Nervermind, I guess I should have made a screen shot. That does look correct. Sorry to have bothered you, my apologies.

Hi, thanks for responding; take NKE for example:

Dividend Safety Metrics

Payout Ratio                                         37.20%

Cash Dividend Payout Ratio (TTM)      27.23%

Net Long Term Debt / Total Assets        -2.54%

Net Long Term Debt / EBITDA             -10.49%


What causes the two values to be negative. I guess I'm wondering how Net Long Term Debt is calculated, since it seems to affect both.
