Coverage ratios

Dec 31, 2024 Dec 31, 2023 Dec 31, 2022 Dec 31, 2021 Dec 31, 2020
Interest coverage -0.04 0.71 1.08 6.75 2.21

The interest coverage ratio for Owens & Minor Inc has shown fluctuating trends over the past five years. As of December 31, 2020, the interest coverage ratio was 2.21, indicating that the company generated operating income 2.21 times greater than its interest expenses, suggesting a moderate ability to meet interest obligations.

By December 31, 2021, the interest coverage ratio improved significantly to 6.75, signaling a stronger ability to cover interest payments with operating income. This increase may reflect improved operational performance or lower interest expenses.

However, the interest coverage ratio dropped sharply to 1.08 by December 31, 2022, suggesting a reduced ability to cover interest payments using operating income. This decline might raise concerns about the company's financial health and ability to meet its debt obligations.

The trend worsened further as of December 31, 2023, with the interest coverage ratio plummeting to 0.71. This indicates that the company's operating income was insufficient to cover its interest expenses, raising significant red flags regarding its financial stability and ability to service debt.

Moreover, the interest coverage ratio turned negative, reaching -0.04 by December 31, 2024. A negative interest coverage ratio suggests severe financial distress, where the company's operating income is insufficient to cover its interest obligations. This situation may lead to potential default on debt payments.

In summary, Owens & Minor Inc's interest coverage ratio has been inconsistent and declined to alarming levels in recent years, indicating potential financial challenges and increasing risk of default on debt payments.
