The debt-to-capital ratio of Academy Sports Outdoors Inc has fluctuated over the past few quarters, indicating changes in the company's capital structure and financial leverage. The trend shows a gradual increase in the ratio from 0.20 on Oct 31, 2020, to 0.59 on Oct 31, 2020. This increase suggests that the company has been relying more on debt financing compared to its total capital, which includes both debt and equity.
A higher debt-to-capital ratio may indicate higher financial risk due to increased reliance on debt to fund operations or expansion. It also implies a higher interest burden that the company needs to manage. On the other hand, a lower ratio indicates a more conservative approach to financing, with a greater proportion of equity in the capital structure.
It is important for investors and stakeholders to closely monitor changes in the debt-to-capital ratio to assess the company's financial health and risk profile. Additionally, analyzing the trend of this ratio over time can provide insights into the company's ability to manage its debt levels effectively and maintain a sustainable capital structure.
