Top Companies by Total Debt — Utilities

Total debt is the sum of short-term and long-term interest-bearing borrowings on the balance sheet at the end of the most recent reported quarter — bonds, term loans, revolving credit, commercial paper, and the current portion of long-term debt. Operating liabilities like trade payables are excluded; for the broader figure see total liabilities.

Absolute debt size needs context. Pair this list with cash on hand for an intuition of net debt, and with TTM EBITDA to gauge service capacity. Capital-heavy industries — utilities, telecoms, large industrials — typically dominate the leaderboard. Values are ranked in USD at the quarter-end (closing) exchange rate (IAS 21).
