Sprouts is using margin expansion and fast cash turnover to fund growth and buybacks without a large liquidity cushion.
By FY2025, cash on hand was only$257M even as operating cash flow reached$716M , so liquidity is coming more from current operations than from stockpiled cash. That matters because the current ratio stayed below 1.0x for two straight years while buybacks continued, a pattern that points to a deliberately tight working-capital model rather than a balance sheet built around large reserves.
