AECOM (ACM) reported $16.1B in revenue for fiscal year 2025, up 0.2% from the prior fiscal year. This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 15 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).
ACM turns thin gross margins into steady cash generation because capital needs stay light at roughly 4% FCF margins.
From FY2023 to FY2025, net margin rose from0.4% to3.5% and operating margin nearly tripled, yet free-cash-flow margin stayed clustered around4.2% ; the cash engine was already working before reported earnings recovered. The narrower gap between$561.8M of net income and$821.6M of operating cash flow in FY2025 versus FY2024 suggests the rebound is becoming higher-quality, with less reliance on timing differences between profit and cash.

Scored against operating companies for FY2025. Each of the six dimensions is a percentile rank within that peer group; the overall is their average, with missing dimensions counted as zero out of six.

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of AECOM'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.
AECOM has an operating margin of 6.4%, meaning the company retains $6 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 59/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from 5.1% the prior year.
AECOM's revenue grew a modest 0.2% year-over-year to $16.1B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 54/100.
AECOM has a moderate D/E ratio of 1.06. This balance of debt and equity financing earns a leverage score of 46/100.
AECOM's current ratio of 1.14 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 26/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.
AECOM has a free cash flow margin of 4.2%, earning a moderate score of 45/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.
AECOM earns a strong 22.5% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $23 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 76/100. This is up from 18.4% the prior year.
AECOM scores 2.07, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. This signals moderate financial risk that warrants monitoring.
Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.
AECOM passes 7 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.
For every $1 of reported earnings, AECOM generates $1.46 in operating cash flow ($821.6M OCF vs $561.8M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.
AECOM earns $5.57 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($1.0B vs $184.3M). This wide margin provides strong safety for debt servicing, even if earnings decline temporarily.
