How to read this chart

Watch the trend more than the level. Declining ratio = deleveraging, growing financial flexibility. Rising ratio = increasing leverage, which constrains dividends, buybacks, and future investment.

  • Large acquisitions spike the ratio temporarily — check whether the integration plan credibly drives paydown.
