1 US$ in millions


Current Assets
Current assets demonstrate an overall increase from 2005 to 2024, starting at 2,325 million US dollars in 2005 and reaching 4,021 million US dollars in 2024. There are fluctuations throughout the years, with a notable peak in 2014 at 4,679 million and a subsequent decline followed by some recovery. The asset base appears to show moderate growth over the period despite intermittent dips.
Current Liabilities
Current liabilities also display variability, beginning at 3,384 million US dollars in 2005 and increasing to 5,254 million by 2024. There are periods of both decline (notably from 2005 to 2009) and increase, with a significant rise observed after 2015, consistent with rising liabilities approaching the later years. This trend indicates increasing short-term obligations over the long term.
Current Ratio
The current ratio, representing liquidity, starts below 1 at 0.69 in 2005, indicating potential liquidity risk initially. It improves and peaks in 2009 at 1.37, suggesting enhanced short-term financial stability. However, following this peak, it generally declines with oscillations, frequently falling below 1 in the recent years, including 0.62 in 2021 and around 0.77 in 2024. This decreasing trend may imply a weakening liquidity position, with current liabilities often exceeding current assets in the most recent periods.
Overall Analysis
While current assets have increased moderately over the analyzed period, current liabilities have risen at a higher rate, contributing to the downward trend in the current ratio. This decline in liquidity ratio signals increasing pressure on the company's short-term financial health. The fluctuating but mostly below-1.0 ratio in recent years could warrant attention to short-term asset management and liability structure to mitigate potential liquidity risks.
