Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to access sufficient cash flows to meet the short-term and long-term cash requirements of our business operations. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, supplemented through various debt financing arrangements and sales of our equity securities. We had total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $6.4 billion as of December 31, 2025, the majority of which was held by foreign subsidiaries and may not be freely transferable to the United States due to local laws or other restrictions. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, we had $1.5 billion available under our Revolving Credit Facility as described below.
The ability of certain subsidiaries to transfer funds or pay dividends to Coupang, Inc. is also restricted due to terms in our credit agreements which require the subsidiaries to meet certain financial covenants, including requirements to maintain a positive net equity balance or having current period income.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had stockholders’ equity of $4.6 billion and $4.1 billion. We may incur losses in the future. We expect that our investment into our growth strategy will continue to be significant, particularly with respect to our Developing Offerings segment, which will continue to focus on our newer offerings and entrance into new geographies, as well as overall expansion of our fulfillment, logistics, and technology capabilities. As part of this expansion to fulfill anticipated future customer demand and planned expansion of services, we plan to acquire and build new fulfillment centers. We have entered into various new construction contracts for capital projects which are expected to be completed over the next two years. These contracts have remaining capital expenditures commitments of $290 million as of December 31, 2025. We expect that our future expenditures for both infrastructure and workforce-related costs will exceed several billion dollars over the next several years. As of December 31, 2025, current taxes payable in Korea was approximately $245 million and is expected to be paid in 2026.
Stock Repurchase Program
In May 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to $1 billion of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock. We may repurchase shares of Class A common stock from time to time through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions. The program has no expiration date, and we are not obligated to repurchase any portion of our total authorization. During 2025, we repurchased 8.8 million shares of Class A common stock for an aggregate amount of $243 million.
Changes in our cash flows were as follows:
| (in millions) | 2025 | 2024 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $1,773 | $1,886 | $(113) |
| Net cash used in investing activities | $(1,254) | $(819) | $(435) |
| Net cash used in financing activities | $(247) | $(69) | $(178) |
Operating Activities
| (in millions) | 2025 | 2024 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net income | $214 | $66 | $148 |
| Adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities | 1,991 | 1,785 | 206 |
| Change in operating assets and liabilities | (432) | 35 | (467) |
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $1,773 | $1,886 | $(113) |
The year-over-year change in operating cash flow was primarily driven by changes in operating assets and liabilities, including an increase in other assets of $365 million due to increases in deposits and contract assets and an increase in accounts receivable of $172 million due to higher payment gateway receipts in 2024 due to timing, partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $143 million due to the timing of inventory purchases. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was also partially offset by a $148 million increase in net income.
Investing Activities
The increase in cash outflow was mainly driven by a $372 million increase in purchases of property and equipment, primarily related to investments made in our fulfillment and logistics infrastructure.
Financing Activities
The year-over-year change in financing cash flow was driven, in part, by repurchases of 8.8 million shares of our Class A common stock for $243 million in 2025 compared to 10 million shares of our Class A common stock for $178 million in 2024. Cash used in

financing activities was also impacted by a $2.1 billion increase in repayments of debt and short-term borrowings, offset by a $2.0 billion increase in proceeds from the issuance of debt and short-term borrowings, both of which were due to the timing of maturities.
We believe that our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we may need additional cash resources in the future if we find and pursue other opportunities for investment, acquisition, strategic cooperation, or other similar actions, which may include investing in technology, our logistics and fulfillment infrastructure, or related talent. If we determine that our cash requirements exceed our amounts of cash on hand or if we decide to change our capital structure, we may seek to issue additional debt or equity securities or obtain credit facilities or other sources of financing. This financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.
Capital Resources
We have entered into material unconditional purchase obligations. These contractual commitments primarily relate to technology related service contracts, fulfillment center construction contracts, and software licenses. We generally enter into term loan facility agreements to finance the construction or purchase of our fulfillment centers. These agreements may require that we provide collateral equal to or greater than the amount borrowed under the arrangement. As we continue to build or purchase additional fulfillment centers, we expect our borrowings under debt financing arrangements to continue to increase. We also have material operating leases which expire over the next ten years as well as obligations for our debt. Total minimum contractual commitments due within the next 12 months were $1.3 billion as of December 31, 2025. Additionally, we have:
operating leases that have not commenced with future minimum lease payments of $689 million with non-cancellable lease terms of 1 to 10 years;
expected defined severance benefits to be paid of $1 billion; and
open purchase orders for inventories that are primarily due in the next 12 months, and are generally cancellable, in full or in part, through the contractual provisions.
Refer to Note 14 — "Commitments and Contingencies", Note 5 — "Defined Severance Benefits", and Note 11 — "Leases" in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for disclosure of our future commitments.
Our short-term and long-term borrowings generally include lines of credit with financial institutions available to be drawn upon for general operating purposes.
Revolving Credit Facility
In June 2025, we entered into a five-year the Revolving Credit Facility, replacing our prior revolving credit and guaranty agreement entered into in February 2021, which was terminated in connection with the entry into the new Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for syndicated, unsecured revolving loans with a total borrowing capacity of up to $1.5 billion. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable benchmark rate, including but not limited to the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.25%. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including certain financial covenants. In July 2025, we borrowed $425 million under the Revolving Credit Facility primarily to finance the redemption of the Farfetch Term Loans. In December 2025, we repaid the $425 million outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2025, there was no balance outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility.
Other Credit Facilities
During 2025, we entered into various unsecured borrowings under other revolving credit facilities, which are due in 2026. These credit facilities contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including certain financial covenants. As of December 31, 2025, aggregate outstanding borrowings under all other credit facilities totaled $963 million with a weighted average interest rate of 3.02%.
Term Loan Agreement
In September 2025, we entered into an unsecured three-year term loan agreement with aggregate borrowings of $439 million to refinance existing facility-backed secured loans maturing in April 2026 and March 2027. The term loan agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and consists of two tranches with an average fixed interest rate of 3.80%.
Farfetch Term Loans
In 2025, we fully redeemed the $493 million of principal amount outstanding on the Farfetch Term Loans.
Refer to Note 13 — "Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt" in Part II, Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for disclosure of our debt obligations.
