About

Frontier Ceramics Ltd has a liquidity position that is below the typical safety threshold, with a current ratio of 0.68, indicating that the company's current assets are insufficient to cover its current liabilities. The company's liquidity_fpt metric shows a net cash position that is negative after subtracting total debt, which raises concerns about its short-term financial flexibility. Profitability metrics for Frontier Ceramics Ltd are negative, with a return on equity of -5.94% and a return on assets of -2.41%. These figures are below the industry median for the Construction Supplies & Fixtures sector, suggesting that the company is underperforming in terms of capital efficiency and asset utilization.
