This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios.

Gross-margin resilience coexists with volatile operating earnings, while cash generation and debt reduction reshape the company’s financial profile.
From FY2024 to FY2025, gross margin remained nearly unchanged at36.2% versus35.9% , so the return to an operating loss was not primarily a gross-profit collapse. Meanwhile, operating cash flow of$850M still converted to only$256M of free cash flow, making reinvestment and cash allocation more consequential than the income statement alone suggests.
Debt-to-equity fell to 0.3x, while the current ratio tightened to 1.4x, indicating a less debt-dependent structure but less short-term liquidity headroom. Long-term debt declined to
