Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 20 weeks running.

The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Ribbon Communications pay? Ribbon Communications Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Ribbon Communications on? Ribbon Communications is on one of our US lists: US tech stocks. [US tech stocks](https://www.sectoralpha.in/us-tech-stocks)

## Is Ribbon Communications profitable? Ribbon Communications Inc. posted a net loss of $26.9 M in the Jun 2026 quarter. Full-year FY25 profit was $39.6 M. That loss is 14.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $11.1 M. 9 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Ribbon Communications make, and is it growing? Ribbon Communications Inc. reported $192 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −12.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 0.0% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $845 M. The last four reported quarters add to $798 M. FY25 revenue was $845 M, +1.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −7.6% on average, against 0.0% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −7.6%, against −0.3% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Ribbon Communications keep? Ribbon Communications Inc.'s operating margin was −4.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 8.3 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −3.8% and 3.2%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −8.3 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −2.7 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Ribbon Communications' profit turning into cash? Ribbon Communications Inc.'s cash-flow history is too short to judge how much of its profit turns into cash. In FY25 it brought in $51.4 M of operating cash against $39.6 M of profit. After $25.3 M of spending on assets, $26.1 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Ribbon Communications' cash go? Ribbon Communications Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $57.1 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 2.3% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $57.1 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Ribbon Communications' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Ribbon Communications Inc.'s P/E is 15.8×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Ribbon Communications business getting better or worse? Ribbon Communications Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Ribbon Communications earn on its capital? Ribbon Communications Inc. earned a ROE of 9% in FY25. That is up from a low of −34% in FY21. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 11.3 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 4.7% net margin and 0.70× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 4.7% net margin × 0.70× asset turnover × 2.70× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 8.9% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −1.5% − 9.8% = −11.3 percentage points. The 9.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The −1.5% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 2.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Ribbon Communications have too much debt? Ribbon Communications Inc. has total debt of $397 M against shareholder equity of $393 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 1.01× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.84 in FY21 to 0.90 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Ribbon Communications shareholding pattern? 5.6% of Ribbon Communications Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 3.7 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Ribbon Communications from balance-sheet trouble? For Ribbon Communications Inc., the Z-score is −0.82. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the danger zone. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of −0.82 is inside the danger zone, so the balance sheet is a real risk. ## How does Ribbon Communications rank in its industry? There is no score against its industry: Ribbon Communications Inc. is not among the largest members shown in this industry comparison for Software - Application. The score ranks a company within its industry: each measure is scored against the other members.
