The debt-to-assets ratio of BWX Technologies Inc has been relatively stable over the past eight quarters. It ranged from 0.44 to 0.51 during this period, indicating that the company's level of debt relative to its total assets has not significantly changed.

The fluctuation within this range suggests that BWX Technologies Inc has been managing its debt and assets in a consistent manner. A lower ratio indicates a lower proportion of debt financing compared to assets, which can be seen as a positive sign of financial health and stability.

Although the ratio has slightly increased from 0.44 in Q4 2022 to 0.51 in Q1 2022, the overall trend does not show any concerning signs of excessive debt relative to assets.
