Is Pick n Pay Stores financially healthy?
Not really
Pick n Pay Stores earns only 1.0 times its interest bill, which leaves little room.
The numbers behind it
Net debt / EBITDA2.7 years
Current ratio1.0×Short-term assets for each ZAR 1 of bills due within a year
Interest coverage1.0×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.
