- Accounts payable
- The proportion of accounts payable relative to total liabilities and equity exhibited moderate fluctuations over the observed periods. Starting at 0.64% in early 2011, it increased gradually and peaked around 1.33% by the end of 2015. Periodic rises and falls suggest variability in short-term obligations management.
- Deferred revenue and subscriber-related liabilities
- This component showed a steady upward trend from 0.40% in March 2011 to 0.49% in March 2016, indicating a gradual growth in deferred revenue or subscriber-related obligations over the timeframe.
- Accrued programming and content expense
- Relatively stable in the earlier years, this liability gradually increased from around 1.8% to 2.13% by early 2016, suggesting escalating expenses related to programming and content accrual over the periods.
- Current maturities of long-term debt
- There was notable volatility in this category, which started at 0.57% in Q2 2011, spiked as high as 6.66% in Q2 2013, and then declined steeply to near negligible levels (0.01%) by the end of 2015 and early 2016. This indicates partial repayment or refinancing of near-term debt obligations over time.
- Other current liabilities
- Other current liabilities demonstrated a rising trend from approximately 3.28% to a peak of 4.41% by mid-2015, before slightly decreasing to around 3.86% towards the beginning of 2016, indicating fluctuating short-term operational liabilities.
- Current liabilities
- Current liabilities as a whole increased significantly from about 6.13% in early 2011 to reach a peak of 14.23% in mid-2013, followed by a decline to 7.74% by March 2016, reflecting shifts in short-term obligations and possibly refinancing or repayment activities.
- Long-term debt, excluding current maturities
- This major component accounted for the largest share of liabilities and equity, showing a slight declining trend from over 51% in 2011 to 45.2% by early 2016, indicating gradual debt reduction or changes in capital structure enhancing the equity base.
- Deferred income tax liabilities, net
- Deferred income tax liabilities increased consistently from about 21.91% in early 2011 to 26.11% in early 2016, showing a growing deferred tax burden or timing differences affecting liabilities.
- Other liabilities
- These liabilities increased moderately over time from approximately 1.03% to around 2.13%, reflecting an upward trend in miscellaneous long-term obligations.
- Noncurrent liabilities
- Noncurrent liabilities remained relatively stable around 73–75% of total liabilities and equity, with minor fluctuations throughout the period, indicating consistency in long-term liabilities as a proportion of total funding.
- Total liabilities
- Total liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities and equity gradually decreased from approximately 81% in 2011 to 81.18% by early 2016, with small fluctuations in between, suggesting a modest shift towards equity financing or asset rebalancing.
- Additional paid-in capital
- This equity component decreased from around 20.05% in early 2011 to approximately 15.25% by 2016, indicating possible capital repurchases or reduced equity infusions over time.
- Retained earnings (accumulated deficit)
- Retained earnings improved significantly from a slight deficit position (around -0.30%) in early 2011 to a positive 4.43% by early 2016, reflecting increased profitability or earnings retention over the period.
- Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net
- This component remained negative across the periods but reduced in magnitude at times, showing net losses in comprehensive income fluctuating from -0.64% to around -0.87%, with some variability suggesting changes in unrealized gains or losses.
- Total shareholders’ equity
- Overall equity increased from approximately 19.14% of total liabilities and equity in early 2011 to 18.82% in early 2016, peaking in between at 18.26% towards the end of 2015, indicating a relatively stable but slightly rising equity base in relation to liabilities.
