Digirad has a beta of 1.0053. Let's try to break down what Digirad's beta means in this case. As returns on the market increase, Digirad returns are expected to increase less than the market. However, during the bear market, the loss on holding Digirad will be expected to be smaller as well. The beta indicator helps investors understand whether Digirad 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 Digirad 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 Star Equity's Liquidity

Star Equity financial leverage refers to using borrowed capital as a funding source to finance Star Equity Holdings ongoing operations. It is usually used to expand the firm's asset base and generate returns on borrowed capital. Star Equity 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 Star Equity'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 Star Equity'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 Star Equity's total debt and its cash.
