Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

EGAN receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid unit economics, and solid company fundamentals. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum, and limited analyst upside.

Company Fundamentals

EGAN has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2026 versus FY2025, strong cash generation (FCF margin 22.5%) is partially offset by negative earnings growth (-72.5%), moderate revenue growth (+3.1%), soft profitability (net margin 9.7%).

Financial Health Rating

EGAN's financial health is supported by solid liquidity, including working-capital and asset support (WC/assets 29.0%). Profitability is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

Free-cash-flow growth is EGAN's strongest growth driver at +337.1% FY2026 versus FY2025 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (+3.1%, moderate) and earnings growth (-72.5%, negative) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 57.3% and approximately 52.6% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 42.40% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

EGAN generates approximately $734 of gross profit, $87 of operating income, and $225 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2026 results. Strong margins, cash conversion, and capital efficiency support the rating.

Economic Dimensions

Effective Tax Rate: 17.78%
