Rhea AI M FY2026 2026-04-22

Macy’s is protecting cash flow through inventory and expense discipline even as sales keep drifting lower.

In the latest year, gross margin stability near 40.3% and operating-margin recovery to 4.6% arrived even though revenue was still shrinking, which points to expense control and cleaner inventory management rather than a demand-led rebound. The key tell is that SG&A fell to $8.24B, so more of each gross-profit dollar stayed above the operating line.

Cash generation is now stronger than accounting profit: operating cash flow of $1.43B against net income of $642M suggests earnings were backed by cash rather than balance-sheet accruals. With inventory reduced to $4.41B, less cash is tied up in merchandise waiting to be sold.

The balance sheet has been repaired while sales shrank: long-term debt is down to $2.43B and cash has climbed to $1.25B, reducing dependence on outside financing. A current ratio of 1.5x and debt-to-equity of 0.5x show more short-term cushion and less leverage than during the recent profit squeeze.

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of Macys Inc's business: profitability, growth, balance sheet strength. It doesn't tell you whether the stock is a good buy at today's price. Not financial advice. Use it alongside valuation analysis and your own research.

Profitability

Macys Inc has an operating margin of 4.5%, meaning the company retains $5 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 30/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is up from 4.0% the prior year.

Growth

Macys Inc's revenue declined 1.7% year-over-year, from $23.0B to $22.6B. This contraction results in a growth score of 29/100.

Leverage

Macys Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 0.50, meaning only $0.50 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 92/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Macys Inc's current ratio of 1.49 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 25/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.
