Description

The summer of 2019 was fast approaching and Douglas Boessen, Garmin's CFO, was adamant that he would not leave for vacation before dealing with the long-postponed review of the company's capital structure. Garmin did not have any long-term debt and Boessen thought that given the environment of low interest rates, the company would benefit from tapping the bond market. This case is designed to assess Garmin's capital structure and discuss whether the company should add debt to it.
