MFA Financial Management Efficiency

The company has Return on Asset of 2.87 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $2.87 of profit. This is way below average. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of 9.82 %, implying that it generated $9.82 on every 100 dollars invested. MFA Financial's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well MFA Financial manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
MFA Financial SR has 5.89 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 183.7, demonstrating that the company may be unable to create cash to meet all of its financial commitments. MFA Financial SR has a current ratio of 0.58, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Note however, debt could still be an excellent tool for MFA to invest in growth at high rates of return.
