How important is At Home's Liquidity

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

Our Takeaway on At Home Investment

Although other entities in the specialty retail industry are either recovering or due for a correction, At Home may not be performing as strong as the other in terms of long-term growth potentials. To summarize, as of the 1st of December 2020, our research shows that At Home is a rather somewhat reliable investment opportunity with a below average probability of distress in the next two years. From a slightly different view, the entity currently appears to be overvalued. Our primary 30 days Buy-Hold-Sell recommendation on the firm is Sell.
