The company has Return on Asset of 9.89 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $9.89 of profit. This is considered to be average in the sector. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of 53.35 %, implying that it generated $53.35 on every 100 dollars invested. CDK Global's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well CDK Global manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has 1.82 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 4.38, demonstrating that the company may be unable to create cash to meet all of its financial commitments. CDK Global Holdings has a current ratio of 1.35, which is typical for the industry and considered as normal. Debt can assist CDK Global until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, CDK Global'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 CDK Global Holdings sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for CDK to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about CDK Global's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
