Interest coverage 1.25 1.08 1.17 1.61 2.89 5.41 9.18 14.08 21.09 31.54 39.31 45.26 45.83 46.68 52.39 42.53 33.11 23.76 16.42 15.23

Knight Transportation Inc's interest coverage ratio has shown a steady and strong improvement over the last few years. Starting from a robust level of 15.23 in March 2020, the company's interest coverage ratio increased consistently, reaching a peak of 52.39 in June 2021. This indicates the company's ability to comfortably meet its interest obligations with its earnings.

However, the interest coverage ratio started declining from the peak in September 2021, possibly indicating changes in the company's financial structure or profitability. Despite the decrease, the ratio remained relatively healthy, staying above 20 until December 2022. The interest coverage ratio then showed a more significant decline, dropping below 10 in March 2023, which could suggest potential challenges in covering interest expenses with operating income.

As of December 31, 2024, Knight Transportation Inc's interest coverage ratio stands at 1.25, reflecting a significant decline compared to the peak levels observed earlier. This low ratio may raise concerns about the company's ability to cover its interest payments adequately with its operating earnings. Further analysis is needed to understand the reasons behind this downward trend and assess the company's overall financial health.
