Pandora Media Management Efficiency

Pandora Media's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Pandora Media manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has accumulated 255.27 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 45.1, indicating that it may be unable to produce cash to meet its debt commitments. Pandora Media has a current ratio of 2.46, implying that it is liquid and has the capability to pay out its interest payments when they become due. Debt can assist Pandora Media until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Pandora Media'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 Pandora Media sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Pandora to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Pandora Media's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
