---|---|---|---|---|---|
Current ratio | 5.39 | 5.10 | 3.45 | 3.15 | 2.80 |
Quick ratio | 5.10 | 4.77 | 3.18 | 2.88 | 2.52 |
Cash ratio | 3.25 | 2.83 | 1.68 | 1.50 | 1.32 |
The liquidity ratios of Stride Inc. over the observed period demonstrate a consistent improvement, indicating an enhanced capacity to meet short-term obligations.
The current ratio has shown a steady upward trend, increasing from 2.80 on June 30, 2021, to 5.39 on June 30, 2025. This signifies that the company's current assets have become more than five times its current liabilities by mid-2025, reflecting a strong liquidity position. Such an increase suggests effective management of current assets relative to short-term liabilities and possibly a conservative approach to liquidity management.
Similarly, the quick ratio has experienced a notable rise from 2.52 in 2021 to 5.10 in 2025. The quick ratio excludes inventories from current assets, so this growth indicates that Stride Inc.'s most liquid assets—such as receivables and cash—have increased proportionally or more than current liabilities, further emphasizing the firm's robust short-term financial health.
The cash ratio, which measures cash and cash equivalents against current liabilities, also exhibits a positive trend, moving from 1.32 in 2021 to 3.25 in 2025. This suggests the company holds a substantial buffer of cash to cover its short-term liabilities, contributing to its overall liquidity strength and reducing dependence on other current assets for short-term needs.
Overall, the data indicates that Stride Inc.'s liquidity position has strengthened significantly over the analyzed period, with ratios comfortably above one, reflecting a conservative financial stance that provides flexibility and security in meeting short-term obligations.

Cash conversion cycle | days | 83.33 | 83.38 | 88.40 | 81.87 | 79.53 |
The analysis of Stride Inc’s cash conversion cycle (CCC) over the specified period reveals a generally rising trend, with some fluctuations. As of June 30, 2021, the CCC was approximately 79.53 days, which indicates the company took about 80 days to convert its investments in inventory and receivables into cash, net of the payables period. Over the subsequent years, this cycle increased gradually, reaching 81.87 days by June 30, 2022, and further extending to 88.40 days by June 30, 2023. This increase suggests a lengthening in the time it takes for the company to convert its operational inputs into cash receipts, potentially indicating slower inventory turnover, increased receivables collection periods, or delays in payments to suppliers.
Following the peak in June 2023, the CCC experienced a reduction to 83.38 days as of June 30, 2024, and slightly decreased further to 83.33 days by June 30, 2025. Although these values indicate a marginal decline from the peak, they still remain elevated compared to the levels in 2021. The overall pattern suggests some stabilization in the company's working capital management, albeit at higher cycle lengths compared to the earlier years.
In summary, Stride Inc’s cash conversion cycle has experienced notable expansion over the examined period, reflecting longer durations in converting operational investment into cash. The slight reduction in recent years indicates efforts towards improved working capital efficiency, but the cycle remains somewhat extended relative to earlier periods, which could have implications for cash flow management and liquidity strategies.
