The financial leverage ratio of Masimo Corporation has shown a fluctuating trend over the past five years. In 2019, the ratio stood at 1.20, indicating a relatively modest level of financial leverage. Subsequently, there was a notable increase in 2020 to 1.22, which was maintained in 2021 as well. The ratio then spiked to 2.40 in 2022, signifying a significant rise in financial leverage, which could indicate increased reliance on debt to finance operations or investments. However, in 2023, the ratio decreased to 2.23 but still remained at a higher level compared to the previous years.
