Cash and Cash Equivalents
The proportion of cash and cash equivalents relative to total assets shows a general decline from 9.71% in March 2014 to a low of 1.13% in March 2019, with intermittent fluctuations. This indicates a decreasing share of highly liquid assets over time, reaching minimal levels in early 2019 before increasing slightly to 4.10% in June 2019.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash remains negligible throughout the periods, generally below 0.1%, indicating minimal limitations on cash usage compared to total assets.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments exhibit a downward trend, starting at 5.04% in March 2014, peaking at 8.08% in June 2015, and then steadily declining to a very low 0.17% by June 2019. This suggests a significant reduction in short-term financial assets over the observed periods.
Trade, Net
The trade receivables, net of allowances, largely fluctuate between approximately 10% to 15%, starting at 13.99% in March 2014 and ending near 11.47% in June 2019. It shows relative stability with some minor decrease in the mid-2015 to 2016 period, followed by a slight recovery.
Related Parties
The assets related to related parties remain quite stable, fluctuating slightly around 0.5% to 0.9%, indicating a minor and consistent portion of assets tied to related entities.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable as a share of total assets reveal a mild downward trend from 14.88% in March 2014 to around 12% in mid-2019, suggesting a modest reduction in this asset category over time.
Inventories
Inventory levels relative to total assets show moderate volatility but a slight overall decline, from about 20.08% in March 2014 to approximately 15.03% in June 2019. This could reflect inventory management adjustments or shifts in inventory valuation.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
This category remains relatively stable, fluctuating between roughly 2.9% and 5.4%, with a mild upward trend mid-period and slight decreases near the end. It indicates a steady but small portion of current assets held as prepaid expenses or other assets.
Current Assets
The total current assets trend downward from 53.88% in March 2014 to a low of approximately 34.41% in March 2019, with some increase towards 35.57% in June 2019. This decline suggests a strategic reduction in liquid and short-term assets relative to overall asset base.
Operating Lease Assets
Data on operating lease assets is missing until 2019, when it registers about 5%, indicating a new or increasing recognition of these assets in recent periods.
Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) at Cost
PPE at cost grows steadily from 41.16% of total assets in March 2014 to a peak near 66.13% in December 2018, slightly decreasing thereafter. This reflects significant investment or revaluation efforts in fixed assets during the period.
Accumulated Depreciation
Accumulated depreciation increases in absolute terms (more negative) from around -10.41% to roughly -22% by late 2018, indicating ongoing asset aging and depreciation consistent with growth in PPE.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
The net PPE proportion increases from 30.75% in March 2014 to around 44.12% in March 2019, peaking in late 2018, showing a rising net fixed asset base despite accumulated depreciation charges.
Investment in PO Joint Ventures
This investment remains stable, generally between 1.5% and 1.7%, reflecting consistent equity involvement in joint ventures without significant growth or reduction.
Equity Investments
Equity investments experience a slight decline from over 6% in 2014 to approximately 5.13% by June 2019, indicating a decrease in these holdings as a proportion of total assets.
Other Investments and Long-term Receivables
This category remains minimal and stable, below 1%, with no clear upward or downward trend.
Investments and Long-term Receivables
The combined investments and long-term receivables proportion mildly decreases over time from about 7.83% to 6.78%, suggesting a modest reduction of non-current financial assets.
Goodwill
Goodwill stays steady near 2% until late 2018, when it spikes to over 6%, maintaining this higher level into 2019. This increase may be related to acquisitions or revaluation reflecting intensified intangible asset recording.
Intangible Assets, Net
Net intangible assets are fairly stable between 2% and 3%, with a noticeable spike to above 3% during late 2018 before returning slightly lower, suggesting some asset revaluation or acquisitions with intangible components.
Other Assets
Other assets decline from 2.24% in early 2014 to about 1.24% in mid-2019, indicating a gradual decrease in miscellaneous or less significant asset categories.
Noncurrent Assets
Noncurrent assets as a percentage of total assets increase steadily from 46.12% in early 2014 to over 65% by early 2019, followed by a slight decrease. This trend aligns with increases in PPE and stable goodwill, signaling asset base elongation toward long-term holdings.
Total Assets
Total assets consistently represent 100% of total assets as expected, serving as the reference point for percentage-based analysis.
