Based on the solvency ratios of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, we can see that the debt-to-assets ratio, debt-to-capital ratio, and debt-to-equity ratio have consistently remained at 0.00 across the various reporting periods. This indicates that the company has not been utilizing debt significantly to finance its operations relative to its assets, capital, or equity.
However, the financial leverage ratio has shown some fluctuation over time, ranging from 1.91 to 2.49. A higher financial leverage ratio suggests that the company relies more on debt to finance its operations compared to equity. The increasing trend in the financial leverage ratio over recent periods may indicate a higher level of financial risk as the company becomes more leveraged.
Overall, while La-Z-Boy Incorporated has maintained low debt ratios, the increasing financial leverage ratio warrants careful monitoring to ensure the company's ability to meet its debt obligations and maintain financial stability in the long run.

The ratio has shown a general downward trend, starting at 74.00 in October 2019 and peaking at 394.48 in April 2023.
From July 2021 to April 2024, the interest coverage ratio has remained above 100, reaching significant highs such as 387.42 in July 2023 and 396.23 in January 2024. This suggests that the company has been generating significantly more operating income relative to its interest expenses during these periods.
