The current ratio divides current assets by current liabilities — a basic liquidity check on whether a company has enough short-term resources to cover what it owes in the next twelve months.
The formula
Current AssetsCurrent Liabilities
= Current Ratio
Why it matters
- —Below 1.0× means short-term liabilities exceed short-term assets — a potential liquidity warning sign.
- —Very high ratios aren't necessarily good — they can mean cash sitting idle instead of being deployed.
- —Best read alongside the cash position and debt maturity schedule, not in isolation.
How to read it
| < 1.0× | Liabilities exceed assets due within a year — liquidity risk |
| 1.0×–2.0× | Healthy working-capital buffer |
| > 3× | Very conservative, or cash sitting idle |
