In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of (14.14) %, meaning that it generated no profit with money invested by stockholders. Western Asset's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Western Asset manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Western Asset Global has 77 M in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.4, which is OK given its current industry classification. Western Asset Global has a current ratio of 0.07, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Western Asset until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Western Asset'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 Western Asset Global sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Western to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Western Asset's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
