- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- Cash levels exhibited volatility during the period analyzed. From a base of 2,577 million USD in early 2020, cash surged to 8,511 million USD in early 2021 before declining to 2,229 million USD by early 2023. A recovery is noted thereafter with cash reaching 4,762 million USD by early 2025, suggesting fluctuations possibly linked to operational cash flows or financing activities.
- Inventory
- Inventory values generally increased over the years, rising from 8,992 million USD in 2020 to a peak of 13,902 million USD in 2022. Thereafter, a slight decline occurred through early 2024, followed by a moderate increase to 12,740 million USD by 2025. This pattern suggests efforts to manage stock levels in response to seasonal or market demand variations.
- Accounts and Other Receivables
- Receivables showed a steady increase from 498 million USD in 2020 to 1,169 million USD in early 2023, then decreased to 891 million USD by early 2024 before rising again to 998 million USD in 2025. This pattern may reflect changes in sales on credit terms and collection efficiency.
- Vendor Income Receivable
- This item remained relatively stable, fluctuating narrowly between 464 million USD and 543 million USD, implying consistent amounts due from vendors over the period with no significant volatility.

This trend reflects the combined effect of cash, inventory, receivables, and other current asset fluctuations.
- Property and Equipment, Net
- There was a consistent increase in property and equipment net values, rising from 26,283 million USD in 2020 to a plateau around 33,000 million USD between 2024 and 2025, indicating ongoing capital investments with stabilization in the latest periods.
- Operating Lease Assets
- Operating lease assets demonstrated a continuous increase from 2,236 million USD in 2020 to 3,763 million USD in 2025, reflecting possibly expanding lease commitments or reclassifications in accounting standards.
