1 US$ in millions
- Current Assets
-
Current assets demonstrated a consistent upward trend over the analyzed period, increasing from US$4,206 million at the end of 2005 to approximately US$29,986 million by the end of 2023. This growth indicates an expanding capacity of the company to convert resources into cash or equivalents within a year, signaling improved operational scale and liquidity potential.
The progression shows steady increments each year, with some acceleration visible particularly after 2014, reflecting likely growth in receivables, inventory, or short-term investments. This sustained increase suggests active asset management to support business activities or expansion strategies.
- Current Liabilities
-
Current liabilities also increased substantially, from US$3,220 million at the end of 2005 to about US$18,872 million by the end of 2023. This rise indicates a growing short-term financial obligation, which may relate to increased payables, short-term debt, or other current financial commitments necessary to support expanded operations.
The pace of growth in current liabilities appears generally consistent but with notable increases in certain years, suggesting periods of higher operational demands or financing activities. The company’s management may have taken on additional short-term obligations to fund business development or working capital needs.
- Current Ratio
-
The current ratio, measuring the ability to cover current liabilities with current assets, showed values consistently above 1, ranging from 1.31 in 2005 to a peak of around 2.07 in 2016, followed by a gradual decline to near 1.59 by 2023. This indicates that at all times, current assets exceeded current liabilities, reflecting a generally sound liquidity position.
The peak in 2016 signifies a period of particularly strong liquidity, while the subsequent gradual decline suggests that current liabilities grew faster than current assets in recent years, though not to a level indicating imminent liquidity risk. The ratio staying above 1.5 in the latest years signals moderate liquidity cushion, but the downward trend warrants continued monitoring of short-term financial flexibility.
