| Interest coverage | 12.28 | 12.25 | 12.30 | 12.67 | 12.78 | 12.53 | 14.09 | 18.15 | 25.07 | 38.42 | 57.18 | 83.37 | 96.27 | 78.52 | 72.89 | 54.93 | 38.11 | 29.08 | 20.85 | 15.74 |
Based on the provided data, Pool Corporation's interest coverage ratio has shown a generally positive trend from March 31, 2020, to December 31, 2021, with a noticeable increase in the ratio over this period. The interest coverage ratio has increased consistently, indicating that Pool Corporation's ability to meet its interest obligations has improved significantly during this period.
The interest coverage ratio stood at 15.74 on March 31, 2020, and showed a consistent upward trend, reaching its peak at 96.27 on December 31, 2021. This upward trend suggests that the company's earnings are more than sufficient to cover its interest expenses comfortably. A higher interest coverage ratio indicates a stronger ability to meet interest payments on outstanding debt and reflects a lower risk of default.
However, starting from March 31, 2022, the interest coverage ratio began to decline, reaching 12.28 by December 31, 2024. This decline could potentially indicate a decrease in earnings relative to interest expenses or an increase in debt levels. A decreasing interest coverage ratio may raise concerns about the company's ability to handle its debt obligations, as lower ratios could signal financial stress.
It is important for investors and stakeholders to monitor Pool Corporation's interest coverage ratio closely in future periods to assess the company's financial health and its ability to continue meeting its interest obligations. A stable or increasing interest coverage ratio would be favorable, indicating a solid financial position and a lower risk of financial distress.
