Rhea AI RPM FY2026 2026-10-04

Margins have widened and cash conversion remains positive, but FY2026 growth produced less profit while short-term liquidity tightened.

Cash conversion held up in FY2026: operating cash flow of $899M exceeded net income of $662M, so reported earnings still translated into cash even as profit softened. Free cash flow of $675M remained well above the FY2022 deficit, but below FY2024’s $908M, indicating cash generation is positive yet uneven rather than purely tied to net-income growth.

Gross margin rose from 36.3% in FY2022 to 41.4% in FY2026, a durable margin step-up that suggests a more favorable cost or revenue mix rather than simple top-line expansion. Profit conversion was less consistent: FY2026 SG&A rose alongside revenue, while net margin slipped from 9.4% in FY2025 to 8.4%, showing overhead absorbed part of the gross-margin benefit.

Debt relative to equity declined from 0.9x in FY2025 to 0.6x in FY2026, reducing balance-sheet leverage. Short-term liquidity moved the other way: the current ratio fell from 2.2x to 1.7x, so near-term obligations became a larger claim on current resources even as long-term leverage improved.
