Santhera Pharmaceuticals Holding has accumulated 25.8 M in total debt. Santhera Pharmaceuticals has a current ratio of 0.74, indicating that it has a negative working capital and may not be able to pay financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Santhera Pharmaceuticals until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Santhera Pharmaceuticals' 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 Santhera Pharmaceuticals sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Santhera to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Santhera Pharmaceuticals' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
