What Exactly Is a Debt-to-Equity Ratio?
A debt-to-equity ratio is a fundamental valuation metric used in the stock market to evaluate a company's financial health.
It looks at how much debt a company has in relation to its equity. It can be a helpful measure of the financial risk a company faces.
The formula looks like this:
Debt-to-Equity Ratio = (Total Liabilities) / (Shareholder Equity)
Here is a breakdown of the components of the calculation:
Total Liabilities: This includes both short-term and long-term debt obligations of the company.
Shareholder Equity: This is essentially the net worth of the company, calculated as total assets minus total liabilities. This is also referred to as the book value of the company.
The company's total liabilities and shareholder equity can be found on its balance sheet, which is publicly available for companies in the stock market.
