Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2025-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31).
The solvency profile exhibits a distinct U-shaped trajectory, characterized by a period of steady deleveraging followed by a significant increase in financial obligations and leverage starting in late 2024 and continuing through mid-2026.
- Debt to Equity Ratio (Including Operating Lease Liability)
- A consistent downward trend is observed from March 2022, where the ratio stood at 1.67, reaching a low of 1.15 by June 2024. This indicates a period of improved solvency and reduced reliance on debt relative to equity. However, this trend reversed sharply after June 2024, with the ratio climbing to a peak of 2.46 in June 2026, representing a substantial increase in the company's leverage before a slight moderation to 2.28 in September 2026.
- Debt to Capital and Debt to Assets Ratios
- Both metrics mirrored the overall deleveraging pattern through the first half of the analyzed period. Debt to capital declined from 0.62 in March 2022 to a minimum of 0.54 in June 2024, while debt to assets fell from 0.55 to 0.48 over the same period. Following June 2024, both ratios entered an upward phase, peaking in June 2026 at 0.71 for debt to capital and 0.61 for debt to assets, suggesting an expansion of total liabilities relative to the company's asset base and total capital.
- Financial Leverage
- Financial leverage experienced a gradual contraction from 3.03 in March 2022 to a trough of 2.40 in June 2024. This was followed by a rapid escalation, reaching a peak of 4.03 in June 2026. The significant increase in this ratio indicates a heightened use of debt to finance assets during the 2025-2026 period, which typically correlates with increased financial risk.
The data suggests a strategic shift in capital structure starting in the second half of 2024. While the company successfully reduced its solvency risk between early 2022 and mid-2024, the subsequent surge in all measured ratios indicates a marked increase in the proportion of debt and lease liabilities within the balance sheet by mid-2026.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The solvency analysis indicates a capital structure devoid of reported debt throughout the period from March 2022 through September 2026. Due to the absence of interest-bearing liabilities, the debt-to-equity ratio is effectively zero, signifying a low-risk solvency position and a total reliance on equity financing.
- Shareholders' Equity Growth Phase
- A consistent upward trend in shareholders' equity is observed from March 2022, starting at $2.13 billion and peaking at $3.71 billion in June 2024. This growth reflects a significant accumulation of capital over a twenty-seven month period.
- Equity Contraction
- Following the peak in June 2024, a sustained decline in equity is evident, with values dropping to $2.20 billion by June 2026. This reduction represents a substantial decrease in the equity base following the period of expansion.
- Recent Stabilization
- A moderate recovery is noted in the final reported quarter ending September 2026, where shareholders' equity increased to $2.46 billion, suggesting a reversal of the previous downward trajectory.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The solvency profile exhibits two distinct phases between March 2022 and September 2026, characterized by an initial period of improving leverage followed by a significant deterioration in the debt-to-equity position.
- Total Debt Trajectory
- A consistent and uninterrupted upward trend is observed in total debt, including operating lease liabilities. Liabilities grew from 3.55 billion USD in March 2022 to 5.60 billion USD by September 2026. This represents a steady increase in the company's total obligations over the analyzed period.
- Shareholders' Equity Volatility
- Shareholders' equity experienced significant fluctuations. An initial growth phase occurred from March 2022, where equity rose from 2.13 billion USD to a peak of 3.71 billion USD in June 2024. This was followed by a sustained decline, reaching a low of 2.20 billion USD in June 2026, before a partial recovery to 2.46 billion USD in September 2026.
- Debt to Equity Ratio Analysis
- The debt to equity ratio reflects a U-shaped trend. From March 2022 to June 2024, the ratio improved from 1.67 to a minimum of 1.15, as the growth in shareholders' equity outpaced the increase in total debt. However, from September 2024 onward, the ratio climbed sharply, peaking at 2.46 in June 2026. This inversion was driven by the simultaneous increase in total liabilities and the contraction of the equity base. The period concluded with a slight reduction to 2.28 by September 2026.
The overall analysis indicates that while the company successfully lowered its leverage ratio in the first half of the period, the subsequent reduction in equity combined with rising lease and debt obligations has resulted in a substantially higher reliance on debt relative to equity by the end of the observed timeframe.

1 Q3 2026 Calculation
Debt to capital = Total debt ÷ Total capital
= 0 ÷ 2,455,144 = 0.00
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
An analysis of the solvency data indicates that specific figures for total debt and the resulting debt-to-capital ratio were not reported for the period spanning March 31, 2022, to September 30, 2026. Consequently, a quantitative assessment of the leverage ratio is not possible. However, the movements in total capital provide insight into the company's overall financial structure during this timeframe.
- Total Capital Growth and Peak
- A consistent increase in total capital is observed from March 31, 2022, where the value stood at 2,133,960 thousand US$, reaching a peak of 3,711,820 thousand US$ by June 30, 2024. This represents a substantial expansion of the capital base over a period of approximately two years.
- Capital Contraction and Recovery
- Following the June 2024 peak, total capital entered a period of steady decline, falling to a low of 2,199,791 thousand US$ by June 30, 2026. A moderate recovery is noted in the final reported quarter, with total capital rising to 2,455,144 thousand US$ as of September 30, 2026.
- Debt-to-Capital Ratio Observations
- Due to the complete absence of recorded total debt values throughout the entire observation period, the debt-to-capital ratio cannot be calculated. The lack of debt figures suggests a capital structure that may be predominantly equity-funded or reflects a lack of reported long-term debt obligations for the period analyzed.

