Air T, Inc. (AIRT): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Industrials · Conglomerates · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is AIRT undervalued?
At 29.84 (close of 16 Oct 2026), AIRT trades 97% below the GLS average fair value of 897.40. That average comes from 6 models run on the latest filings, and 6 of them land above the current price. Margins of safety over 30% are the exception rather than the rule across the ~7,400 stocks we value each night, so the number earns Air T, Inc. the full Value points in the Wheel Score - and a closer look at what the market is pricing in.
The 6 models disagree widely: Graham Number gives 113.49 while DCF gives 1,613.40. 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 AIRT under Speculative / Distressed - negative earnings or a Piotroski score of 3 or less - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.

| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 1,613.40 | +5307% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 113.49 | +280% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 1,353.83 | +4437% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 591.71 | +1883% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 1,448.98 | +4756% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | - | - | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10%; no value tonight |
| Payback Time | - | - | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself; no value tonight |
| DDM | - | - | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend; no value tonight |

Quality and financial health
Financial health is weak: AIRT passes 3 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 4.6 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 high - ROIC 25.6%, ROE 97.7%, ROA 19.1% - with debt at 2.82 times equity and negative free cash flow. Debt of 2.82 times equity is on the high side for the sector and is worth checking against the cash flow before treating the stock as a long-term hold.
Air T, Inc. pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain. Revenue comes mainly from Overnight Air Cargo 53%, Commercial Jet Engines Inventory 36%, Ground Equipment Sales 7% (quarter Q1 FY2027).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 3 / 9 | ROIC | 25.6% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.6 / 10 | ROE | 97.7% |
| Debt / equity | 2.82 | ROA | 19.1% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -61.9% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 39: No options
AIRT 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" (39 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 72k shares a day on a market cap of $80M, with a beta of 0.28 - 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 | 25 / 25 | 97% margin of safety | |
| Health | 7 / 20 | Piotroski 3/9 | |
| Moat | 7 / 15 | moat 4.6/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 72k shares/day, $80M cap, beta 0.28 |
