Leverage
70

United Airlines Holdings Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 1.12, meaning only $1.12 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 70/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity
6

Altman Z-Score Safe
346739.76

United Airlines Holdings Inc scores 346739.76, well above the 2.99 safe threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($35.3B) relative to total liabilities ($61K). This indicates low bankruptcy risk based on profitability, leverage, and asset efficiency.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

Interest Coverage Adequate
3.4x

United Airlines Holdings Inc earns $3.4 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($5K vs $1K). This adequate coverage means the company can meet its interest obligations, but has limited cushion if earnings fall.
