Data Storage carries a low D/E ratio of 0.19, meaning only $0.19 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 100/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.
With a current ratio of 4.35, Data Storage holds $4.35 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 100/100.
