Financial Health Signals

Financial Profile 34/100

Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

Tyson Foods has an operating margin of 2.0%, meaning the company retains $2 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 10/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is down from 2.6% the prior year.

Growth

Tyson Foods's revenue grew a modest 2.1% year-over-year to $54.4B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 35/100.

Leverage

Tyson Foods carries a low D/E ratio of 0.44, meaning only $0.44 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 95/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Tyson Foods's current ratio of 1.55 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 42/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.

Cash Flow

Tyson Foods's free cash flow margin of 2.2% results in a low score of 11/100. Capital expenditures of $978.0M absorb a large share of operating cash flow.

Returns

Tyson Foods generates a 2.6% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 10/100. This is down from 4.3% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Safe

3.13

Tyson Foods scores 3.13, well above the 2.99 safe threshold. This indicates low bankruptcy risk based on profitability, leverage, and asset efficiency.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral

5/9

Tyson Foods passes 5 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 2 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

4.55x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Tyson Foods generates $4.55 in operating cash flow ($2.2B OCF vs $474.0M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage Adequate

2.4x

Tyson Foods earns $2.4 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($1.1B vs $449.0M). This adequate coverage means the company can meet its interest obligations, but has limited cushion if earnings fall.
