Rhea AI KMT FY2026

FY2026's profit surge came with a sharp margin step-up, but working-capital investment prevented accounting earnings from becoming cash.

In FY2026, net income rose to $350M while operating cash flow fell to -$4M, so reported profitability did not translate into collected cash. Inventory expanded from $538M to $1.1B as revenue rose, pointing to working-capital absorption rather than weaker reported earnings as the main cash drain.

FY2026's much wider gross and operating margins indicate the earnings step-up involved a substantial change in economics beyond sales volume. Net margin reached 14.9% from 5.0%, showing the improvement flowed through after operating costs and taxes.

The 2.6x current ratio indicates short-term liabilities remained covered on paper, but the asset mix matters because inventory was a major component of the current-asset increase. Long-term debt rose to $685M while equity reached $1.6B, leaving leverage broadly contained at 0.4x debt-to-equity.
