It normally also provides information about the future earnings capacity of a company assets as well as an indication of cash flows that may come from receivables and inventories.
Liabilities represents obligations of a company arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow of economic benefits from the entity.

- Accounts payable
- Accounts payable fluctuated significantly over the periods, showing an initial increase from US$20.4 million at the end of 2018 to a peak of US$32.5 million by December 2019. Following this peak, values declined and then exhibited moderate volatility, ending with an upward trend, reaching approximately US$29.3 million by June 2025.
- Accrued compensation and employee benefits
- This item displayed a pattern of strong volatility with sharp increases and decreases. Starting at US$55.4 million in December 2018, it peaked multiple times throughout the years, with significant spikes near $118 million in late 2020 and early 2021, before tapering off to around US$95.9 million by June 2025. The data suggests cyclical fluctuations likely related to payroll cycles or employee-related accrual adjustments.
- Other accrued liabilities
- Other accrued liabilities increased steadily until reaching a high of around US$79 million in late 2021, followed by a gradual decline down to approximately US$55.9 million in June 2025, indicating reduced other accrued obligations or improved liability management during the recent periods.
- Deferred revenue
- Deferred revenue remained relatively stable with moderate growth, starting at about US$103.5 million at the end of 2018. After experiencing some fluctuations, it consistently increased towards the end of the timeframe, closing near US$171.7 million by June 2025. This increase suggests strengthening in advance payments or subscriptions.
- Current maturities on debt
- Current maturities on debt exhibited significant volatility, with an initial high of US$228 million at the end of 2018, dropping to as low as US$15 million multiple times in 2023-2024, but then markedly increasing to US$399.3 million by June 2025. This indicates considerable variability in short-term debt repayments or refinancing activities.
- Liabilities related to assets held for sale
- This category appeared only briefly at US$23.9 million in the March 2021 period, then disappeared from subsequent periods, implying a short-lived or completed divestiture process.
- Current liabilities
- Current liabilities were volatile but generally trended upwards until early 2021, where they peaked around US$559 million. Subsequently, they decreased significantly, bottoming near US$315 million in early 2023, before rising again to around US$770.6 million by June 2025, indicating fluctuating short-term obligation levels possibly influenced by working capital management or refinancing.
- Long-term debt, excluding current maturities
- Long-term debt showed a consistent upward trend from US$604 million in late 2018 to a peak exceeding US$2.5 billion by March 2025, then declining slightly to around US$2.38 billion at June 2025. This reflects substantial borrowing growth over multiple years, possibly related to expansion or restructuring financing.
- Non-current operating lease liabilities
- Non-current operating lease liabilities appeared from the 2019 period onward, showing a steady decline from approximately US$80.4 million to a low near US$11.9 million in early 2023, then fluctuating modestly around US$20 million towards mid-2025, suggesting a reduction in lease obligations possibly due to lease expirations or buyouts.
- Other liabilities
- Other liabilities generally increased over the timeline, from about US$40.2 million to a peak exceeding US$87.5 million by June 2025, indicating growing miscellaneous obligations or accruals.
- Non-current liabilities
- Non-current liabilities expanded significantly from approximately US$644 million in late 2018 to over US$2.61 billion by March 2025, followed by a slight decrease to just under US$2.49 billion by mid-2025. This increase largely correlates with the rise in long-term debt, indicating an accumulation of long-term obligations.
- Total liabilities
- Total liabilities grew steadily across the entire period, from roughly US$1.08 billion to an all-time high near US$3.26 billion by June 2025. This growth mirrors the increases in both current and non-current liabilities, indicative of heightened leverage or increased operational scale.
- Common stock
- Common stock remained essentially stable with minor decreases from US$0.29 million to about US$0.24 million, suggesting no major changes in share issuance or stock splits.
- Additional paid-in capital
- Additional paid-in capital showed consistent periodic growth with minor fluctuations, rising from about US$1.18 billion to over US$1.29 billion, implying incremental equity financing or stock-based compensation recognition over time.
- Treasury stock
- Treasury stock cost increased substantially, indicating ongoing repurchases. Starting at around negative US$2.67 billion, it grew steadily to nearly negative US$7 billion by June 2025, reflecting significant buyback activity, which could impact equity structure and shareholder returns.
- Retained earnings
- Retained earnings steadily climbed from US$1.8 billion to approximately US$4.4 billion, suggesting consistent profitability and reinvestment of earnings throughout the period.
- Accumulated other comprehensive loss
- This item remained negative throughout, with values fluctuating between about negative US$76.7 million and negative US$139.7 million, indicating persistent unrealized losses or valuation adjustments impacting equity.
- Stockholders’ equity (deficit)
- Stockholders' equity showed a deteriorating trend, transitioning from a positive US$228 million in late 2018 to a negative US$1.39 billion by June 2025. This shift reflects the impact of growing liabilities and treasury stock purchases exceeding equity gains, signaling increased financial strain or capital structure pressures.
- Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity (deficit)
- The sum of liabilities and equity increased from approximately US$1.31 billion to around US$1.86 billion by mid-2025. Despite the negative equity trend, overall financing—both debt and equity—showed expansion, consistent with growth in the balance sheet size.
