Elizabeth Arden Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of (10.5068) % which means that it has lost $10.5068 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on stockholder's equity (ROE) of (58.0377) %, meaning that it created substantial loss on money invested by shareholders. Elizabeth Arden's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Elizabeth Arden manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company currently holds 421.79 M in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 3.76, implying the company greatly relies on financing operations through barrowing. Elizabeth Arden has a current ratio of 1.46, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist Elizabeth Arden until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Elizabeth Arden'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 Elizabeth Arden sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Elizabeth to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Elizabeth Arden's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
