It suggests that La-Z-Boy's operations are primarily funded by equity or other non-debt sources, potentially providing the company with greater financial flexibility and lower interest expense. Additionally, a debt-to-assets ratio of 0.00 may imply a high level of financial stability and creditworthiness, as there is no direct obligation of debt to be serviced using the company's assets. However, it is important to note that while a low debt-to-assets ratio is generally viewed positively, it also suggests that the company may not be leveraging debt to potentially enhance returns on equity.
