Deep Analysis

The current ratio measures current assets divided by current liabilities, showing how easily a company can cover obligations due within a year.

At 0.53x, MAR holds only 53 cents in current assets for every dollar of current liabilities. That is far below the sector median of 1.25x, placing the company in the 8th percentile among peers. The year-over-year change is N/A, but the quarter-over-quarter change is +15.2%, with the most recent readings at 0.53x versus 0.46x prior; no longer trend is available. The low level points to liquidity risk, while the recent uptick offers a modest sign of improvement. This metric supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict, as the current ratio remains weak even with the quarterly gain.
