Total assets exhibited a consistent long-term growth trajectory, increasing from 345,573 million USD in March 2021 to 417,882 million USD by March 2026. This expansion is primarily driven by significant investments in infrastructure and a notable increase in liquidity toward the end of the observed period.

Liquidity and Current Asset Management
Current assets remained relatively stable for the majority of the period, fluctuating between 35,000 million USD and 40,000 million USD, before experiencing a significant peak of 56,922 million USD in December 2025. This volatility is largely attributable to cash and cash equivalents, which showed extreme variance, dropping to a low of 1,661 million USD in March 2022 before surging to 19,048 million USD in December 2025. Accounts receivable, net, demonstrated a steady upward trend, growing from 22,507 million USD in March 2021 to 26,655 million USD in March 2026, suggesting a gradual increase in credit extended to customers or a growth in the subscriber base.
Infrastructure and Fixed Asset Investment
Gross property, plant, and equipment (PP&E) showed a persistent increase, rising from 282,742 million USD in March 2021 to 357,650 million USD in March 2026. While accumulated depreciation grew concurrently, reaching 231,678 million USD, the net PP&E remained stable around 107,000 million USD for several years before a sharp increase to 125,972 million USD in the final quarter of the data set. This indicates a period of intensified capital expenditure toward the end of the timeline.
Intangible Assets and Spectral Holdings
Wireless licenses represented a substantial portion of the asset base, with a significant step-increase occurring between June and September 2021, where values jumped from 98,034 million USD to 145,767 million USD. Following this increase, licenses grew marginally to 157,082 million USD by March 2026. Goodwill remained stable at approximately 28,000 million USD until a reduction to 22,841 million USD in December 2023, followed by a recovery to 30,628 million USD in March 2026, suggesting potential impairment charges followed by new acquisitions.
Non-Current Asset Composition
Non-current assets grew from 305,926 million USD in March 2021 to 373,159 million USD in March 2026. The growth in this segment was driven by the combined increase in net PP&E and wireless licenses. Operating lease right-of-use assets showed a gradual decline from a peak of 28,180 million USD in June 2021 to 23,401 million USD in March 2026, indicating the winding down of certain lease obligations over time.