The solvency profile demonstrates a distinct shift in the relationship between total debt and total capital from March 2022 through September 2026. The debt-to-capital ratio, which incorporates operating lease liabilities, followed a cyclical pattern characterized by an initial period of improvement followed by a marked increase in leverage.
- Total Debt Trajectory
- A consistent upward trend in total debt is observed, with liabilities increasing from $3.55 billion in March 2022 to $5.60 billion by September 2026. This steady growth indicates a continuous increase in total obligations, including lease commitments, throughout the analyzed period.
- Total Capital Fluctuations
- Total capital expanded from $5.69 billion in March 2022 to a peak of $8.31 billion in June 2025. Subsequently, a contraction phase occurred between June 2025 and June 2026, where capital decreased to $7.62 billion, before recovering to $8.05 billion by September 2026.
- Debt-to-Capital Ratio Analysis
- The ratio exhibited a gradual decline from 0.62 in March 2022 to a minimum of 0.54 in June 2024, indicating that capital growth exceeded the rate of debt accumulation during this interval. A significant reversal occurred starting in 2025, with the ratio climbing to a peak of 0.71 in June 2026. This escalation is attributed to the convergence of steadily rising total debt and a temporary reduction in total capital, resulting in a higher proportion of debt within the overall capital structure by the end of the period.

= 0 ÷ 9,432,683 = 0.00
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The available financial data for the period spanning March 31, 2022, through September 30, 2026, permits an assessment of asset growth but precludes a complete solvency analysis due to the absence of debt-related figures.
- Total Assets Trend
- An overall upward trajectory in total assets is observed, increasing from 6,467,257 thousand US dollars in March 2022 to 9,432,683 thousand US dollars by September 2026. A period of consistent expansion occurred through December 31, 2024, when assets reached 9,204,374 thousand US dollars. This was followed by a phase of moderate volatility between March 2025 and March 2026, during which assets fluctuated between a low of 8,803,219 thousand US dollars and a high of 9,281,848 thousand US dollars, before returning to growth in the final reported quarters.
- Solvency Ratio Assessment
- The Debt to Assets ratio cannot be analyzed as the corresponding values for total debt are missing for all twenty reported quarters. Consequently, the level of financial leverage and the extent to which assets are financed by debt remain undetermined for the specified timeframe.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The solvency profile over the observed period reveals a fluctuating relationship between total debt and asset growth, characterized by an initial improvement in the leverage ratio followed by a steady increase in debt dependency.
- Total Debt Evolution
- A consistent upward trajectory in total debt, including operating lease liabilities, is observed. Obligations rose from 3.55 billion USD in March 2022 to 5.60 billion USD by September 2026. This represents a steady accumulation of liabilities throughout the entire period.
- Asset Growth and Volatility
- Total assets grew from 6.47 billion USD in March 2022 to a peak of approximately 9.28 billion USD in June 2025. A period of contraction and volatility occurred between December 2024 and March 2026, where assets dipped to 8.80 billion USD before recovering to 9.43 billion USD by the end of the period.
- Debt to Assets Ratio Trends
- The leverage ratio experienced two distinct phases. From March 2022 to June 2024, the ratio declined from 0.55 to a period low of 0.48, indicating that asset expansion outpaced the growth of liabilities. However, starting in September 2024, the trend reversed; the ratio climbed steadily, peaking at 0.61 in June 2026 and ending at 0.59 in September 2026.
The data indicates that while the entity successfully reduced its relative leverage for the first half of the analyzed timeframe, the latter half was marked by a higher reliance on debt relative to its asset base, ending the period at a solvency level higher than the initial 2022 baseline.

The financial position exhibits two distinct phases regarding capital structure and asset management between March 2022 and September 2026. The initial period is characterized by a steady expansion of the asset base accompanied by a reduction in financial leverage, while the subsequent period shows a marked increase in leverage driven primarily by a contraction in shareholders' equity.
- Asset Growth Trends
- Total assets demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory from March 2022, increasing from 6.47 billion to a peak of approximately 9.20 billion by December 2024. Despite minor fluctuations throughout 2025, the asset base reached its highest point of 9.43 billion by September 2026. This sustained growth indicates a long-term expansion of the organization's resource base.
- Equity Fluctuations
- Shareholders' equity grew steadily from 2.13 billion in March 2022 to a peak of 3.71 billion in June 2024. However, a significant reversal occurred following this peak, with equity declining to 2.20 billion by June 2026. A partial recovery was observed in the final reported quarter, with equity rising to 2.46 billion by September 2026.
- Financial Leverage Analysis
- The financial leverage ratio initially trended downward, moving from 3.03 in March 2022 to a minimum of 2.40 in June 2024, reflecting a period of deleveraging where equity growth outpaced asset growth. Following June 2024, the trend reversed sharply, with the ratio climbing to a peak of 4.03 by June 2026. This increase indicates a heightened reliance on debt or other liabilities relative to equity, primarily caused by the substantial reduction in shareholders' equity while total assets remained elevated. The ratio concluded the period at 3.84 in September 2026, suggesting a slight stabilization in the capital structure.
