The solvency profile exhibits a high degree of financial stability characterized by minimal reliance on external debt and an exceptional capacity to meet long-term obligations. While a notable shift occurred in the reporting of liabilities during the 2020 fiscal year, the overall trajectory indicates a conservative capital structure and strengthening creditworthiness over the six-year period.

Debt-to-Equity and Debt-to-Capital Ratios
A consistent pattern of low leverage is observed. Traditional debt-to-equity and debt-to-capital ratios remained stagnant at 0.03 through 2020. However, when operating lease liabilities are included, a significant spike is noted in March 2020, where the debt-to-equity ratio rose to 0.26 and the debt-to-capital ratio reached 0.21. Following this peak, these ratios trended downward, stabilizing at 0.14 for debt-to-equity and 0.12 for debt-to-capital by March 2023, suggesting a controlled expansion of lease-based obligations relative to equity and total capital.
Debt-to-Assets and Financial Leverage
The debt-to-assets ratio mirrors the trend seen in equity ratios, showing a sharp increase to 0.17 in 2020 when including lease liabilities, before settling at 0.10 from 2021 through 2023. Financial leverage remained relatively stable, fluctuating between a low of 1.34 in 2018 and a peak of 1.55 in 2020, eventually moderating to 1.45 by 2023. This indicates a balanced approach to asset financing with minimal risk of insolvency.
Coverage Ratios
The most pronounced improvement is evident in the coverage ratios. Interest coverage grew exponentially from 49.13 in 2018 to a peak of 272.07 in 2022, ending at 194.52 in 2023. Similarly, the fixed charge coverage ratio demonstrates a consistent upward trend, rising from 3.76 in 2018 to 12.81 in 2023. These figures reflect a substantial increase in the margin of safety for servicing both interest and fixed contractual obligations, driven by strong operational performance.

This was followed by a reduction to 223 million in 2021 and a relative stabilization, ending at 246.5 million by March 31, 2023.
Stockholders' Equity Performance
A consistent and strong upward trend is observed in stockholders' equity. Value increased steadily from 940.8 million in 2018 to 1.77 billion in 2023. This continuous growth indicates a robust internal accumulation of capital, providing a significant buffer against total liabilities.
Debt to Equity Ratio Analysis
The debt-to-equity ratio was minimal at 0.03 during the first two years of the period. A peak of 0.26 was recorded in 2020, reflecting the sudden increase in total debt. Subsequently, the ratio declined and stabilized at 0.14 by 2022 and 2023, demonstrating a disciplined approach to leverage and a strong reliance on equity financing.

A gradual decline in total debt is observed between March 31, 2018, and March 31, 2020, with balances decreasing from US$ 32,082 thousand to US$ 30,901 thousand. This downward trajectory suggests a consistent reduction in outstanding liabilities during this period.
Asset Expansion
Total assets demonstrate significant and continuous growth over the reported six-year period. From March 31, 2018, to March 31, 2023, assets increased from US$ 1,264,379 thousand to US$ 2,556,203 thousand, indicating a robust expansion of the resource base.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.


An analysis of the solvency position indicates a period of consistent asset expansion coupled with a structural shift in debt obligations between 2018 and 2023.

Total Asset Growth
Total assets exhibited a continuous upward trajectory, increasing from US$ 1.26 billion in 2018 to US$ 2.56 billion by 2023. This represents a steady growth pattern, effectively doubling the asset base over the six-year period.
Debt Obligation Trends
Total debt, including operating lease liabilities, remained minimal during 2018 and 2019. A significant escalation occurred in 2020, where debt peaked at US$ 295.7 million. Subsequently, these obligations moderated and stabilized, fluctuating between US$ 222 million and US$ 246 million from 2021 through 2023.
Debt to Assets Ratio Interpretation
The solvency ratio mirrors the volatility in debt levels, shifting from a negligible 0.02 to 0.03 range in 2018 and 2019 to a peak of 0.17 in 2020. From 2021 onward, the ratio has remained remarkably stable at 0.10, suggesting a controlled leverage strategy where debt finances only 10% of total assets.

