The total debt (carrying amount) has exhibited a general trend of fluctuation with a net decrease over the six-year period ending May 31, 2024. From a peak of approximately US$ 2.85 billion in 2019, the total debt balance declined to US$ 2.48 billion by 2024, representing an overall reduction of approximately 13%.

Total Debt Trajectory
Total obligations decreased between 2019 and 2021, reaching a relative low of US$ 2.54 billion. A subsequent increase occurred in 2022, where total debt rose to US$ 2.79 billion, before trending downward again over the final two fiscal years to close at US$ 2.48 billion in 2024.
Debt Composition and Maturity Structure
The carrying amount is predominantly comprised of long-term obligations. Debt due after one year consistently represents the vast majority of the total debt, typically remaining above US$ 2 billion. Short-term obligations have shown significant volatility; for example, debt due within one year spiked to US$ 899 million in 2021, indicating a substantial portion of debt approaching maturity, while other periods showed negligible or zero short-term debt.
Observation of Repayment and Refinancing Patterns
The variance in debt due within one year suggests periodic shifts in maturity profiles, likely tied to the maturation of specific tranches or strategic refinancing activities. The overall stability of the total debt balance between 2020 and 2024, fluctuating within a range of approximately US$ 300 million, indicates a consistent approach to maintaining the company's capital leverage levels.
