Rio Tinto Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.1446 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.1446 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.3283 %, meaning that it generated $0.3283 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Rio Tinto's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Rio Tinto manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has accumulated 11.36 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.23, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Rio Tinto Group has a current ratio of 1.75, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist Rio Tinto until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Rio Tinto'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 Rio Tinto Group sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Rio to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Rio Tinto's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
