Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

IAG receives a 4-star rating, supported by strong unit economics, solid company fundamentals, solid quantitative characteristics, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

IAG has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong cash generation (FCF margin 26.6%) and strong revenue growth (+77.8%) are partially offset by negative earnings growth (-17.5%), very low insider ownership of 0.13%.

Financial Health Rating

IAG's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (26.6% of revenue). Overall financial-health metrics support a 4-star score.

Growth Momentum Score

Free-cash-flow growth is IAG's strongest growth driver at +654.6% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, revenue growth (+77.8%, strong) is also strong, while earnings growth (-17.5%, negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 75.6% and approximately 99.8% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.13%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

Top 5 Institutional Investors

Van Eck Associates Corporation 6.50%
FMR Inc 5.49%
Fidelity International Ltd 5.44%
BlackRock Inc 3.18%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 2.84%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

IAG generates approximately $412 of gross profit, $389 of operating income, and $266 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: 24.49%

Quantitative Style Profile

IAG has a high-quality, large-cap, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while elevated volatility.
