The debt-to-equity ratio for Steven Madden Ltd has consistently been 0.00 for all the reported periods from March 31, 2020, to December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company has been using predominantly equity financing rather than debt to support its operations and growth. A debt-to-equity ratio of 0.00 means that there is no financial leverage through debt in the capital structure of the company during these periods. This could suggest a conservative financing approach, minimizing the risk associated with debt obligations. However, it's important to note that a low debt-to-equity ratio may also limit the company's ability to benefit from the tax advantages of debt and might indicate underutilization of debt for potential growth opportunities.
