Rhea AI LIND FY2025

Operating recovery is real, but debt service still consumes it, leaving a business that throws off cash yet reports losses.

Operating income climbed from $10.6M to $45.5M over the recent recovery while interest expense barely moved, so the core business is improving without yet escaping its financing burden. The result is an earnings-versus-cash gap: operating cash flow reached $111.6M and free cash flow held at $63.8M even though net income stayed negative.

Margin expansion appears to be coming from better fixed-cost absorption, not just expense cuts: gross margin reached 45.8% and SG&A grew more slowly than revenue, so each new dollar of sales carried more operating profit. That is the signature of a business with meaningful overhead finally spreading that cost base across a larger revenue pool.

Balance-sheet repair is lagging the income and cash-flow improvement: cash rose to $256.7M, but shareholders’ equity remained at -$284.5M, meaning past losses still leave liabilities above assets. A current ratio of 0.8x alongside $662.7M of long-term debt means liquidity has improved, but the company is still operating with a thin short-term cushion and meaningful financing dependence.

Profitability
32

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc has an operating margin of 5.9%, meaning the company retains $6 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 32/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from 3.3% the prior year.

Growth
61

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc's revenue surged 19.6% year-over-year to $771.0M, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 61/100.

Leverage
0

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of -2.33), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity
11

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc's current ratio of 0.80 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 11/100. However, the company holds substantial cash reserves (56% of current liabilities), which buffers actual liquidity risk. Large mature operators often run tight current ratios by design.

Cash Flow
42

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc has a free cash flow margin of 8.3%, earning a moderate score of 42/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Altman Z-Score Distress
0.90

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc scores 0.90, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($1.3B) relative to total liabilities ($1.1B). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Piotroski F-Score Strong
7/9

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc passes 7 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Mixed
-3.22x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc generates $-3.22 in operating cash flow ($111.6M OCF vs -$34.6M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.

Interest Coverage At Risk
1.0x

Lindblad Expeditions Hldgs Inc earns $1.0 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($45.5M vs $45.2M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
