- Accounts payable and accrued expenses
- The balance fluctuated considerably over the periods, with a general upward trend peaking at 442,379 thousand USD around April 2022, followed by a decline to 321,743 thousand USD by April 2023. This indicates variability in short-term obligations or timing of payments.
- Deferred revenue and customer deposits

Series due in 2023 and 2024 emerged later, peaking then declining notably towards the end of the data range. Repurchase obligations appeared once in the data, indicating refinancing or debt restructuring activities in recent years.
- Current operating lease liabilities
- Current operating lease liabilities displayed a generally increasing trend, expanding from approximately 56,601 thousand USD in early periods to over 81,262 thousand USD by April 2023, suggesting greater lease commitments or lease capitalization.

- These liabilities spiked sharply in several periods, notably reaching above 190,000 thousand USD at points, but showed considerable volatility over time. The lack of a consistent trend may reflect episodic liabilities or accrual adjustments.
- Total current liabilities
- Current liabilities rose substantially from 443,921 thousand USD in April 2017 to a peak exceeding 1.36 million thousand USD in April 2022, before declining to 851,503 thousand USD by April 2023. This reflects increased short-term debt or obligations with a partial reversal in the last observed period.
- Term loans and other debt instruments
- Term loan B and B-2 appear in the latter periods with values above 1.9 million thousand USD and almost 470,000 thousand USD respectively, indicating significant long-term borrowings. Other loans such as FILO and second lien term loans are noted but less consistent, reflecting various phases of debt issuance and repayment.
- Non-current operating and finance lease liabilities
- These long-term lease liabilities increased consistently over time, with finance lease liabilities growing from around 436,228 thousand USD to above 648,792 thousand USD and operating lease liabilities rising similarly. This trend suggests expanding lease commitments recognized under evolving leasing standards.
- Other non-current obligations and deferred items
- Non-current other obligations gradually declined, indicating repayments or reclassifications. Deferred rent and lease incentives decreased over the periods, consistent with lease amortization and decreased obligations under lease agreements.

The substantial increase from approximately 1.4 million to over 3.6 million thousand USD indicates significant financing activities or long-term obligations accrued in the recent years.
- Total liabilities
- Total liabilities exhibited strong growth from around 1.3 million thousand USD in April 2017 to peaks close to 4.6 million thousand USD by 2022, followed by slight reduction. This emphasizes the company's expanded leverage and financing activities over the observed periods.

This reflects periods of losses or adjustments followed by profitable operations or accounting recoveries.
- Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)
- This component showed wide movements ranging from losses near -12,685 thousand USD to gains exceeding 3,900 thousand USD, reflecting fluctuating unrealized gains/losses or other comprehensive income impacts on equity.
- Treasury stock

- Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity
- The sum total increased notably from 1.94 million thousand USD in April 2017 to over 5.8 million thousand USD by late 2021 and into 2022, then slightly declined, indicating growth in the company's asset base funded by a mix of liabilities and equity.
- Overall insights
- The data reflects a company undergoing significant financing changes, with increasing reliance on both short-term and long-term liabilities, including complex convertible debt instruments and growing lease obligations. Equity components display volatility likely linked to operational performance and capital market transactions. The increasing trend in liabilities and equity suggests expansion or investment activity, balanced by subsequent debt repayments and equity adjustments in recent periods.
