Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

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

Company Fundamentals

CYD has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+61.8%) and solid cash generation (FCF margin 8.6%) are partially offset by soft profitability (net margin 2.2%).

Financial Health Rating

CYD's financial health is supported by strong cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation of $2.1B (8.6% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

Free-cash-flow growth is CYD's strongest growth driver at +782.6% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). Revenue growth (+25.4%, solid) and earnings growth (+61.8%, strong) are also constructive, though not equally high across every growth measure.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 24.0% and approximately 30.4% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 68.88% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

CYD generates approximately $165 of gross profit, $26 of operating income, and $86 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: 28.91%

Quantitative Style Profile

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