Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
AMPL receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid company fundamentals, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by soft unit economics, and limited analyst upside.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
AMPL has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, solid growth momentum, and strong ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, moderate earnings growth (+6.1%) and solid cash generation (FCF margin 8.2%) are partially offset by weak profitability (net margin -25.8%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
AMPL's financial health is supported by solid liquidity, including working-capital and asset support (WC/assets 21.8%). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is AMPL's strongest growth driver at +140.5% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, revenue growth (+14.7%, solid) is also solid, while earnings growth (+6.1%, moderate) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 80.4% and approximately 91.4% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 5.14% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 3.15%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
AMPL generates approximately $740 of gross profit, $-280 of operating income, and $82 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Operating losses explain the 2-star rating, with weak cash conversion and weak capital efficiency.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: -3.76% (Tax Credit)

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
AMPL has a liquid profile. Valuation that is moderately attractive rather than deeply discounted is the primary drawback, while elevated volatility.
