Total Debt Evolution
The total carrying amount of debt remained relatively stable between 2018 and 2019, moving from US$ 3,544 million to US$ 3,412 million. A substantial increase to US$ 6,136 million was recorded in 2020. Despite minor reductions in 2021 and 2022, total obligations surged to a period peak of US$ 8,114 million by June 30, 2023.
Long-Term Debt Dynamics
Long-term debt, excluding current maturities, serves as the primary driver of the total debt load. This figure grew from US$ 3,361 million in 2018 to US$ 7,117 million in 2023. The most pronounced growth occurred between 2019 and 2021, as the amount rose from US$ 2,896 million to US$ 5,537 million, suggesting an increased reliance on long-term financing instruments.
Current Debt Volatility
Current debt exhibited high volatility throughout the observed window. A peak of US$ 1,222 million was reached in 2020, which was followed by a sharp decline to US$ 32 million in 2021. This volatility indicates fluctuating short-term liquidity requirements or the strategic refinancing of short-term obligations into long-term debt, ending with a significant rise to US$ 997 million in 2023.
