Dear friend,
The propensity score matching estimator is aimed at working out the average treatment effect for the treated, att, and in its first step it works out the probability of being treated, ie of having issued debt in your case. Therefore, unless you are interested in the att you do not need to use PSM, you may simply run a logit or probit reg. Hope this helps.

Oggetto: st: Propensity score matching in stata
Hi all,
I have a concern regarding the propensity score matching.
I have a list of companies that issue debt between 2007 and 2011. My aim
is to match those companies with those companies which have not issued
debt between 2007 and 2011 and investigate the probability of issuing
debt.
Can anyone tell me if the propensity score matching is an appropriate
estimation in my case? If so, which command I can use in stata to match
those companies with industry and size?
Best,
ELN
