Aldel Financial II Inc. (ALDF): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol ALDF · Financial Services · Shell Companies · United States · Class A ordinary shares · Growth
ALDF is Aldel Financial II Inc.'s Class A ordinary shares. The classes own the same business, share the same earnings report and trade within a few cents of each other; what differs is mainly the vote each share carries - the company's annual report sets out the voting rights.
Is ALDF undervalued?
ALDF closed at 10.75 on 5 Nov 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 7.99. Only 3 of the 8 models that produced a value sit above the price. By our models the shares are priced well beyond what the filed earnings, cash flow and book value support; the "below fair value" Wheel Trade Filter keeps names like this under 70.
There is a wide gap between DCF (0.0149) and GLS Growth (16.51). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.
Ranked against every other company we cover, ALDF is clearly faster-growing than it is cheap, so the nightly engine files it under Growth (value score 10, growth score 85, out of 100).
Nine valuation models for ALDF
Each model turns the latest filed numbers into a value per share; the GLS fair value is the simple average of the ones that produce a positive number. The last two rows are shown for reference and never enter the average. The Quote page lets you switch any model off and add your own margin of safety.

|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 0.0149 | -100% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 0.2271 | -98% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 15.43 | +44% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 6.74 | -37% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 16.51 | +54% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 7.39 | -31% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 14.63 | +36% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |

Quality and financial health
Aldel Financial II Inc. scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. A GLS Moat score of 4.1/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 3.8%, ROE 3.8%, ROA 3.8% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 2.6%.
Aldel Financial II Inc. 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 10/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 3.8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.1 / 10 | ROE | 3.8% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | 3.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 2.6% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 16: No options
No options are listed on Aldel Financial II Inc. in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 16, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at 1k shares a day on a market cap of $321M, with a beta of 0.03 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | no listed options |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Passes | Profitable over the last twelve months - not a speculative stock, fund or note |
| 3 | Below fair value | Fails | trades 35% above our fair value |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 4/9 (under 6) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 6 | No serious red flags | Passes | Red Flags score 60 or more out of 100 (earnings, margins, debt, analysts, filings and price checked the same way for every stock) |
| 7 | A premium worth selling | Fails | no implied volatility |
| 8 | Big enough | Fails | market cap $321M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |

| Premium | Weak | no option data | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 4.1/10 | |
