Vertex would need 1.2 years of earnings to pay off its debt, which is manageable.
The numbers behind it
Net debt / EBITDA1.2 years
Cash vs. debt$314M vs. $351M
Current ratio0.9×Short-term assets for each $1 of bills due within a year
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.
