Ebos Group  (ASX:EBO) 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.

Ebos Group (ASX:EBO) Business Description

Traded in Other Exchanges
Address
108 Wrights Road, P.O. Box 411, Christchurch, STL, NZL, 8024
Ebos is the largest pharmaceutical wholesaler and distributor across Australia and New Zealand. It services community pharmacies and hospitals, which contribute around 60% and 30% of revenue respectively. Drug pricing and wholesale margins for PBS medicine are governed by the Australian government's Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme, or PBS. Wholesale gross margins are capped at 7% for community pharmacy and 10% for hospitals, and ongoing price reform typically results in low single digit revenue growth. Aside from pharma distribution, Ebos operates an animal health product wholesale, manufacturing and retail business, as well as undertaking third party logistics services. These segments are smaller contributors to group revenue but due to the unregulated nature are higher-margin operations.
