AI Insight: STC Financial Trends
STC's Q1 2026 revenue hit $781M — up 28% year-over-year — but operating cash flow turned negative again, a recurring seasonal pattern that warrants monitoring.
• Revenue grew sharply year-over-year, rising from $602M in Q2 2024 to $797M in Q3 2025, the peak so far.
• Net income improved meaningfully, from $17M in Q2 2024 to $44M in Q3 2025, before easing to $17M in Q1 2026.
• Equity expanded from $1,365M in Q2 2024 to $1,641M in Q4 2025, reflecting steady book-value accumulation.
• Total debt jumped from $446M in Q4 2024 to $647M in Q4 2025, a $201M increase over four quarters.
⚠ Operating cash flow turned negative in Q1 2025 (-$30M) and again in Q1 2026 (-$4M), suggesting persistent seasonal cash burn.
⚠ Debt rising to $647M in Q4 2025 while equity grows more slowly raises leverage questions heading into 2026.
⚠ Net income fell from $36M in Q4 2025 to $17M in Q1 2026 — watch whether sequential softness extends into Q2 2026.
AI Insight: STC Ratio Trends
STC's Q3 2025 peak margins are fading fast — Q1 2026 ROIC collapsed to 5.8%, the weakest quarterly read outside Q1 2025's trough.
• Operating margin swung from 1.0% in Q1 2025 to 7.7% in Q3 2025, then retreated to 3.0% in Q1 2026, showing persistent seasonal weakness in Q1.
• ROIC peaked at 16.6% in Q3 2025 but dropped sharply to 5.8% in Q1 2026 — the steepest single-quarter decline in the series.
• D/E rose from 0.32 in Q4 2024 to 0.39 in Q4 2025, the only two quarters with leverage data, signaling modest balance-sheet deterioration.
• TTM NPM of 4.2% and TTM ROIC of 11.2% remain above Q2 2024 levels of 2.9% and 8.5%, suggesting underlying year-over-year improvement.
⚠ Q1 ROIC has now printed 1.7% (2025) and 5.8% (2026) — confirm whether Q1 seasonality is structural or masking fundamental deterioration.
⚠ D/E crept up to 0.39 in Q4 2025; next reported leverage reading will clarify if debt load continues rising as margins compress.
⚠ Q3 2025 ROE of 12.0% and OpMargin of 7.7% set a high bar — watch whether mid-year 2026 can sustain or exceed that profitability peak.
