The financial data reveals several noteworthy trends in the company's asset base over the reported quarterly periods.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
These balances exhibit considerable fluctuations, ranging from a high near 37.2 billion US dollars in May 2020 to a low around 6.8 billion in November 2022. While the values generally hover between 8 and 18 billion in recent quarters, the cash position displayed periodic volatility rather than a steady trend, with occasional spikes followed by declines.
Marketable Securities
The marketable securities experienced a sharp rise around mid-2020, peaking over 16 billion in May 2021. This was followed by a steep decline to below 1 billion by early 2022, after which the amounts settled at a relatively low and stable level under 500 million throughout the latest periods.
Trade Receivables
Trade receivables generally show an upward trajectory, increasing from about 3.8 billion in late 2019 to approximately 8.5 billion by early 2025. This consistent rise in net trade receivables suggests growing sales or extended credit terms over time.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
This category maintains a stable range between roughly 2.8 billion and 4.8 billion, with a mild upward trend visible starting around 2022. The fluctuations are moderate, indicating consistent operational activity in prepaid and other current asset components.
Current Assets
Current assets display marked volatility rather than a consistent trend. Notably, there is a significant increase reaching over 55 billion in May 2020 and May 2021, followed by sharp declines in subsequent quarters to lows near 17.5 billion. This fluctuation mirrors the irregular behavior of cash and marketable securities components, which are major constituents of current assets.
Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E), Net
PP&E shows a clear upward trend, increasing steadily from approximately 6.3 billion in 2019 to over 43.5 billion by early 2025. This indicates ongoing investment in long-term physical assets, with accelerated growth especially evident after late 2021.
Intangible Assets, Net
Intangible assets recorded a progressive decline from about 4.9 billion in 2019 to below 1.5 billion by mid-2022. However, a significant jump occurs after this period, with values exceeding 12 billion as of August 2022, before gradually tapering down again to about 4.6 billion by early 2025. This pattern may reflect a reclassification or a one-time large acquisition followed by amortization or impairment.
Goodwill, Net
Goodwill values remain relatively stable around 43.8 billion until mid-2022. A considerable increase follows, reaching over 62 billion in August 2022 and stabilizing slightly above this level thereafter. This leap strongly suggests a substantial acquisition or merger, with the goodwill asset base reflecting the premium paid above identifiable net assets.
Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets show gradual growth from about 2.7 billion in 2019 to a peak near 13.7 billion in early 2021, followed by a decline to roughly 11.8 billion by mid-2025. This pattern indicates changing tax positions and timing differences evolving through the periods.
Other Non-Current Assets
This category experiences continuous growth throughout the timeline, increasing from about 6.3 billion to over 21.5 billion by early 2025. The steady increase suggests accumulation of long-term assets not classified elsewhere, possibly including investments, deferred charges, or equity interests.
Non-Current Assets
Non-current assets overall are stable around 63-64 billion until early 2021, after which there is a marked rise due to increases in PP&E, intangible assets, goodwill, and other components. The non-current assets rise sharply from approximately 63.3 billion to over 143.7 billion by early 2025, highlighting significant capital expenditure and acquisitions.
Total Assets
Total assets echo the fluctuations seen in current and non-current assets, starting near 106 billion in 2019, dropping close to 96 billion in early 2020, then surging beyond 115 billion mid-2020, reaching an initial high near 131 billion in mid-2021. A decline occurs afterward, followed by strong growth from 130 billion in 2022 to over 168 billion by the first quarter of 2025, reflecting the combined effects of operational changes, asset acquisitions, and investment activities.

In summary, the company's asset profile is characterized by significant and volatile changes in cash and marketable securities, steady growth in trade receivables and long-term physical assets, substantial expansions in intangible assets and goodwill likely linked to acquisitions, and an overall increase in total asset base. The data suggests active asset management, including investment in long-term assets and strategic transactions impacting goodwill and intangible asset values.
