Rhea AI ACCO FY2025 2026-10-24

Profitability returned despite shrinking sales, but cash generation weakened as working capital absorbed funds and leverage remained meaningful.

The earnings-cash gap widened: net income recovered from a $101.6M loss in FY2024 while operating cash flow fell 53.6% in FY2025. The recovery therefore did not translate into more cash; inventory and receivables increased while current liabilities declined, consistent with working capital absorbing cash.

Revenue fell 8.5% in FY2025, yet operating margin reached 6.0%. SG&A fell 5.2% while gross margin slipped 0.5 percentage points, so the rebound is better explained by overhead control than stronger product economics.

Liabilities were 70.5% of assets and debt-to-equity was 1.2x in FY2025, indicating a debt-supported balance sheet rather than an asset-light one. The current ratio improved from 1.5x in FY2024 to 1.6x in FY2025. Equity rose 9.7% while liabilities fell 2.1%, showing balance-sheet repair alongside continued leverage.

Financial Health Signals

Financial Health Score (5 of 6 dimensions) 29/100

Scored against operating companies for FY2025. Each of the six dimensions is a percentile rank within that peer group, and the overall is the average of the dimensions that can be computed: here 5 of 6, with the others left out rather than counted as zero. A high score means strong standing among peers, not absolute cross-industry strength. How this score is calculated →

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of Acco Brands Corporation's business: profitability, growth, balance sheet strength. It doesn't tell you whether the stock is a good buy at today's price. Not financial advice. Use it alongside valuation analysis and your own research.

Profitability

Acco Brands Corporation has an operating margin of 6.0%, meaning the company retains $6 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 36/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from -2.2% the prior year.

Growth

Acco Brands Corporation's revenue declined 8.5% year-over-year, from $1.7B to $1.5B. This contraction results in a growth score of 11/100.

Leverage

Acco Brands Corporation has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 1.21), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 13/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity

Acco Brands Corporation's current ratio of 1.61 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 47/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.

Cash Flow

n/a

Not available for Acco Brands Corporation, so it is left out of the overall score, which averages the 5 of 6 dimensions that can be computed.

Returns

Acco Brands Corporation's ROE of 6.2% shows moderate profitability relative to equity, earning a score of 36/100. This is up from -16.8% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Distress

0.70

Acco Brands Corporation scores 0.70, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is pulled down most by an accumulated deficit of $675.3M against total assets of $2.3B. This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral

6/9

Acco Brands Corporation passes 6 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

1.66x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Acco Brands Corporation generates $1.66 in operating cash flow ($68.7M OCF vs $41.3M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage Adequate

2.02x

Acco Brands Corporation earns $2.02 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($92.3M vs $45.8M). This adequate coverage means the company can meet its interest obligations, but has limited cushion if earnings fall.
