Coverage ratios

Dec 31, 2024 Dec 31, 2023 Dec 31, 2022 Dec 31, 2021 Dec 31, 2020
Interest coverage 1.82 1.49 2.22 3.11 4.33

World Kinect Corporation's interest coverage has shown a declining trend over the past five years, decreasing from 4.33 in December 31, 2020, to 1.82 in December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company's ability to cover its interest expenses with its earnings has weakened over this period.

A higher interest coverage ratio is generally preferred as it suggests that the company is more capable of meeting its interest obligations. In contrast, a declining interest coverage ratio may raise concerns about the company's financial health and ability to service its debt.

The decreasing trend in World Kinect Corporation's interest coverage may indicate potential financial difficulties, as the company may be struggling to generate sufficient earnings to cover its interest expenses. Investors and creditors should closely monitor this metric to assess the company's financial stability and debt repayment capacity.
