2.2 Solvency

The Debt to FCF ratio of MCB is 1.29, which is an excellent value as it means it would take MCB, only 1.29 years of fcf income to pay off all of its debts.
Looking at the Debt to FCF ratio, with a value of 1.29, MCB is in the better half of the industry, outperforming 66.58% of the companies in the same industry.
MCB has a Debt/Equity ratio of 0.22. This is a healthy value indicating a solid balance between debt and equity.
MCB has a worse Debt to Equity ratio (0.22) than 62.53% of its industry peers.
Although MCB does not score too well on debt/equity it has very limited outstanding debt, which is well covered by the FCF. We will not put too much weight on the debt/equity number as it may be because of low equity, which could be a consequence of a share buyback program for instance. This needs to be investigated.
