How important is Facebook's Liquidity

Facebook financial leverage refers to using borrowed capital as a funding source to finance Facebook ongoing operations. It is usually used to expand the firm's asset base and generate returns on borrowed capital. Facebook financial leverage is typically calculated by taking the company's all interest-bearing debt and dividing it by total capital. So the higher the debt-to-capital ratio (i.e., financial leverage), the riskier the company. Financial leverage can amplify the potential profits to Facebook's owners, but it also increases the potential losses and risk of financial distress, including bankruptcy, if the firm cannot cover its debt costs. The degree of Facebook's financial leverage can be measured in several ways, including by ratios such as the debt-to-equity ratio (total debt / total equity), equity multiplier (total assets / total equity), or the debt ratio (total debt / total assets). Please check the breakdown between Facebook's total debt and its cash.

How is Facebook allocating its cash?

To perform a cash flow analysis of Facebook, investors first need to understand how to read the cash flow statement. A cash flow statement shows the amount of cash Facebook is receiving and how much cash it distributes out in a given period. The Facebook cash flow statement breaks down these inflows and outflows into different buckets, including operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.

Breaking down Facebook Further

The modest gains experienced by current holders of Facebook could raise concerns from investors as the firm closed today at a share price of 189.91 on 21308545.000 in volume. The company executives have been quite successful with maneuvering the stock at opportune times to take advantage of all market conditions in October. The stock standard deviation of daily returns for 30 days (very short) investing horizon is currently 1.5978. The below-average Stock volatility is a good sign for a longer term investment options and for buy-and-hold investors. Facebook reports 8.2 b total debt. Facebook is selling for under 193.62. That is 1.03 percent increase. Today highest was 194.11. Facebook Earning Before Interest and Taxes EBIT is somewhat stable at the moment. Moreover, Facebook Revenues is decreasing over the last 4 years. The previous year value of Facebook Revenues was 62,600,000,000.
In closing, I belive Facebook is currently fairly valued. It Responds to market and projects very small probability of bankruptcy in the next two years. Our final buy/sell recommendation on the company is Strong Hold.
