Rhea AI AAP FY2025

Revenue has shrunk for four years, while margins briefly collapsed and debt rose, leaving recovery dependent on rebuilding cash generation.

Gross margin rebounded to 43.4% in FY2025, yet operating margin stayed at -0.5%, so improved merchandise economics did not reach operating profit. Operating cash flow turned negative at -$46M while free cash flow was -$298M, indicating cash conversion weakened even as reported net income was positive.

Debt-to-equity climbed to 1.6x in FY2025 from 0.3x in FY2021. Interest expense also rose to $139M from $38M, placing more financing pressure on a business whose operating margin was still negative.

Revenue fell to $8.6B in FY2025 from $11.0B in FY2021. SG&A was still $3.6B in FY2025, so the cost base did not contract in step with sales; this helps explain why gross-margin recovery has not translated into operating profit.
