0.45 / 10
Underperform

Ingles Markets' fundamentals receive a weak evaluation, scoring only 0.5/10. Key concerns include a negative year-over-year profit growth of -21.19%, indicating declining earnings momentum. Although the EBIT margin of 2.43% and interest-coverage ratio of 6.58 suggest some operational efficiency and debt-service capacity, these are offset by a high asset-liability ratio of 37.03% and a cash-flow-to-liabilities ratio of 0.16, which point to leverage and liquidity risks. The current-assets turnover ratio of 5.61 is relatively healthy but insufficient to counterbalance other weaknesses. The overall view is 'guarded,' underscoring the need for caution when assessing the company's financial health.
