Debt-free companies are attractive to investors primarily because of their financial stability. Without the burden of debt obligations, these companies are less vulnerable to market fluctuations or economic downturns. They do not have to worry about servicing loans or paying high-interest rates, which can often restrict growth during challenging economic periods.
