The share of US companies whose debt service costs exceed profits continues to rise
- Thread starter dealmaker
- Start date
Without more information this is a meaningless statistic.
A company with $100 million in debt service costs and $99 million in profits makes the list and so does a company with $100 million in debt service costs and no profits.
What percentage of these companies are debt ladened oil and gas companies? What is the industry breakdown?

Even this curve doesn't look that much of a linear, more of an exponential, while the dollar curve would look even worse :/
(Probably)
Wonder how those charts looks in other nations. Heard Australians are good at making zombies too, Japan as well (?)

Don't think @chigrl understood business or finance. It is not profits that service debt, it is cash flows stupid.
