Current Ratio

Raymond James Financial's current ratio of 0.37x means the company has only $0.37 in current assets for every $1.00 of short-term liabilities, indicating a low ability to cover immediate obligations if they all came due.

Among Financial Services peers, this ratio sits well below the sector median of 0.79x and places the company in the 31st percentile, meaning roughly 69% of peers have higher liquidity. The metric lacks trend data because year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter changes are both reported as "N/A," so no direction of improvement or deterioration can be assessed. The combination of a low current ratio relative to peers and the absence of trend information creates uncertainty about near-term liquidity risk, but does not confirm a current cash crisis because financial firms often operate with low current ratios due to their business models. This metric contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict in the sense that the very low ratio suggests a higher-than-average liquidity risk, but the lack of trend data prevents a definitive downgrade.
