Solvency ratios also known as long-term debt ratios measure a company ability to meet long-term obligations.
Solvency Ratios (Summary)
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2020-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2020-03-31).
- Debt to Equity
- The debt to equity ratio demonstrates a consistent decreasing trend from 0.78 at the end of Q1 2020 to 0.22 by Q1 2025. This steady decline indicates a gradual reduction in reliance on debt relative to shareholders' equity over the observed period, suggesting an improvement in the company’s financial stability and lower financial risk.
- Debt to Equity (including operating lease liability)
- This ratio also exhibits a downward trajectory, starting at 1.20 in Q1 2020 and falling to 0.49 by Q1 2025. Although this measure, which incorporates operating lease liabilities, remains higher than the traditional debt to equity ratio, it follows a similar pattern of debt reduction over time, reflecting improved overall leverage management.
- Debt to Capital
- The debt to capital ratio decreases from 0.44 in Q1 2020 to 0.18 in Q1 2025. This decline further confirms the reduced proportion of debt within the total capital structure, indicating an increasing weight of equity. This trend supports a strengthening balance sheet.
- Debt to Capital (including operating lease liability)
- This ratio sees a modest drop from 0.54 in Q1 2020 to 0.33 in Q1 2025, mirroring the downward trend in traditional debt to capital but at slightly elevated levels, attributable to lease obligations. A consistent decline is observable, signaling ongoing deleveraging even after accounting for operating lease commitments.
- Debt to Assets
- The debt to assets ratio declines gradually from 0.23 in Q1 2020 to 0.11 in Q1 2025, reflecting a decreasing share of debt financing relative to total assets. This trend points toward improved asset coverage and lower financial risk in asset management.
- Debt to Assets (including operating lease liability)
- Including operating lease liabilities, this ratio decreases from 0.35 to 0.23 over the same period. Although the values are higher due to lease obligations, the consistent downward movement suggests effective management of both debt and lease-related liabilities in relation to total assets.
- Financial Leverage
- Financial leverage ratios exhibit a decline from 3.39 times at Q1 2020 to 2.10 times by Q1 2025. This diminishing leverage ratio supports a conclusion of reduced dependence on debt to finance assets and a strengthening of equity financing, which reduces the riskiness of the capital structure.
- Interest Coverage
- The interest coverage ratio data shows notable volatility, with missing early values, followed by a high peak of 22.09 in Q4 2020, then a significant drop to negative territory (-1.51) in Q4 2022, indicating periods where earnings before interest and taxes were insufficient to cover interest expenses. However, from that trough, the ratio recovers strongly, steadily increasing to 34.56 by Q1 2025. This recovery and eventual strong coverage profile suggest improved operational earnings and reduced financial stress related to interest obligations.

The financial data shows a clear progression in the company’s capital structure over the analyzed periods. Total debt and stockholders’ equity values indicate evolving financing and growth dynamics.
- Total Debt
- The total debt exhibits some fluctuations but remains generally within a range between approximately 51 billion and 86 billion US dollars over the quarters. Initially, total debt rose from around 51 billion in Q1 2020 to about 77 billion in mid-2021, then displayed a mild declining trend towards the later periods, reaching near 69 billion by early 2025. This suggests periodic borrowing increases followed by gradual deleveraging or debt stabilization efforts.
- Stockholders' Equity
- Stockholders’ equity demonstrates consistent growth throughout the timeline, increasing from around 65 billion US dollars in Q1 2020 to approximately 306 billion by Q1 2025. This signifies a strong accumulation of retained earnings or equity financing, reflecting business expansion and increased net asset value over time.
- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio steadily decreased from a starting point of 0.78 in early 2020 to 0.22 by Q1 2025. This downward trend indicates a strengthening equity base in comparison to debt, implying the company is progressively less leveraged. The consistent reduction in this ratio over nearly five years reflects a strategic emphasis on equity growth or debt reduction, contributing to a more conservative financial risk profile.
Overall, the trends reveal a company that has managed to grow its equity substantially while containing or reducing its relative debt levels. The declining debt-to-equity ratio confirms a move towards a more robust balance sheet with improved financial stability. This pattern is typically favorable from a credit risk perspective and may provide enhanced flexibility for future financing or investment opportunities.

