Sanofi's Interest Coverage for the quarter that ended in Jun. 2024 is

Interest Coverage=-1*Operating Income (Q: Jun. 2024 )/Interest Expense (Q: Jun. 2024 )
=-1*4856.835/-417.653
=11.63

The higher the ratio, the stronger the company's financial strength is.

2. Debt to revenue ratio. The lower, the better.

Sanofi's Debt to Revenue Ratio for the quarter that ended in Jun. 2024 is

Debt to Revenue Ratio=Total Debt (Q: Jun. 2024 ) / Revenue
=(Short-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation + Long-Term Debt & Capital Lease Obligation) / Revenue
=(10242.196 + 15324.004) / 48434.876
=0.53

Sanofi Business Description

Address
46, avenue de la Great Army, Paris, FRA, 75017
Sanofi develops and markets drugs with a concentration in oncology, immunology, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, over-the-counter treatments and vaccines. However, the company's decision in late 2019 to pull back from the cardio-metabolic area will likely reduce the firm's footprint in this large therapeutic area. The company offers a diverse array of drugs with its highest revenue generator, Dupixent, representing just over 20% of total sales, but profits are shared with Regeneron. About 40% of total revenue comes from the United States and 25% from Europe. Emerging markets represent the majority of the remainder of revenue.
