The financial data reveals several notable trends and shifts in asset composition over the analyzed quarterly periods.

Cash and cash equivalents
This component as a percentage of total assets demonstrated a fluctuating pattern. Initially increasing from 9.61% in early 2020 to a peak of 12.26% at the end of 2020, it then generally declined during 2021 and 2022, reaching a low around 5.38% to 5.54%. From 2023 onwards, cash levels showed a recovering trend, climbing again to roughly 8% by early 2025.
Accounts receivable, net
Accounts receivable remained relatively stable with minor fluctuations, mostly hovering around 1% to 1.5% of total assets. Notably, there were small dips around mid-2023 and fluctuations toward higher values near the end of 2024 and early 2025, indicating moderate variability but no clear long-term trend.
Inventory
Inventory as a percentage of total assets was consistently low, generally between 0.4% and 0.55%. It showed mild increases and decreases throughout the periods but stayed relatively stable without significant swings.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets
This category presented a gradual increase from below 1% to peaks near 1.46% in late 2022, with some oscillations later but maintaining a higher level than in early 2020. This suggests a growing allocation to prepaid and similar assets over time.
Income tax receivable
There was notable volatility in this line item. From a low near 1% in early 2020, it sharply rose to nearly 4.73% by the end of 2020, followed by decreases and some missing data points. This pattern indicates irregularities or episodic events affecting tax receivables during the timeframe.
Current investments
Current investments started around 7% of total assets but declined to below 4% by 2021-end. A substantial increase occurred in 2023, reaching over 11%, before slightly decreasing and stabilizing near 7-9% toward early 2025. This suggests variability in short-term investment strategies with an emphasis on increased liquidity in 2023.
Current assets
The overall share of current assets in total assets peaked at nearly 24% by the end of 2020, followed by a sharp decline during 2021 and 2022 to around 16%. It then rebounded to roughly 21% in mid-2023 before a gradual decline again, ending near 18% in early 2025. The fluctuations imply shifts in liquidity and short-term asset management.
Leasehold improvements, property and equipment, net
This asset class maintained a generally stable share between 25% and 28%. Minor declines appeared in 2023, but restoration occurred by early 2025. This stability suggests steady investment and maintenance of physical assets.
Long-term investments
Long-term investments showed a progressive increase from under 2% in early 2020 to a peak exceeding 10% in late 2023 and 2024. Some decline towards early 2025 is observed, but the general direction indicates a strategic increase in long-duration asset holdings.
Restricted cash
Restricted cash was consistently low and stable around 0.3% to 0.5% of total assets, showing no significant changes over time.
Operating lease assets
As a major component, operating lease assets declined steadily from roughly 50% in early 2020 to approximately 43-44% in 2023-2024, with a slight increase again by early 2025. This decline could indicate lease expirations or changes in leasing strategies.
Other assets
These assets steadily increased over the period, particularly towards the end of the dataset, from under 0.5% to above 1.2%. This growth suggests rising value or categorization changes in miscellaneous asset areas.
Goodwill
Goodwill showed a consistent decline from 0.42% to about 0.24% of total assets, signifying possible amortization or impairment impacts.
Long-term assets
Long-term assets as a proportion of total assets remained strong, generally above 75%, increasing to over 83% by 2022 and stabilizing near 80-81% thereafter. This confirms the asset base is primarily comprised of longer-tenure investments and fixed assets.

In summary, the company experienced fluctuating liquidity levels with varying allocations between cash, current, and long-term investments. Long-term asset investments and operating lease assets dominate the asset structure, though operating leases show a decreasing trend. Volatility in income tax receivables and growth in other assets and long-term investments highlight dynamic financial positioning adjustments over the period.
