Laredo Petroleum Management Efficiency

The company has Return on Asset of 0.2162 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $0.2162 of profit. This is way below average. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of 1.1914 %, implying that it generated $1.1914 on every 100 dollars invested. Laredo Petroleum's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Laredo Petroleum manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has 1.43 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 1.9, which is OK given its current industry classification. Laredo Petroleum Holdings has a current ratio of 0.46, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Laredo Petroleum until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Laredo Petroleum'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 Laredo Petroleum Holdings sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Laredo to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Laredo Petroleum's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
