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 analysis of the financial data reveals several observable trends over the examined periods. The company's liquidity position, as indicated by cash and cash equivalents, exhibits fluctuations with a general upward progression from early 2020 through 2024, culminating in a notable increase reaching over US$16 billion by late 2025. Trade accounts receivable demonstrate variability, initially decreasing throughout 2020, then growing substantially beginning around early 2024 and continuing through 2025, which could indicate higher credit sales or collection delays.
Inventory levels show a gradual increase over the years, reflecting possible inventory buildup or expansion in operations. Other current assets display a significant surge beginning early 2024, more than doubling compared to prior periods, which suggests possible changes in asset composition or timing of recognition. Correspondingly, total current assets mirror these trends, with steady growth peaking near US$31.5 billion by late 2025, indicating a stronger short-term asset base.
On the fixed asset front, the net value of property, plant, and equipment exhibits a slight declining trend initially, followed by stabilization and a moderate increase starting 2024, though remaining relatively stable overall. Goodwill remains essentially constant around US$43 billion until early 2024, where it nearly doubles to above US$97 billion, maintaining that elevated level through 2025. Intangible assets, however, steadily decrease from over US$21 billion in 2020 to just above US$3 billion by late 2025, suggesting amortization or disposals over time.
Other long-term assets increase moderately in the early years and then more markedly from 2024 onward, reaching close to US$7 billion, which aligns with the growth observed in long-term assets overall. The long-term asset base decreases slightly over the first few years but then experiences a substantial jump commencing in 2024, tripling in magnitude to approximately US$150 billion, reflecting major changes in the asset structure or acquisitions.
Total assets reflect the combination of these movements, exhibiting a decline from early 2020 to early 2023, followed by a pronounced increase beginning in 2024 and continuing robustly into 2025, ultimately almost doubling the asset base compared to earlier periods. This pattern suggests significant expansion activities, restructuring, or large-scale investments occurring around 2024 that dramatically impact the company's asset profile.
