Based on the given data, the debt-to-assets ratio of Foot Locker Inc has remained relatively stable over the past several quarters, ranging between 0.01 and 0.06. The ratio indicates that for every dollar of assets Foot Locker owns, they have between 1% to 6% in debt obligations.

The consistently low debt-to-assets ratio suggests that Foot Locker has a conservative approach to financing its operations, relying more on equity than debt to fund its activities. This can be seen as a positive sign, indicating financial stability and lower financial risk for the company.

It's worth noting that the slight fluctuations in the ratio may be attributed to changes in the company's debt levels or asset values over time.
