The financial leverage ratio of Amcor PLC has shown a slight increase from 3.55 in 2020 to 4.26 in 2024. This indicates that the company's reliance on debt to finance its operations and growth has been increasing over the years. A higher financial leverage ratio suggests that a larger portion of the company's assets is funded by debt, which can amplify returns but also increase financial risk. It is important for investors and stakeholders to closely monitor the company's ability to manage its debt levels and ensure sustainable growth without jeopardizing its financial stability.
