So it might be obvious that you need to consider debt, when you think about how risky any given stock is, because too much debt can sink a company.

Generally speaking, debt only becomes a real problem when a company can't easily pay it off, either by raising capital or with its own cash flow. If things get really bad, the lenders can take control of the business. While that is not too common, we often do see indebted companies permanently diluting shareholders because lenders force them to raise capital at a distressed price.

The first thing to do when considering how much debt a business uses is to look at its cash and debt together. View our latest analysis for Becton Dickinson As you can see b Show less Read more
