Interest Coverage is a ratio that determines how easily a company can pay interest expenses on outstanding debt. It is calculated by dividing a company's Operating Income (EBIT) by its Interest Expense:

Semiconductor Manufacturing International's Interest Expense for the months ended in Dec. 2023 was HK$-491 Mil. Its Operating Income for the months ended in Dec. 2023 was HK$821 Mil. And its Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation for the quarter that ended in Dec. 2023 was HK$69,976 Mil.

Semiconductor Manufacturing International's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in Dec. 2023 is

Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Dec. 2023 )/Interest Expense (Q: Dec. 2023 )
=-1*820.599/-491.275
=1.67

The higher the ratio, the stronger the company's financial strength is.

2. Debt to revenue ratio. The lower, the better.

Semiconductor Manufacturing International's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in Dec. 2023 is

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Dec. 2023 ) / Revenue
=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(9751.496 + 69976.144) / 52428.72
=1.52
