Quick Ratio

Catalyst Pharmaceuticals' quick ratio of 6.70x means the company has $6.70 in highly liquid assets (like cash and receivables) for every $1 of short-term liabilities, indicating a strong ability to cover immediate obligations.

This far exceeds the healthcare sector median of 1.46x, placing Catalyst in the 90th percentile among sector peers. The year-over-year change and quarter-over-quarter change are both listed as N/A, and no trend data is available for the last eight quarters, so no directional shift can be assessed. With a very high level but no trend information, the metric suggests low short-term liquidity risk but provides no insight into whether that strength is improving or eroding. This high quick ratio supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: while strong liquidity is a positive factor, the lack of trend data and the neutral rating imply that other metrics or broader considerations balance this strength.
