Winston Score History

The full picture

Insight Enterprises is a technology solutions company that helps businesses buy and set up hardware, software, and cloud services. Its main customers are mid-sized and large companies, governments, and schools across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. The company acts as a middleman and advisor, connecting clients with products from major tech brands like Microsoft, Cisco, and Dell.

Insight makes money by selling hardware and software at a markup, earning fees for IT services, and collecting commissions from technology vendors. It operates in over 20 countries but generates most of its revenue in the United States, with annual sales around $8–9 billion. Its competitive edge comes from long-term client relationships and the ability to bundle products with consulting and managed services, though its thin margins leave it exposed to pricing pressure from larger rivals like CDW and direct competition from cloud vendors cutting out the middleman entirely.

Growth + cash flow

Insight Enterprises is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 15%. 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.
