The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 1.41, which may indicate financial risk and could affect its ability to manage debt obligations effectively.
Energy Transfer LP's revenue for the latest quarter was down 2.8% year-over-year, which could signal challenges in maintaining growth in a competitive market.

Despite a positive earnings report, the revenue fell short of analysts' expectations, which could raise concerns about future performance and market conditions.
