Safeway Management Efficiency

The company has Return on Asset of 0.02 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $0.02 of profit. This is way below average. Safeway's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Safeway manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has 3 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.55, which is OK given its current industry classification. Safeway has a current ratio of 2.0, which is typical for the industry and considered as normal. Debt can assist Safeway until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Safeway'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 Safeway sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Safeway to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Safeway's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
