National Storage REIT (OTCPK:NTSGF) 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.

National Storage REIT is the largest self-storage operator in Australia and New Zealand. Majority of its income is derived from rents. Additional revenue streams come from ancillary products and services such as packaging materials, locks, and insurance. The REIT owns most of the centers it operates, and leases roughly a dozen of the sites secured under long-term agreements. The self-storage industry is fragmented, with three large players in National Storage, the listed Abacus Storage King, and privately owned Kennards, accounting for about one-third of the market. The rest are independent operators, with a single center or a small state-based portfolio of assets. Besides organic rent increases, the company's key growth drivers are acquisitions and developments.
