportion near or below 0.13%, indicating a minimal impact on the asset structure from short-term financing receivables.
- Inventories
- Inventories consistently represented the largest current asset component, increasing from 53.71% in 2020 to 58.2% in 2023, with a slight reduction to 55.99% in 2024. This trend indicates growing investment in inventories, possibly reflecting buildup in materials or completed goods, with a minor easing in the final year.
- Other Current Assets, Net
- This category experienced a decline from 2.82% in 2020 to 1.6% in 2021, followed by small fluctuations, ending at 1.9% in 2024. Such changes are marginal and suggest relatively stable other current asset levels.
- Current Assets
- Overall current assets maintained a stable proportion of total assets, hovering around 79-82%, evidencing a consistent asset allocation heavily weighted towards current assets throughout the period.
- Financing Receivables and Operating Lease Equipment, Net
- A downward trend is observed here, with the ratio declining significantly from 1.27% in 2020 to 0.2% in 2024. This sharp decrease reflects a reduction in financing receivables and operating lease equipment assets, possibly due to asset disposals or changes in financing strategy.
- Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
- The share of property, plant, and equipment in total assets remained fairly stable, fluctuating marginally around 7.7-7.8%, with a slight decrease to 7.3% in 2024, indicating a consistent capital asset base.
- Goodwill
- Goodwill as a percentage of total assets showed a mild upward trend from 5.31% in 2020 to 5.91% in 2023 but declined to 5.17% in 2024, suggesting modest adjustments in intangible asset valuations or acquisitions.
- Acquired Intangible Assets, Net
- This category steadily decreased from 1.87% in 2020 to 1.25% in 2024, indicating amortization or disposal effects on intangible assets acquired through business combinations.
- Deferred Income Taxes
- The deferred income taxes proportion remained low and stable around 0.04-0.06% until a slight increase to 0.12% in 2024, which may reflect changes in tax assets or liabilities.
- Investments
- Long-term investments showed minor fluctuation, maintaining levels close to 0.64-0.76%, indicating a steady but minor allocation of assets in this category.
- Other Assets, Net of Accumulated Amortization
- This category varied between 3.04% and 4.04%, ending at 3.46% in 2024. Despite some fluctuations, it represented a consistent component of total assets.
- Long-term Assets
- Total long-term assets showed a moderate decline from 20.04% in 2020 to 18.14% in 2024. This trend suggests a relative shift in the asset structure, with a decreasing emphasis on long-term assets versus current assets.
- Total Assets
- By definition, total assets remain at 100% across all years, serving as the denominator for the proportions reported in other categories.
