Rhea AI ANET FY2025

Arista's fixed-cost absorption is the dominant mechanic: more sales are becoming margin expansion and cash, not proportionate overhead.

From FY2022 to FY2025, operating margin expanded from 34.9% to 42.8%, a sizable step-up in how much incremental revenue reaches operating profit. Over the same span, R&D spending rose from $728M to $1.24B, so the margin gain looks like fixed-cost absorption and expense discipline at scale rather than profit being created by cutting investment.

Cash conversion is unusually clean: FY2025 operating cash flow of $4.37B was followed by free cash flow of $4.25B, leaving very little leakage between accounting operations and spendable cash. With capex at just $120M, the model appears asset-light, which helps explain why the business can fund expansion and shareholder distributions from internally generated cash.

Liquidity eased as cash on hand moved from $2.76B to $1.96B, but that decline sits beside a much larger capital return program rather than a collapse in cash generation. A 3.0x current ratio alongside FY2025 buybacks of $1.60B suggests management is deploying surplus cash more actively while still keeping short-term obligations comfortably covered.
