Rhea AI NWBI FY2025 2026-05-07

Balance-sheet expansion lifted reported revenue, but returns on assets and equity show the larger franchise is earning less efficiently per dollar over time.

From FY2023 to FY2025, reported revenue rose from $587.9M to $749.7M, yet ROA slipped from 0.9% to 0.8% and ROE from 8.7% to 6.7%. That combination says the bank added scale faster than it improved earnings power on each asset and equity dollar over this stretch.

FY2025 operating cash flow of $153.4M ran ahead of net income of $126.0M, so accounting profit was backed by cash generation. With capex at just $11.6M, little of that cash was absorbed by physical reinvestment or maintenance spending.

The balance sheet remains heavily liability-funded, with $14.9B of liabilities backed by $1.9B of equity in FY2025. Cash of $233.6M covers only a small slice of that funding stack, so day-to-day liquidity depends more on the broader liability base than on idle cash.
