Financial Health Signals

Financial Profile 50/100

Based on FY2024 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

Sea has an operating margin of 3.9%, meaning the company retains $4 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 31/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from 1.7% the prior year.

Growth

Sea's revenue surged 28.8% year-over-year to $16.8B, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 81/100.

Leverage

Sea carries a low D/E ratio of 1.69, meaning only $1.69 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 68/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Sea's current ratio of 1.49 means current assets barely cover short-term liabilities. This tight liquidity results in a low score of 25/100, which could limit financial flexibility.

Cash Flow

Sea converts 17.6% of revenue into free cash flow ($3.0B). This strong cash generation earns a score of 69/100.

Returns

Sea generates a 5.3% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 23/100. This is up from 2.3% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Grey Zone

2.70

Sea scores 2.70, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($48.7B) relative to total liabilities ($14.1B). This signals moderate financial risk that warrants monitoring.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral

6/9

Sea passes 6 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 1 of 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

7.38x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Sea generates $7.38 in operating cash flow ($3.3B OCF vs $444.3M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage Safe

17.3x

Sea earns $17.3 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($662.2M vs $38.3M). This wide margin provides strong safety for debt servicing, even if earnings decline temporarily.
