Rhea AI GASS FY2025 2026-04-28

Strong operating cash flow let the company absorb heavy reinvestment in FY2024 without rebuilding leverage.

FY2024 free cash flow fell to -$2.7M even as operating cash flow rose to $103.5M and net income reached $69.9M; the gap came from capex jumping to $106.2M from $85K in FY2023. That makes the key mechanic reinvestment timing, not weak earnings quality: profit turned into cash, then that cash was pushed back into assets.

Long-term debt dropped to $61.6M from $106.9M while cash stayed around $80.7M, so the balance sheet became more self-funded rather than more lender-funded. Lower interest expense also gave net income extra lift beyond the operating line.

Some figures from recent filings were inconsistent and were omitted from this summary.
