Margin repair rather than sales growth is doing most of the work, while a heavy interest burden keeps profits pinned down.
Over the last two years, sales were essentially flat, yet gross margin widened from10.3% to11.9% and free cash flow stayed positive; that points to better cost absorption and lower reinvestment drag rather than a volume-led recovery. Even so, FY2025 operating income of$86.6M still sat below interest expense of$114.7M , which is why much stronger operations only translated into near-breakeven net income.
This business is now converting operations into cash better than accounting earnings suggest: FY2025 net loss was only
The balance sheet still carries a solvency overhang, not a day-to-day cash squeeze: the current ratio remained a usable 1.3x, but equity stayed negative and long-term debt was

Cooper-Standard Holdings has an operating margin of 3.2%, meaning the company retains $3 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 35/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from 2.6% the prior year.
Cooper-Standard Holdings's revenue grew a modest 0.4% year-over-year to $2.7B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 28/100.
Cooper-Standard Holdings's current ratio of 1.30 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 33/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.
While Cooper-Standard Holdings generated $64.4M in operating cash flow, capex of $48.2M consumed most of it, leaving $16.3M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 31/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.
Cooper-Standard Holdings scores 1.57, below the 1.81 distress threshold. This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Cooper-Standard Holdings passes 5 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.
Cooper-Standard Holdings reported a net loss of $4.2M while generating $64.4M 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.
Cooper-Standard Holdings earns $0.76 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($86.6M vs $114.7M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
