Cash vs Debt
On the balance sheet, WWD has $501.2M in cash with $1.17B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation.

Return on equity stands at 21.1%, which is strong for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits.
