The debt-to-assets ratio of Treehouse Foods Inc has exhibited a fluctuating trend over the past five years. The ratio decreased slightly from 0.41 in 2019 to 0.40 in 2020 before experiencing a more significant decline to 0.37 in 2021. However, the ratio increased marginally in 2022 to 0.33 before rising again to 0.34 in 2023.

A decreasing debt-to-assets ratio indicates that the company is becoming less reliant on debt financing in relation to its total assets, which can be a positive sign for financial stability. Conversely, an increasing ratio may suggest a higher level of debt relative to the company's assets, potentially indicating a higher financial risk.

It is important for investors and stakeholders to monitor changes in the debt-to-assets ratio over time to assess the company's financial health and its ability to meet its debt obligations.
