As the debt-to-equity ratio data is not available for Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc across the specified quarters, a detailed analysis of this ratio over time is not feasible. However, the debt-to-equity ratio is a critical financial metric that reflects the company's leverage and financial risk. A higher ratio indicates that the company is financing its operations more through debt than equity, potentially increasing financial risk. On the other hand, a lower ratio implies a more conservative financial structure.

To provide an accurate assessment of Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc's financial leverage and risk management strategies, it would be essential to obtain the debt and equity figures for the respective quarters and calculate the debt-to-equity ratio accordingly. This analysis would offer insights into the company's capital structure decisions and its ability to meet financial obligations effectively.
