This page shows Viasat Inc (VSAT) financial statements, including the income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 18 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).

Rhea AI VSAT FY2025

Viasat's numbers show a cash-generating operating base whose heavy financing load still keeps reported earnings negative.

From FY2024 to FY2025, operating cash flow improved from $688M to $908M even though net income stayed negative. With interest expense still at $422M, the business is behaving more like a cash-producing asset network whose financing load keeps accounting earnings under pressure.

The sharp move in operating margin from -20.8% in FY2024 to -2.2% in FY2025 lines up with a much lower SG&A burden, suggesting cost structure normalization mattered more than simple top-line growth. FY2023's profit spike looks less like a new earnings level than an exception, because operating margins stayed negative on both sides of it and cash flow never translated into free cash flow.

The balance sheet is not showing a near-term cash squeeze: cash of $1.61B and a current ratio of 1.7x provide room to operate. That matters because investing cash outflow was $758M in FY2025 against operating cash flow of $908M, so much of the cash the assets generate is still being recycled back into the system rather than released.

Profitability
14

Viasat Inc has an operating margin of 2.3%, meaning the company retains $2 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 14/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -2.2% the prior year.

Growth
40

Viasat Inc's revenue grew a modest 2.7% year-over-year to $4.6B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 40/100.

Leverage
74

Viasat Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 1.37, meaning only $1.37 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 74/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity
45

Viasat Inc's current ratio of 2.41 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 45/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.

Returns
0

Viasat Inc generates a -0.7% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 0/100. This is up from -12.6% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Distress
0.96

Viasat Inc scores 0.96, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($9.2B) relative to total liabilities ($10.5B). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral
6/9

Viasat Inc passes 6 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Mixed
-46.64x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Viasat Inc generates $-46.64 in operating cash flow ($1.6B OCF vs -$34.1M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.

Interest Coverage At Risk
0.3x

Viasat Inc earns $0.3 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($108.1M vs $360.3M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
