18. Liquidity
17
Reduced current ratio YoY was mainly due to
lower trade receivables, higher short-term
loans, and higher liabilities under financial
lease, while higher inventories resulted in
decreased quick ratio.
Improved cash cycle days YoY was due to
shortened collection days and inventory days,
in spite of reduced payment days.
Higher IBD/E from the end of 2015 was due
to higher short-tem loans from financial
institutions and increased liabilities under
financial lease agreements.
Lower D/E ratio was resulted from reduced
trade payables while the Company’s retained
earnings increased following incurring profits.
