Total assets exhibited a growth cycle followed by a significant contraction period between March 2011 and June 2016. Assets rose from 23.16 billion USD to a peak of 35.48 billion USD in March 2014, before declining to 23.78 billion USD by June 2016, returning to levels near the start of the analyzed period.

Current Asset Trends
Current assets followed a similar trajectory to total assets, peaking at 17.21 billion USD in March 2014 and falling to 9.20 billion USD by June 2016. Receivables, net, grew from 2.76 billion USD to a peak of 5.31 billion USD in March 2014, suggesting an expansion in credit sales or slower collections during the growth phase, followed by a steady decline to 2.04 billion USD. Inventories peaked earlier, in March 2013 at 6.14 billion USD, and gradually decreased to 4.29 billion USD by June 2016.
Cash and cash equivalents showed high volatility, reaching a peak of 4.09 billion USD in September 2014 before declining to 1.66 billion USD by the end of the period. Costs in excess of billings saw a substantial increase from 744 million USD in March 2011 to a peak of 1.93 billion USD in March 2015, indicating a period of high project execution that had not yet been billed, followed by a sharp contraction to 790 million USD by June 2016.
Noncurrent Asset Analysis
Noncurrent assets peaked in March 2013 at 18.56 billion USD. A significant increase in goodwill was observed between December 2012 (7.17 billion USD) and March 2013 (9.01 billion USD), indicating a major acquisition. This value remained relatively stable until December 2015, when it dropped to 6.98 billion USD, suggesting a goodwill impairment charge.
Intangibles, net, peaked at 5.40 billion USD in March 2013 and experienced a consistent downward trend thereafter, ending at 3.71 billion USD in June 2016, likely due to amortization or impairments. Property, plant and equipment, net, showed steady growth from 1.86 billion USD in March 2011 to a plateau of approximately 3.3 to 3.4 billion USD starting in 2013, remaining the most stable component of the noncurrent asset base.
Overall Asset Composition and Structural Shifts
The shift in the balance sheet reveals a transition from aggressive expansion and capital investment between 2011 and 2014 to a phase of asset reduction and impairment from 2015 to 2016. The simultaneous decline in receivables, inventories, and goodwill indicates a broader contraction in operational scale and a devaluation of acquired assets during the latter half of the period.
