Deep Analysis

A company’s Debt-to-Equity Ratio compares its total liabilities to shareholders’ equity, so 0.58x means it carries 58 cents of debt for every $1 of equity.

This sits below the sector median of 0.73x, placing FTV in the 40th percentile among peers, indicating lower leverage than most comparable companies. The metric’s year-over-year change is not available, and no eight-quarter trend is provided, but the quarter-over-quarter change is +1.8%, moving from 0.57x to 0.58x. The combination of a below-median level with only a slight quarterly increase implies limited added financial risk, while the low absolute leverage offers a buffer against earnings stress. This modest uptick does not alter the risk profile meaningfully. The metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as leverage is neither a clear strength nor a developing concern.
