Short-term borrowings
Short-term borrowings as a percentage of total liabilities and equity remained very low over the periods, generally around 0.01% to 0.03%, except for a significant spike to 0.17% in the most recent quarter, indicating a slight increase in reliance on short-term financing.
Current portion of long-term debt
This item exhibited some variability with values mostly between 3.83% and 9.87%. There was a notable peak around late 2020 and early 2022, reaching close to 9.8-9.87%, suggesting increased short-term portions of long-term obligations during those periods. The data is missing for several recent periods, limiting trend analysis in 2023 and 2024.
Accounts payable
Accounts payable fluctuated within a narrow band from approximately 2.16% to 3.37% of total liabilities and equity, showing no clear directional trend but moderate short-term variations indicating consistent supplier or operational payables management.
Dividends payable
Dividends payable gradually increased from around 0.71% in early 2019 to about 1.38%-1.39% by early 2024, signaling a steady upward trend in declared but unpaid dividends relative to total liabilities and equity.
Accrued expenses
Accrued expenses showed moderate fluctuations, ranging between about 3.63% and 5.11%. The overall trend seems stable with slight increases in some quarters, particularly in mid-2021, which may indicate varying operational expenses or timing differences in recognition.
Accrued compensation and related items
This liability item displayed more pronounced variation, oscillating between approximately 1.3% and 2.82%. Peaks were observed near end-of-year quarters, consistent with potential bonuses or employee compensation accrual cycles.
Income taxes payable
Income taxes payable exhibited significant volatility, with values ranging from as low as 0.27% to peaks above 2%. Sharp increases occurred in early 2023, reaching up to 2.01%, potentially reflecting timing differences in tax payments or increased tax liabilities in that period.
Other current liabilities
Other current liabilities showed a general upward trend from about 0.43% to peaks near 0.98%, with some fluctuation, indicating a gradual rise in miscellaneous current liabilities as a portion of total liabilities and equity.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities as a whole were quite variable, notably rising sharply to above 21% during parts of 2021-2022, before declining to around 11.4%-13.3% in 2023 and early 2024. The peak indicates a concentration of current obligations in the earlier period, followed by a reduction.
Long-term debt, net of discount and issuance costs, excluding current portion
Long-term debt consistently constituted the largest portion of total liabilities and equity, though with a steady decline from over 59% in early 2019 down to around 45%-47% in recent periods. This indicates a gradual reduction in long-term debt relative to total capitalization.
Noncurrent deferred tax liabilities
Noncurrent deferred tax liabilities decreased over time from about 4.26% down to below 1%, suggesting diminishing deferred tax obligations or changes in tax positions.
Noncurrent operating lease liabilities
This item remained relatively stable around 1.2%-1.5% with minor fluctuations across the observed periods, showing a consistent lease-related liability burden.
Other taxes payable
Other taxes payable showed slight decline early on (from 2.4% to below 1.9%) but then stabilized around 1.7%-2.0%. This reflects some tax liability variability but overall relative steadiness.
Other noncurrent liabilities
Other noncurrent liabilities were fairly consistent, oscillating between about 1.45% to 2.18%, showing no dramatic changes and indicating stable long-term miscellaneous obligations.
Noncurrent liabilities
Noncurrent liabilities decreased from nearly 69% in early 2019 to about 51.5% by the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a sizable reduction in long-term obligations relative to the capital structure over the period.
Total liabilities
Total liabilities declined gradually from approximately 79% to around 65% of total liabilities and equity, signaling a shift toward a stronger equity component or debt reduction over the analyzed timeframe.
Common stock, $0.01 par value
The proportion of common stock in total capitalization remained minimal and steady near 0.03%-0.05%, indicating no material change in par value representation in the capital structure.
Treasury stock, at cost
Treasury stock increased markedly in absolute negative terms from approximately -14.6% to -41.3% of total liabilities and equity, reflecting significant ongoing share repurchases or retentions, which materially reduced equity.
Additional paid-in capital
Additional paid-in capital fluctuated moderately, generally between 7.3% and 9.3%, without a clear trend, implying relatively steady contributions beyond par value capital.
Retained earnings
Retained earnings showed a strong positive upward trend, growing from about 32% to over 74% of total liabilities and equity. This significant increase suggests robust earnings retention and accumulated profits enhancing equity.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss
This item remained negative throughout, fluctuating mildly between approximately -5.5% and -6.5%, indicating persistent but relatively stable comprehensive losses affecting equity value.
Total equity
Total equity increased from approximately 21% to around 35% of the capital structure, demonstrating a strengthening equity base driven largely by increased retained earnings, despite larger treasury stock balances.
