= 0.00
The debt-to-capital ratio of Autoliv Inc remained consistently at 0.00 from March 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company has not utilized any debt as a source of capital during this period. A debt-to-capital ratio of zero implies that the company's capital structure is primarily equity-financed, which could be perceived positively by investors and creditors due to lower financial risk associated with debt obligations. Autoliv Inc's ability to maintain a debt-free capital structure may suggest financial stability and a strong ability to generate internal funds to support operations and growth initiatives. However, it's crucial to also consider the potential limitations of a purely equity-funded capital structure, such as missed opportunities for leveraging debt for tax advantages or strategic investments.
