Zscaler carries $1.1B in long-term debt, with $1.7B in scheduled principal maturities. ZS shows negative interest coverage (-19.6x), indicating operating losses exceed interest costs and a strong cash position ($982M) that could cover most of its debt obligations. DebtCanary scores ZS at 1/10, suggesting manageable refinancing risk.

Maturity Schedule

As of 2026-04-30 (latest SEC filing with maturity data). Debt actions taken after this date will only appear once SEC processes the relevant XBRL filing.

Period	Amount Due	% of Total
Year 1 (0-12 months)	N/A	N/A
Year 2 (12-24 months)	N/A	N/A
Year 3 (24-36 months)	N/A	N/A
Year 4 (36-48 months)	N/A	N/A
Year 5 (48-60 months)	N/A	N/A
Beyond 5 Years	$1.7B	100.0%
Total Scheduled Maturities	$1.7B	100.0%

Why don't these totals match? Total scheduled maturities ($1.7B) exceeds balance-sheet long-term debt ($1.1B) by about 32%. The two figures come from different disclosures: the maturity schedule aggregates gross principal repayments from the debt footnote — typically including the current portion of long-term debt and sometimes finance leases — while balance-sheet long-term debt is a carrying value that excludes the current portion and is net of unamortized discounts, premiums, and issuance costs. They can also come from filings with different period-end dates (2026-04-30 vs 2026-04-30). Both numbers are shown exactly as reported to the SEC.

How This Score Was Computed

Weighted average of 2 scored components (raw 1.00, rounded to 1). Weights of skipped components are redistributed proportionally among those scored.

Component	Value	Sub-Score	Weight Used
Near-Term Maturity Concentration No Year-1 maturity bucket was reported in recent filings.	N/A	—	not scored
Interest Coverage Ratio Show calculation Operating income / Interest expense Operating income: -$128M Interest expense: $7M GAAP operating income is negative while operating cash flow is positive (commonly stock-based compensation). The sub-score uses cash-flow coverage of 148.7x ($972M operating cash flow / $7M interest) so a non-cash loss doesn't read as debt distress. The displayed ratio stays GAAP.	-19.64x	1/10	50%
Debt-to-Equity Ratio Show calculation Long-term debt / Stockholders' equity Long-term debt: $1.1B Stockholders' equity: $2.4B	0.49	1/10	50%
Cash Coverage of Near-Term Debt No near-term debt obligation was reported (no Year-1 maturity bucket and no balance-sheet short-term debt).	N/A	—	not scored
Cash Runway Only scored when a company is burning cash. Operating cash flow is positive (or unreported), so runway isn't a constraint.	N/A	—	not scored
