Debt-to-Equity Ratio

The debt-to-equity ratio measures the proportion of company financing that comes from debt versus shareholders' equity.

FSLR's current ratio of 0.04x means it uses very little debt, indicating a conservative capital structure. This is far below the sector median of 0.75x, placing the company in the 11th percentile among its peers, meaning only 11% of sector firms have a lower ratio. Trend data is not available: the year-over-year change, quarter-over-quarter change, and direction over the last eight quarters are all listed as N/A. Because the level is extremely low and no trend information exists, the primary implication is low financial risk from leverage, but the lack of historical context limits any assessment of recent changes in strategy. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the low debt level suggests stability and low default risk, yet offers no clear catalyst for an upgrade or downgrade without trend data.
