General Mills's Interest Expense for the months ended in May. 2019 was USD -130 Mil. Its Operating Income for the months ended in May. 2019 was USD 718 Mil. And its Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation for the quarter that ended in May. 2019 was USD 11,625 Mil.
General Mills's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in May. 2019 is
| Interest Coverage | = | -1 | * | Operating Income (Q: May. 2019 ) | / | Interest Expense (Q: May. 2019 ) |
| = | -1 | * | 718.1 | / | -130.4 | |
| = | 5.51 |
The higher the ratio, the stronger the company's financial strength is.
2. Debt to revenue ratio. The lower, the better.
General Mills's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in May. 2019 is
| Debt to Revenue Ratio | = | Total Debt (Q: May. 2019 ) | / | Revenue (Q: May. 2019 ) | ||
| = | (Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation | + | Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) | / | Revenue | |
| = | (2865.2 | + | 11624.8) | / | 4161.7 | |
| = | 3.48 |
3. Altman Z-Score.
Z-Score model is an accurate forecaster of failure up to two years prior to distress. It can be considered the assessment of the distress of industrial corporations.
The zones of discrimination were as such:
When Z-Score is less than 1.81, it is in Distress Zones.
When Z-Score is greater than 2.99, it is in Safe Zones.
When Z-Score is between 1.81 and 2.99, it is in Grey Zones.
General Mills has a Z-score of 2.28, indicating it is in Grey Zones. This implies that General Mills is in some kind of financial stress. If it is below 1.81, the company may faces bankrupcy risk.
* All numbers are in millions except for per share data and ratio. All numbers are in their local exchange's currency.
