Debt-to-Equity Ratio

The current Debt-to-Equity ratio of 1.05x means that for every dollar of shareholder equity, PNC has $1.05 of debt, indicating moderate financial leverage.

This compares to the sector median of 0.63x, placing PNC in the 61st percentile among its Financial Services peers—meaning its leverage is higher than 61% of similar companies. Trend data for this metric is not available; both the year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter changes are reported as N/A, so no directional insight can be derived. Without a trend, the combination of an above-median leverage level with no recent change history implies that the stock carries typical sector risk from its debt load, but the absence of movement offers no clear signal for opportunity or danger. This metric neither supports nor contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict—the ratio is elevated relative to peers but not extreme, and the lack of trend data means it does not add a positive or negative bias.
