In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of 0.2141 %, implying that it generated $0.2141 on every 100 dollars invested. Walmart's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Walmart manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. Return On Tangible Assets is likely to gain to 0.1 in 2025. Return On Capital Employed is likely to gain to 0.23 in 2025. At this time, Walmart's Total Current Liabilities is comparatively stable compared to the past year. Non Current Liabilities Total is likely to gain to about 76.9 B in 2025, whereas Liabilities And Stockholders Equity is likely to drop slightly above 135.9 B in 2025.
Walmart has 60.11 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.81, which is OK given its current industry classification. Walmart has a current ratio of 0.85, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Note however, debt could still be an excellent tool for Walmart to invest in growth at high rates of return.
