Financial Health Signals
Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores
Trueblue has an operating margin of -2.9%, meaning the company retains $-3 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 16/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -5.9% the prior year.
Trueblue's revenue grew a modest 3.1% year-over-year to $1.6B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 39/100.
Trueblue carries a low D/E ratio of 0.24, meaning only $0.24 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 97/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.
Trueblue's current ratio of 2.15 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 39/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.
While Trueblue generated -$58.0M in operating cash flow, capex of $15.7M consumed most of it, leaving -$73.7M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 14/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.
Trueblue generates a -17.5% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 0/100. This is up from -39.9% the prior year.
Trueblue passes 3 of 9 financial strength tests. 1 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.
For every $1 of reported earnings, Trueblue generates $1.21 in operating cash flow (-$58.0M OCF vs -$48.0M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.
