Rhea AI GDEN FY2025

Profitability has deteriorated sharply despite persistent cash generation, while lower debt has not removed the business’s dependence on operating cash.

A wide gap between gross and operating margins remained in FY2025: gross margin was 92.8% versus operating margin of 3.4%, indicating that most reported pressure emerged below direct costs. Operating cash flow of $83.1M alongside a net loss of $6.0M shows that noncash charges or working-capital effects kept cash generation from moving in step with accounting earnings.

Leverage has declined over the period: debt-to-equity fell from 1.2x in FY2023 to 1.0x in FY2025, reducing balance-sheet dependence on debt. However, the current ratio also moved from 2.3x to 1.2x, leaving substantially less short-term cushion than two years earlier.

Operating margin fell from 16.8% in FY2024 to 3.4% in FY2025, so the earnings deterioration was far larger than the recent change in the business’s scale. Yet free cash flow remained positive at $35.6M, indicating that cash generation still exceeded reinvestment even as reported profitability nearly disappeared.

Profitability
53

Golden Entertainment, Inc. has an operating margin of 3.4%, meaning the company retains $3 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 53/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is down from 16.8% the prior year.

Growth
3

Golden Entertainment, Inc.'s revenue declined 4.8% year-over-year, from $666.8M to $634.9M. This contraction results in a growth score of 3/100.

Leverage
19

Golden Entertainment, Inc. has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 1.01), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 19/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity
27

Golden Entertainment, Inc.'s current ratio of 1.17 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 27/100. However, the company holds substantial cash reserves (62% of current liabilities), which buffers actual liquidity risk. Large mature operators often run tight current ratios by design.

Cash Flow

Altman Z-Score Distress
1.38

Golden Entertainment, Inc. scores 1.38, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($753.7M) relative to total liabilities ($597.2M). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.

N/A
