Cash vs. debt€349M vs. €2.6B
Current ratio1.7×Short-term assets for each €1 of bills due within a year
Interest coverage9.6×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.
