The financial leverage ratio of Amcor PLC has demonstrated a general upward trend from September 30, 2020, through to March 31, 2025, with some periods of stabilization and fluctuation. Initially, the ratio was approximately 3.51, indicating the company's use of debt relative to equity was moderate at that time. Over the subsequent periods, the leverage ratio gradually increased, reaching a peak of 4.69 by March 31, 2025.
Notably, between December 31, 2021, and September 30, 2022, there was a consistent rise in the leverage ratio, which signifies an increasing reliance on financial leverage, possibly due to additional borrowing or debt financing strategies. Post this peak, the ratio experienced minor fluctuations, remaining relatively stable around 4.22 to 4.31 up to December 31, 2024.
The most recent data point, March 31, 2025, indicates a spike to 4.69, suggesting a substantial increase in financial leverage at that time. Interestingly, the ratio appears to have decreased sharply from a peak of 4.26 on June 30, 2024, to 3.16 on June 30, 2025, which signals a significant reduction in leverage near the end of the observed period.
This pattern indicates that Amcor PLC's financial leverage has generally increased over the period, reflecting greater use of debt in Its capital structure. The fluctuations and recent decline in 2025 could be attributable to strategic shifts toward deleveraging or debt repayment efforts. Overall, the trend implies a company that has been progressively leveraging its operations, with a recent move towards reduced leverage, potentially to mitigate financial risk or adjust its capital structure in response to market conditions.
