Rhea AI CAL FY2025

Caleres’ dominant mechanic is margin compression: largely stable sales are carrying heavier operating costs and rising reinvestment.

The earnings deterioration has not translated one-for-one into operating cash weakness: operating cash flow was $103M in FY2025 despite a -$9.9M net loss. Yet free cash flow fell to $39M as capital spending rose from its FY2024 level, showing positive operating cash generation is being offset by heavier reinvestment.

Gross margin slipped from 44.9% to 43.0% while sales stayed broadly stable. Selling, general and administrative expense reached $1.16B, and the resulting cost-base squeeze left operating margin at just 0.2%.

Inventory reached $610M while sales remained broadly stable, suggesting a working-capital drag rather than inventory being absorbed by volume growth. The current ratio was 1.0x and the reported debt-to-equity ratio was 2.3x, describing limited short-term cushion alongside substantial liabilities relative to book equity.

Profitability
47

Caleres Inc has an operating margin of 0.2%, meaning the company retains less than $1 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 47/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is down from 5.5% the prior year.

Growth
27

Caleres Inc's revenue grew a modest 1.3% year-over-year to $2.8B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 27/100.

Leverage
29

Caleres Inc has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 2.27), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 29/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity
19

Caleres Inc's current ratio of 1.02 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 19/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.

Cash Flow
35

Caleres Inc has a free cash flow margin of 1.4%, earning a moderate score of 35/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Returns
57

Caleres Inc posts a -1.6% return on equity (ROE), meaning it loses $2 for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This results in a returns score of 57/100. This is down from 17.7% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Grey Zone
1.91

Caleres Inc scores 1.91, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. 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
2/8

Caleres Inc passes 2 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 2 of 4 profitability signals pass, no leverage/liquidity signals pass (rising debt, declining liquidity, or share dilution), neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Mixed
N/A

Caleres Inc reported a net loss of $9.9M while generating $103.2M in operating cash flow. Operations generated cash despite the loss, but with no positive earnings behind it, the ratio between the two carries no quality signal.

Interest Coverage At Risk
0.35x

Caleres Inc earns $0.35 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($6.4M vs $18.5M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
