- Accounts Payable
- Accounts payable as a percentage of total liabilities and equity declined markedly from the beginning of 2019 (around 11%) reaching a low near 7% in mid-2020. Following this, it increased sharply peaking at nearly 23% in mid-2022 before gradually retreating to about 16% by mid-2024.
- Payroll and Benefits Payable
- Payroll and benefits payable consistently remained a small portion of total liabilities and equity, fluctuating narrowly around 1%, with slight peaks observed in early 2024 near 1.4%. This indicates stable management of payroll liabilities over the period.
- Accrued Taxes
- Accrued taxes trended generally below 2%, except for a significant spike to over 5% around mid-2021, then reverting back to roughly 1.5%-2% levels thereafter, reflecting a one-time or atypical tax accrual event at that time.
- Debt Due Within One Year
- Short-term debt increased from under 1% early in 2019 to peaks above 3% by late 2020, declined sharply to near zero in mid-2021, then rose notably again, reaching approximately 5-6% by late 2024, indicating variable short-term debt management and refinancing activities.
- Current Operating Lease Liabilities
- Current operating lease liabilities remained stable and low, fluctuating slightly between 0.4% and 0.7%, demonstrating consistent lease expense recognition relative to total capitalization.
- Other Current Liabilities
- This category showed modest increases over time, rising from below 1% to over 2.5% at times, with some volatility, indicating either fluctuating accruals or variability in miscellaneous current obligations.
- Current Liabilities (Aggregate)
- Overall current liabilities showed a moderately increasing trend from around 15-16% during 2019 to a high near 29% in mid-2022, with subsequent declines but remaining elevated near 26-28% into 2024, reflecting an increasing reliance on short-term obligations or accrued expenses.
- Long-Term Debt Due After One Year
- Long-term debt generally represented a significant portion of total liabilities, initially near 29%, rising above 34% during 2020 before gradually declining again to about 28-30% from 2022 onward, suggesting debt structure adjustments and possible repayments.
- Deferred Income Taxes
- Deferred income taxes remained stable between 5% and 7.3% throughout the periods, with slight fluctuations but no major trend, indicating steady recognition and management of deferred tax liabilities.
- Defined Benefit Postretirement Obligations
- The portion of defined benefit postretirement plan obligations remained modest, moving slightly between about 1% and 2.5%, showing gradual reduction after 2019 but with minor increases towards 2024.
- Long-Term Operating Lease Liabilities
- This liability steadily decreased from 2.2% in early 2019 to under 1% by 2024, reflecting reduced reliance or reclassification of lease arrangements over the period.
- Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities
- Deferred credits and other liabilities showed a slight upward trend from approximately 1.2% to 1.7%, indicating moderate growth in miscellaneous deferred or noncurrent obligations.
- Noncurrent Liabilities
- Noncurrent liabilities increased significantly from about 39% in early 2019 to nearly 47% in 2020, then declined gradually to some 39-41% by 2024, indicative of a shift in the maturity profile of liabilities or settlement of some long-term obligations.
- Total Liabilities
- Total liabilities as a percentage of the funding base rose from roughly 54-56% in 2019 to peaks near 65-67% by 2024, demonstrating an increasing leverage or reliance on debt and liabilities over equity financing in recent years.
- Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
- Redeemable noncontrolling interest stayed consistently small, just above 1% until about 2023 when it contracted sharply to nearly zero, suggesting changes in ownership interests or buyouts.
- Common Stock and Treasury Stock
- The common stock accounted for a negligible percentage, steady at 0.01%. Meanwhile, treasury stock, reflected as a negative percentage, grew substantially in magnitude from about -15% to over -64%, implying significant stock repurchases and treasury stock accumulation over the period.
- Additional Paid-in Capital
- Additional paid-in capital remained relatively stable around 35-40%, with slight increases towards 42% near late 2024, indicating contributions or adjustments from equity issuance or accounting reclassifications.
- Retained Earnings
- Retained earnings showed a notable upward trajectory from low single digits in early 2020 to above 46% by late 2024, representing substantial earnings retention and accumulation of profits over this interval.
- Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
- This metric remained slightly negative throughout, fluctuating between small losses of approximately -0.2% to nearly zero without material swings, reflecting stable unrealized gains or losses in other comprehensive components.
- Total Stockholders’ Equity
- Overall equity declined sharply from above 44% early in 2019 to a low near 31% by 2024, with fluctuations in between. This decrease reflects elevated liabilities and treasury stock increases outpacing equity growth, despite the rising retained earnings.
- Noncontrolling Interests
- Noncontrolling interests decreased gradually from roughly 9% to about 6-8% over the period, indicating slight declines in minority ownership stakes relative to the total funding structure.
- Total Equity (Including Noncontrolling)
- Total equity including noncontrolling interests declined from about 44.4% to near 32% by the end of the period, mirroring the trends in controlling and noncontrolling equity components and underscoring increased leverage.
