Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Dec. 2025 )/Interest Expense (Q: Dec. 2025 )
=-1*22.536/-0.651
=34.62

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

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Dec. 2025 ) / Revenue
=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(0 + 837.128) / 380.572
