Cubic has a beta of 0.6151. Let's try to break down what Cubic's beta means in this case. Cubic returns are very sensitive to returns on the market. As the market goes up or down, Cubic is expected to follow. The beta indicator helps investors understand whether Cubic moves in the same direction as the rest of the market, and how volatile (i.e., risky) it is compared to the market (i.e., selected benchmark). In other words, if Cubic deviates very little from the market, it does not add much risk to the portfolio, but it also doesn't increase the expected returns.

How important is Cubic's Liquidity

Cubic financial leverage refers to using borrowed capital as a funding source to finance Cubic ongoing operations. It is usually used to expand the firm's asset base and generate returns on borrowed capital. Cubic financial leverage is typically calculated by taking the company's all interest-bearing debt and dividing it by total capital. So the higher the debt-to-capital ratio (i.e., financial leverage), the riskier the company. Financial leverage can amplify the potential profits to Cubic's owners, but it also increases the potential losses and risk of financial distress, including bankruptcy, if the firm cannot cover its debt costs. The degree of Cubic's financial leverage can be measured in several ways, including by ratios such as the debt-to-equity ratio (total debt / total equity), equity multiplier (total assets / total equity), or the debt ratio (total debt / total assets). Please check the breakdown between Cubic's total debt and its cash.

Our Conclusion on Cubic

Whereas some firms under the aerospace & defense industry are still a bit expensive, Cubic may offer a potential longer-term growth to investors. With a less-than optimistic outlook for your 30 days horizon, it may be a good time to exit some or all of your Cubic holdings as it seems the potential growth was already fully factored into the current price.
