Looking at Republic Services, Inc.'s solvency ratios over the past eight quarters, we see consistency in their debt-to-assets ratio, staying around 0.40 to 0.42. This suggests that, on average, around 40-42% of Republic Services' assets are financed by debt.

The debt-to-equity ratio has shown more variability, ranging from 1.07 to 1.29. This suggests that Republic Services has at times relied more heavily on debt to finance its operations compared to equity.

The financial leverage ratio, averaging around 2.90 to 3.00, indicates that the company has been using debt to amplify returns for shareholders. However, investors should note the increasing trend in the financial leverage ratio, which may indicate a higher level of financial risk and potential impact on profitability during unfavorable economic conditions.

Overall, Republic Services, Inc. has maintained relatively stable solvency ratios over the past eight quarters, indicating a balanced mix of debt and equity financing. Investors should continue to monitor these ratios to assess the company's ability to meet its long-term financial obligations.
