Aberdeen Australia Management Performance (%)

The company has Return on Asset of 1.48 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $1.48 of profit. This is way below average. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of 0.85 %, implying that it generated $0.85 on every 100 dollars invested. Aberdeen Australia's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Aberdeen Australia manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Aberdeen Australia Ef has 7.11 M in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.05, which may show that the company is not taking advantage of profits from borrowing. Aberdeen Australia has a current ratio of 2.09, demonstrating that it is liquid and is capable to disburse its financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Aberdeen Australia until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Aberdeen Australia'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 Aberdeen Australia sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Aberdeen to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Aberdeen Australia's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
