Ag Growth's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Ag Growth manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. At this time, Ag Growth's Return On Tangible Assets are very stable compared to the past year. As of the 8th of December 2024, Return On Assets is likely to grow to 0.05, while Return On Capital Employed is likely to drop 0.13. At this time, Ag Growth's Return On Assets are very stable compared to the past year.
Ag Growth International has accumulated 906.95 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 2.73, implying the company greatly relies on financing operations through barrowing. Ag Growth International has a current ratio of 1.69, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist Ag Growth until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Ag Growth's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Ag Growth International sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for AFN to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Ag Growth's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

AFN Stock Performance Indicators

The ability to make a profit is the ultimate goal of any investor. But to identify the right stock is not an easy task. Is Ag Growth a good investment?

If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation.

The correlation of Ag Growth is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as Ag Growth moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Ag Growth International moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the equities are not correlated; they are entirely random. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.
Correlation analysis and pair trading evaluation for Ag Growth can also be used as hedging techniques within a particular sector or industry or even over random equities to generate a better risk-adjusted return on your portfolios.
