Growth

Natl Fuel Gas Co's revenue surged 17.1% year-over-year to $2.3B, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 62/100.

Leverage

Natl Fuel Gas Co carries a low D/E ratio of 0.77, meaning only $0.77 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 86/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.
