Interest coverage | 1.91 | 2.37 | 2.46 | 2.43 | 2.75 | 2.83 | 3.03 | 3.09 | 3.13 | 3.70 | 3.37 | 3.84 | 3.95 | 3.69 | 4.37 | 4.23 | 3.27 | 2.82 | 2.30 | 1.97 |
The interest coverage ratio provides valuable insight into Koppers Holdings Inc.'s ability to cover its interest expenses with its operating income. Looking at the trend over the past few years, we observe that the interest coverage ratio has shown fluctuations.
Starting at 1.97 on March 31, 2020, the ratio improved consistently through June 30, 2021, reaching a peak of 4.37. During this period, the company's operating income was sufficient to cover its interest expenses by a healthy margin, indicating strong financial health and lower risk of default.
However, from September 30, 2021, to December 31, 2023, we can see a declining trend in the interest coverage ratio, possibly signaling a period of increased financial risk for the company. The ratio decreased to 2.75 by December 31, 2023, from the peak of 4.37 in June 30, 2021.
Moreover, the interest coverage ratio continued to decline further into the next few periods, reaching a low of 1.91 by December 31, 2024. This decreasing trend could be a concern as it may indicate that Koppers Holdings Inc. is becoming less capable of servicing its interest obligations from its operating income, potentially leading to increased financial strain and risk.
Overall, a declining trend in the interest coverage ratio over time may require further analysis to understand the reasons behind the decrease and to assess the company's ability to manage its debt obligations effectively in the future.
