Lenovo's Financing Costs Just Hit a Record. For No Payoff

Lenovo's Financing Costs Just Hit a Record. For No Payoff

Lenovo Group Ltd.'s debt load is becoming quite a drag. Used to fund a spate of deals four years ago, the PC maker's mix of bonds, promissory notes and factoring drove financing costs to a record $263.2 million last fiscal year, from just $81 million in 2014. In its earnings report, Lenovo missed an opportunity to write down the goodwill on those investments despite clear evidence that the purchases aren't paying their way.
