- Current maturities of long-term debt
- The proportion of current maturities of long-term debt to total liabilities and equity exhibited fluctuations, initially decreasing significantly from 3.03% in September 2020 to 0.25% in December 2021. This was followed by a general increase, reaching 1.83% by March 2025, indicating a varying short-term debt repayment profile over the periods.
- Preferred stock redemption payable
- This liability item appeared sporadically, with values only reported in December 2022 and March 2023 (0.99% and 0.43%, respectively), suggesting occasional liabilities related to preferred stock redemption in this timeframe.
