Current Borrowings
Current borrowings exhibited significant volatility over the examined period. Starting at 137 million US dollars in mid-2013, the amount surged dramatically to 799 million in 2014, followed by a sharp decline to 244 million in 2015. Subsequently, current borrowings rose again to 427 million in 2016 and 457 million in 2017 before increasing substantially to 1,054 million in 2018. This fluctuation indicates variable short-term debt management strategies or changing liquidity requirements.
Non-Current Borrowings
Non-current borrowings demonstrated a generally increasing trend from 2013 through 2017, rising from 16,321 million US dollars to a peak of 19,456 million in 2017. However, in 2018, there was a slight reduction to 18,469 million. This pattern suggests a sustained reliance on longer-term debt financing with a minor deleveraging or refinancing event occurring in the latest year.
Total Borrowings (Carrying Amount)
Total borrowings followed a gradual upward trajectory between 2013 and 2017, increasing from 16,458 million to 19,913 million US dollars. In 2018, a marginal decrease to 19,523 million was observed. The data indicate that overall debt levels were relatively stable with moderate growth through most years and only a slight reduction at the end of the period monitored.
Summary and Insights
The company's debt profile over the six-year span shows a consistent increase in long-term borrowings, complemented by highly variable short-term borrowings. The increasing non-current borrowings likely reflect strategic financing decisions for capital expenditure or restructuring. Meanwhile, the fluctuations in current borrowings highlight possible adjustments in working capital or interim financing needs. The slight reduction in total borrowings in the latest year may point to initial efforts to manage debt levels or optimize the capital structure. Overall, the company maintained a high leverage position with controlled fluctuations in its debt composition.
