1 US$ in millions
- Total Debt
- The total debt was not reported prior to 2018. Starting from 2018, there is a consistent upward trend in total debt, increasing from $1,000 million in 2018 to $10,835 million by the end of 2022. This represents a more than tenfold increase over five years, indicating a significant rise in the company’s leverage and borrowing.
- Total PayPal Stockholders’ Equity
- Stockholders’ equity showed a generally increasing pattern from 2015 through 2021, rising from $13,759 million to a peak of $21,727 million. However, in 2022, equity decreased to $20,274 million. Despite this slight decline in the most recent year, the equity has grown overall during the period analyzed, reflecting accumulation of retained earnings and possibly other equity-related activities.
- Debt to Equity Ratio
- The debt to equity ratio was not available before 2018. It started at a low 0.06 in 2018 and displayed a steady increase to 0.53 by the end of 2022. This growing ratio corresponds with the rise in total debt relative to equity, signaling an increasing reliance on debt financing compared to equity financing. The ratio’s increase suggests a shift towards higher financial leverage, which could imply elevated financial risk or strategic use of debt for growth or other corporate purposes.
