Rhea AI SCVL FY2026

FY2026 shows a shrinking sales base with gross-margin recovery, but overhead growth is consuming more of each dollar.

From FY2024 to FY2026, revenue fell -3.4% while SG&A rose 6.3%, revealing a sales-cost mismatch. The resulting operating-margin compression means improved gross margin did not reach operating profit because overhead did not flex with sales.

FY2026 operating cash flow of $71.3M exceeded net income of $52.3M, so accounting profit still converted to cash. Compared with FY2025, operating cash flow fell 30.5% while free cash flow fell 61.7%, showing reinvestment amplified the deterioration in cash available afterward.

The balance sheet is less creditor-funded: liabilities were 41.9% of assets in FY2026, down from 47.1% in FY2022. Meanwhile, current liquidity was 4.0x against inventory of $417M, suggesting short-term coverage is comfortable on paper while resources remain tied to merchandise.
