First Solar Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of (0.0224) % which means that it has lost $0.0224 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. First Solar's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well First Solar manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
First Solar has accumulated 184.35 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 12.3, indicating the company may have difficulties to generate enough cash to satisfy its financial obligations. First Solar has a current ratio of 3.97, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist First Solar until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, First Solar'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 First Solar sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for First to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about First Solar's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
