Deep Analysis
Amcor’s quick ratio of 0.75x means the company holds only $0.75 in cash and other highly liquid assets for every $1 of short-term liabilities due within a year, indicating a limited cushion to cover immediate obligations.
This ratio sits below the consumer cyclical sector median of 0.81x and places Amcor in the 43rd percentile among peers, meaning it is less liquid than the majority of comparable firms. The quick ratio has been flat both year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter at +0.0%, yet the eight-quarter trend is decreasing — it dropped from 7.81x in the oldest period to the current 0.75x and then stayed unchanged for the last seven quarters. A low ratio combined with a declining trend signals elevated liquidity risk, as the company has less flexibility to meet short-term debts compared to its history and industry average. This metric introduces a cautionary element
