Saf Tehnika's Interest Expense for the months ended in Mar. 2026 was €-0.02 Mil. Its Operating Income for the months ended in Mar. 2026 was €2.47 Mil. And its Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2026 was €1.04 Mil.

Saf Tehnika's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2026 is

Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Mar. 2026 )/Interest Expense (Q: Mar. 2026 )
=-1*2.467/-0.017
=145.12

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

=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(0.404 + 1.037) / 55.092
=0.03
