Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

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

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
RRC has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, strong growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+147.1%) and strong cash generation (FCF margin 19.7%) are partially offset by modest insider ownership of 1.23%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
RRC's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (19.7% of revenue). Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Earnings growth is RRC's strongest growth driver at +147.1% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). Revenue growth (+27.6%, solid) and free-cash-flow growth (+86.7%, strong) are also constructive, though not equally high across every growth measure.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 104.2% and approximately 98.6% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 1.23% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

★★★★★

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 20.88%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
