= $2,733,000K ÷ $3,274,000K
= 0.83

The current ratio of Hyatt Hotels Corporation has fluctuated over the past few years. It improved steadily from June 30, 2020, to September 30, 2021, peaking at 3.70, indicating a strong ability to cover its short-term obligations with current assets. However, there was a significant decline in the ratio from December 31, 2021, to December 31, 2024, reaching 0.83. This suggests a potential concern regarding the company's liquidity position and its ability to meet short-term obligations with available current assets. Management may need to closely monitor the current assets and liabilities to ensure adequate liquidity levels in the future.
