Telephone's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Telephone manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Telephone And Data has 2.45 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 47.5, demonstrating that the company may be unable to create cash to meet all of its financial commitments.
