Deep Analysis
Ultra Clean Holdings' debt-to-equity ratio of 0.96x means the company has $0.96 of debt for every $1.00 of shareholders' equity, a measure of financial leverage.
This is substantially higher than the sector median of 0.27x, placing the company in the 79th percentile among technology peers—indicating higher relative debt usage. The year-over-year change is not available, but the ratio dropped 22.6% quarter-over-quarter from 1.24x to 0.96x, signaling a reduction in leverage. The combination of an above-median level with a declining trend suggests the company is actively reducing debt exposure, which tempers the risk of high leverage but does not eliminate it. For investors, this implies a moderate risk profile: the high starting point remains a concern, but the trajectory is improving. This metric partially supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the elevated debt ratio is a negative factor that is countered by the recent downward trend.
