The debt-to-equity ratio of MasterBrand Inc. has shown fluctuations over the four quarters of 2024. Starting at 0.55 in both March and June, 2024, it slightly increased to 0.83 by September before decreasing to 0.78 by December. The company's debt-to-equity ratio indicates that it has been maintaining a relatively healthy balance between debt and equity in its capital structure throughout the year, with a moderate level of leverage. However, the increase in the ratio in the third quarter suggests a higher reliance on debt financing during that period, which is something that investors and stakeholders may want to monitor closely for any significant shifts in the company's financial risk profile.
