Balance Sheet: Assets
Quarterly Data
The balance sheet provides creditors, investors, and analysts with information on company resources (assets) and its sources of capital (its equity and liabilities). It normally also provides information about the future earnings capacity of a company assets as well as an indication of cash flows that may come from receivables and inventories.
Assets are resources controlled by the company as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity.

Total assets exhibit a gradual upward trajectory over the analyzed period, increasing from 114,058 million US dollars in September 2019 to 128,378 million US dollars by March 2026. This growth is characterized by periodic fluctuations, with a notable peak in current assets during 2020 and a steady expansion of the noncurrent asset base in the latter half of the timeframe.
- Liquidity and Current Asset Management
- Cash and cash equivalents demonstrate significant volatility, peaking at 16,181 million US dollars in June 2020 before reaching a trough of 6,710 million US dollars in September 2022. A subsequent recovery trend is observed, with balances returning to 12,306 million US dollars by March 2026. Accounts receivable have remained relatively stable, albeit with a modest long-term increase from approximately 5,143 million US dollars to 6,322 million US dollars.
- Inventories show a consistent long-term expansion, rising from 5,465 million US dollars in September 2019 to 7,853 million US dollars by March 2026. This growth is primarily driven by an increase in finished goods, which climbed from 3,415 million US dollars to 4,819 million US dollars, suggesting an expansion in production capacity or a strategic increase in safety stock levels.
- Noncurrent Asset Composition
- Property, plant and equipment, net, shifted from 20,901 million US dollars in September 2019 to 24,574 million US dollars by March 2026, reflecting steady capital investment in physical infrastructure. Other noncurrent assets also experienced a marked increase, growing from 7,625 million US dollars to 12,927 million US dollars over the same period.
- Intangible assets, including goodwill and trademarks, constitute a substantial portion of the total asset base. Goodwill remained relatively stagnant, oscillating around the 40,000 million US dollar mark. Conversely, trademarks and other intangible assets, net, exhibited a slight downward trend, decreasing from 24,002 million US dollars in September 2019 to 21,531 million US dollars by March 2026, likely due to scheduled amortization.
The overall asset structure reveals a heavy reliance on noncurrent assets, which consistently represent the majority of the balance sheet. The transition from 2019 to 2026 indicates a shift toward higher inventory levels and increased investment in property and equipment, while maintaining a stable valuation of brand-related intangible assets.
