Nordic Semiconductor Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.1471 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.1471 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.2349 %, meaning that it generated $0.2349 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Nordic Semiconductor's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Nordic Semiconductor manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Nordic Semiconductor ASA has accumulated 15.55 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.03, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Nordic Semiconductor ASA has a current ratio of 3.53, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Nordic Semiconductor until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Nordic Semiconductor'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 Nordic Semiconductor ASA sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Nordic to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Nordic Semiconductor's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
