Does Vista Outdoor (NYSE:VSTO) Have A Healthy Balance Sheet?
Does Vista Outdoor (NYSE:VSTO) Have A Healthy Balance Sheet?
The external fund manager backed by Berkshire Hathaway's Charlie Munger, Li Lu, makes no bones about it when he says 'The biggest investment risk is not the volatility of prices, but whether you will suffer a permanent loss of capital.' So it might be obvious that you need to consider debt, when you think about how risky any given stock is, because too much debt can sink a company. Importantly, Vista Outdoor Inc. (NYSE:VSTO) does carry debt. But is this debt a concern to shareholders?
Why Does Debt Bring Risk?
Debt assists a business until the business has trouble paying it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. Part and parcel of capitalism is the process of 'creative destruction' where failed businesses are mercilessly liquidated by their bankers. While that is not too common, we often do see indebted companies permanently diluting shareholders because lenders force them to raise capital at a distressed price. Of course, the upside of debt is that it often represents cheap capital, especially when it replaces dilution in a company with the ability to reinvest at high rates of return. The first step when considering a company's debt levels is to consider its cash and debt together.

How Much Debt Does Vista Outdoor Carry?
The image below, which you can click on for greater detail, shows that at June 2022 Vista Outdoor had debt of US$586.3m, up from US$495.7m in one year. However, it also had US$36.6m in cash, and so its net debt is US$549.6m.
NYSE:VSTO Debt to Equity History September 28th 2022How Healthy Is Vista Outdoor's Balance Sheet?
The latest balance sheet data shows that Vista Outdoor had liabilities of US$420.4m due within a year, and liabilities of US$787.3m falling due after that. Offsetting this, it had US$36.6m in cash and US$436.4m in receivables that were due within 12 months. So its liabilities outweigh the sum of its cash and (near-term) receivables by US$734.8m.
This deficit isn't so bad because Vista Outdoor is worth US$1.37b, and thus could probably raise enough capital to shore up its balance sheet, if the need arose. But we definitely want to keep our eyes open to indications that its debt is bringing too much risk.
We measure a company's debt load relative to its earnings power by looking at its net debt divided by its earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and by calculating how easily its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) cover its interest expense (interest cover). The advantage of this approach is that we take into account both the absolute quantum of debt (with net debt to EBITDA) and the actual interest expenses associated with that debt (with its interest cover ratio).
Vista Outdoor has a low net debt to EBITDA ratio of only 0.73. And its EBIT easily covers its interest expense, being 26.1 times the size. So we're pretty relaxed about its super-conservative use of debt. On top of that, Vista Outdoor grew its EBIT by 84% over the last twelve months, and that growth will make it easier to handle its debt. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if Vista Outdoor can strengthen its balance sheet over time. So if you're focused on the future you can check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
But our final consideration is also important, because a company cannot pay debt with paper profits; it needs cold hard cash. So the logical step is to look at the proportion of that EBIT that is matched by actual free cash flow. During the last three years, Vista Outdoor produced sturdy free cash flow equating to 70% of its EBIT, about what we'd expect. This cold hard cash means it can reduce its debt when it wants to.
Our View
The good news is that Vista Outdoor's demonstrated ability to cover its interest expense with its EBIT delights us like a fluffy puppy does a toddler. But, on a more sombre note, we are a little concerned by its level of total liabilities. Zooming out, Vista Outdoor seems to use debt quite reasonably; and that gets the nod from us. After all, sensible leverage can boost returns on equity. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet - far from it. Be aware that Vista Outdoor is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , and 1 of those is significant...
At the end of the day, it's often better to focus on companies that are free from net debt. You can access our special list of such companies (all with a track record of profit growth). It's free.

