Rhea AI SQM FY2024 2026-04-22

SQM’s economics are being driven more by cash-conversion swings and self-funded reinvestment than by balance-sheet leverage.

By the latest year, revenue had reset to $4.53B while inventory still sat near $1.7B, so the working-capital burden shrank far more slowly than sales. With long-term debt only $61M, the earlier -$197M operating cash flow trough reads more like cash getting trapped inside operations and capex than a balance-sheet funding problem.

Even after the revenue reset, profitability remained intact: net margin was still 15.3% in the latest year. But free cash flow of just $303M against net income of $692M shows that a meaningful share of accounting profit is still being absorbed before it becomes flexible cash.

The balance sheet remains liquid and lightly levered: cash of $1.38B exceeded long-term debt of $61M. A current ratio above 2x means short-term obligations are being covered by working assets, which gives the company room to absorb volatile operating conditions without leaning much on lenders.
