Ametek Inc has consistently maintained a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.00 over the past five years (from December 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024). This indicates that the company has been primarily financed through equity rather than debt during this period. A debt-to-equity ratio of 0.00 suggests that the company has either no debt on its balance sheet or a negligible amount in comparison to its equity capital. This low debt leverage could indicate a lower financial risk for the company as it is not relying heavily on borrowing to fund its operations or expansion. Investors and creditors often view a low debt-to-equity ratio favorably as it signifies a strong financial position and stability.
