Debt-to-Equity Ratio

A company’s Debt-to-Equity Ratio compares total liabilities to shareholders’ equity, with 0.39x meaning it uses $0.39 of debt for every $1 of equity — a low leverage level.

Among sector peers, the median is 0.75x, and JNPR sits at the 29th percentile, indicating it carries less debt than 71% of comparable companies. Trend data is not available: year-over-year change is N/A, quarter-over-quarter change is N/A, and no historical values over the last 8 quarters are provided. Without trend direction, the low current debt level suggests limited financial risk from leverage, but also offers no insight into whether this is stable, rising, or falling. This combination of a low debt level and absent trend data points to a neutral risk profile — not a clear opportunity or danger from leverage alone. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the low ratio is neither alarming nor indicative of aggressive growth financing.
