Solvency and debt-coverage ratios — lower is generally safer
Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. carries a Debt/EBITDA ratio of 0.0x, which is very conservative (100% below the sector average of 4.3x). The company holds a net cash position — cash of $5.0B exceeds total debt of $19M, providing substantial financial flexibility for buybacks, acquisitions, or weathering downturns. Interest coverage of just 2.1x is concerning — the company has limited headroom to absorb earnings volatility before struggling with debt service.
