OceanaGold's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well OceanaGold manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. As of the 23rd of April 2024, Return On Tangible Assets is likely to grow to 0.04. Also, Return On Capital Employed is likely to grow to 0.09. At this time, OceanaGold's Non Currrent Assets Other are very stable compared to the past year. As of the 23rd of April 2024, Other Assets is likely to grow to about 282.9 M, while Total Assets are likely to drop about 1.5 B.
The company has accumulated 34.8 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.19, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. OceanaGold has a current ratio of 1.64, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist OceanaGold until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, OceanaGold'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 OceanaGold sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for OceanaGold to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about OceanaGold's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

Investors typically determine if OceanaGold is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections.
