BRF SA Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0179 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0179 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of (0.1154) %, meaning that it generated substantial loss on money invested by shareholders. BRF SA's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well BRF SA manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has accumulated 24.26 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 3.17, implying the company greatly relies on financing operations through barrowing. BRF SA has a current ratio of 1.27, suggesting that it is in a questionable position to pay out its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist BRF SA until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, BRF SA'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 BRF SA sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for BRF to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about BRF SA's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
