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.

The asset structure of the organization exhibits a strategic transition from liquid current assets toward long-term capital investments over the period from March 2021 to June 2026. Total assets grew from 63.3 billion US$ to 71.3 billion US$, characterized by a steady increase in non-current assets that offset a general contraction in current asset holdings.
- Liquidity and Current Asset Trends
- Current assets experienced a peak of 25.6 billion US$ in March 2022 before entering a gradual decline, ending at 17.5 billion US$ by June 2026. This trend is primarily driven by a significant reduction in cash and cash equivalents, which fell from a high of 12.2 billion US$ in March 2022 to a range between 4.6 billion US$ and 6.8 billion US$ in the subsequent years. Accounts receivable remained relatively stable, generally fluctuating between 9 billion US$ and 12 billion US$, often showing seasonal spikes during the December quarters.
- Fixed Asset Expansion
- Property, plant, and equipment (PP&E), net, showed a consistent upward trajectory, increasing from 32.5 billion US$ in March 2021 to 37.9 billion US$ by June 2026. This steady growth indicates a sustained commitment to expanding physical infrastructure and operational capacity.
- Intangible Assets and Goodwill
- There is a notable increase in the valuation of intangible assets and goodwill. Goodwill grew from 3.3 billion US$ in early 2021 to 5.8 billion US$ by late 2025, with a significant step-up occurring between September 2025 and December 2025. Similarly, net intangible assets rose from 2.3 billion US$ to approximately 4.0 billion US$ over the analyzed period, suggesting strategic acquisitions or increased capitalization of intangible resources.
- Non-Current Asset Composition
- Non-current assets grew from 42.3 billion US$ in March 2021 to 53.7 billion US$ in June 2026. Beyond the growth in PP&E and goodwill, operating lease right-of-use assets remained relatively stable, hovering around 4 billion US$. Other non-current assets saw a temporary surge peaking at 5.2 billion US$ in March 2023 before normalizing to approximately 1.9 billion US$ by 2026.
In summary, the balance sheet reveals a shift in financial positioning, where liquid reserves were deployed to fund a larger non-current asset base. The growth in PP&E and the late-stage increase in goodwill suggest an organizational focus on long-term scaling and inorganic growth.
