Upturn Advisory & Investor View for EFXT

11/13/2026: EFXT (4-star) is currently NOT-A-BUY. Pass it for now.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
EFXT receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid company fundamentals, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
EFXT has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+113.8%) and solid cash generation (FCF margin 8.9%) are partially offset by soft profitability (net margin 2.5%), very low insider ownership of 0.46%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
EFXT's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (8.9% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Earnings growth is EFXT's strongest growth driver at +113.8% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, revenue growth (+13.8%, solid) is also solid, while free-cash-flow growth (-23.6%, negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 75.3% and approximately 99.5% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.46%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

Royal Bank of Canada 6.99%
Canoe Financial LP 3.85%
Mackenzie Investments 3.13%
Hillsdale Investment Management Inc. 2.96%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
EFXT generates approximately $217 of gross profit, $121 of operating income, and $89 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Soft margins and solid cash conversion support a 3-star rating, while capital efficiency is soft.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 60.74%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
EFXT has a liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while elevated volatility.
