Quick Ratio

The quick ratio measures a company’s ability to pay its short-term bills using only its most liquid assets, like cash and receivables, excluding inventory.

At 0.25x, STZ has only $0.25 in liquid assets for every $1.00 of current liabilities, indicating a tight liquidity position. This is well below the sector median of 0.72x, placing the stock in the 10th percentile among peers — meaning 90% of sector companies have a higher quick ratio. No trend data is available because the year-over-year change, quarter-over-quarter change, and last eight quarters are all marked N/A, with only the single current value of 0.25x reported. The combination of a very low quick ratio and the absence of any trend leaves no indication of improvement or deterioration, creating a risk that the company may struggle to cover near-term obligations. Given that this metric is a clear weakness, it contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict, which implies no strong negative or positive signal.
