Across 2021–2024 NXP’s reported total assets grew from $20.9bn to $24.4bn (≈+16.9%), with most of the expansion in 2022 and only marginal change between 2023 and 2024. Total liabilities rose more modestly from $14.3bn to $15.2bn (+≈6.0%), peaking in 2022 and then drifting down in 2023–24. Stockholders’ equity strengthened materially from $6.5bn to $9.2bn (+≈40.7%), meaning equity growth has outpaced asset growth and the company has been de‑leveraging over the period. The balance‑sheet mix shows improving capitalization: the liabilities/assets ratio fell from ~0.69 in 2021 to ~0.62 in 2024 while equity/assets rose from ~0.31 to ~0.38, indicating greater shareholder financing and lower relative indebtedness. Noteworthy points are the jump in both assets and liabilities in 2022 (possible growth investments or working‑capital swings) followed by stabilization of assets and a gradual reduction in liabilities in 2023–24, which boosted equity. In the context of the cyclical, capital‑intensive semiconductor industry, a stronger equity base and lower leverage position the company better to fund necessary capex or weather industry downturns; note the 2025 row contains zeroes and appears to be missing data, so it was excluded from this analysis.
