Rhea AI CNOB FY2025

The 2025 expansion enlarged the balance sheet faster than profits, leaving returns lower despite higher reported revenue.

Assets expanded 41.7% from FY2024 to FY2025, while net income increased only 9.0%, indicating balance-sheet growth did not translate proportionally into earnings. That mismatch is visible in return on assets falling from 0.8% to 0.6%, so the larger asset base generated less profit per dollar deployed.

Liabilities grew 43.9% while equity increased 26.7%, meaning the expansion relied more heavily on obligations than on internally built capital. The debt-to-equity ratio consequently rose from 7.0x to 7.9x, showing a more leveraged balance-sheet structure.

Reported cash conversion was stronger than earnings alone suggest: operating cash flow reached $106M against net income of $80M. However, free cash flow was $101M while investing cash flow was -$186M, indicating operating cash was being redeployed substantially into investment activity rather than simply accumulating.
