Winston Score History

The full picture

Azimut Holding S.p.A. is an Italian asset management company that helps individuals and businesses invest their money. It offers mutual funds, portfolio management, and financial planning services, mainly to retail and high-net-worth clients. Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Milan, it is one of Italy's largest independent asset managers, meaning it is not owned by a bank.

Azimut makes money by charging fees based on the assets it manages, plus performance fees when its funds beat certain targets. It operates primarily in Italy but has expanded into over 18 countries, including Brazil, Australia, and parts of Asia and the Middle East, giving it a more global footprint than most European peers. Its independence from banks is a competitive advantage, as it avoids conflicts of interest in product recommendations. The main risk is that falling financial markets reduce the value of assets under management, which directly shrinks the fees Azimut collects.

Growth + cash flow

Azimut Holding S.p.A. is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 21%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
