The debt-to-capital ratio for Middleby Corp has been consistently at 0.00 for all the reported periods from March 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company has not utilized any debt in its capital structure during this time frame, resulting in a debt-free capital structure. A debt-to-capital ratio of 0.00 suggests that the company's capital is entirely financed by equity, which could imply a lower financial risk as the company is not relying on borrowed funds to finance its operations. However, it's important to note that a low debt-to-capital ratio could also mean missed opportunities for leveraging debt to potentially enhance returns, depending on the cost of debt and the company's risk tolerance.
