This indicates that the company has not relied on debt financing to fund its operations and investments but has instead primarily used equity or retained earnings to finance its activities.

A debt-to-capital ratio of 0.00 implies that the company's total debt is either non-existent or negligible compared to its total capital, which comprises both debt and equity. This can be viewed positively by investors and creditors as it suggests a low risk of financial distress due to excessive debt levels and a strong financial position. However, it is essential to consider other financial metrics and factors in conjunction with the debt-to-capital ratio to obtain a comprehensive assessment of SPX Corp's financial health and risk profile.
