High Liner Foods has a current ratio of 2.42, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist High Liner until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, High Liner's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like High Liner Foods sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for High to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about High Liner's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
