Deep Analysis

The debt-to-equity ratio compares a company's total liabilities to its shareholders' equity, showing how much it relies on borrowed funds.

PG's current ratio of 0.68x means that for every dollar of equity, there is 68 cents of debt — a moderate leverage level. This ratio sits exactly at the consumer defensive sector median of 0.68x, placing PG in the 50th percentile among its peers, indicating an average debt profile. No year-over-year or quarter-over-quarter change data is available, and the trend direction over the last eight quarters is also not reported, so no movement can be assessed. Without any trend information, the combination of an average metric and an unknown direction offers neither a clear risk nor an opportunity for investors. This metric aligns with the overall NEUTRAL verdict: the debt level is in line with the sector, and the lack of change provides no reason to shift the view.
