Rhea AI ACTG FY2025

Revenue scale-up restored operating profitability while cash generation strengthened, but margins remain thin relative to the expansion.

The FY2025 rebound is more cash-backed than the FY2023 rebound: operating cash flow reached $75.2M while net income was $24.5M. In FY2023, net income of $68.9M coexisted with operating cash flow of -$22.5M, showing that accounting profit did not consistently translate into cash.

Revenue rose from $122.3M in FY2024 to $285.2M, meaning the business absorbed substantially more volume. Gross margin improved from 24.2% to 29.6%, indicating better unit economics or mix, but operating margin reached only 2.3% in FY2025, so the expanded base had not yet produced a wide operating surplus.

Assets barely changed between FY2024 and FY2025 while revenue more than doubled, indicating materially higher asset turnover rather than simple balance-sheet expansion. Debt-to-equity fell from 0.4x to 0.2x, indicating that the rebound did not depend on rising leverage.

Profitability
23

Acacia Research Corporation has an operating margin of 2.3%, meaning the company retains $2 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 23/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -26.9% the prior year.

Growth
95

Acacia Research Corporation's revenue surged 133.2% year-over-year to $285.2M, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 95/100.

Leverage
99

Acacia Research Corporation carries a low D/E ratio of 0.17, meaning only $0.17 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 99/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity
97

With a current ratio of 9.18, Acacia Research Corporation holds $9.18 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 97/100.

Cash Flow
5
Returns
26

Acacia Research Corporation generates a 4.5% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 26/100. This is up from -6.7% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Grey Zone
1.99

Acacia Research Corporation scores 1.99, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($446.0M) relative to total liabilities ($186.9M). 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.

Piotroski F-Score Partial
7/8

Acacia Research Corporation passes 7 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 1 of 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed
3.07x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Acacia Research Corporation generates $3.07 in operating cash flow ($75.2M OCF vs $24.5M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage At Risk
0.71x

Acacia Research Corporation earns $0.71 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($6.4M vs $9.0M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
