Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
SHMD receives a 2-star rating, reflecting soft or weak scores across the available pillars. The rating is constrained by soft unit economics, soft analyst coverage, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
SHMD has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with soft financial health, moderate growth momentum, and moderate ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid earnings growth (+18.9%) is partially offset by weak cash generation (FCF margin -9.0%), moderate revenue growth (+5.7%), weak profitability (net margin -106.1%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
SHMD's financial health is soft, with the relatively strongest area being moderate efficiency, including operating-expense and cost-of-revenue discipline (opex 37.4% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 2-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is SHMD's strongest growth driver at +25.1% FY2025 versus FY2024 (solid, 4 stars). Revenue growth (+5.7%, moderate) and earnings growth (+18.9%, solid) are also constructive, though not equally high across every growth measure.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 11.1% (soft) and 20.3% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable (soft). Insider ownership of 60.44% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 0.06%

Quantitative Style Profile
