Analysis of the total long-term debt carrying amount reveals two distinct phases: a sustained period of deleveraging followed by a significant escalation in total liabilities. From March 31, 2020, through March 31, 2023, total debt exhibited a consistent downward trend, decreasing from US$ 138,656 thousand to US$ 66,456 thousand. This period reflects a systematic reduction in both current and long-term obligations.

Total Debt Trajectory
A sharp reversal in the debt trend occurred between March 31, 2023, and March 31, 2024, where total debt rose from US$ 66,456 thousand to US$ 262,126 thousand. This represents a nearly fourfold increase in the carrying amount of long-term debt and finance lease obligations within a single fiscal year.
Current Liability Shift
The current portion of long-term debt and finance lease obligations remained relatively low between 2022 and 2023, staying below US$ 6 million. However, as of March 31, 2024, this figure escalated to US$ 100,307 thousand, indicating a substantial increase in obligations due within the short term.
Long-Term Obligation Trends
Long-term debt obligations decreased incrementally from US$ 126,088 thousand in 2020 to a low of US$ 60,881 thousand in 2023, before surging to US$ 161,819 thousand by March 31, 2024. The magnitude of the 2024 increase suggests a significant new financing event or a substantial expansion of finance lease commitments.
