High Debt to Equity Stocks

Companies with debt to equity above 2 and a market cap over $300 million, the most leveraged listed firms. This is a free, ready-made stock screen on DeltaScreener that filters 5,000+ NYSE & NASDAQ stocks in real time. Stocks appear here only because they match the filters in the search query below; the screen name is a label for those criteria, not a rating of any stock. Click any company to see its full financials, or edit the filters to make the screen your own.

This list shows the most heavily leveraged companies relative to their equity, defined as debt to equity above 2, among firms worth more than $300 million. Investors look at it to understand where balance-sheet risk is concentrated, to find candidates for deeper credit analysis, or to avoid leveraged names during periods of rising rates. High ratios are normal in some industries, such as utilities, airlines and leasing companies, and buybacks can shrink equity and inflate the ratio without any new borrowing, so context matters.
