Despite its high net debt to equity ratio of 45.1%, the company maintains good short-term financial health with assets exceeding liabilities and interest payments well covered by EBIT at a 5.1x coverage ratio. However, negative operating cash flow indicates challenges in covering debt effectively. The company’s Price-To-Earnings ratio suggests it is trading at a good value compared to peers, though its return on equity remains low at 9.6%.
