Revvity Inc.'s interest coverage ratio has shown fluctuations over the periods provided in the data. The interest coverage ratio measures the company's ability to cover its interest expenses with its operating income.

In April 2020, the interest coverage ratio was 4.82, indicating that the company generated enough operating income to cover its interest expenses nearly 5 times. Over the following quarters, the ratio improved significantly, reaching a peak of 28.19 in June 2021, showing a strong ability to meet its interest obligations.

However, starting from September 2021, the interest coverage ratio began to decline, dropping to 7.30 by December 2022. This downward trend continued, with the ratio falling to 2.60 in March 2024, suggesting a potential strain on the company's ability to cover its interest payments with operating income.

It is worth noting that a higher interest coverage ratio is generally preferred as it indicates a stronger financial position and lower risk of default on debt obligations. The declining trend in Revvity Inc.'s interest coverage ratio towards the latter periods underscores the importance of monitoring the company's ability to meet its interest obligations from its operational earnings.
