Rhea AI ARTW FY2025

Art's-Way's dominant mechanic is thin operating profitability paired with volatile cash conversion and a more liquid balance-sheet structure.

By FY2025, revenue had contracted from the prior year while gross margin narrowed to 27.3%, showing that weaker activity or mix reached the cost structure rather than being fully absorbed. The gap between net income of $1.0M and operating cash flow of -$904K indicates reported earnings were not translating into cash generated by operations.

The current ratio improved from 2.0x in FY2024 to 2.3x in FY2025, indicating stronger short-term accounting coverage despite the year's cash outflow. Total liabilities were $9.2M against $13.3M of equity, a less debt-dependent posture than earlier periods; however, the supplied liquidity comparison was only 0.1 months of reported annual outflow.

Inventory stood at $11.7M, roughly half of FY2025 revenue, making working capital a central use of resources in this business. Free cash flow was -$1.5M after $628K of capital expenditures, suggesting cash absorption extended beyond physical reinvestment and into operating assets.

Leverage
30

Art's-Way Manufacturing has a moderate D/E ratio of 0.17. This balance of debt and equity financing earns a leverage score of 30/100.

Liquidity

Piotroski F-Score Weak
3/9

Earnings Quality No Cash Backing

For every $1 of reported earnings, Art's-Way Manufacturing used $0.87 of operating cash (-$904K OCF vs $1.0M net income). Earnings that no cash stands behind rest on accounting accruals, which cannot be repeated indefinitely.

Interest Coverage At Risk
0.79x

Art's-Way Manufacturing earns $0.79 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($289K vs $367K). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
