Upturn Advisory & Investor View for DT

09/28/2026: DT (2-star) has a low Upturn Star Rating. Not recommended to BUY.

Dynatrace is a specialized provider of cloud observability and security software, known for its AI-driven platform that automates complex enterprise IT management. Its main strength lies in its ability to pinpoint root causes in massive, multi-cloud environments, which is highly valued by large-scale enterprises. The primary investment story centers on the shift toward digital transformation and the increasing necessity for intelligent automated infrastructure monitoring. Investors face risks including stiff competition from cloud-infrastructure giants and potential valuation volatility inherent in the SaaS sector. Dynatrace is best suited for growth-oriented investors and should be monitored for customer expansion trends and product-led revenue growth.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
DT receives a 4-star rating, supported by solid unit economics, solid company fundamentals, and strong analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum, and limited analyst upside.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
DT has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2026 versus FY2025, strong cash generation (FCF margin 26.1%) and solid revenue growth (+18.8%) are partially offset by negative earnings growth (-66.4%), soft profitability (net margin 8.1%), very low insider ownership of 0.58%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
DT's financial health is supported by solid liquidity, including working-capital and asset support (WC/assets 12.6%). Profitability is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is DT's strongest growth driver at +21.7% FY2026 versus FY2025 (solid, 4 stars). By comparison, revenue growth (+18.8%, solid) is also solid, while earnings growth (-66.4%, negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 108.2% and approximately 98.9% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.58%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

Top 5 Institutional Investors

BlackRock Inc 11.50%
Vanguard Portfolio Management, LLC 5.70%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 4.63%
Pictet Asset Manangement SA 4.42%
Wellington Management Company LLP 3.99%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
DT generates approximately $816 of gross profit, $131 of operating income, and $261 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2026 results. Strong margins and strong cash conversion support the rating, although capital efficiency remains soft.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 45.73%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
DT has a large-cap, liquid, relatively low-volatility profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while soft valuation.
