The asset composition of the company reflects a heavy concentration in noncurrent assets, which consistently represent between 78% and 82% of total assets over the analyzed period. A gradual shift is observed where the relative weight of current assets increased from 18.86% in March 2013 to 21.94% by March 2018, while noncurrent assets experienced a corresponding slight decline.

Liquidity and Current Asset Trends
Cash and equivalents exhibit significant volatility, peaking at 6.95% in June 2014 before declining to a low of 2.21% in March 2017. In contrast, receivables show a consistent and pronounced upward trend, increasing from 10.60% of total assets in March 2013 to 14.90% by March 2018. This suggests a growing proportion of the asset base is tied up in outstanding payments. Inventories remained relatively stable, generally fluctuating between 2.4% and 3.5%.
Long-term Operational Assets
There is a noticeable increase in the proportion of assets allocated to noncurrent inventories and theatrical film and television production costs, rising from 9.34% in March 2013 to 12.29% in March 2018. Conversely, property, plant, and equipment (net) show a steady downward trajectory, decreasing from 5.63% to 3.99% over the same period. This pattern indicates a strategic shift in resource allocation away from physical infrastructure toward content production.
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Goodwill constitutes the largest single component of the balance sheet, though its relative weight declined from 45.42% in March 2013 to 40.29% in March 2018. Intangible assets subject to amortization experienced a sharp contraction, falling from 3.04% to 0.79%. Intangible assets not subject to amortization remained more stable but also trended slightly downward from 11.41% to 10.16%. The combined weight of goodwill and intangibles remains dominant, though the overall proportion is slowly diminishing.
Investment and Other Assets
Investments, including available-for-sale securities, demonstrate a steady increase from 2.87% in March 2013 to 5.77% in March 2018. Other assets also grew from 3.43% to 4.78% during the period, reflecting a modest increase in miscellaneous noncurrent holdings.
