Deep Analysis
The quick ratio measures liquid assets—cash, marketable securities, and receivables—against current liabilities, so a 1.84x value means LRCX holds $1.84 of these liquid assets for every $1 of short-term obligations.
Compared to sector peers, the median is 0.64x, and LRCX sits at the 80th percentile, indicating much stronger short-term liquidity than most. The year-over-year change is N/A, but quarter-over-quarter the metric improved 8.9%, rising from 1.69x to 1.84x. This high level, combined with a recent uptick, implies reduced near-term solvency risk, though the limited two-quarter trend leaves limited certainty about sustainability. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: the strong quick ratio is a positive factor, but it does not alone elevate the stock beyond
