Debt-to-capital ratio = Long-term debt ÷ (Long-term debt + Total stockholders’ equity)

= 0.31

The debt-to-capital ratio for Enpro Inc has exhibited some fluctuations over the past eight quarters. The ratio has ranged from 0.31 to 0.46 during this period.

In Q4 2023, the debt-to-capital ratio was 0.31, showing a slight decrease from the previous quarter. This indicates that the company had a relatively lower proportion of debt in relation to its total capital structure in Q4 2023.

Looking at the trend over the past year, we observe that the ratio peaked at 0.46 in Q1 2022 and has since fluctuated within the range of 0.31 to 0.46. This implies that Enpro Inc has been managing its debt and capital effectively within this period.

It is worth noting that a lower debt-to-capital ratio generally suggests a more conservative capital structure, indicating lower financial risk. On the other hand, a higher ratio may indicate higher leverage and potentially greater financial risk. Enpro Inc's debt-to-capital ratio trends suggest a prudent approach to managing its debt and capital mix.
