Solvency and debt-coverage ratios — lower is generally safer
Sempra carries a Debt/EBITDA ratio of 54.3x, which is highly leveraged (1043% above the sector average of 4.8x). Net debt stands at $37.5B ($37.5B total debt minus $2M cash). Interest coverage of just 2.8x is concerning — the company has limited headroom to absorb earnings volatility before struggling with debt service.
