Generation

Leverage and debt-to-equity ratio measure how much a company relies on borrowed money versus owner's equity to finance its operations. Higher leverage can amplify returns when times are good but also increases financial risk and potential losses during downturns. These metrics help investors and creditors assess a company's financial stability and ability to meet its debt obligations.
