Debt-to-Equity Ratio

The Debt-to-Equity Ratio measures how much debt a company uses to finance its assets compared to shareholders' equity; a ratio of 0.68x means for every $1 of equity, the company has $0.68 of debt.

This is below the sector median of 0.73x, placing HUBB in the 46th percentile among its peers, indicating a moderately lower leverage than the typical sector company. The year-over-year change is not available, and the quarter-over-quarter change is also not available, so no trend can be assessed from the provided data. Because the current level is below the sector median but no trend information exists, the implication is neutral for risk: the company carries less debt than peers, but the absence of historical direction leaves uncertainty about whether leverage is increasing or decreasing. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the below-median ratio suggests conservative financial structure, yet the lack of trend data prevents a stronger bullish or bearish conclusion.
