The quarterly financial data reveals several notable trends in liabilities, equity, and related financial items over the examined periods.

Current Liabilities
Current liabilities have generally fluctuated with some pronounced spikes, notably reaching a peak in August 2022 at approximately US$34.8 billion, significantly higher than previous quarters. This spike is driven mainly by a sharp increase in "Notes payable and other borrowings, current," which surged from around US$3.7 billion in May 2022 to over US$16 billion in August 2022 before declining thereafter. "Accounts payable" and "Accrued compensation" displayed oscillating patterns but remained relatively stable compared to the volatility seen in borrowing. Deferred revenues and other current liabilities also exhibited some variability but without extreme swings.
Non-current Liabilities
Non-current liabilities show a generally increasing trend, with notable increments around the February 2021 through August 2022 timeframe. The "Notes payable and other borrowings, non-current" line remains the largest component, hovering mostly between US$50 billion and US$88 billion, peaking in February 2025. "Other non-current liabilities" consistently increased, rising from about US$4.1 billion in August 2019 to over US$17.5 billion by May 2025. Deferred tax liabilities display a steady decline starting from 2021, which may reflect changes in tax positions or asset bases.
Total Liabilities
Total liabilities demonstrated a similar trajectory to their components, showing a marked increase from approximately US$87 billion in August 2019 to an estimated US$147 billion by May 2025. This rise appears driven by both current and non-current obligations, with the most prominent surge occurring around August 2022, aligning with the spike in current borrowings.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders' equity experienced significant volatility with a downward trend from August 2019 through August 2021, turning negative at about -US$1.5 billion in August 2021, indicating accumulated losses. However, after this low point, equity began a steady recovery, rising to approximately US$20.5 billion by May 2025. This recovery corresponds with decreasing accumulated deficits, which improved from roughly -US$25.7 billion in August 2021 to about -US$15.5 billion by May 2025. The common stock and additional paid-in capital increased moderately over the period, supporting the recovery in equity.
Accumulated Deficit and Other Comprehensive Loss
The accumulated deficit generally widened until mid-2021, reflecting consistent net losses or distributions exceeding earnings, but thereafter it showed improvement, indicating some recovery in net income or other favorable adjustments. The accumulated other comprehensive loss remained negative throughout the period, fluctuating but showing no clear trend toward elimination of losses.
Other Observations
Income taxes payable showed slight decreases over time but remained relatively stable around US$9 billion to US$13.5 billion. The fluctuations in current borrowings and total liabilities around mid-2022 could indicate refinancing activities or liquidity management responses to market dynamics.

In summary, the data depict a company facing increasing debt burdens, particularly current borrowings peaking sharply in mid-2022, followed by partial reduction. The liability base expanded significantly over time, paralleled by an initial decline and subsequent recovery in equity, with accumulated deficits narrowing in later periods. This pattern suggests a period of financial stress or restructuring followed by improvement and strengthening of the equity position over the forecast horizon.
