Rhea AI MDU FY2025

Capital spending has outpaced operating cash generation, leaving reported profitability increasingly dependent on balance-sheet financing.

Operating margin widened from 12.5% to 15.5% across FY2023-FY2025, yet net margin compressed from 23.0% to 10.2%. That divergence coincided with FY2025 interest expense of $108M and debt-to-equity of 0.9x, indicating financing and below-operating items absorbed more of the operating improvement.

FY2025 operating cash flow of $473M was outweighed by capital expenditures of $770M. The resulting free cash flow of -$297M indicates reinvestment consumed more cash than operations generated, even while operating income remained positive.

The current ratio fell from 1.4x in FY2021 to 0.8x in FY2025, moving current assets below current liabilities and signaling tighter short-term working-capital flexibility. Debt-to-equity reached 0.9x as long-term debt climbed to $2.5B, showing that the investment cycle is being funded with more leverage.
