Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
SUNC receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid quantitative characteristics, and solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak unit economics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
SUNC has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with moderate financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid revenue growth (+11.1%) is partially offset by negative earnings growth (-100.6%), soft cash generation (FCF margin 2.4%), weak profitability (net margin -0.0%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
SUNC's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (2.4% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is SUNC's strongest growth driver at +200.0% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, revenue growth (+11.1%, solid) is also solid, while earnings growth (-100.6%, negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 79.2% and approximately 100.0% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.05%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

FMR Inc 9.66%
Blackstone Inc 5.84%
The Goldman Sachs Group Inc 5.37%
Assenagon Asset Management SA 4.10%
Two Sigma Investments LLC 3.60%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
SUNC generates approximately $83 of gross profit, $37 of operating income, and $24 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Weak margins explain the 1-star rating, with weak cash conversion and soft capital efficiency.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 9.85%

Quantitative Style Profile

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