Ambow Education Holding Ltd. (AMBO) reported $9.5M in revenue for fiscal year 2025, up 0.8% from the prior fiscal year. This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios.

AMBO reached operating profitability through much better gross margins and lower overhead, not through meaningful revenue growth.
From FY2023 to FY2025, revenue stayed roughly flat while gross margin rose from27.2% to54.8% ; that points to a cost-structure or sales-mix shift rather than scale-driven growth. The accounting improvement outran cash generation: FY2025 net income was$1.4M versus operating cash flow of only$137K , so reported profit did not convert cleanly into cash.

Ambow Education Holding Ltd. has an operating margin of 1.2%, meaning the company retains $1 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 22/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -7.7% the prior year.
Ambow Education Holding Ltd.'s revenue grew a modest 0.8% year-over-year to $9.5M. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 36/100.
Ambow Education Holding Ltd. has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 0.33), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 5/100, reflecting increased financial risk.
Ambow Education Holding Ltd.'s current ratio of 2.20 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 64/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.
While Ambow Education Holding Ltd. generated $137K in operating cash flow, capex of $600K consumed most of it, leaving -$463K in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 23/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.
Ambow Education Holding Ltd. generates a 16.5% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 23/100. This is up from 4.6% the prior year.
Ambow Education Holding Ltd. scores -33.20, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($5.3M) relative to total liabilities ($12.5M). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

For every $1 of reported earnings, Ambow Education Holding Ltd. generates $0.10 in operating cash flow ($137K OCF vs $1.4M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.
Ambow Education Holding Ltd. earns $1.09 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($112K vs $103K). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
