- Accounts Payable
- The accounts payable figures generally increased from September 2018 through June 2021, peaking around 14,223 million USD, followed by a stabilization and slight decline afterward. The values remained mostly above 13,000 million USD afterward, showing some volatility without a strong trend.
- Accrued and Other Liabilities
- This metric showed an upward trend from 8,469 million USD in September 2018 to a peak around 11,131 million USD by December 2020. Afterward, the values fluctuated mostly between 9,800 and 11,000 million USD, indicating a relatively stable environment with mild fluctuations.
- Debt Due Within One Year
- Short-term debt displayed high volatility across the periods. It peaked significantly at 13,331 million USD in December 2021, dropped to near 7,191 million USD in June 2024, and rose again but remained below the earlier peaks. The swings suggest active management or refinancing of short-term borrowings.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities moderately increased from just under 29,220 million USD in September 2018 to a peak of approximately 38,746 million USD by September 2022. Since then, it has decreased somewhat but remained elevated relative to 2018, reflecting growing short-term obligations over time.

- Long-term debt was relatively volatile but showed a slight overall upward trend from approximately 20,779 million USD in September 2018 to a peak near 25,744 million USD in March 2025. The fluctuations suggest periods of increased borrowing or repayments but an overall increase in longer-term obligations.
- Deferred Income Taxes
- Deferred income taxes fluctuated narrowly mostly between 6,000 and 7,000 million USD throughout the entire period, showing no clear long-term trend and indicating a steady tax deferral position.
- Other Noncurrent Liabilities
- Other noncurrent liabilities showed a declining trend, starting near 9,758 million USD in September 2018 and gradually falling to about 5,458 million USD by March 2025. This suggests a reduction in other long-term obligations or settlements of these liabilities.
- Noncurrent Liabilities
- The total noncurrent liabilities peaked around mid-2020 at approximately 41,315 million USD but steadily decreased afterward to about 36,191 million USD in March 2025, reflecting some long-term debt repayments or reclassification of liabilities.

- Shareholders’ Equity Components
- Common stock remained constant throughout the period at about 4,009 million USD, reflecting no new common stock issuances or retirements. Preferred stock slightly decreased from 951 million USD to 781 million USD, pointing to potential redemptions or conversions. Additional paid-in capital demonstrated consistent growth from approximately 63,711 million USD to 68,615 million USD, indicating ongoing capital contributions or stock-based compensation programs. Retained earnings increased steadily from 99,831 million USD to approximately 128,919 million USD, highlighting sustained profitability and earnings retention over the periods. Treasury stock showed a continuous increase in negative value, rising from about -99,956 million USD to roughly -138,073 million USD, demonstrating ongoing share repurchases and stock retirements, reducing outstanding shares. Accumulated other comprehensive loss reduced its negative balance from near -15,133 million USD to around -11,307 million USD by March 2025, suggesting some recovery or favorable adjustments in other comprehensive income components.
- Total Shareholders’ Equity

This indicates resilience and growth after episodic declines, supported primarily by increased retained earnings and additional paid-in capital.
- Total Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity
- Total capitalization (liabilities plus shareholders’ equity) fluctuated between approximately 115 billion USD and 126 billion USD over the period. The peak levels occurred around late 2024 and early 2025, reflecting overall growth and expansions in company size or balance sheet structure.
