CTI Logistics's Interest Expense for the months ended in Dec. 2025 was A$-4.2 Mil. Its Operating Income for the months ended in Dec. 2025 was A$18.7 Mil. And its Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation for the quarter that ended in Dec. 2025 was A$126.6 Mil.

CTI Logistics's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in Dec. 2025 is

Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Dec. 2025 )/Interest Expense (Q: Dec. 2025 )
=-1*18.725/-4.196
=4.46

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

2. Debt to revenue ratio. The lower, the better.

CTI Logistics's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in Dec. 2025 is

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Dec. 2025 ) / Revenue
=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(19.021 + 126.572) / 356.89
=0.41
