Upturn Advisory & Investor View for NEWT

09/25/2026: NEWT (1-star) is currently NOT-A-BUY. Pass it for now.

NewtekOne, Inc. is a bank holding company that differentiates itself by bundling financial products, such as SBA loans, with essential business and technology services for small and medium-sized enterprises. The company's recent transition to a bank holding model represents a strategic shift designed to lower funding costs and improve profitability through a stable deposit base. While this integrated approach creates a potential competitive advantage in service breadth, NewtekOne remains sensitive to interest rate volatility and the inherent risks of small-business lending. Investors should closely monitor the company's progress in deposit gathering and the execution of its integrated service model. This stock may suit value-oriented investors willing to navigate the complexities of a financial firm in transition.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

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

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
NEWT has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid earnings growth (+19.0%) and strong cash generation (FCF margin 17.3%) are partially offset by moderate revenue growth (+1.0%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
NEWT's financial health is supported by solid profitability, including gross margin of 75.3% and operating margin of 42.5%. Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is NEWT's strongest growth driver at +136.4% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, earnings growth (+19.0%, solid) is also solid, while revenue growth (+1.0%, moderate) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 57.3% and approximately 86.7% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 5.93% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
NEWT generates approximately $753 of gross profit, $425 of operating income, and $173 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: 24.34%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
NEWT has a high-quality, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while elevated volatility.
