Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
PFGC receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid company fundamentals, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by soft unit economics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
PFGC has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2026 versus FY2025, moderate earnings growth (+5.6%) is partially offset by soft cash generation (FCF margin 1.5%), moderate revenue growth (+7.2%), soft profitability (net margin 0.5%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
PFGC's financial health is supported by strong cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation of $1.0B (1.5% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is PFGC's strongest growth driver at +46.2% FY2026 versus FY2025 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (+7.2%, moderate) and earnings growth (+5.6%, moderate) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 102.1% and approximately 98.7% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 4.24% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

★★★★★
PFGC generates approximately $119 of gross profit, $13 of operating income, and $15 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2026 results. Weak margins explain the 2-star rating, with moderate cash conversion and soft capital efficiency.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 26.04%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
PFGC has a large-cap, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while valuation that is moderately attractive rather than deeply discounted.
