Mast Therapeutics Management Efficiency

Mast Therapeutics' management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Mast Therapeutics manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company currently holds 14.74 M in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 1.08, which is about average as compared to similar companies. Mast Therapeutics has a current ratio of 1.32, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist Mast Therapeutics until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Mast Therapeutics' 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 Mast Therapeutics sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Mast to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Mast Therapeutics' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
