Rhea AI LION FY2026

Revenue is nearly flat, but profitability recovery remains fragile because financing costs and a balance-sheet deficit still absorb operating gains.

Operating margin improved by 4.4 percentage points in FY2026, yet the company still reported a net loss of $198M. That gap aligns with interest expense of $260M against long-term debt of $1.8B, leaving operating recovery heavily burdened by financing.

FY2026 operating income was $97M, while operating cash flow was only $25M. After capital expenditures of $13M, free cash flow was $11M, so the accounting improvement did not yet translate into much discretionary cash.

Liabilities equaled 119.7% of assets in FY2026, alongside a balance-sheet deficit and negative equity of $1.2B, meaning recorded assets did not cover creditor claims. The current ratio improved to 0.5x but remained below 1.0x, leaving short-term obligations larger than current assets.

Profitability
33

Lionsgate Studios Corp. has an operating margin of 3.7%, meaning the company retains $4 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 33/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from -0.7% the prior year.

Growth
43

Lionsgate Studios Corp.'s revenue grew a modest 1.8% year-over-year to $2.6B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 43/100.

Leverage
3
Liquidity
4

Lionsgate Studios Corp.'s current ratio of 0.49 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 4/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.

Cash Flow

Lionsgate Studios Corp. has a free cash flow margin of 0.4%, earning a moderate score of 30/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Altman Z-Score Distress
-0.44

Lionsgate Studios Corp. scores -0.44, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is pulled down most by an accumulated deficit of $3.7B against total assets of $5.3B. This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

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

Piotroski F-Score Partial
5/8

Lionsgate Studios Corp. passes 5 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, the one computable operating efficiency signal (asset turnover improving) passes.

Earnings Quality Mixed
N/A

Lionsgate Studios Corp. reported a net loss of $198.3M while generating $24.8M in operating cash flow. Operations generated cash despite the loss, but with no positive earnings behind it, the ratio between the two carries no quality signal.

Interest Coverage At Risk
0.37x

Lionsgate Studios Corp. earns $0.37 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($97.1M vs $259.7M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
