Rhea AI MFAO FY2025

Earnings improved while leverage rose and operating cash conversion weakened, making financing central to the business model.

Net income reached $176.8M in FY2025, but operating cash flow fell to $76.2M from FY2024. Cash conversion weakened because reported profit increased while internally generated cash moved the other way, leaving earnings less cash-backed than the prior year.

The capital structure became more leveraged: debt-to-equity rose from 5.2x in FY2024 to 6.1x in FY2025. Financing cash flow supplied $1.5B while investing used $1.8B, indicating asset deployment relied on outside funding rather than operating cash.

The profit step-up appears tied more to expense control than revenue acceleration: revenue increased only 2.9% while SG&A fell 11.3% in FY2025. Meanwhile, dividends paid were $148M versus $76M of operating cash flow, so distributions exceeded current-period cash generation.
