Edison International's solvency ratios provide insights into the company's ability to meet its long-term financial obligations and the extent to which it relies on debt financing.
The debt-to-assets ratio has remained relatively stable around 0.42 over the past few quarters, indicating that around 42% of the company's assets are financed by debt. This suggests a conservative approach to leverage, with a significant portion of assets funded by equity.
The debt-to-capital ratio has shown a slight increase from 0.64 in Q1 2022 to 0.69 in Q4 2023. This indicates that debt accounts for approximately 69% of the company's capital structure, highlighting a moderate reliance on debt financing compared to equity.
The debt-to-equity ratio has also shown an upward trend from 1.79 in Q1 2022 to 2.20 in Q4 2023. This indicates that the company has been increasing its debt relative to equity, with 2.20 times more debt than equity by the end of Q4 2023.
The financial leverage ratio has been consistently increasing from 4.75 in Q1 2022 to 5.27 in Q4 2023. This ratio indicates that the company's total assets are 5.27 times greater than its equity, reflecting a high level of financial leverage and potential risk associated with a heavy reliance on debt financing.
Overall, the trend in Edison International's solvency ratios suggests a shift towards greater reliance on debt financing over the quarters, potentially increasing financial risk and impacting the company's long-term financial stability.
