Rhea AI PFG FY2025 2026-10-03

The business is balance-sheet heavy: assets expanded while earnings and asset productivity softened, leaving reported cash flow stronger than profit.

From FY2024 to FY2025, total assets rose 8.8% while revenue fell 3.1%. That widening gap coincided with ROA slipping from 0.5% to 0.4%, indicating weaker earnings productivity per asset rather than simple expansion.

Operating cash flow was about $4.6B in FY2024 and $4.5B in FY2025 despite lower earnings. For a financial company, that disconnect means balance-sheet and investment movements materially shape cash flow, so cash generation is not a direct proxy for recurring profit.

Liabilities rose 8.9% in FY2025 while long-term debt edged down 0.7%. Debt-to-equity fell to 0.3x from 0.4x, so the higher obligation base was not driven by more reported long-term borrowing; leverage is broader than debt alone. Meanwhile, shares outstanding fell 3.9% while dividends per share rose 8.1%, showing distributions continued as earnings moved lower.
