Yellow Pages' management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Yellow Pages manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. As of the 21st of December 2024, Return On Tangible Assets is likely to grow to 0.39. Also, Return On Capital Employed is likely to grow to 0.54. At this time, Yellow Pages' Asset Turnover is very stable compared to the past year.
Yellow Pages Limited currently holds 43.91 M in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 6.15, indicating the company may have difficulties to generate enough cash to satisfy its financial obligations. Yellow Pages Limited has a current ratio of 3.44, suggesting that it is liquid enough and is able to pay its financial obligations when due. Debt can assist Yellow Pages until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Yellow Pages' 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 Yellow Pages Limited sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Yellow to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Yellow Pages' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Yellow Pages could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Yellow Pages when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation.

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 Yellow Pages moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Yellow Pages Limited 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.
