1. The debt burden that the company has as measured by its Interest Coverage (current year). The higher, the better.

Note: If both Interest Expense and Interest Income are empty, while Net Interest Income is negative, then use Net Interest Income as Interest Expense.

Agricultural Development Bank's Interest Expense for the months ended in Jun. 2026 was GHS-112 Mil. Its Operating Income for the months ended in Jun. 2026 was GHS138 Mil. And its Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation for the quarter that ended in Jun. 2026 was GHS1,525 Mil.

Agricultural Development Bank's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in Jun. 2026 is

Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Jun. 2026 )/Interest Expense (Q: Jun. 2026 )
=-1*138.398/-112.145
=1.23

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

Good Sign:

Ben Graham prefers companies' interest coverage to be at least 5. Agricultural Development Bank Ltd has enough cash to cover all of its debt. Its financial situation is stable.

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

Agricultural Development Bank's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in Jun. 2026 is

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Jun. 2026 ) / Revenue
=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(0 + 1524.814) / 1554.296
=0.98

3. Altman Z-Score.

When Z-Score is less than 1.81, it is in Distress Zones.
