The company has return on total asset
(ROA) of
0.1291 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.1291 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity
(ROE) of
0.2362 %, meaning that it generated $0.2362 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Alphabet's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Alphabet manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Alphabet Class A has accumulated 12.86
B in total debt with debt to equity ratio
(D/E) of 0.12, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Alphabet Class A has a current ratio of 3.09, suggesting that it is
liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Alphabet until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Alphabet's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Alphabet Class A sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Alphabet to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Alphabet's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
