Rhea AI KFY FY2025 2026-06-26

Korn Ferry’s earnings engine is asset-light and margin-sensitive, with cash generation recovering faster than sales.

In the latest year, revenue was slightly lower at $2.76B, but operating margin widened to 12.5%. Free cash flow also improved to $302M from $229M. That pattern suggests expense mix and utilization matter more than raw growth; the business can restore profitability without a larger top line.

Operating cash flow of $364M comfortably exceeded net income of $246M, so reported profit was backed by cash rather than trapped in working capital. With capital spending only $62M, the firm keeps a low-reinvestment model in which much of operating cash is available for buybacks, dividends, or acquisitions.

The balance sheet looks conservative rather than debt-driven: cash of $685M exceeds long-term debt of $398M. A 2.2x current ratio and 0.2x debt-to-equity mean day-to-day funding pressure is low, so results are shaped more by demand and margin swings than by financing strain.