Debt to equity (including operating lease liability) = Total debt (including operating lease liability) ÷ Stockholders’ equity
= 150,502 ÷ 305,867 = 0.49
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
The financial data reveals several notable trends regarding the company's capital structure over the observed periods from March 31, 2020, through March 31, 2025.
- Total Debt (including operating lease liability)
- The total debt balance shows an overall increasing trend from 78,151 million USD at the beginning of the period to a peak of approximately 154,972 million USD by December 31, 2022. Afterward, total debt generally stabilizes and slightly declines, ending at 150,502 million USD by March 31, 2025. Despite fluctuations, the level of total debt remains significantly higher in the later periods compared to the starting point, indicating an expanded leverage base over the years.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity demonstrates consistent growth throughout the periods, increasing steadily from 65,272 million USD in March 2020 to 305,867 million USD by March 2025. This reflects a continuous accumulation of retained earnings and possibly capital injections, which contribute to strengthening the company's equity base. The pace of equity growth appears to accelerate particularly from late 2021 onward, suggesting improved profitability or capital increases in recent years.
- Debt to Equity Ratio (including operating lease liability)
- The debt-to-equity ratio shows a declining pattern, falling from 1.20 in March 2020 to 0.49 by March 2025. This decrease indicates a reduction in financial leverage relative to equity, driven primarily by the faster growth in stockholders’ equity compared to total debt. The ratio fluctuates slightly in some quarters but follows a general downward trajectory. Lower leverage may signal a more conservative capital structure and potentially reduced financial risk over time.
In summary, the data reflects a strategic shift toward a stronger equity base alongside a relatively stable or slightly decreasing debt level in recent years. This results in a gradual but clear reduction in leverage, which could improve creditworthiness and financial flexibility. The company's capital structure evolution suggests prudent financial management aimed at balancing growth with risk reduction.

1 Q1 2025 Calculation
Debt to capital = Total debt ÷ Total capital
= 68,771 ÷ 374,638 = 0.18
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total Debt
- The total debt exhibited fluctuations over the periods analyzed. Starting at approximately $51 billion in March 2020, it increased steadily to peak near $77 billion in June 2021. Subsequently, the total debt experienced a gradual decline, reaching around $68 billion by March 2025. This pattern suggests periods of debt accumulation followed by a strategic reduction in liabilities over time.
- Total Capital
- Total capital showed a consistent upward trend across all reported periods. Beginning at about $116 billion in March 2020, the total capital increased steadily each quarter, surpassing $374 billion by March 2025. This increase reflects ongoing growth in the company’s overall capital base, which may be indicative of expansion, retained earnings, or additional equity issuance.
- Debt to Capital Ratio
- The debt to capital ratio declined progressively throughout the timeline. Initially, the ratio was relatively high at 0.44 in March 2020, indicating a significant portion of capital was financed through debt. Over the next several years, the ratio consistently decreased, falling to 0.18 by March 2025. This decline signals a reduction in reliance on debt financing relative to the overall capital structure, highlighting a strengthening balance sheet and potentially lower financial risk.

1 Q1 2025 Calculation
Debt to capital (including operating lease liability) = Total debt (including operating lease liability) ÷ Total capital (including operating lease liability)
= 150,502 ÷ 456,369 = 0.33
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total debt (including operating lease liability)
- The total debt level exhibited a rising trend from March 31, 2020, through December 31, 2022, increasing from approximately $78.2 billion to nearly $155.0 billion. After peaking around the end of 2022, total debt showed a slight overall decline throughout 2023 and into early 2025, leveling off between approximately $147.8 billion and $154.8 billion. This suggests that while the company initially increased its leverage, there has been a stabilization or modest reduction in debt in more recent periods.
- Total capital (including operating lease liability)
- Total capital showed a consistent upward trajectory from around $143.4 billion in March 2020 to $456.4 billion by March 2025. This steady increase indicates substantial growth in the company's capital base over the period examined, with accelerating growth observable particularly from 2021 onwards. The rise in total capital outpaced that of total debt, indicating expansion financed through means other than debt as well.
- Debt to capital ratio (including operating lease liability)
- The debt to capital ratio declined steadily from 0.54 in March 2020 to 0.33 by March 2025. This downward trend reflects an improving capital structure, with the proportion of debt relative to total capital decreasing consistently over the five-year period. The reduction in this leverage ratio suggests enhanced financial stability and potentially lower financial risk, driven by faster growth in capital relative to debt.

