Rhea AI APLS FY2025

The business moved from cash-consuming development to positive earnings in FY2025, but working-capital needs expanded alongside sales growth.

In FY2025, operating cash flow of $45.3M exceeded net income of $22.4M, so reported profit was accompanied by cash generation. That contrasts with FY2024, when operating cash flow was -$87.9M against a net loss of $197.9M, making the improvement an earnings-quality shift rather than merely an accounting change.

Revenue reached $1.0B in FY2025 after $781.4M in FY2024, a scale shift that changed the cost structure rather than merely adding sales. Operating margin moved from -21.1% to 5.5% over the same period, showing that added sales covered operating costs more efficiently.

The balance sheet became more working-capital-intensive: receivables rose from $206.4M in FY2023 to $366.2M in FY2025, tying more resources to sales even as cash flow turned positive. The current ratio fell from 4.3x to 3.1x, indicating less short-term cushion as current liabilities reached $323.6M.

Altman Z-Score Grey Zone
2.42

Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. scores 2.42, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($5.3B) relative to total liabilities ($705.1M). 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
5/7

Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. passes 5 of 7 computable financial strength tests (2 of the nine could not be computed from available data). All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), no leverage/liquidity signals pass (rising debt, declining liquidity, or share dilution), both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed
2.02x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. generates $2.02 in operating cash flow ($45.3M OCF vs $22.4M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage At Risk
1.25x

Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. earns $1.25 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($55.4M vs $44.3M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
