Rhea AI CATY FY2025 2026-10-04

Cathay’s earnings recovered in FY2025, while liabilities—not long-term debt—remain the main funding structure and cash generation tracks reported profit.

In FY2025, operating cash flow of $368.6M exceeded net income of $315.1M, indicating that accounting earnings were accompanied by cash generation. Free cash flow of $363.7M remained close to operating cash flow while capital expenditures were only $4.9M, pointing to a low-reinvestment model in the reported figures.

The balance sheet grew in FY2025: assets reached $24.2B while liabilities reached $21.3B, meaning expansion was funded mainly by the liability side rather than by a proportionate increase in equity. That structure is not primarily long-term-debt driven: debt-to-equity was 0.0407x, and long-term debt was $119M, so other liabilities appear central to financing.

Profit recovered from $286.0M in FY2024 to $315.1M in FY2025, but remained below its FY2022 level. Return on assets was 1.3% in FY2025 versus 1.6% in FY2022, showing that profitability has recovered only partially relative to the size of the asset base.
