Rhea AI IHS FY2025

IHS returned to profit and increased cash generation in FY2025, but accumulated losses still leave the balance sheet with negative equity.

FY2025 net income was $126.8M, far below operating cash flow of $936.2M and free cash flow of $718.7M. After two years of large accounting losses, this shows reported earnings and cash generation can diverge sharply rather than describing the business through profit alone.

Revenue was nearly flat between FY2024 and FY2025, yet the company moved from a net loss to net income. That turnaround reflects a change in profitability mechanics rather than sales growth; free-cash-flow margin also rose from 32.4% to 45.4%.

Negative equity of $89.8M in FY2025 follows positive equity of $328.7M in FY2023, indicating that accumulated losses have eroded book capital. This creates a split balance-sheet picture: the current ratio was 2.1x, while total liabilities still exceeded total assets.
