Pimco Income Management Performance (%)

The company has Return on Asset of 3.36 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $3.36 of profit. This is considered to be average in the sector. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of 3.81 %, implying that it generated $3.81 on every 100 dollars invested. Pimco Income's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Pimco Income manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Pimco Income Strategy has 199.57 M in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.25, which may show that the company is not taking advantage of profits from borrowing. Pimco Income Strategy has a current ratio of 0.57, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Pimco Income until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Pimco 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 Pimco Income Strategy sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Pimco to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Pimco Income's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The correlation of Pimco Income 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.
