Rhea AI WWD FY2025

Woodward’s recent growth is translating into wider margins and lower leverage, but heavier reinvestment is keeping free cash flow below net income.

The earnings improvement converts into cash better than the profit line alone suggests: FY2025 operating cash flow was $471M, exceeding net income of $442M. Yet free cash flow was only $340M as capital expenditures reached $131M, showing that stronger cash conversion now coexists with a more capital-intensive growth phase.

Gross margin widened from 23.3% in FY2023 to 26.8% in FY2025. Net margin moved from 8.0% to 12.4% over the same span, so profit expanded faster than sales; without operating-margin data, the tables cannot separate mix, pricing, or cost effects.

Debt-to-equity fell from 0.3x in FY2023 to 0.2x in FY2025, showing expansion coincided with less debt dependence. FY2025 buybacks totaled $173M while free cash flow remained $340M, meaning shareholder distributions occurred alongside reinvestment without an accompanying increase in leverage.
