BlackRock Income Closed has a current ratio of 0.03, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist BlackRock Income until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, BlackRock Income'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 BlackRock Income Closed sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for BlackRock to invest in growth at high rates of return.
