Financial Health Signals

Financial Profile 53/100

Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

Lyft Inc has an operating margin of -3.0%, meaning the company retains $-3 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 16/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is down from -2.1% the prior year.

Growth

Lyft Inc's revenue grew 9.2% year-over-year to $6.3B, a solid pace of expansion. This earns a growth score of 49/100.

Leverage

Lyft Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 0.31, meaning only $0.31 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 96/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Lyft Inc's current ratio of 0.65 means current assets barely cover short-term liabilities. This tight liquidity results in a low score of 7/100, which could limit financial flexibility.

Returns

100

Lyft Inc earns a strong 86.9% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $87 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 100/100. This is up from 3.0% the prior year.

Piotroski F-Score Weak

3/9

Lyft Inc passes 3 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, no leverage/liquidity signals pass (rising debt, declining liquidity, or share dilution), neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Low Quality

0.41x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Lyft Inc generates $0.41 in operating cash flow ($1.2B OCF vs $2.8B net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-9.1x

Lyft Inc earns $-9.1 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$188.4M vs $20.8M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
