AI Insight: WD Financial Trends
Q4 2025 net loss of $14M breaks a six-quarter profit streak, even as revenue holds near $340M.
• Revenue grew from $271M in Q2 2024 to a peak of $341M in Q4 2024, then oscillated, settling at $301M in Q1 2026.
• Net income collapsed from $45M in Q4 2024 to a loss of $14M in Q4 2025, the only loss in the eight-quarter window.
• Operating cash flow turned sharply negative at $-1,144M in Q1 2026, the worst reading across all eight quarters.
• Equity grew modestly from $1,697M in Q2 2024 to $1,766M in Q3 2025, but has since slipped to $1,720M in Q1 2026.
⚠ Operating cash flow swings are extreme — from $803M in Q4 2025 to $-1,144M in Q1 2026 — signaling volatile capital deployment.
⚠ Net income turning negative in Q4 2025 despite near-peak revenue of $340M points to rising costs or write-downs worth monitoring.
⚠ Equity erosion from $1,766M in Q3 2025 to $1,720M in Q1 2026 warrants attention if net losses persist.
AI Insight: WD Ratio Trends
A deeply negative Q4 2025 dragged TTM margins to multi-period lows, obscuring an otherwise recovering profitability profile.
• OpMargin swung from a peak of 15.3% in Q4 2024 to -5.5% in Q4 2025, signaling a sharp one-quarter reversal.
• Q1 2026 OpMargin recovered to 8.6%, rebounding from Q4 2025's -5.5% trough, suggesting the drag may be transitory.
• ROIC collapsed from 11.9% in Q4 2024 to -4.3% in Q4 2025, then partially recovered to 6.0% in Q1 2026.
• TTM NPM of 5.3% and TTM ROA of 1.1% reflect the full weight of Q4 2025's losses on trailing metrics.
⚠ Q4 2025 produced negative results across all metrics — identifying the root cause is critical to assessing recurrence risk.
⚠ Q1 2025 and Q1 2026 both showed notably weaker margins versus adjacent quarters, suggesting persistent seasonal softness.
⚠ D/E data is absent across all periods, leaving leverage and balance-sheet risk unquantifiable from this dataset.
