Growth
100

SOUNDHOUND AI INC's revenue surged 99.4% year-over-year to $168.9M, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 100/100.

Leverage
92

SOUNDHOUND AI INC carries a low D/E ratio of 0.48, meaning only $0.48 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 92/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity
91

With a current ratio of 4.59, SOUNDHOUND AI INC holds $4.59 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 91/100.

While SOUNDHOUND AI INC generated -$98.2M in operating cash flow, capex of $902K consumed most of it, leaving -$99.1M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.

Earnings Quality Low Quality
7.01x

For every $1 of reported earnings, SOUNDHOUND AI INC generates $7.01 in operating cash flow (-$98.2M OCF vs -$14.0M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.

Interest Coverage At Risk
-34.7x
