About Debt to Equity Ratio

YCharts Calculation: Debt to Equity = (Long Term Debt + Current Portion of Long Term Debt) / Total Shareholders' Equity

The debt to equity ratio is a leverage ratio indicating the relative proportion of shareholders' equity and debt used to finance a company's assets. It reveals how a company has financed its assets. A low debt to equity ratio indicates lower risk because shareholder's have claims on a larger portion of the company's assets.

A high debt to equity ratio usually means that a company has been aggressive in financing growth with debt and often results in volatile earnings.

It is also known as Debt/Equity Ratio, Debt-Equity Ratio, and D/E Ratio.
