Weakest Interest Coverage Ratios

Companies where operating income barely covers — or doesn't cover — interest payments. Updated 2026-03-31.

Interest coverage (operating income divided by interest expense) measures a company's ability to service its debt from operations. Coverage below 1.0x means the company isn't generating enough operating income to pay interest, and below 2.0x is considered thin by most credit standards. Negative coverage indicates operating losses.
