Rhea AI TSN FY2025

Tyson’s earnings engine is being shaped less by sales growth than by thin-margin recovery, which decides how much cash survives after reinvestment.

The move from -$187M of free cash flow in FY2023 to $1.2B in FY2025 reflects capital-spending restraint more than a full profit recovery. Capex was nearly cut in half to $978M from $1.9B, while operating income in FY2025 still sat well below the pre-downturn level, so cash improved faster than the core margin engine did.

Revenue stayed clustered around the low-$50B range from FY2022 through FY2025, which means scale was not the main swing factor. Gross margin collapsed to 5.0% in FY2023 from 12.5% in FY2022, and the FY2025 level still points to only a partial rebuild of the processing spread, so modest cost or mix changes can reshape profit quickly.

Management used the recovered cash stream to delever: long-term debt fell to $7.9B from $9.7B in FY2025. But cash also eased to $1.2B and the current ratio slipped to 1.6x, so the balance sheet is cleaner at the long end while day-to-day liquidity is less padded than it was in FY2024.

Profitability
41

Tyson Foods has an operating margin of 2.0%, meaning the company retains $2 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 41/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is down from 2.6% the prior year.

Growth

Leverage
23

Tyson Foods has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 0.44), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 23/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity
42

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

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
