Over 2021–2024 INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION’s total assets moved from $132,001m in 2021 to $137,175m in 2024 — a net increase of $5,174m (≈+3.9%). The path was uneven: a decline to $127,243m in 2022 (–$4,758m, –3.6%) was followed by a recovery in 2023 and a modest rise in 2024. This pattern is consistent with large technology and services firms that periodically reshape their asset base through portfolio adjustments, acquisitions/divestitures and working-capital swings. Total liabilities fell modestly from $113,005m in 2021 to $109,783m in 2024 (–$3,222m, –2.9%), with a notable drop in 2022, a partial rebound in 2023, and further reduction in 2024. Stockholders’ equity strengthened materially, rising from $18,901m to $27,307m (+$8,406m, +44.5%), which lifted the equity-to-assets ratio from about 14.3% to 19.9% and lowered leverage (liabilities/assets from ≈85.7% to ≈80.1%). The balance-sheet trend points to deleveraging and a stronger capital cushion—positive for financial flexibility—though the 2025 row shows zeros (missing data) and should be ignored when assessing ongoing trends.
