The data indicates that Cardinal Health Inc maintained a debt-to-assets ratio of zero throughout the observed periods, spanning from September 30, 2020, through June 30, 2025. This consistency suggests that the company had no reported debt obligations relative to its total assets during this timeframe. Such a persistent ratio of zero is unusual for a typical corporate entity, especially one operating in the healthcare distribution sector, which generally leverages debt for financial flexibility and operational leverage. This pattern may imply that the company relied entirely on equity financing or retained earnings, or potentially that the data reflects an accounting anomaly or reporting choice that excludes or omits debt-related liabilities. Overall, the observed zero debt-to-assets ratio points to a capital structure that is devoid of reported leverage, which could indicate a conservative financial approach with implications for the company's risk profile and capital management strategy.
