Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
BBUC receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid company fundamentals. The rating is constrained by soft unit economics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
BBUC has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, strong growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+102.9%) and strong revenue growth (+234.5%) are partially offset by soft cash generation (FCF margin -1.1%), soft profitability (net margin 0.1%), modest insider ownership of 2.63%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
BBUC's financial health is supported by moderate efficiency, including operating-expense and cost-of-revenue discipline (opex 4.2% of revenue). Overall financial-health metrics support a 3-star score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Revenue growth is BBUC's strongest growth driver at +234.5% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). Earnings growth (+102.9%, strong) and free-cash-flow growth (+23.0%, solid) are also constructive, though not equally high across every growth measure.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 90.7% and approximately 5.0% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 2.63% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
BBUC generates approximately $193 of gross profit, $151 of operating income, and $-11 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong cash conversion and healthy margins support the rating, although capital efficiency remains below the highest tier.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 19.38%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
BBUC has a Value-Oriented profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while elevated volatility.
