Total assets experienced significant expansion over the five-year period, growing from US$ 3.31 billion in 2018 to US$ 8.40 billion by the end of 2022. This growth is primarily driven by a substantial increase in current assets and a steady rise in long-term asset valuations.

Liquidity and Current Assets
A sharp increase in liquidity is evident, with cash and cash equivalents rising from US$ 1.10 billion in 2018 to US$ 4.97 billion in 2022. The most significant acceleration occurred between 2019 and 2020, where cash reserves more than tripled. This trend directly correlates with the growth in total current assets, which expanded from US$ 1.21 billion to US$ 5.19 billion over the analyzed period.
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Goodwill increased from US$ 1.61 billion in 2018 to a peak of US$ 2.32 billion in 2021, before stabilizing at US$ 2.31 billion in 2022. Net intangible assets followed a growth trajectory until 2021, reaching US$ 435.66 million, followed by a decline to US$ 329.31 million in 2022. These patterns suggest a period of inorganic growth through acquisitions followed by subsequent amortization or impairment.
