Rhea AI CTDD FY2025 2026-04-22

CTDD’s earnings volatility is being driven more by balance-sheet write-downs and below-gross-profit charges than by cash generation.

Across recent years, goodwill fell by $5.7B while operating cash flow stayed above $1.7B even in the loss periods, so the deepest reported losses line up more with asset write-downs than with a cash collapse in the underlying business.

Even after a multi-year sales decline, gross margin still held at 69.5%, suggesting the pressure is not primarily coming from direct service or production costs. That makes the big earnings swings look more tied to overhead or non-cash charges than to the gross economics of each sale.

The balance sheet is lightly levered, with long-term debt of $1.7B against equity of $10.9B. Yet the jump in current ratio to 6.9x came with only $39M of cash, so improved short-term coverage did not come from a cash buildup.

Financial Health Signals

Financial health score pending refresh

We are recalculating Qwest's peer-relative financial health score against the latest fiscal year. It will appear here once the refresh completes. The signals and metrics below are current.

Piotroski F-Score Partial

3/8

Qwest passes 3 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 2 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Mixed

-1.33x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Qwest generates $-1.33 in operating cash flow ($1.8B OCF vs -$1.3B net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-11.1x

Qwest earns $-11.1 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$1.0B vs $91.0M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
