Current Liabilities
The proportion of current liabilities relative to total liabilities and equity has shown a consistent upward trend from 19.2% in 2019 to 24.17% in 2023. Notably, specific components such as accrued employee compensation and benefits increased slightly, from 3.7% to 3.84%, and accounts payable rose significantly from 2.03% to 2.97%. The current portion of deferred revenues also expanded from 2.22% to 3.26%, while the current liability related to the guest loyalty program climbed steadily from 5.34% to 7.8%. These increases collectively indicate a growing short-term obligation profile.
Long-Term Liabilities
Long-term liabilities remain a dominant part of the capital structure, initially at 83.96% in 2019, peaking at 94.36% in 2020, then fluctuating but ending at a still elevated 91.07% in 2023. Long-term debt excluding current maturities showed a rise from 53.19% to 59.46%, marking a significant reliance on debt financing. Conversely, operating lease liabilities, both current and non-current, demonstrate a gradual decline as a proportion of total liabilities and equity. The liability for the guest loyalty program, after an initial jump in 2020, exhibits some volatility but ultimately rises from 7.09% to 9.93%.
Deferred and Tax-Related Liabilities
Deferred revenues increased steadily from 5.53% to 7.35%, suggesting a growing amount of prepaid services or customer deposits. Deferred income tax liabilities initially fell from 5.32% to 2.6%, indicating reduced tax obligations or adjustments. Other long-term tax liabilities doubled from 2.47% to 4.19%, implying changes in tax exposure or deferred tax accounting.
Equity and Deficit
The stockholders’ deficit deepened over the period, moving from -3.22% in 2019 to -15.32% in 2023, highlighting an increasing negative equity position. Treasury stock at cost has significantly increased in magnitude from -27.87% to -54.5%, showing substantial share repurchases or cancellations. Accumulated deficit ratios improved, moving from -39.88% to -27.32%, indicating some recovery in retained earnings or reduced losses. Additional paid-in capital remained relatively stable, ending slightly higher at 71.22%, which supports the capital base. Accumulated other comprehensive loss showed slight improvement but remained negative, moving from -5.62% to -4.75%.
Total Liabilities and Equity
Total liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities and equity increased from 103.16% in 2019 to 115.24% in 2023, suggesting growing leverage and liabilities exceeding equity values. Overall, the company exhibits a capital structure heavily weighted toward liabilities, especially long-term debt, with a deepening equity deficit and increasing treasury stock, reflecting strategic financing decisions and potentially higher financial risk.
