Financial Health Signals
Based on FY2024 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores
ZeroStack Corp has an operating margin of -26.3%, meaning the company retains $-26 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 0/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -66.2% the prior year.
ZeroStack Corp's revenue declined 21.8% year-over-year, from $76.1M to $59.5M. This contraction results in a growth score of 0/100.
ZeroStack Corp carries a low D/E ratio of 0.00, meaning only $0.00 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 100/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.
ZeroStack Corp's current ratio of 1.05 means current assets barely cover short-term liabilities. This tight liquidity results in a low score of 22/100, which could limit financial flexibility.
While ZeroStack Corp generated -$5.0M in operating cash flow, capex of $134K consumed most of it, leaving -$5.2M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.

For every $1 of reported earnings, ZeroStack Corp generates $0.32 in operating cash flow (-$5.0M OCF vs -$15.9M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.
ZeroStack Corp earns $-73.5 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$15.6M vs $213K). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
