Solvency and debt-coverage ratios — lower is generally safer
Arko Corp. carries a Debt/EBITDA ratio of 16.7x, which is highly leveraged (280% above the sector average of 4.4x). Net debt stands at $3.6B ($4.0B total debt minus $305M cash). Interest coverage of just 1.3x is concerning — the company has limited headroom to absorb earnings volatility before struggling with debt service.
