Rhea AI SPIEF FY2022 2026-04-22

Rising sales still required external financing because thin margins and a large short-term funding gap kept the business from self-funding.

Revenue climbed to $177.5M from $138.6M over the last two valid years, yet operating cash flow remained negative throughout. Gross margin was still only 8.2% in the latest year and the current ratio only 0.4x, so added volume did not create enough internal liquidity to support the operating cycle.

The core problem is that gross profit stayed too small relative to overhead: the company produced only $14.5M of gross profit in the latest year, far below what was needed to absorb selling and administrative costs. That points less to a one-time cash mishap than to a business model where modest margin swings can sharply change operating losses.

Liquidity looks tighter than total-asset size suggests because current assets were $82.0M against current liabilities of $189.7M. With year-end cash at just $3.4M after $17.3M of financing inflow, the balance sheet shows ongoing reliance on fresh capital rather than cash generated by operations.

We are recalculating Spi Energy's peer-relative financial health score against the latest fiscal year. It will appear here once the refresh completes. The signals and metrics below are current.

Altman Z-Score Distress

-4.26

Spi Energy scores -4.26, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($3K) relative to total liabilities ($213.2M). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral

5/9

Spi Energy passes 5 of 9 financial strength tests. 2 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Low Quality

0.47x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Spi Energy generates $0.47 in operating cash flow (-$16.0M OCF vs -$33.7M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.
