Blackrock International Management Performance (%)

The company has Return on Asset of 1.08 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $1.08 of profit. This is way below average. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of (11.92) %, meaning that it generated no profit with money invested by stockholders. Blackrock International's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Blackrock International manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Blackrock International Growth has 137.72 K in debt. Blackrock International has a current ratio of 1.1, demonstrating that it is in a questionable position to pay out its financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Blackrock International until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Blackrock International's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Blackrock International sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Blackrock to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Blackrock International's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
