AI Insight: ACI Financial Trends

Q1 2026 net loss of $481M and negative operating income of $507M crater equity to $1,836M — a sharp deterioration from any prior quarter.

Revenue grew modestly year-over-year in comparable periods: Q2 2025 $24,881M vs Q2 2024 $24,265M, and Q1 2026 $20,252M vs Q1 2025 $18,800M.

Operating income collapsed to -$507M in Q1 2026 from $276M in Q1 2025, the first negative operating result in the observed period.

Total debt surged from $7,820M in Q1 2025 to $9,013M in Q4 2025 and $8,947M in Q1 2026, while equity fell from $3,386M to $1,836M.

Operating cash flow in Q1 2026 was $717M, remaining positive despite the net loss, suggesting non-cash charges drove the headline loss.

Equity eroded $1,550M in two quarters (Q4 2025 to Q1 2026) — continued losses risk approaching a technically insolvent balance sheet.

Debt jumped $1,193M from Q1 2025 to Q4 2025; with rising leverage and falling equity, interest coverage warrants close scrutiny.

Nature of Q1 2026 charges driving the $481M net loss — one-time vs. recurring — is critical to assessing whether deterioration continues.

AI Insight: ACI Ratio Trends

A single quarter — Q1 2026 — flipped every profitability metric deeply negative, with ROE collapsing to -104.7% and D/E surging to 4.87x.

Operating margin turned sharply negative at -2.5% in Q1 2026, versus +1.5% in Q1 2025 — a 400bp year-over-year deterioration.

ROIC swung from +9.8% in Q1 2025 to -18.8% in Q1 2026, the first negative reading in the entire dataset.

D/E ratio jumped from 2.31x in Q1 2025 to 4.87x in Q1 2026, nearly doubling leverage in four quarters.

Excluding Q1 2026, seasonal Q4 peaks (Q4 2024: OpMargin 2.8%; Q4 2025: 2.6%) show underlying operating rhythm was relatively stable.

Q1 2026 net margin hit -2.4% versus +0.9% a year ago — confirm whether a one-off charge or structural deterioration drove the swing.

D/E at 4.87x is the highest in the dataset; monitor whether debt is refinanced or equity is rebuilt to restore leverage to prior 2.3–2.6x range.

TTM metrics mirror Q1 2026 distortion — watch next quarter's print to gauge if profitability recovers toward historical seasonal norms.
