This means that the company has enough cash and other liquid assets to pay off its short-term debts. A negative net working capital indicates that a company has more current liabilities than current assets. This means that the company may not be able to pay off its short-term debts.<\/p>\n<p>Net working capital is an important measure of a company&#8217;s financial health.
