Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

ELTX receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak unit economics, soft quantitative characteristics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

ELTX has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with moderate financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid earnings growth (+23.8%) is partially offset by soft cash generation (FCF margin 0.0%), slightly negative revenue growth (+0.0%), soft profitability (net margin 0.0%).

Financial Health Rating

ELTX's financial health is supported by strong efficiency, including operating-expense and cost-of-revenue discipline (opex 0.0% of revenue). Profitability is weak (1 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

Earnings growth is ELTX's strongest growth driver at +23.8% FY2025 versus FY2024 (solid, 4 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (+0.0%, slightly negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 16.2% and approximately 73.0% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 26.97% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Economic Dimensions

Effective Tax Rate: 0.00%
