Premium Brands Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0362 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0362 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.0687 %, meaning that it generated $0.0687 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Premium Brands' management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Premium Brands manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Premium Brands Holdings has accumulated 191.8 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 1.0, which is about average as compared to similar companies. Premium Brands Holdings has a current ratio of 2.01, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Premium Brands until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Premium Brands' 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 Premium Brands Holdings sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Premium to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Premium Brands' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to make a profit is the ultimate goal of any investor. But to identify the right stock is not an easy task. Is Premium Brands a good investment? Although profit is still the single most important financial element of any organization, multiple performance indicators can help investors identify the equity that they will appreciate over time.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Premium Brands could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Premium Brands when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation. So, investors can't just sell and buy back Premium Brands - that would be a violation of the tax code under the "wash sale" rule, and this is why you need to find a similar enough asset and use the proceeds from selling Premium Brands Holdings to buy it.
The correlation of Premium Brands is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as Premium Brands moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Premium Brands Holdings moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the equities are not correlated; they are entirely random. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.
Correlation analysis and pair trading evaluation for Premium Brands can also be used as hedging techniques within a particular sector or industry or even over random equities to generate a better risk-adjusted return on your portfolios.
