Sandstorm Gold's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Sandstorm Gold manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. As of the 16th of February 2025, Return On Tangible Assets is likely to grow to 0.02. Also, Return On Capital Employed is likely to grow to 0.07. At this time, Sandstorm Gold's Intangibles To Total Assets are very stable compared to the past year.

Sandstorm Gold Ltd has accumulated 435 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.01, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Sandstorm Gold has a current ratio of 10.76, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Sandstorm Gold until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Sandstorm Gold'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 Sandstorm Gold sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Sandstorm to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Sandstorm Gold's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Sandstorm Gold could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Sandstorm Gold 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 Sandstorm Gold - 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 Sandstorm Gold Ltd to buy it.
The correlation of Sandstorm Gold 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 Sandstorm Gold moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Sandstorm Gold 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.
