Rhea AI DTST FY2025

Data Storage’s reported profit now comes from items outside day-to-day operations, while liabilities remain unusually light for its asset base.

FY2025 showed net income of $19.2M alongside an operating loss of -$3.6M, which means the year’s profit did not come from the core selling engine. Because operating cash flow was -$3.2M after FY2023 had generated $3.9M, reported earnings also failed the cash-conversion test rather than turning into usable cash.

The business now looks asset-heavy rather than revenue-driven: FY2025 carried $43.0M of assets against only $1.4M of revenue, so the economics are being shaped more by balance-sheet movements than by sales volume.

Short-term obligations were modest at $2.0M against current assets of $42.6M, which gives the company strong solvency cushion despite weak operations. Yet cash itself was only $2.0M and receivables just $35K, so most of that liquidity sits in other current assets rather than in cash collected from customers.
