Liabilities
Everything the company owes — to suppliers, banks, employees and the state.
Liabilities split into current (due within a year: trade payables, tax debts, wages) and non-current (loans and leases falling due later than a year out).
A large liabilities figure is not in itself a bad sign. A growing company borrows to grow, and supplier payment terms are an ordinary source of working capital. What matters is the ratio: how much is owed against assets or equity, and how much of it is due within the year.
