Financial Profile 46/100

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

Profitability

Zscaler has an operating margin of -4.8%, meaning the company retains $-5 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 12/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -5.6% the prior year.

Growth

Zscaler's revenue surged 23.3% year-over-year to $2.7B, reflecting rapid business expansion. This strong growth earns a score of 72/100.

Leverage

Zscaler has a moderate D/E ratio of 2.28. This balance of debt and equity financing earns a leverage score of 55/100.

Liquidity

Zscaler's current ratio of 1.82 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 32/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.

Cash Flow

100

Zscaler converts 30.2% of revenue into free cash flow ($808.2M). This strong cash generation earns a score of 100/100.

5/9

Zscaler passes 5 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Mixed

-23.45x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Zscaler generates $-23.45 in operating cash flow ($972.5M OCF vs -$41.5M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-13.5x

Zscaler earns $-13.5 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$128.5M vs $9.5M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
