SG Quick Ratio Analysis

A quick ratio of 1.30x means the company has $1.30 in liquid assets—cash, marketable securities, and receivables—for every $1 of current liabilities due within a year, indicating it can cover short-term obligations without selling inventory.

This is well above the sector median of 0.72x, placing the company in the 78th percentile among peers, so liquidity is stronger than most. The year-over-year change is not available, but the quarter-over-quarter drop is -13.3%, with the ratio falling from 1.50x to 1.30x. The high level still offers a safety cushion, but the recent decline signals that liquidity is tightening, which tempers the otherwise favorable position. Given the cautious overall stance, this metric partially supports the verdict by showing strength that reduces immediate default risk, yet the downward trend adds a reason for wariness.
