Is Ratos financially healthy?
Not really
Ratos carries heavy debt: it would take 4.4 years of earnings to pay it off.
The numbers behind it
Net debt / EBITDA4.4 years
Cash vs. debtSEK 1.1B vs. SEK 7.9B
Current ratio1.3×Short-term assets for each SEK 1 of bills due within a year
Interest coverage0.5×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.
