Balance Sheet: Assets
Quarterly Data
The balance sheet provides creditors, investors, and analysts with information on company resources (assets) and its sources of capital (its equity and liabilities). It normally also provides information about the future earnings capacity of a company assets as well as an indication of cash flows that may come from receivables and inventories.
Assets are resources controlled by the company as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity.

Total assets exhibit a consistent upward trajectory, increasing from 61.79 billion USD in March 2021 to 71.21 billion USD by June 2026. This growth is primarily driven by a sustained expansion in long-term assets, which rose from 58.07 billion USD to 65.68 billion USD over the same period. The overall asset growth reflects a strategic emphasis on capital investment and long-term infrastructure expansion.
- Fixed Asset and Infrastructure Investment
- Net properties represent the largest component of the balance sheet and show an uninterrupted quarterly increase, growing from 54.06 billion USD in March 2021 to 60.20 billion USD in June 2026. This steady climb indicates continuous capital expenditure into the core physical network.
- Liquidity and Current Asset Dynamics
- Current assets fluctuate between 3.55 billion USD and 5.53 billion USD. Cash and cash equivalents demonstrate significant volatility, with periodic peaks followed by declines, ending at a high of 1.61 billion USD in June 2026. A notable shift occurred in late 2025 with the introduction of short-term investments, which reached 500 million USD by June 2026, suggesting a change in treasury management strategy.
- Working Capital Trends
- Net accounts receivable show a general upward trend, rising from 1.61 billion USD in March 2021 to 2.13 billion USD in June 2026, indicating growth in credit extensions or increased revenue volume. Materials and supplies also grew steadily, peaking at 919 million USD in June 2026, which aligns with the overall expansion of operations.
- Strategic Asset Reallocation
- A divergence is observed between owned properties and leased assets. While net properties increased, operating lease assets followed a consistent downward trend, falling from 1.58 billion USD in March 2021 to 875 million USD in June 2026. This pattern suggests a strategic transition away from leased arrangements in favor of owned assets.
- Other Asset Components
- Long-term investments grew steadily from 2.17 billion USD to 2.98 billion USD. Other assets experienced a sharp increase between September and December 2021, jumping from 285 million USD to 1.08 billion USD, and remained relatively stable above the 1 billion USD mark thereafter.
