Prime Dividend Corp has a current ratio of 1.39, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist Prime Dividend until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Prime Dividend'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 Prime Dividend Corp sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Prime to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Prime Dividend's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
