Edwards Lifesciences' management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Edwards Lifesciences manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Edwards Lifesciences has accumulated 596.3 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 19.3, indicating the company may have difficulties to generate enough cash to satisfy its financial obligations. Edwards Lifesciences has a current ratio of 3.59, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Edwards Lifesciences until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Edwards Lifesciences' 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 Edwards Lifesciences sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Edwards to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Edwards Lifesciences' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
