Deep Analysis
The debt-to-equity ratio measures how much a company relies on borrowed funds versus shareholder equity; a negative ratio means equity is negative, so liabilities exceed assets.
At -0.94x, WIX has more debt than total equity, which indicates financial strain. That level sits far below the sector median of 0.74x, placing the company in the 7th percentile among peers, meaning nearly all competitors carry less leverage risk. The year-over-year change is N/A, and the quarter-over-quarter change is +91.5%, though the trend direction over 8 quarters is also N/A; the only historical values available are -0.94x and -11.00x, showing the ratio moved sharply toward zero but remains negative. A negative ratio combined with an improving but still negative trend implies high balance-sheet risk, though the move from -11.00x to -0.94x signals that equity is being rebuilt. This metric supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict, as negative equity and a sector-relative position at the 7th percentile justify caution for potential investors.
