Carnival Corporation Interest Coverage: 1.8 ( as of Feb13)

* All numbers are in millions except for per share data CCL 10-Y Financials »

Definition

Interest Coverage is a ratio that measures the burden of the debt a company carries and how easily the company can pay off its debt. It is calculated by dividing a company’s Operating Income (EBIT) by its Interest Expense:

Interest Coverage = Operating Income / Interest Expense

The higher the ratio, the stronger the company’s financial strength is.

Formula

Interest Coverage = Operating Income / Interest Expense

Explanation

Ben Graham requires that a company has a minimum interest coverage of 5 with the companies he invested. If the interest coverage is less than 2, the company is burdened by debt. Any business slow or recession may drag the company into a situation where it cannot pay the interest on its debt.

Interest Coverage is an important factor when GuruFocus ranks a company’s overage financial strength.
