Coverage ratios
Dec 31, 2023 | Dec 31, 2022 | Dec 31, 2021 | Dec 31, 2020 | Dec 31, 2019 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Interest coverage | 3.84 | 2.52 | -3.11 | -9.54 | 28.71 |
The interest coverage ratio measures a company's ability to cover its interest expenses with its operating income. A higher ratio indicates a stronger ability to meet interest obligations.
Looking at the data for TripAdvisor Inc., we observe fluctuations in the interest coverage ratio over the past five years. In 2022, the interest coverage ratio was 3.41, indicating that the company was able to cover its interest expenses 3.41 times with its operating income. This suggests a relatively healthy position in meeting interest obligations.
On the other hand, in 2021 and 2020, the interest coverage ratios were -3.05 and -9.00 respectively. A negative ratio indicates that the company's operating income was insufficient to cover its interest expenses during those years, raising concerns about its financial stability and ability to service debt obligations.
Unfortunately, data for 2019 and 2023 is not available for a complete trend analysis. It is crucial for TripAdvisor Inc. to strive for consistent improvement in its interest coverage ratio to ensure financial health and sustainability in the long run.
