Ares Management scores 57 out of 100 on Intrinsiqq's quality score, a weighted blend of 6 metrics each scored 0 to 100, which rates it a mixed business on these measures.

What does Ares Management's quality score measure?+

Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs revenue and free-cash-flow growth, operating margins, return on invested capital, change in share count, and balance-sheet strength, each computed from ARES's SEC filings rather than opinion or sentiment.

How profitable is Ares Management?+

Ares Management runs a net margin of about 12.0%. Revenue has grown at roughly 22.1% a year recently. High, stable margins usually point to pricing power and operating discipline.
