Debt can assist Roche Holding until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Roche Holding's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Roche Holding sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Roche to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Roche Holding's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
