The company currently holds 3.58
M in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 0.14, which may suggest Beyondspring is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Beyondspring has a current ratio of 4.86, suggesting that it is liquid enough and is able to pay its financial obligations when due. Debt can assist Beyondspring until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Beyondspring'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 Beyondspring sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Beyondspring to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Beyondspring's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
BeyondSpring financial leverage ratio helps determine the effect of debt on the overall profitability of the company. It measures the total debt position of BeyondSpring, including all of BeyondSpring's outstanding debt obligations, and compares it with the equity. In simple terms, the high financial leverage means the cost of production, together with running the business day-to-day, is high, whereas, lower financial leverage implies lower fixed cost investment in the business and generally considered by investors to be a good sign. So if creditors own a majority of BeyondSpring assets, the company is considered highly leveraged. Understanding the
composition and structure of overall BeyondSpring debt and outstanding corporate bonds gives a good idea of
how risky the capital structure of a business is and if it is worth investing in it. Please read more on our

How important is BeyondSpring's Liquidity
BeyondSpring
financial leverage refers to using borrowed capital as a funding source to finance BeyondSpring ongoing operations. It is usually used to expand the firm's asset base and generate returns on borrowed capital. BeyondSpring financial leverage is typically calculated by taking the company's all interest-bearing debt and dividing it by total capital. So the higher the debt-to-capital ratio (i.e., financial leverage), the riskier the company. Financial leverage can amplify the potential profits to BeyondSpring's owners, but it also increases the potential losses and risk of financial distress, including bankruptcy, if the firm cannot cover its debt costs. The degree of BeyondSpring's financial leverage can be measured in several ways, including by ratios such as the debt-to-equity ratio (total debt / total equity), equity multiplier (total assets / total equity), or the debt ratio (total debt / total assets).
