The current ratio of Exelixis Inc has experienced a declining trend over the past five years. Starting at a robust 7.06 in December 31, 2020, the ratio has decreased to 3.63 as of December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company's current assets are becoming less sufficient to cover its current liabilities, raising concerns about its short-term liquidity position. Further monitoring of Exelixis Inc's ability to meet its short-term obligations may be prudent as the current ratio continues to decrease.
