Spark Networks Management Efficiency

The company has Return on Asset of 0.0498 % which means that on every $100 spent on assets, it made $0.0498 of profit. This is way below average. In the same way, it shows a return on shareholders' equity (ROE) of (5.5824) %, meaning that it generated no profit with money invested by stockholders. Spark Networks' management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Spark Networks manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has 96.23 M in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 4.98, demonstrating that the company may be unable to create cash to meet all of its financial commitments. Spark Networks SE has a current ratio of 0.33, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Spark Networks until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Spark Networks' 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 Spark Networks SE sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Spark to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Spark Networks' use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
