EBITDA less capex interest coverage

EBITDA less capex interest coverage is a financial metric that evaluates a company's ability to cover its interest payments on debt after accounting for both EBITDA and capital expenditures (capex).

EBITDA interest coverage = EBITDA / Interest expense on debt

If the sum of interest expense on debt and capital expenditures is negative, the EBITDA less capex interest coverage ratio can be calculated. However, if the sum is zero or positive, the result will be negligible, and the formula will return a null value.

A higher EBITDA less capex interest coverage ratio indicates that the company can meet its interest obligations even after accounting for capital expenditures.
