The current ratio of Planet Fitness Inc has exhibited a declining trend over the past few years, moving from 5.07 in December 2020 to 2.08 in December 2024. This ratio indicates a company's ability to cover its short-term obligations with its current assets. A higher current ratio is generally considered more favorable as it suggests a stronger ability to meet short-term liabilities.

While Planet Fitness Inc's current ratio remains above 1, signaling that the company has sufficient current assets to cover its short-term liabilities, the decreasing trend raises some concerns about its liquidity position. A ratio of 2.08 as of December 2024 suggests the company may have slightly less liquidity than in previous years, which could potentially impact its ability to address short-term financial obligations.

It is important for investors and analysts to monitor trends in the current ratio to assess a company's liquidity and ability to manage short-term financial pressures effectively.
