Technology · Media & Entertainment · United States · High Growth
Is AENT undervalued?
Alliance Entertainment Holding Corp. (AENT) closed at 4.54 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 7 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 5.23, so the price sits 13% below it. 2 of the 7 models value the shares above the current price. A margin of safety between 10% and 30% is where most of the Sunday Scan candidates come from.
The 7 models disagree widely: DCF gives 0.0182 while GLS Growth gives 15.69. A spread that wide means the average is sensitive to which methods you trust; the model table below shows where each one lands, and the Quote page lets you switch any of them off.
The nightly engine files AENT under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.

| Lynch | 3.72 | -18% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |

Quality and financial health
Financial health is weak: AENT passes 4 of the nine Piotroski tests. Our screens drop the stock at the health rule; a low score is often the reason a stock looks cheap on the valuation models. The GLS Moat score is low at 1.7 out of 10, which says the ten-year record of revenue, earnings, margins and returns on capital has been inconsistent - growth and shocks rather than steady compounding.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 6.2%, ROE 11.2%, ROA 3.3% - with debt at 0.80 times equity and negative free cash flow.
Alliance Entertainment Holding Corp. pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain.
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 6.2% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 1.7 / 10 | ROE | 11.2% |
| Debt / equity | 0.80 | ROA | 3.3% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -1.2% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 35: No options
AENT has no listed options in the nightly snapshot, so there is nothing to sell and the stock cannot be wheeled however good the business; the Wheel Score is capped at 39 and shown as "No options" (35 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 12k shares a day on a market cap of $231M, with a beta of 0.44 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 6 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 18 / 25 | 13% margin of safety | |
| Health | 9 / 20 | Piotroski 4/9 | |
| Moat | 3 / 15 | moat 1.7/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 12k shares/day, $231M cap, beta 0.44 |