伯克希爾哈撒韋的外部基金經理理想汽車·盧直言不諱地説,最大的投資風險不是價格的波動,而是你是否會遭受永久性的資本損失。因此,當你考慮到任何一隻股票的風險有多大時,你需要考慮債務可能是顯而易見的,因為太多的債務可能會讓一家公司倒閉。重要的是Vista户外公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:VSTO)確實揹負着債務。但這筆債務對股東來説是一個擔憂嗎?
為什麼債務會帶來風險?
債務幫助企業,直到企業難以償還債務,無論是用新資本還是用自由現金流。資本主義的一部分是“創造性破壞”的過程,破產的企業被銀行家無情地清算。儘管這並不常見,但我們確實經常看到負債累累的公司永久性地稀釋股東的權益,因為貸款人迫使他們以令人沮喪的價格籌集資金。當然,債務的好處是,它往往代表着廉價資本,特別是當它用能夠以高回報率進行再投資的能力取代公司的稀釋時。在考慮一家公司的債務水平時,第一步是同時考慮其現金和債務。

Vista Outdoor揹負着多少債務?
下圖顯示,截至2022年6月,Vista Outdoor的債務為5.863億美元,高於一年內的4.957億美元。然而,它也有3660萬美元的現金,因此它的淨債務為5.496億美元。
紐約證券交易所:VSTO債轉股歷史2022年9月28日Vista Outdoor的資產負債表有多健康?
最新的資產負債表數據顯示,Vista Outdoor有4.204億美元的債務在一年內到期,7.873億美元的債務在一年後到期。作為抵消,它有3660萬美元的現金和4.364億美元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,它的負債比現金和(近期)應收賬款之和高出7.348億美元。
這一赤字並不是那麼糟糕,因為Vista Outdoor價值13.7億美元,因此如果需要的話,可能會籌集到足夠的資本來支撐其資產負債表。但我們肯定希望密切關注其債務帶來太大風險的跡象。
我們通過查看公司的淨債務除以利息、税項、折舊和攤銷前收益(EBITDA),並計算其息税前收益(EBIT)覆蓋利息支出(利息覆蓋)的容易程度,來衡量公司的債務負擔與其盈利能力的關係。這種方法的優點是,我們既考慮了債務的絕對數量(淨債務與EBITDA之比),也考慮了與債務相關的實際利息支出(及其利息覆蓋率)。
Vista Outdoor的淨債務與EBITDA之比較低,僅為0.73。而且它的息税前利潤很容易彌補利息支出,是其規模的26.1倍。因此,我們對它對債務的超級保守使用相當放鬆。最重要的是,Vista Outdoor在過去12個月中息税前利潤增長了84%,這一增長將使其更容易處理債務。當你分析債務時,資產負債表顯然是你關注的領域。但最終,該業務未來的盈利能力將決定Vista Outdoor能否隨着時間的推移加強其資產負債表。所以,如果你關注未來,你可以看看這個免費顯示分析師利潤預測的報告。
但我們的最後考慮也很重要,因為一家公司不能用賬面利潤來償還債務;它需要冷硬現金。因此,合乎邏輯的一步是看看息税前利潤與實際自由現金流相匹配的比例。在過去的三年裏,Vista Outdoor產生了相當於其息税前利潤的70%的強勁自由現金流,這與我們預期的差不多。這種冷酷的現金意味着,它可以在想要的時候減少債務。
我們的觀點
好消息是,Vista Outdoor被證明有能力通過息税前利潤來支付利息支出,這讓我們感到高興,就像一隻毛茸茸的小狗對待蹣跚學步的孩子一樣。但是,更為悲觀的是,我們對其總負債水平略感擔憂。縮小範圍,Vista Outdoor似乎相當合理地使用債務;這得到了我們的認可。畢竟,合理的槓桿可以提高股本回報率。毫無疑問,我們從資產負債表中瞭解到的債務最多。然而,並非所有投資風險都存在於資產負債表中--遠非如此。請注意,Vista Outdoor正在顯示我們的投資分析中的2個警告信號,其中一條意義重大……
