Deterra Royalties  (ASX:DRR) Cash Ratio Explanation

The cash ratio is more conservative than other liquidity ratios, such as Quick Ratio and Current Ratio, because it only considers a company's most liquid resources. The numerator of cash ratio only considers Cash, Cash Equivalents and marketable securities. Other current assets, such as accounts receivable and inventories, are not included. The rationale is that these assets may require time to be transformed into cash, and the amount of money received is also uncertain.

The cash ratio shows a company’s ability to pay all current liabilities immediately without selling or liquidating other assets. Generally speaking, a higher cash ratio suggests the company has a stronger ability to cover its short-term debt. However, a high cash ratio could also indicate inefficient management: the company is inefficient in making full utilization of cash to invest protential profitable project. It may also suggest that the company is not confident about future profitability.

In general, the higher the cash ratio, the better the company's liquidity position.

Deterra Royalties Business Description

Other Exchanges DETRF:USA
Address 140 St Georges Terrace, Level 16, Perth, WA, AUS, 6000
Deterra Royalties was spun out from Iluka Resources in October 2020, with Iluka retaining a 20% interest. Its only material income generating asset is a royalty covering iron ore produced by BHP from the Mining Area C royalty area in Western Australia. This includes the North Flank mine, producing around 60 million metric tons of iron ore a year, and the South Flank mine, which produces around 80 million metric tons. It also covers most of the Tandanya and Mudlark deposits, which BHP intends to develop in the longer term as part of its plan to operate the MAC production hub for at least 50 years. Consistent with its strategy to grow into a diversified royalty firm, its Trident Royalties purchase is likely to provide modest diversification from iron ore.
