Rhea AI BSFC FY2024

Shrinking revenue and increasingly loss-making sales have turned this business into a financing-dependent operation instead of a self-funding one.

The latest year pushed gross margin to -35.9%, after the prior year was only barely positive. That deterioration lined up with operating cash burn of -$6.2M on just $3.6M of revenue, showing the strain is no longer just overhead but loss-making sales combined with smaller scale.

The balance-sheet posture is tight, with equity back below zero at -$192K and liquid resources still trailing near-term obligations. Financing inflows of $6.4M effectively replaced the cash the business consumed, so day-to-day liquidity depended on outside capital rather than on operations.

Capital intensity is not the main drain: capital spending was only $102K while free cash flow was -$6.3M. That means the cash shortfall came chiefly from running the business at a loss, not from building out long-lived assets, which is a very different operating problem.

Profitability
0

Blue Star Foods has an operating margin of -80.9%, meaning the company retains $-81 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 -281.5% the prior year.

Growth
0

Blue Star Foods's revenue declined 19.5% year-over-year, from $3.6M to $2.9M. This contraction results in a growth score of 0/100.

Leverage
98

Blue Star Foods carries a low D/E ratio of -1.59, meaning only $-1.59 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 98/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity
0

Blue Star Foods's current ratio of 0.31 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 0/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.

Cash Flow
0

While Blue Star Foods generated -$675K in operating cash flow, capex of $10K consumed most of it, leaving -$684K in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral
5/9

Blue Star Foods passes 5 of 9 financial strength tests. 2 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, both operating efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Low Quality
0.19x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Blue Star Foods generates $0.19 in operating cash flow (-$675K OCF vs -$3.6M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.

Interest Coverage At Risk
-5.2x

Blue Star Foods earns $-5.2 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$2.3M vs $447K). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
