Liquidity Ratios (Summary)

The liquidity profile demonstrates a consistent ability to meet short-term obligations, characterized by a current ratio that remains well above 1.0 throughout the analyzed period. While overall solvency is stable, there are observable cyclical fluctuations in immediate liquidity metrics, indicating periodic shifts in asset composition and cash management.
- Current Ratio Trends
- The current ratio exhibits a general trend of stability with periodic volatility, fluctuating between a low of 1.27 in April 2023 and a peak of 1.93 in June 2025. A recovery phase is noted following the April 2023 trough, with the ratio maintaining a range between 1.63 and 1.77 for much of 2023 and 2024. The most recent periods show a stabilization around the 1.53 to 1.55 level.
- Quick Ratio Trends
- The quick ratio reflects a tighter liquidity position compared to the current ratio, oscillating around the 1.0 threshold. A notable dip to 0.80 occurred in April 2023, followed by a period of strength that peaked at 1.36 in December 2025. The ratio frequently returns to the 0.95 to 1.05 range, suggesting that the capacity to cover liabilities without relying on inventory is adequate but subject to periodic tightening.
- Cash Ratio Trends
- The cash ratio displays the highest level of volatility among the three metrics. Values range from a minimum of 0.17 in July 2022 to a maximum of 0.67 in December 2025. Significant spikes are observed in December 2022 (0.50), December 2023 (0.58), and December 2025 (0.67), followed by sharp contractions in the subsequent quarters, indicating a pattern of seasonal or strategic cash accumulation and deployment.
- Comparative Liquidity Analysis
- A persistent gap between the current ratio and the quick ratio indicates that a significant portion of current assets is held in inventory. The disparity is most pronounced during peaks in the current ratio, such as in June 2025. Furthermore, the high volatility of the cash ratio relative to the more stable current ratio suggests that while the total current asset base remains robust, the specific allocation to cash is managed dynamically.

2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The liquidity position of the organization exhibits a pattern of moderate volatility characterized by a significant trough in early 2023 followed by a period of recovery and stabilization. The current ratio consistently remained above 1.0, indicating a sustained ability to cover short-term obligations with short-term assets throughout the analyzed period.
- Current Ratio Trends
- The current ratio fluctuated between a minimum of 1.27 in April 2023 and a maximum of 1.93 in June 2025. A notable decline is observed between October 2022 (1.74) and April 2023 (1.27), marking the lowest point of liquidity during the period. Subsequently, a recovery trend emerged, with the ratio climbing back to 1.75 by December 2023 and remaining largely between 1.50 and 1.93 through June 2026.
- Current Asset Dynamics
- Current assets displayed significant fluctuations, generally oscillating between 18 billion and 25 billion US dollars. A substantial peak was recorded on December 31, 2025, reaching 28.7 billion US dollars, which contributed to a high current ratio of 1.89 during that quarter. Aside from this peak, assets remained relatively stable, with a baseline typically maintained above 22 billion US dollars from 2023 onward.
- Current Liability Behavior
- A sharp increase in current liabilities is observed on December 31, 2022, where obligations rose to 17.0 billion US dollars, coinciding with a compression of the current ratio. Following this peak, liabilities stabilized, fluctuating within a narrower range of 12.7 billion to 15.2 billion US dollars for the remainder of the period. This stabilization in liabilities, paired with growth in assets, facilitated the overall improvement in the liquidity ratio through 2024 and 2025.
- Liquidity Correlation
- The volatility in the current ratio is primarily driven by the interplay between cyclical asset growth and the management of short-term liabilities. The period of lowest liquidity in early 2023 resulted from the lag between a spike in liabilities in late 2022 and the subsequent rebuilding of current assets. By mid-2025, the organization reached its strongest liquidity position, characterized by a peak in the current ratio of 1.93.

1 Q2 2026 Calculation
Quick ratio = Total quick assets ÷ Current liabilities
= 15,203 ÷ 15,069 = 1.01
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The liquidity position exhibits a fluctuating trend over the analyzed period, with the quick ratio oscillating between a minimum of 0.80 and a maximum of 1.36. The overall pattern suggests a cyclical approach to liquidity management, where the company periodically strengthens its liquid asset base to exceed its short-term obligations.
- Total Quick Assets Analysis
- Quick assets demonstrate significant volatility, characterized by recurring peaks every December. Notable surges occurred in December 2022 (US$ 17,951 million), December 2023 (US$ 17,744 million), and a period high in December 2025 (US$ 20,671 million). These peaks are typically followed by contractions in the subsequent quarter, suggesting seasonal fluctuations in cash or receivables levels.
- Current Liabilities Trends
- Short-term obligations remained relatively stable compared to the volatility of quick assets. After peaking in December 2022 at US$ 17,010 million, liabilities generally trended downward or stabilized, fluctuating within a range of US$ 12,718 million to US$ 15,189 million through the remainder of the period.
- Quick Ratio Interpretation
- The quick ratio experienced a notable contraction in early 2023, reaching a low of 0.80 in April 2023, indicating a temporary period where liquid assets were insufficient to cover current liabilities without relying on inventory. However, a recovery followed, with the ratio remaining consistently above 1.0 from September 2023 through June 2024, peaking at 1.27 in December 2023. A second significant peak of 1.36 was recorded in December 2025, coinciding with the highest recorded level of quick assets. The ratio concluded the period by stabilizing near the 1.0 threshold, ending at 1.01 in June 2026.

1 Q2 2026 Calculation
Cash ratio = Total cash assets ÷ Current liabilities
= 4,064 ÷ 15,069 = 0.27
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The cash ratio exhibits significant volatility over the analyzed period, reflecting a fluctuating liquidity position characterized by periodic spikes and subsequent contractions. While total cash assets show aggressive swings, current liabilities remain relatively stable, suggesting that changes in the cash ratio are primarily driven by the management of liquid assets rather than shifts in short-term obligations.
- Cash Asset Volatility
- Total cash assets demonstrate a cyclical pattern of accumulation and depletion. Significant peaks are observed in December 2022 (8,524 million USD), June 2024 (8,823 million USD), and December 2025 (10,105 million USD). These peaks are frequently followed by sharp declines, such as the drop to 3,256 million USD by March 2026, indicating periodic large-scale cash outflows or strategic capital allocations.
- Current Liability Trends
- Current liabilities remained within a range of approximately 11,000 million USD to 17,000 million USD. A peak occurred in December 2022 at 17,010 million USD, followed by a general stabilization between 13,000 million USD and 15,000 million USD from 2023 through 2026. This relative stability indicates a consistent level of short-term debt and operational obligations.
- Cash Ratio Analysis
- The cash ratio fluctuates between a low of 0.17 in July 2022 and a high of 0.67 in December 2025. There is a noticeable trend of liquidity expansion during the latter half of each calendar year, with peaks typically occurring in December. However, the ratio frequently reverts to lower levels—often between 0.20 and 0.30—at the start of subsequent periods, suggesting a pattern of rapid cash utilization following periods of accumulation.
