Metro AG Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0319 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0319 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Metro AG's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Metro AG manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Metro AG has accumulated 705 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 3.0, implying the company greatly relies on financing operations through barrowing. Metro AG has a current ratio of 0.74, indicating that it has a negative working capital and may not be able to pay financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Metro AG until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Metro AG'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 Metro AG sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Metro to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Metro AG's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
It operates 678 wholesale stores under the METRO and MAKRO brands primarily serving the needs of hotels, restaurants, catering companies, and independent retailers, as well as service providers and authorities in Europe and Asia. The company was formerly known as METRO Wholesale Food Specialist AG and changed its name to METRO AG in August 2017.
