Financial Health Score 36/100

Scored against operating companies for FY2025. Each of the six dimensions is a percentile rank within that peer group, and the overall is the average of the dimensions that can be computed. A high score means strong standing among peers, not absolute cross-industry strength. How this score is calculated →

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of GDS Holdings Limited's business: profitability, growth, balance sheet strength. It doesn't tell you whether the stock is a good buy at today's price. Not financial advice. Use it alongside valuation analysis and your own research.

Profitability
21

GDS Holdings Limited has an operating margin of -0.5%, meaning the company loses less than $1 on every $100 of revenue. This results in a profitability score of 21/100. This is down from 11.2% the prior year.

Growth
62

GDS Holdings Limited's revenue surged 15.6% year-over-year to $1.6B, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 62/100.

Leverage
24

GDS Holdings Limited has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 0.91), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 24/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity
72

With a current ratio of 2.60, GDS Holdings Limited holds $2.60 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 72/100.

Cash Flow
12

While GDS Holdings Limited generated $481.2M in operating cash flow, capex of $670.8M consumed most of it, leaving -$189.6M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 12/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.

Returns
23

GDS Holdings Limited generates a 3.7% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 23/100. This is down from 15.3% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Distress
0.58

GDS Holdings Limited scores 0.58, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is pulled down most by an accumulated deficit of $728.5M against total assets of $11.4B. 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.

Piotroski F-Score Partial
7/8

GDS Holdings Limited passes 7 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, all 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed
3.54x

For every $1 of reported earnings, GDS Holdings Limited generates $3.54 in operating cash flow ($481.2M OCF vs $135.8M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage At Risk
N/A

GDS Holdings Limited reported an operating loss of $8.0M against $40.9M in interest expense. There is no operating profit to cover interest, so interest must be met from cash reserves or from financing rather than from operations.
