Rhea AI EFC FY2025 2026-10-04

Reported profits sit on a heavily financed balance sheet, while cash movements show an investment portfolio funded through continual turnover and external financing.

In FY2025, net income of $151M coexisted with operating cash flow of -$925M, showing that accounting earnings did not translate directly into cash retained. The combination of $5.1B of financing inflows and $4.1B of investing outflows points to a business managed through portfolio and funding flows rather than accumulated operating cash.

FY2025 ended with $19.4B of assets against $17.5B of liabilities. With only $1.8B of equity supporting that structure, balance-sheet financing is central to how the business operates, rather than retained profits alone.

Revenue was $336M and interest expense was $305M in FY2025. Because net income was $151M, the earnings result depends on more than revenue; financing costs are central to interpreting reported profitability.
