Cash and cash equivalents
Cash levels exhibited significant fluctuations over the analyzed periods, with a marked increase from around $9.3 billion in early 2019 to a peak of approximately $22.8 billion in early 2021. Subsequently, cash balances declined steadily, settling near $9.3 billion by mid-2025. This pattern suggests periods of cash accumulation followed by substantial utilizations or expenditures.
Receivables, net
Net receivables showed volatility but an overall upward trend. After a dip in early 2020, values rebounded strongly, reaching over $10 billion by late 2024, indicating an increase in credit sales or outstanding customer balances over time.
Inventories
Inventory levels fluctuated considerably, with notable peaks in late 2019 and late 2022, both exceeding $60 billion. Despite intermittent decreases, the general tendency was upward, reflecting a potential strategy of stockpiling or responding to supply chain dynamics.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets
These assets remained relatively stable with minor variations, except for a significant spike near $20.8 billion in early 2021, which is an outlier compared to other periods. Outside this anomaly, values ranged between approximately $1.5 billion and $4 billion.
Current assets
The current asset base grew from about $61.7 billion in early 2019 to a peak of $90 billion in early 2021, largely driven by increased cash and inventory balances. After this peak, current assets decreased and stabilized around $80 billion, indicating possible strategic rebalancing.
Property and equipment, net
This asset category showed a consistent increase over time, rising from about $104.6 billion in early 2019 to approximately $121.3 billion in mid-2025, which reflects ongoing capital investments and asset additions.
Finance lease right-of-use assets, net
Finance lease assets followed an increasing trend till mid-2020, followed by a decline and then resumed growth with minor fluctuations, culminating near $6 billion by mid-2025. This suggests adjustments in leased asset portfolios or lease accounting changes.
Property and equipment including finance lease right-of-use assets, net
Combining owned and leased assets, this measure increased steadily from about $108.4 billion in early 2019 to over $127 billion by mid-2025, reinforcing the pattern of growing fixed asset investment.
Operating lease right-of-use assets
Operating lease assets slightly decreased from around $16.8 billion in early 2019 to about $13.6 billion by mid-2025, indicating potential lease terminations, renegotiations, or shifts from operating leases to finance leases.
Goodwill
Goodwill remained relatively stable throughout the periods, fluctuating mildly around the $28 billion to $31 billion range, reflecting steady acquisition premiums or adjustment in the company’s intangible asset base.
Other long-term assets
These assets exhibited considerable variability, peaking near $22.7 billion in mid-2020, then declining and fluctuating around $12 billion to $20 billion, suggestive of varying non-current asset items or changes in long-term investments.
Long-term assets
Long-term assets in total showed a general upward trend from roughly $172.8 billion in early 2019 to about $182.1 billion in mid-2025, indicating sustained growth in fixed and intangible assets over time.
Total assets
Total assets remained relatively stable overall, ranging between approximately $234.5 billion and $263.4 billion, with a noticeable peak in late 2024. The fluctuations were driven primarily by changes in current and long-term asset components.
