Rhea AI BRID FY2025 2026-08-30

Bridgford’s dominant mechanic is margin compression: sales recovered, but operating costs outran gross profit and consumed cash.

FY2025 revenue recovered from FY2024, yet gross margin fell from 25.2% to 19.3%; the sales rebound therefore arrived with weaker unit economics rather than operating leverage. Gross profit of $44.6M sat below selling, general and administrative expense of $63.5M, showing why the business moved to an operating loss even without a major revenue collapse.

Debt is not the main financing pressure: FY2025 debt-to-equity was near zero, while the current ratio fell from 4.7x to 3.0x as current assets declined, narrowing short-term flexibility. That combination points to reduced liquidity cushion rather than balance-sheet dependence on borrowing.

FY2025 operating cash flow was -$5.7M and free cash flow was -$9.3M; the wider free-cash-flow shortfall indicates capital spending added to the cash need while core operations were already consuming funds. Reported liquidity equaled 1.8 months of annual outflow, making cash availability more constrained than the low debt burden suggests.

Financial Health Signals

Financial Health Score 40/100

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. A high score means strong standing among peers, not absolute cross-industry strength. How this score is calculated →

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of Bridgford Food'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.

Profitability

Bridgford Food has an operating margin of -8.1%, meaning the company loses $8 on every $100 of revenue. This results in a profitability score of 23/100. This is down from -2.8% the prior year.

Growth

Bridgford Food's revenue grew a modest 3.3% year-over-year to $231.0M. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 18/100.

Leverage

Bridgford Food carries a low D/E ratio of 0.01, meaning only $0.01 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 88/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

With a current ratio of 2.98, Bridgford Food holds $2.98 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 78/100.

Cash Flow

Bridgford Food's operations used $5.7M of cash, and capex of $3.6M added to the outflow, for a free cash flow shortfall of $9.3M. This results in a cash flow score of 20/100.

Returns

Earnings Quality No Cash Backing

N/A

Interest Coverage At Risk
