BGC Partners Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0105 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0105 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on stockholder's equity (ROE) of 0.0629 %, meaning that it created $0.0629 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. BGC Partners' management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well BGC Partners manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company currently holds 1.05 B in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 1.63, which is about average as compared to similar companies. BGC Partners has a current ratio of 1.23, suggesting that it is in a questionable position to pay out its financial obligations when due. Debt can assist BGC Partners until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, BGC Partners' 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 BGC Partners sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for BGC to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about BGC Partners' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
