Exelon Corp.'s liquidity ratios have fluctuated over the past eight quarters. The current ratio, which measures the company's ability to cover short-term obligations with its current assets, has shown a declining trend from Q1 2022 to Q4 2023. This indicates a potential weakening in Exelon's short-term liquidity position.

The quick ratio, a more stringent measure of liquidity as it excludes inventory from current assets, has followed a similar downward trend over the same period. This suggests that Exelon may have difficulty meeting its short-term obligations without relying on inventory, which may not be easily convertible to cash.

Lastly, the cash ratio, which represents the proportion of current liabilities that can be covered by cash and cash equivalents, has also displayed a downward trend. This indicates that Exelon's ability to cover its short-term liabilities solely with cash has weakened over the quarters.

Overall, based on these liquidity ratios, Exelon Corp. appears to be facing challenges in maintaining a strong liquidity position in the short term. It may be prudent for the company to reassess its current asset management and cash flow strategies to improve its liquidity position.
