OCZ Technology Group (FRA:OADA) Quick Ratio Explanation
The quick ratio is more conservative than the Current Ratio because it excludes inventories from current assets. The ratio derives its name presumably from the fact that assets such as cash and marketable securities are quick sources of cash. Inventories generally take time to be converted into cash, and if they have to be sold quickly, the company may have to accept a lower price than book value of these inventories. As a result, they are justifiably excluded from assets that are ready sources of immediate cash.
In general, low or decreasing quick ratios generally suggest that a company is over-leveraged, struggling to maintain or grow sales, paying bills too quickly or collecting receivables too slowly. On the other hand, a high or increasing quick ratio generally indicates that a company is experiencing solid top-line growth, quickly converting receivables into cash, and easily able to cover its financial obligations. Such companies often have faster inventory turnover and cash conversion cycles.
The higher the quick ratio, the better the company's liquidity position.

OCZ Technology Group (FRA:OADA) Business Description
OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation was formed in 2002. The Company is a provider of high performance solid state drives (SSDs) and memory modules for computing devices and systems. It develops flexible and customizable component solutions quickly and efficiently to meet the ever changing market needs and provide superior customer service. Historically, it mainly sold high performance memory modules to individual computing enthusiasts through catalog and online retail channels. However, SSDs have emerged as a strong market alternative to conventional disk drive technology and SSDs are rooted in much of the same basic technological concepts as its legacy memory module business. Today, as part of a diversification strategy which began in fiscal year 2009, its product mix is significantly more weighted toward the sale of SSDs and the SSD product line has become central to its business. As a result, its target customers are increasingly enterprises and original equipment manufacturers (or OEMs). It designs, develops, manufactures and distributes high performance components for computing devices and systems, including SSDs, other flash memory storage, memory modules, thermal management solutions and PSUs. Its ten largest customers are Amazon.com; ASK Corporation; BAS Group; D&H Distribution Company; Maxcom Memory GmbH; Memoryworld GmbH & Co., KG; Micro Center Corporation; Micro Peripherals LTD; NewEgg.com, operated by Magnell Associate Inc.; and SYX Distribution, Inc. The Company's business is subject to regulation by various federal and state governmental agencies.
