Rhea AI ZTOEF FY2025

Revenue is growing quickly, but rising costs are compressing margins while cash generation outpaces earnings and liabilities are shrinking.

FY2025 revenue grew 15.7%, while cost of revenue grew 25.8%; the business expanded sales without retaining the economics of that growth. That squeeze cut gross margin by 6.0 percentage points, even as operating cash flow rose 9.3%, showing that cash resilience came alongside—not from—a stronger selling margin.

Operating cash flow reached $1.7B against net income of $1.3B, so reported earnings converted into more cash than they implied. Capital expenditures consumed 43.6% of operating cash flow, leaving a 13.8% free-cash-flow margin; reinvestment was meaningful but did not absorb the cash produced.

Liabilities fell 16.0% while equity rose 11.6%, indicating FY2025 growth was funded with a stronger capital base rather than added obligations. Liabilities were 26.2% of assets and the current ratio was 1.5x, indicating a less strained balance-sheet posture than the prior year.
