Hi everyone, I saw some companies like Domino's and McDonald's have a negative D/E ratio because of huge share buybacks.Can someone please explain to me how buybacks reduce shareholder's equity?Also, if I were to use these comps to unlever the beta using the negative D/E ratio, how would I go about this?
