Deep Analysis

The debt-to-equity ratio measures how much a company relies on borrowed money versus its own shareholders’ capital; a ratio of 0.93x means FR uses 93 cents of debt for every $1 of equity.

This is above the real estate sector median of 0.75x, placing FR in the 77th percentile among peers—meaning it carries more debt than 77% of comparable companies. Trend data is not available because the year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter changes are both reported as N/A, and there are only two historical values (0.93x most recently and 0.00x before that, with no time span specified). Without a trend, the current level alone suggests FR operates with moderately higher financial leverage than the typical sector peer, which could increase risk during downturns but may also support higher returns. This metric neither strongly contradicts nor fully supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict—it highlights above-average debt exposure, but the lack of directional change means neither a clear risk nor opportunity is signaled.
