Is Driven Brands Holdings financially healthy?
Not really
Driven Brands Holdings carries heavy debt: it would take 7.6 years of earnings to pay it off.
The numbers behind it
Net debt / EBITDA7.6 years
Cash vs. debt$103M vs. $2.7B
Current ratio1.4×Short-term assets for each $1 of bills due within a year
Interest coverage2.5×How many times operating profit covers the interest bill
How we decide
We measure debt in years of earnings (net debt / EBITDA): under 1 is very comfortable, 1 to 3 is manageable, above 3 is heavy. A company that earns less than 3 times its interest bill also counts as weak.
