Rhea AI COHU FY2025 2026-05-01

Revenue contraction left a largely fixed operating cost base exposed, while debt-funded balance-sheet expansion reshaped the company's financing mix.

From FY2021 to FY2025, combined SG&A and R&D stayed near $216M versus $219M, showing the overhead base did not shrink much with demand. With gross margin still at 42.8% in FY2025, the step-down from a 22.7% operating margin in FY2021 to a loss in FY2025 looks more like under-absorbed overhead on a smaller revenue base than a breakdown in product-level economics.

FY2025 free cash flow turned positive at $10.7M despite a net loss of -$74.3M, so cash improved faster than earnings. That pattern usually means working-capital release helped bridge the gap: inventory fell to $129M from $142M, which lifts cash now but does not by itself restore margin.

The balance sheet is still liquid in the near term—cash of $227.1M is more than double current liabilities of $109.1M. But FY2025 also marked a clear shift in financing, with debt-to-equity rising to 0.4x from 0.0x and making the company more dependent on external capital than a year earlier.

Financial Health Score 41/100

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 Cohu Inc'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

Cohu Inc has an operating margin of -15.4%, meaning the company retains $-15 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 16/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -17.8% the prior year.

Growth

Cohu Inc's revenue grew 12.7% year-over-year to $453.0M, a solid pace of expansion. This earns a growth score of 7/100.

Leverage

Cohu Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 0.36, meaning only $0.36 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 66/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

With a current ratio of 6.88, Cohu Inc holds $6.88 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 94/100.

Cash Flow

Cohu Inc has a free cash flow margin of 2.4%, earning a moderate score of 40/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Returns

Cohu Inc generates a -9.5% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 23/100. This is down from -8.2% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Safe

4.22

Cohu Inc scores 4.22, well above the 2.99 safe threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($2.5B) relative to total liabilities ($457.4M). This indicates low bankruptcy risk based on profitability, leverage, and asset efficiency.

Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral

4/9

Cohu Inc passes 4 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Mixed

-0.43x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Cohu Inc generates $-0.43 in operating cash flow ($31.7M OCF vs -$74.3M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-34.0x

Cohu Inc earns $-34.0 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$69.8M vs $2.1M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
