Most preferred financial ratiosTables
1 and 2 show the most preferred financial ratios used by equity analysts. This differs fromwhat a typical financial textbook presents, especially pertaining to accounting ratios. Accountingratios are usually classified in textbooks as profitability and margin ratios, asset turnover orefficiency ratios, liquidity, and leverage or management ratios. Equity analysts in this sample donot use liquidity or asset turnover ratios; instead, they concentrate on profitability and margins,and leverage. Probably equity analysts use cash flow related ratios as better substitutes for turnoverand liquidity ratios.Net debt to EBITDA and net debt to equity are the debt management ratios preferred byanalysts. Textbooks, in general, do not mention net debt (defined as debt minus cash and cashequivalents), or net debt to EBITDA. This may be because net debt is used more by practitionersthan by academics and instructors according to Bates, Kahle, & Stulz (1999)
