The debt-to-equity ratio for Brunswick Corporation has consistently been 0.00 for each reporting period from March 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company has not utilized any debt to finance its operations relative to its equity over these periods. As a result, Brunswick Corporation has been relying solely on equity financing, suggesting a conservative financial leverage strategy. A low debt-to-equity ratio typically indicates lower financial risk due to lower debt levels, potentially making the company more attractive to investors and creditors. While a zero debt-to-equity ratio may seem unusual, it is not necessarily a negative sign, especially if the company can sustain its operations and growth without the need for debt financing.
