Alleghany Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset of 1.54 % which means that for every 100 dollars spent on assets, it generated a profit of $1.54. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 5.86 %, implying that it made 5.86 on every $100 invested by shareholders. Alleghany's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Alleghany manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has accumulated 2.34 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.28, which may indicate that the company is not taking enough advantage of borrowing. Alleghany has a current ratio of 1.62, which is considered satisfactory as compared to similar companies. Debt can assist Alleghany until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Alleghany'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 Alleghany sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Alleghany to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Alleghany's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
