Deep Analysis
Range Resources' debt-to-equity ratio of 0.18x means that for every dollar of shareholder equity, the company has only 18 cents of debt — a measure of how much the company relies on borrowed money versus its own funds.
That ratio is well below the Energy sector median of 0.68x, placing Range Resources in the 9th percentile among peers, indicating it carries far less debt than most companies in its sector. The year-over-year change is not available, but the quarter-over-quarter change shows a decline of 14.3%, moving from 0.21x to 0.18x. This combination of a very low debt level and a further decreasing trend implies minimal financial leverage risk, which can protect the company during downturns but may also limit potential returns from debt-financed growth. The low and falling ratio supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict — it reinforces a defensive risk profile without providing a catalyst for outperformance relative to peers.
