Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

TBBK receives a 4-star rating, supported by strong unit economics, and solid company fundamentals. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

TBBK has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, moderate growth momentum, and strong ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, moderate earnings growth (+4.9%) and strong cash generation (FCF margin 37.4%) are partially offset by slightly negative revenue growth (-2.8%).

Financial Health Rating

TBBK's financial health is supported by strong profitability, including gross margin of 74.3% and operating margin of 43.9%. Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

Free-cash-flow growth is TBBK's strongest growth driver at +15.8% FY2025 versus FY2024 (solid, 4 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (-2.8%, slightly negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 100.6% and approximately 93.8% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 6.22% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 4.37%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

TBBK generates approximately $743 of gross profit, $439 of operating income, and $374 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong margins, cash conversion, and capital efficiency support the rating.

Economic Dimensions

Effective Tax Rate: 24.69%

Quantitative Style Profile

TBBK has a high-quality, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
