Cash vs Debt
The company holds $586.0M in cash, though total debt stands at $22.67B. This level of leverage is common in the industry but worth monitoring as interest rate conditions evolve. Annual free cash flow of $2.60B supports ongoing capital allocation decisions and provides a cushion against unexpected expenses or downturns. Return on equity stands at 21.9%, which is strong for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. An ROA of 7.6% suggests reasonable efficiency in deploying the company's asset base. Revenue has been relatively flat, moving from $17.11B (2022) to $17.30B (2025).
