Rhea AI CSGP FY2025

CoStar’s gross-profit engine remains strong, but overhead growth and purchase-built assets now consume most of the earnings benefit.

Across the last three years, gross margin stayed near 80.0% while operating margin ended FY2025 at -2.2%, so the squeeze sits below gross profit rather than in the core service economics. Even with just $6.5M of net income in FY2025, operating cash flow was $430M, showing reported earnings are being depressed more by non-cash charges and overhead than by a collapse in cash collections.

Free cash flow turned back positive at $123M in FY2025 not because profits recovered, but because capital spending fell to $307M after an unusually heavy FY2024. That means recent cash generation depends more on reinvestment intensity than on margin recovery.

Balance-sheet posture changed more than the debt line suggests: goodwill rose to $4.9B while cash dropped to $1.6B, indicating expansion was funded largely with existing liquidity rather than new borrowing. Debt stayed near $1.0B, but the current ratio falling to 2.8x shows the company is less cash-rich than it looked a few years ago.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed
N/A

Costar Group Inc reported $6.5M of net income while generating $430.0M in operating cash flow. The ratio between the two is outside the range this page publishes as a per-dollar figure, so both figures are given instead.

Interest Coverage At Risk
N/A

Costar Group Inc reported an operating loss of $72.0M against $28.0M in interest expense. There is no operating profit to cover interest, so interest must be met from cash reserves or from financing rather than from operations.
