about how risky any given stock is, because too much debt can sink a company. We can see that Merck & Co., Inc. NYSE:MRK ) does use debt in its business. But the more important question is: how much risk is that debt creating? Why Does Debt Bring Risk? 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. Ultimately, if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt, shareholders could walk away with nothing. However, a more common (but still painful) scenario is that it has to raise new equity capital at a low price, thus permanently diluting shareholders. By replacing dilution, though, debt can be an extremely good tool for businesses that need capital to invest in growth at high rates of return. The first thing to do when considering how much debt a business uses is to look at its cash and debt together. See our latest analysis for Merck What Is Merck's Debt? As you
