MTUS Leverage & Debt
Solvency and debt-coverage ratios — lower is generally safer
Metallus Inc. carries a Debt/EBITDA ratio of 0.3x, which is very conservative (89% below the sector average of 2.4x). The company holds a net cash position — cash of $157M exceeds total debt of $15M, 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.
