PG Current Ratio Analysis

A current ratio of 0.68x means the company has $0.68 in current assets for every $1 of current liabilities, indicating it may struggle to cover short-term obligations if they all came due at once.

This value matches the sector median of 0.68x exactly, but the 0th percentile rank places it below all sector peers on this measure. The year-over-year change is not available, while the quarter-over-quarter change is -6.8%, showing a decline from the prior quarter's 0.73x; the 8-quarter trend is also not available. The combination of a sub-1.0 current ratio at the sector median, paired with a recent quarterly fall, points to liquidity tightness that is typical for the consumer defensive sector yet is now worsening slightly. This raises near-term risk from the liquidity angle without creating an outright alarm, since the sector as a whole operates at the same level. The metric supports the NEUTRAL verdict, as it neither breaks the sector pattern nor signals a clear deterioration beyond the quarterly dip.
