Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

SHEL receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid quantitative characteristics, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum, and limited analyst upside.

Company Fundamentals

SHEL has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with moderate financial health, moderate growth momentum, and moderate ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid earnings growth (+10.8%) and solid cash generation (FCF margin 9.0%) are partially offset by negative revenue growth (-6.1%), soft profitability (net margin 6.7%), very low insider ownership of 0.01%.

Financial Health Rating

SHEL's financial health is supported by strong cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation of $23.9B (9.0% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

Earnings growth is SHEL's strongest growth driver at +10.8% FY2025 versus FY2024 (solid, 4 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (-6.1%, negative) and free-cash-flow growth (-31.8%, negative) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 13.4% and approximately 95.1% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.01%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

SHEL generates approximately $159 of gross profit, $103 of operating income, and $90 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: 39.11%

Quantitative Style Profile

SHEL has a high-quality, large-cap, liquid, relatively low-volatility profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
