1. The debt burden that the company has as measured by its Interest Coverage (current year). The higher, the better.

Note: If both Interest Expense and Interest Income are empty, while Net Interest Income is negative, then use Net Interest Income as Interest Expense.

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:

Nexchip Semiconductor's Interest Expense for the months ended in Mar. 2024 was ¥-138 Mil. Its Operating Income for the months ended in Mar. 2024 was ¥177 Mil. And its Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2024 was ¥17,705 Mil.

Nexchip Semiconductor's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2024 is

Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Mar. 2024 )/Interest Expense (Q: Mar. 2024 )
=-1*177.167/-138.467
=1.28

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

Warning Sign:

Ben Graham prefers companies' interest coverage to be at least 5. Nexchip Semiconductor Corp interest coverage is 1.4, which is low.

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

Nexchip Semiconductor's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2024 is

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Mar. 2024 ) / Revenue
=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(2308.965 + 17704.845) / 8911.572
=2.25
