Rhea AI RLJ FY2025 2026-05-04

RLJ’s asset-heavy model turns modest accounting profit into much larger operating cash flow, while debt absorbs the spread.

In the latest year, operating cash flow was $244M against only $29M of net income, so the earnings drop did not reflect an equal collapse in cash coming off the asset base. Depreciation at $186M and interest expense at $112M explain much of that gap: a large non-cash charge suppresses profit, then financing costs consume a meaningful share of the cash the assets generate.

The balance sheet has not really been delevered through the recovery; long-term debt stayed near $2.2B while equity fell to $2.17B. That is why debt-to-equity moved back above 1.0x even without a borrowing surge: earnings were too thin to rebuild book value, so the capital structure now does more to limit reported profitability.

Cash ended essentially flat at about $410M, even as dividends paid rose to $91M. That stability suggests payout capacity is being funded more by recurring operating cash than by reported earnings, while the much smaller investing outflow also relieved pressure on cash.
