The debt-to-assets ratio for Warner Bros Discovery Inc has consistently stood at 0.00 from December 31, 2020, through December 31, 2024. This indicates that the company has not relied on debt financing in relation to its total assets during this period. An extremely low or zero debt-to-assets ratio can suggest that the company primarily funds its operations through equity or retained earnings rather than through borrowing. While a low debt-to-assets ratio can imply lower financial risk due to minimal debt obligations, it could also indicate missed opportunities to leverage debt for potential growth or tax benefits. It would be beneficial to further investigate the company's capital structure strategy and evaluate the reasons behind the consistent zero debt-to-assets ratio over the five-year period.
