Rhea AI CBRL FY2026 2026-10-04

The business protects gross margin, but weaker sales and costs consuming more revenue pushed core profitability below break-even.

Between FY2024 and FY2026, gross margin edged from 68.7% to 69.1% while operating margin moved from 1.3% to -0.4%. The widening gap points to pressure in the cost structure below gross profit, rather than deteriorating product economics, driving the decline.

In FY2026, operating cash flow was $206M versus net income of $32M, so operations produced far more cash than the bottom line suggests. Capital spending of $118M then consumed more than half of that cash, leaving $88M of free cash flow; cash generation is therefore closely tied to reinvestment levels.

The balance sheet is short-term tight: the current ratio was 0.6x, meaning current assets were below current liabilities. Yet debt-to-equity improved from 1.1x in FY2024 to 0.7x in FY2026, suggesting leverage reduction did not translate into broad working-capital flexibility.

Interest Coverage At Risk
