First Quantum Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0167 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0167 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of (0.1727) %, meaning that it generated substantial loss on money invested by shareholders. First Quantum's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well First Quantum manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. As of the 23rd of November 2024, Return On Tangible Assets is likely to grow to -0.04. In addition to that, Return On Capital Employed is likely to drop to 0. At this time, First Quantum's Total Assets are very stable compared to the past year. As of the 23rd of November 2024, Non Current Assets Total is likely to grow to about 21.3 B, while Other Current Assets are likely to drop about 99.1 M.
First Quantum Minerals has accumulated 7.58 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.96, which is about average as compared to similar companies. First Quantum Minerals has a current ratio of 1.01, suggesting that it is not liquid enough and may have problems paying out its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist First Quantum until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, First Quantum'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 First Quantum Minerals sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for First to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about First Quantum's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to First Quantum could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace First Quantum when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation. So, investors can't just sell and buy back First Quantum - that would be a violation of the tax code under the "wash sale" rule, and this is why you need to find a similar enough asset and use the proceeds from selling First Quantum Minerals to buy it.
The correlation of First Quantum is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as First Quantum moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if First Quantum Minerals moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the equities are not correlated; they are entirely random. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.
Correlation analysis and pair trading evaluation for First Quantum can also be used as hedging techniques within a particular sector or industry or even over random equities to generate a better risk-adjusted return on your portfolios.
