The financial leverage ratio of Dave & Buster’s Entertainment has shown fluctuations over the analyzed period. The ratio started at 8.51 in January 2022, increased slightly to 10.24 in July 2022, and then remained relatively stable around 10.21 up to January 2023. Subsequently, there was a notable jump to 17.48 in October 2023, followed by fluctuations between 12.94 to 17.39 until January 2025 where it peaked at 27.54.

Further analysis of the company's debt structure and repayment capabilities would be necessary to fully assess the implications of this trend.
