Deep Analysis

A debt-to-equity ratio of 0.92x means the company has 92 cents of debt for every $1 of shareholders’ equity, showing how much leverage it uses to finance assets.

This sits above the sector median of 0.74x, placing the company at the 60th percentile among peers—meaning roughly 40% of peers carry more debt relative to equity. The trend is not available: both the year-over-year change and quarter-over-quarter change are N/A, and no historical values beyond the current 0.92x are provided. Because the ratio is moderately above the sector norm, the company carries a somewhat higher financial risk than its typical peer, but the level is not extreme. The absence of trend data removes any signal about whether leverage is rising or falling, limiting forward-looking assessment. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: the debt level is neither alarmingly high nor clearly improving, so it does not tilt the stock toward bullish or bearish.
