Nextera Energy Inc's current ratio has shown some variation over the five-year period from December 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024. The current ratio, which measures the company's ability to cover its short-term liabilities with its short-term assets, increased from 0.47 in 2020 to 0.53 in 2021, indicating a slight improvement in liquidity. However, the ratio dipped to 0.51 in 2022, before rising again to 0.55 in 2023, suggesting better short-term financial health. Nevertheless, by the end of 2024, the current ratio dropped back to 0.47, potentially signaling a decreased ability to meet short-term obligations with current assets. Overall, while there have been fluctuations in Nextera Energy Inc's current ratio over the period, the company may need to manage its short-term liquidity more effectively to ensure financial stability.
