Companies decide how to get money either by borrowing (debt) or selling shares (equity). The cost is a big deal. Borrowing can be cheaper because you pay less in interest, and you can even deduct that from your taxes.
Being okay with taking risks matters too. If a company is cool with risks, it might borrow money to try and make more for its owners. But if a company borrows too much, it can be risky and cause problems.
How a company is already set up financially matters too. A company looks at what it already owes and figures out the best way to get more money without causing issues. They want to keep a good balance that fits their plan for growing and how much risk they can handle.
