The balance sheet structure exhibits a significant trend toward deleveraging and the stabilization of stockholders' equity over the period from 2017 to 2021.

Long-Term Liability and Debt Reduction
A consistent downward trend is observed in total liabilities, which decreased from 113.65% of total liabilities and stockholders' equity in 2017 to 97.07% in 2021. This decline is primarily attributed to the reduction of long-term debt due after one year, which dropped from 89.79% to 67.68% over the five-year period. Noncurrent liabilities overall saw a corresponding decrease from 96.82% to 78.18%.
Equity Position and Retained Earnings Recovery
The organization transitioned from a significant equity deficit toward a positive equity position. Total stockholders' equity improved from -13.65% in 2017 to 2.93% by 2021. This recovery is largely driven by the improvement in retained earnings, which moved from a deficit of -17.85% in 2017 to a positive 1.64% in 2020, before returning to a slight deficit of -1.05% in 2021. Noncontrolling interests remained stable, fluctuating minimally between 4.77% and 5.18%.
Current Liability Trends
Current liabilities remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 16.83% and 19.31%. Within this segment, accounts payable showed a gradual increase from 7.12% in 2017 to 8.10% in 2021. Other accrued expenses remained consistent, generally ranging between 5.42% and 6.82%.
Operating Lease Obligations
Starting in 2019, right-of-use operating lease obligations appear on the balance sheet, representing a structural accounting change. These obligations accounted for approximately 0.77% to 0.80% of current liabilities and 3.33% to 3.52% of noncurrent liabilities from 2019 through 2021.
