Why This Score

UPST scores 26.3 on the Conservative profile, blending a fundamental score (80% weight, emphasizing quality and stability (84% of fundamental weight)) with a machine-learning signal (20% weight) trained on 82 features across 30 years of data.

Risk Factors
  • Elevated valuation at 53.3x earnings โ€” requires sustained growth to justify the premium.
  • Above-average volatility (19.4%) may not suit conservative risk tolerance.
  • Elevated leverage (D/E 2.32) increases financial risk in a rising-rate environment.

Moderate penalties (-4.4 points) reflect identified risk factors. The overall score balances these against the stock's fundamental strengths.