Debt to assets = Total debt ÷ Total assets
= 68,771 ÷ 643,256 = 0.11
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total Debt
- The total debt exhibits fluctuations over the periods, initially rising from approximately $51 billion in March 2020 to a peak around $81 billion in June 2022. After this peak, a general declining trend is observed, with debt decreasing consistently to approximately $69 billion by March 2025. This suggests active debt management or repayment efforts in the later periods.
- Total Assets
- Total assets have demonstrated a steady increase throughout the entire period, growing from about $221 billion in March 2020 to over $643 billion by March 2025. This continuous growth indicates significant expansion and asset acquisition, reflecting positive capital investment and overall growth in the company's asset base.
- Debt to Assets Ratio
- The debt to assets ratio shows a declining trend over the periods. Starting at 0.23 in March 2020, it decreases consistently to 0.11 by March 2025. This indicates an improvement in the company's leverage position, meaning that liabilities are becoming a smaller proportion of the total asset base which may signal strengthened financial stability and lower credit risk.
- Overall Analysis
- The data indicates that while total debt initially rose, it was subsequently reduced, ultimately contributing to a declining debt to assets ratio. Concurrently, the steady expansion of total assets has further improved leverage metrics. This combination of rising assets and controlled debt levels reveals an increasingly robust financial position over the observed timeframe.

1 Q1 2025 Calculation
Debt to assets (including operating lease liability) = Total debt (including operating lease liability) ÷ Total assets
= 150,502 ÷ 643,256 = 0.23
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total debt (including operating lease liability)
- The total debt shows a general upward trend from March 2020 through December 2022, increasing from approximately $78.2 billion to about $155.0 billion. After peaking in late 2022 and early 2023, the debt levels exhibited minor fluctuations but remained relatively stable around the $150 billion mark through March 2025, demonstrating slight reductions toward the final periods observed.
- Total assets
- Total assets have consistently increased over the entire period, rising from approximately $221.2 billion in March 2020 to $643.3 billion by March 2025. This growth suggests a substantial expansion of the asset base, with noticeable acceleration from 2022 onward, reflecting ongoing investments or acquisitions that have significantly increased the company’s resource holdings.
- Debt to assets ratio (including operating lease liability)
- This ratio declined gradually over the observed periods, starting at 0.35 in early 2020 and decreasing to 0.23 by March 2025. The steady reduction in the debt to assets ratio indicates improving financial leverage, as assets grew at a faster pace than liabilities. This trend suggests enhanced financial stability and a potentially stronger balance sheet position over time.

1 Q1 2025 Calculation
Financial leverage = Total assets ÷ Stockholders’ equity
= 643,256 ÷ 305,867 = 2.10
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total Assets
- The total assets show a consistent upward trend from March 31, 2020, to March 31, 2025. Initially, assets increased from $221,238 million in March 2020 to $420,549 million by December 2021. Following a slight decline in early 2022, the upward trajectory resumed, reaching $643,256 million by March 2025. This indicates ongoing asset growth with occasional minor fluctuations.
- Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity has steadily increased over the entire period. Starting at $65,272 million in March 2020, equity rose to $138,245 million by December 2021, more than doubling. The growth continued consistently through March 2025, with equity reaching $305,867 million. The pattern reflects strong capital retention and reinvestment, supporting enhanced shareholder value.
- Financial Leverage
- The financial leverage ratio, which measures the proportion of total assets to stockholders' equity, shows a general declining trend over the timeframe. From a high of 3.5 in June 2020, the ratio decreased steadily to 2.1 by March 2025. This decline suggests a reduction in reliance on debt financing relative to equity. The company appears to be strengthening its balance sheet by increasing equity at a faster rate than assets, potentially reducing financial risk.

- Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT)
- The EBIT showed significant volatility over the observed periods. Initially, there was a strong upward trend from 3,681 million USD in March 2020 to a peak of 15,417 million USD in December 2021. However, this was followed by a sharp decline, with EBIT turning negative to -4,794 million USD in March 2022 and remaining highly variable until December 2022. From early 2023 onwards, EBIT recovered robustly, exhibiting consistent growth through the latest period in March 2025, reaching 22,221 million USD. Overall, the pattern indicates a recovery phase after a notable downturn, followed by a sustained growth trajectory.
- Interest Expense
- Interest expense increased gradually from 402 million USD in March 2020 to a peak of 823 million USD in March 2023. Following this peak, a gradual decline is observed, with interest expense decreasing to 541 million USD by March 2025. The pattern suggests a rise in financing costs up to early 2023, followed by effective management or reduction of interest-bearing liabilities thereafter.
- Interest Coverage Ratio
- The interest coverage ratio, indicating the ability to cover interest payments with EBIT, displayed considerable fluctuations. Starting above 15 in late 2020, the ratio peaked at 22.09 in December 2021 before plunging to negative territory (-1.51) in March 2022, corresponding with the negative EBIT. Subsequently, the ratio recovered steadily, improving to 34.56 by March 2025. This recovery reflects enhanced operational earnings capacity relative to interest obligations, indicating strengthened financial health over the latter periods.
