The company’s total debt, specifically the carrying amount, demonstrates a generally stable pattern over the observed period. While there was an initial decrease, the figures subsequently exhibit minimal fluctuation.

Total Long-Term Debt
In 2021, total long-term debt was reported at US$1,576 million. This value decreased to US$1,486 million in 2022. From 2022 through 2025, total long-term debt remained remarkably consistent, increasing incrementally to US$1,488 million in 2023, US$1,489 million in 2024, and US$1,491 million in 2025. This suggests a period of stable long-term financing.

Current debt, net, was reported at US$92 million in 2021, with no subsequent values available for comparison. The absence of current debt figures for 2022-2025 limits a comprehensive assessment of short-term debt management.

Debt Composition
Long-term debt consistently represents the vast majority of the company’s total debt. The difference between total long-term debt and current debt, net, is substantial in 2021, and the consistent values for long-term debt suggest this composition remained relatively stable despite the initial decrease in total debt.

The limited volatility in total long-term debt from 2022 to 2025 indicates a conservative approach to debt management during this period. The initial decrease in 2022 warrants further investigation to understand the underlying reasons, such as debt repayment or refinancing.
