BKNG Current Ratio Analysis

The current ratio of 1.06x means that for every $1 of short-term debt due within the next year, the company holds $1.06 in liquid assets like cash, receivables, and inventory, indicating a modest ability to cover near-term obligations.

This sits below the sector median of 1.41x and places the company at the 22nd percentile among Consumer Cyclical peers, meaning most competitors have a stronger liquidity buffer. The trend data is not available, with both the year-over-year change and quarter-over-quarter change reported as N/A, so there is no observable direction from the last eight quarters. Without a trend, the investment implication rests entirely on the level: a ratio above 1.0x suggests no immediate solvency risk, but the wide gap below the median flags a thinner margin of safety. This metric neither strengthens nor weakens the overall NEUTRAL verdict — it aligns with a view that the stock carries average risk, given adequate but unspectacular liquidity.
