The asset structure exhibits a gradual transition from a more liquid position toward a higher concentration of noncurrent assets over the observed period. Total current assets, which began at 47.66% of total assets in November 2011, peaked at 53.51% in November 2012 before trending downward to 44.32% by February 2018. Conversely, noncurrent assets increased from 52.34% to 55.68% during the same timeframe, with a peak of 59.45% in August 2017.

Liquidity and Cash Management
Cash and cash equivalents demonstrate significant volatility. After maintaining levels between 13% and 20% from late 2011 through 2013, a notable decline occurred, with levels dropping as low as 5.30% in May 2015 and 5.41% in February 2016. Short-term investments remained a negligible component of the asset base, generally staying below 1.5% and trending toward near-zero levels by 2017.
Working Capital Patterns
Trade receivables exhibit a pronounced seasonal pattern, consistently peaking in the second quarter of each year. For instance, receivables rose to 18.65% in May 2012, 18.17% in May 2014, 17.96% in May 2015, and 17.98% in May 2017. Inventory levels show a steady upward trajectory, increasing from 15.36% in November 2011 to 17.70% by February 2018, suggesting a larger proportion of capital tied up in stock.
Fixed Asset Investment
There is a clear expansion in physical infrastructure. Gross property, plant, and equipment increased from 41.70% to 56.00% of total assets. While accumulated depreciation also rose from -20.99% to -29.07%, the net property, plant, and equipment grew from 20.71% to 26.93%, indicating that new capital expenditures outpaced the rate of depreciation.
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Goodwill remained a substantial and relatively stable component of the balance sheet, fluctuating between 15.29% and 20.57%, and ending at 18.07%. In contrast, other net intangible assets experienced a gradual decline, moving from 6.37% in November 2011 to 4.31% by February 2018.
Other Noncurrent Trends
Noncurrent deferred tax assets showed a consistent long-term decline, falling from 4.02% at the start of the period to 2.18% by the end. Long-term receivables also contracted significantly, dropping from 1.98% to 0.26%, suggesting a shift in how long-term credit or receivables are managed.
