A major advantage is optimization of shareholders' wealth through mix of debt and equity, taking advantage of the U.S. tax system which favors debt financing by making interest deductible from income when calculating the company's federal tax liability.

Companies that are highly leverage in this case might find it difficult to make payments on their debt in times of trouble and also difficult to obtain additional financing from lenders.
