Rhea AI LRCX FY2026 2026-08-30

Scale-driven operating leverage is widening margins, while working-capital absorption is keeping cash growth behind earnings.

FY2026 revenue increased 26.0%, while operating margin reached 35.3%. Yet operating cash flow fell 5.1% and free cash flow fell 9.7%. Accounts receivable rose 58.1% and capital expenditures increased 27.3%, indicating that cash was absorbed by customer balances and reinvestment even as accounting profitability improved.

The margin shape is consistent with operating leverage: revenue rose 26.0% in FY2026, while operating income rose 39.0%. R&D and selling, general and administrative costs grew more slowly than sales, so additional revenue reached operating profit instead of being fully reinvested in overhead.

The balance sheet became less debt-dependent: long-term debt held at $3.7B while debt-to-equity fell to 0.3x in FY2026, showing equity growth—not debt expansion—drove the strengthening. Current ratio improved from 2.2x to 2.6x, indicating more current-asset coverage of short-term obligations despite the larger operating scale.
