The debt-to-equity ratio of Gentherm Inc has shown a declining trend from 0.49 as of March 31, 2020, to 0.36 as of December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company has been reducing its reliance on debt and improving its equity position over the years.

The ratio decreased significantly in the first half of 2021, dropping from 0.32 as of December 31, 2020, to 0.07 by June 30, 2021. This sharp decline suggests a substantial decrease in debt levels relative to equity during this period.

However, the ratio started to increase again in the following quarters, reaching 0.37 as of September 30, 2022. This uptick could indicate a slight increase in debt compared to equity, although the ratio remained relatively low compared to historical levels.

Overall, Gentherm Inc's debt-to-equity ratio has displayed variability but generally indicates a healthy balance between debt and equity in the company's capital structure, with a decreasing trend reflecting a stronger equity position over time.
