American Mutual Fund C (AMFCX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol AMFCX · Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · Fund / Note
Is AMFCX undervalued?
AMFCX closed at 65.27 on 5 Nov 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 46.45. Only 2 of the 9 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 GLS Growth (7.17) and 10 Cap (122.83). 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.
AMFCX looks like a fund, note or preferred share rather than an operating company, so the nightly engine files it under Fund / Note: the valuation models are not built for it, and its Wheel Score is capped at 45.
Nine valuation models for AMFCX
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.

| Lynch | 9.80 | -85% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 7.17 | -89% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 122.83 | +88% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 92.88 | +42% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |

Quality and financial health
American Mutual Fund C scores 6 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that passes the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. There is no GLS Moat score for AMFCX: funds, notes and second share lines get none, and so does a company with fewer than two years of accounts on file. The Moat part of the Wheel Score is zero.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 4.2%, ROE 5.6%, ROA 1.8% - with debt at 0.35 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 0.7%.
The dividend yield is high at 6.16% (payout ratio 83%). A yield this size is often the market's way of pricing a risk to the payout, so the health score and cash flow matter more than usual.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 4.2% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | - / 10 | ROE | 5.6% |
| Debt / equity | 0.35 | ROA | 1.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.7% | Payout ratio | 83% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 17: No options
No options are listed on American Mutual Fund C in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 17, 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 - a day on a market cap of $79.2B, with a beta of 0.70 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that strong.

| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Fails | a fund or note, not a company |

| 4 | Financially healthy | Passes | Piotroski F-score 6 or more out of 9 (a company with no score on file passes) |
| 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 | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
