Hi! I read Unity Software’s latest annual report (fiscal 2025). Here is what stands out:
Good So-so Weak
Are sales growing?
+2.0%
Only a little. Sales grew 2.0% last year.
Does it make a profit?
−21.8%
No. It lost money last year.
Does profit turn into cash?
21.8%
Yes. 21.8% of sales ends up as free cash.
How healthy are the accounts?
5 / 9
Mixed. It passes 5 of 9 health tests.
Rules of thumb on reported numbers. A starting point, not a recommendation.
About these figures. Unity held no short-term investments at the end of 2023 (its 10-K tags them as zero), so its cash and short-term investments that year are its cash alone.
Is it selling more, and how much does it keep?
KIRA · Unity Software had $1.8B of revenue in fiscal 2025, up 2.0% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +19.1% a year on average. Its operating margin was −25.9%, up 15.8 pts: of every 100 in sales, about −26 is left after running the business.
In plain words: Revenue is all the money customers paid. The margins show how many cents of each dollar of sales are left over at each step: after making the product (gross), after running the business (operating) and after everything, tax included (net).

How much cash comes in, and where does it go?
KIRA · Free cash flow was $404M in fiscal 2025, 21.8% of revenue.
Cash from operations minus capital spending.
In plain words: Profit on paper is not the same as cash in the bank. Free cash flow is the cash left after paying to run and maintain the business: the money it can hand back to shareholders, save or invest.

KIRA · Unity Software returned $0.0M to shareholders in fiscal 2025, 0% of free cash flow. The diluted share count rose 6.3%.
In plain words: Companies hand cash back in two ways: dividends (cash paid to shareholders) and buybacks (buying back their own shares, so each remaining share owns a bigger slice).

Open-market purchases and sales by officers, directors and 10% owners, from Form 4 filings. “Plan” marks trades under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 plan.
In plain words: Insiders are the people who run or own a big part of the company. Buying with their own money can signal confidence; selling often has personal reasons, like taxes or diversifying.
