Updated 1155h ago·SEC filings & market data

Key Takeaway

The quick ratio measures a company’s most liquid assets—cash, marketable securities, and receivables—against its current liabilities, so NEE’s 0.26x means it holds $0.26 of these liquid assets for every $1 of short-term obligations.

Deep Analysis

That is far below the sector median of 0.72x, placing NEE at the 10th percentile among peers, indicating a much thinner short-term liquidity cushion. The year-over-year change is N/A, but quarter-over-quarter the ratio rose 8.3%, from 0.24x to 0.26x, with no trend data for the last 8 quarters available. The combination of a very low level with a small recent improvement points to ongoing short-term liquidity risk, yet the QoQ uptick offers a limited sign of stabilization. This metric contradicts a bullish stance and supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict because the weak level is partially offset by the positive quarterly movement.
