St Jude Management Efficiency

St Jude's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well St Jude manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has 6.39 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 1.29, which is OK given its current industry classification. St Jude Medical has a current ratio of 1.89, which is typical for the industry and considered as normal. Debt can assist St Jude until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, St Jude'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 St Jude Medical sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for STJ to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about St Jude's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
