Rhea AI KBR FY2026 2026-05-05

Margin expansion and light reinvestment needs are turning steady revenue into increasingly larger cash output.

From FY2023 to FY2026, revenue rose about 11.9%, but operating margin widened from 6.5% to 10.0% and free cash flow nearly doubled from $269M to $515M, so the improvement came more from better economics per dollar of revenue than from simple volume growth. Because FY2026 capital spending was only $42M against $557M of operating cash flow, most of that gain stayed available for buybacks, dividends, and debt reduction rather than being consumed by the asset base.

FY2023's net loss of -$265M did not coincide with an operating cash drain: operating cash flow was still $331M and operating margin was already 6.5%. That gap suggests reported earnings were noisier than cash generation, which makes the later rebound to $415M of net income in FY2026 look more like earnings normalization than the creation of a new cash engine.

The balance sheet is serviceable rather than surplus-heavy: the current ratio improved from 1.1x in FY2025 to 1.2x in FY2026, and debt-to-equity eased from 1.9x to 1.7x. But goodwill of $2.7B still exceeds total equity of $1.5B, so a large portion of book value rests on acquired intangible assets instead of tangible balance-sheet cushion.

Financial Health Signals

Financial Health Score 50/100

Scored against operating companies for FY2026. Each of the six dimensions is a percentile rank within that peer group; the overall is their average, with missing dimensions counted as zero out of six. 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 KBR'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

KBR has an operating margin of 10.0%, meaning the company retains $10 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This strong profitability earns a score of 66/100, reflecting efficient cost management and pricing power. This is up from 8.6% the prior year.

Growth

KBR's revenue grew a modest 1.0% year-over-year to $7.8B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 54/100.

Leverage

KBR has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 1.60), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 28/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity

KBR's current ratio of 1.16 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 27/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.

Cash Flow

KBR has a free cash flow margin of 6.6%, earning a moderate score of 51/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Returns

KBR earns a strong 26.2% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $26 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 76/100. This is down from 26.5% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Grey Zone

2.53

KBR scores 2.53, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. This signals moderate financial risk that warrants monitoring.

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

Piotroski F-Score Strong

9/9

KBR passes 9 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), all 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

1.34x

For every $1 of reported earnings, KBR generates $1.34 in operating cash flow ($557.0M OCF vs $415.0M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage Adequate

4.9x

KBR earns $4.9 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($778.0M vs $158.0M). This adequate coverage means the company can meet its interest obligations, but has limited cushion if earnings fall.
