Upturn Advisory & Investor View for PAX

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

Patria Investments is a prominent alternative asset manager specializing in private equity, infrastructure, credit, and real estate, primarily within Latin America. The firm benefits from deep local relationships and a robust model that produces stable fee-based earnings, making it an attractive option for those seeking emerging market exposure with dividend potential. While its ability to scale across products remains a key growth story, investors must weigh this against inherent regional political, currency, and economic risks. The firm is well-positioned, though its performance remains sensitive to regional volatility and global interest rate trends. Investors should monitor AUM growth and the success of newer credit and real estate platforms.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

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

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
PAX has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid earnings growth (+19.1%) and strong cash generation (FCF margin 67.3%) are partially offset by moderate revenue growth (+2.6%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
PAX's financial health is supported by solid profitability, including gross margin of 96.2% and operating margin of 34.2%. Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is PAX's strongest growth driver at +87.6% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, earnings growth (+19.1%, solid) is also solid, while revenue growth (+2.6%, moderate) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 63.3% and approximately 88.8% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 5.68% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Pertento Partners LLP 3.35%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
PAX generates approximately $962 of gross profit, $342 of operating income, and $673 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: 1.84%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
PAX has a high-quality, liquid, relatively low-volatility profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
