Key Takeaways The debt-to-equity ratio shows the proportion of equity and debt a company is using to finance its assets and signals the extent to which shareholder's equity can fulfill obligations to creditors, in the event of a business decline.
The more a company's operations are funded by borrowed money, the greater the risk of bankruptcy, if the business hits hard times.
Debt can also be helpful, in facilitating a company's healthy expansion. Article Sources. Investopedia requires writers to use primary sources to support their work.

Michelle Guish Casting. View All Critic Reviews Nov 26, An impressively shot but ultimately dissatisfying exercise in getting revenge on the Nazis for their crimes against humanity, with this story taking focus on a sadistic doctor Jesper Christensen who fled Germany after ruthlessly operating and experimenting on the many Jews that came through the concentration camps.
After twenty years, his whereabouts are discovered, and three agents Jessica Chastain, Marton Csokas, and Sam Worthington are sent to capture him and bring him to justice. The movie constantly shifts between flashbacks of the agents, their mission, and the problems they face, to thirty years later when they are older played by Helen Mirren, Tom Wilkinson, and Ciaran Hinds, respectively and wear a distinct look of regret on all of their faces for some unknown reason until the film's middle-section explains why.
These shifts in time create an uneasy balance despite the excitement the flashback scenes hold, including what may be the best Sam Worthington performance to date. It is not a terrible movie, but it could have been so much more with better direction and overall better construction of the story and how to tell it. The acting is expectedly top-notch, which gives the story life when in most cases it would start to lose its audience, but by the end of the film, you can not help but be a little disappointed that a fascinating story like this was not better executed.
Dan S Super Reviewer. Jan 16, But this film is an entertaining, well acted and pleasantly witty espionage thriller. It deserves loads of praise for boasting a unique premise however I struggled to see how it was living up to it's full potential. Due to it's confusing narrative The Debt brought about a severe case of self-aggrandizing ambition overdose. It never knows when to cool down and too often switches it's genres aimlessly.
It begins as a character drama, then becomes the thriller it wanted to be, then a fish out of water romance and finally a drama again. It's one of those films that never knows when it's on the right track.
Consequently various plot holes start to appear among cliched character development and eventually a sense of self indulgence. But what saves it is terrifically outstanding performances from it's solid, talented cast and some very cleverly paced action thrills. Helen Mirren and Jessica Chastain are naturally brilliant despite being on autopilot. Sam Worthington is the weirdest surprise as he actually proves that he can act. Some dull and lifeless forerunner performances make this particular role stand out.
After it's confusing start, unexpected plot twists flesh out the suspense, although it could have beneffited as a whole if it the plot was linear. So it's by far and away not a masterpiece as it lacks any outstanding moments that will stay in memory but overall the simplicity of it's intrigue underneath the baggage of it's running time and entirely unnecessary time twists is a really thoughtful and fun thriller idea that I would definitely recommend seeing at least once.
I suppose the fact that you can't say much about it goes to prove just how unremarkable it is. Directors C Super Reviewer. Jan 04,
