The fuel that keeps a company running.
Working capital is simply current assets minus current liabilities. It's the best way to judge how much a company has in liquid assets to build its business, fund its growth, and produce shareholder value.

If a company has ample positive working capital, it's is in good shape, with plenty of cash on hand to pay for everything it might need to buy. But negative working capital means that the company's current liabilities exceed its current assets, removing its ability to spend as aggressively as a working-capital-positive peer. All other things being equal, a company with positive working capital will always outperform a company without it.

Working capital is the absolute lifeblood of a company. For most companies, acquiring working capital was 99% of the reason they went public in the first place, whether they wanted to build their businesses, fund acquisitions, or develop new products. Anything good that comes from a company springs from working capital. And if a company runs out of working capital, but still has bills to pay and products to develop, it's got big problems.