The financial profile demonstrates a conservative approach to leverage. Despite the sharp increase in debt observed in 2020, the simultaneous growth in assets has allowed the company to maintain a strong solvency position with a low and stable debt-to-asset dependency in recent years.

The financial position from 2018 to 2023 is characterized by a sustained expansion of the balance sheet, with both total assets and stockholders' equity exhibiting consistent upward trajectories. Total assets grew from US$ 1,264,379 thousand in 2018 to US$ 2,556,203 thousand by 2023, representing a significant increase in the company's resource base. This growth was supported by a concurrent increase in stockholders' equity, which rose from US$ 940,779 thousand to US$ 1,765,733 thousand, suggesting a robust accumulation of equity to fund operational expansion.

Asset and Equity Expansion
A continuous year-over-year increase is observed in total assets throughout the analyzed period. Stockholders' equity mirrored this growth pattern, expanding steadily each year, which indicates a strong internal capacity to support asset growth without an over-reliance on external liabilities.
Financial Leverage Volatility
The financial leverage ratio experienced a period of increase between 2018 and 2020, rising from 1.34 to a peak of 1.55. This indicates a temporary increase in the proportion of debt relative to equity during that window.
Leverage Stabilization and Reduction
Following the 2020 peak, a downward trend in financial leverage is observed. The ratio declined to 1.50 in 2021 and further to 1.45 by March 31, 2023. This reduction in the leverage ratio, occurring alongside a continuing increase in total assets, suggests a strategic move toward a more conservative capital structure and improved solvency.

The analysis of solvency ratios indicates a substantial strengthening of the financial position between 2018 and 2023. A consistent increase in operating profitability, coupled with a general reduction in interest obligations relative to earnings, has resulted in an exceptionally high capacity to service debt.

Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT)
A sustained upward trajectory in EBIT is observed, growing from US$ 225,281 thousand in 2018 to US$ 669,524 thousand in 2023. This steady expansion of operating income provides a robust cushion for all fixed financial obligations and reflects strong operational growth over the six-year period.
Interest Expense
Interest expenses remained relatively stable from 2018 through 2021, reaching a peak of US$ 6,028 thousand. A significant contraction occurred in 2022, with expenses dropping to US$ 2,083 thousand, followed by a moderate increase to US$ 3,442 thousand in 2023. This fluctuation suggests a potential restructuring of debt or a reduction in total borrowings during the 2022 fiscal year.
Interest Coverage Ratio
The interest coverage ratio exhibited an aggressive upward trend, rising from 49.13 in 2018 to a peak of 272.07 in 2022. Although the ratio moderated to 194.52 in 2023, it remains vastly superior to the baseline figures recorded at the start of the period. These levels indicate a negligible risk of insolvency and an extremely high margin of safety regarding the company's ability to meet its interest payments.

The solvency profile of the organization demonstrates a consistent and significant strengthening of its ability to meet fixed obligations over the period from 2018 to 2023. The overall trend is characterized by a substantial increase in earnings coupled with a general reduction in fixed costs, leading to a marked improvement in the safety margin for debt and fixed charge servicing.

Earnings Before Fixed Charges and Tax
A strong upward trajectory is observed in earnings, which grew from US$ 300.7 million in 2018 to US$ 722.5 million in 2023. Despite a marginal stagnation between 2019 and 2020, growth accelerated thereafter, representing a total increase of approximately 140% over the analyzed six-year period.
Fixed Charges
Fixed charges exhibited a general downward trend, decreasing from US$ 80.0 million in 2018 to a low of US$ 53.2 million in 2022. Although a slight increase to US$ 56.4 million occurred in 2023, the total obligations remain significantly lower than the initial 2018 levels.
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
The fixed charge coverage ratio improved monotonically each year, rising from 3.76 in 2018 to 12.81 in 2023. This progression indicates that by the final reporting period, earnings were more than twelve times the amount required to cover fixed charges, reflecting a highly robust solvency position and a substantial reduction in financial risk.
