The interest coverage ratio of Public Service Enterprise Group Inc has shown fluctuations over the observed time period. The ratio is calculated by dividing the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by the interest expense. A higher ratio indicates the company is more capable of meeting its interest obligations.
From December 2019 to March 2021, the interest coverage ratio improved steadily, peaking at 5.34 in March 2021, indicating a strong ability to cover interest payments. However, in the following quarters, the ratio declined, dropping to -1.00 in September 2021 and falling further to -2.57 in March 2022, indicating that the company's earnings were insufficient to cover its interest expenses during these periods.
The ratio improved thereafter, reaching 5.80 in June 2023, signaling a recovery in the company's ability to cover interest costs. Subsequently, from September 2023 to December 2024, the ratio remained relatively stable, ranging between 3.38 and 5.12, indicating a moderate to strong ability to meet interest payments.
