Recent Ratings for SK hynix (SKHY)
We measure the health of a company based on how profitable they are and their ability to cover both their short-term and long-term debts. The key indicators that we use are the Operating Margin, Quick Ratio, and Debt-to-Equity ratio relative to the companies peers
Operational Margin 0.7153
The operating margin measures how much profit a company makes after it spends money on wages, materials or other administrative expenses but before interest and taxes. It is a good representation of how efficiently a company is able to generate profit from its core operations.
Quick Ratio 2.1799
The quick ratio measures how much of a company's debt, that is due in less than 1 year, can be covered using its cash equivalents, marketable securities, and money that is currently owed to them (accounts receivables).
A company with a quick ratio of less than 1.00 does not, in many cases, have the capital on hand to meet its short-term obligations if they were all due at once, while a quick ratio greater than one indicates the company has the financial resources to remain solvent in the short term.
Debt-to-Equity 0.3558
Debt-to-equity is calculated by dividing a company's total liabilities by its shareholders equity. It is a measure of the degree to which a company is financing its operations through debt versus wholly owned funds. Generally speaking, a D/E ratio below 1.0 would be seen as relatively safe, whereas ratios of 2.0 or higher would be considered risky.
Based on our data, SKHY's options trades have recently carried more negative sentiment than positive.
