The Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) is a financial metric that evaluates an entity's ability to generate enough cash to meet its debt obligations, including interest and principal payments. It is calculated by dividing net operating income by total debt service, with a DSCR greater than 1 indicating financial health. A DSCR of 1 signifies that income just covers debt payments, while a DSCR of 1.25 indicates income is 1.25 times more than the required debt obligations.
