Traditional v. Adjusted Tab
We compare the traditional and adjusted versions of our five Credit Rating ratios over the last five years in charts, and we highlight the biggest adjustments which differentiate our adjusted ratios from traditional ratios. See image below for a sample of this research for the Debt to Capital ratio.

We present the values and a five-year chart for each of the components of the Credit Rating ratios.
