Accounts Payable: Accounts payable showed an initial decline from late 2019 into mid-2020, reaching a low in June 2020. A steady recovery followed, with values increasing consistently through late 2023 and early 2024, peaking in June 2025 before a slight dip in the last reported quarter.
Accrued Liabilities: Accrued liabilities decreased sharply from December 2019 to September 2020, followed by an upward trend through early 2022. After some fluctuation around 2.1 billion to 2.3 billion in early periods, the metric tapered slightly in some quarters but generally remained elevated through mid-2025.
Accrued Payroll and Benefits: Accrued payroll and benefits saw modest increases during 2020, with noticeable growth into early 2021. A peak occurred in October 2023, followed by some volatility thereafter, with significant increases observed by mid-2025, reaching the highest recorded value in the data.
Current Portion of Operating Lease Liability: This liability remained relatively stable across the periods, with only minor fluctuations. There was a general gradual increase starting from early 2023 through 2025, indicating a rising short-term lease obligation.
Stored Value Card Liability and Current Portion of Deferred Revenue: Values fluctuated noticeably over time but showed a trend of increasing balances in later quarters, particularly from early 2023 onwards. Peaks around late 2023 and early 2024 suggest growing deferred revenue or gift card liability balances.
Short-term Debt: Short-term debt spiked significantly in early 2020 but was substantially reduced by the end of that year and remained mostly low or absent in subsequent periods, indicating repayment or refinancing activities.
Current Portion of Long-term Debt: There was considerable volatility in the current portion of long-term debt, with a peak in early 2022 followed by fluctuations up to mid-2025. Notable increases in certain quarters suggest refinancing or debt restructuring efforts.
Current Liabilities: Current liabilities decreased from late 2019 through September 2020, then generally increased with fluctuations thereafter, reaching its highest levels in 2025. This indicates an overall growth in short-term obligations over the analyzed period.
Long-term Debt, Excluding Current Portion: Long-term debt showed a rising trend from late 2019 through mid-2020, followed by a decline into mid-2022. From early 2023 onwards, levels generally stabilized but displayed some fluctuations, with a slight downward trend towards mid-2025.
Operating Lease Liability, Excluding Current Portion: This liability remained fairly steady, hovering around the 7.5 billion to 8.8 billion range, with a gradual increase observable from early 2023 through 2025. This indicates a growing long-term lease commitment.
Deferred Revenue: Deferred revenue decreased gradually from late 2019 through mid-2025, with minor fluctuations. The decline suggests a decrease in advance payments or unearned income during the period.
Other Long-term Liabilities: These liabilities showed gradual growth until 2020, a decline post-2020, followed by fluctuations through 2025. The pattern suggests variability in miscellaneous or contingent long-term obligations over time.
Long-term Liabilities: Long-term liabilities increased sharply from late 2019 through mid-2020, then fluctuated with a general decline into late 2022. From 2023 onward, figures showed moderate variability but remained substantially elevated, with a slight downward trend by mid-2025.
Total Liabilities: Total liabilities generally increased throughout the period, with a noticeable rise from late 2019 into early 2022. Although there were some declines in subsequent quarters, there was an overall upward trajectory reaching peaks in early 2025 before a slight decrease.
Common Stock: Common stock remained relatively constant with minor decreases attributed likely to share repurchase or adjustments recorded between 2021 and 2025.
Additional Paid-in Capital: Additional paid-in capital increased significantly during early 2020 to late 2021, followed by variable but generally rising levels through 2025, indicating capital inflows beyond par value during these periods.
Retained Deficit: Retained deficit deepened markedly during 2020, reflecting operational challenges or losses. While some recovery occurred through 2021, the deficit remained substantial and exhibited persistent negative values with some volatility but no sustained improvement by 2025.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss): Accumulated other comprehensive loss initially worsened but showed signs of recovery with positive values recorded briefly in 2021. Subsequent quarters saw renewed losses, though fluctuations occurred, indicating variable other comprehensive income components.
Shareholders’ Deficit: The shareholder deficit mirrored retained deficit trends, deepening significantly in 2020, improving somewhat in 2021, and then fluctuating with a gradual worsening towards 2025, indicating persistent equity challenges.
Noncontrolling Interests: Noncontrolling interests remained relatively minor and stable, with small fluctuations and occasional positive contributions, indicating limited impact on overall equity.
Total Deficit: Total deficit closely tracked shareholders’ deficit with significant increases in negative value during 2020 followed by moderate improvement and subsequent steady deterioration through mid-2025.
Total Liabilities and Deficit: The combined total of liabilities and deficit increased with volatility throughout the period. The indicator peaked around 2020 and again in early to mid-2025, indicating an overall increase in obligations alongside accumulated losses, reflecting financial strain despite gradual recoveries.
