The asset structure demonstrates a strategic shift over the five-year period, characterized by a contraction in the weight of current assets and a corresponding expansion in noncurrent assets. Current assets decreased from 46.85% of total assets in 2018 to 33.01% in 2022, while noncurrent assets grew from 53.15% to 66.99% over the same duration.

Liquidity and Working Capital Trends
Cash and cash equivalents remained consistently low, generally below 1%, with the exception of a significant anomaly in 2020 where the share spiked to 10.15%. Both accounts receivable and inventories exhibited a persistent downward trend in their relative share of the balance sheet. Accounts receivable fell from 22.31% in 2018 to 13.67% in 2022, and inventories decreased from 20.36% to 13.46% during the same period.
Intangible Asset Expansion
A substantial increase in the proportion of intangible assets and goodwill is evident, particularly from 2021 onward. Goodwill rose from 25.25% in 2018 to 32.63% in 2022. Intangible assets, net, showed a more dramatic escalation, increasing from 3.52% in 2018 to a peak of 14.97% in 2021, ending at 14.64% in 2022.
Fixed and Right-of-Use Assets
Property, plant, and equipment, net, experienced a general decline in its relative weight, moving from 22.85% in 2018 to 14.80% in 2022. Operating lease right-of-use assets, which first appeared in the data in 2019 at 9.01%, trended downward to 4.58% by 2022.

The overall trend indicates a transition from a balance sheet heavily weighted toward operational working capital toward one dominated by intangible assets. The sharp rise in goodwill and intangibles in 2021 and 2022 suggests a shift in growth strategy favoring acquisitions over organic expansion of physical assets.
